doveman 7 Posted May 6, 2014 At first I was excited, but then I found out that this didn't translate to the in-game browser. Missions in subfolders in my mpmissions folder should also be in subfolders when in the MP lobby! I'm still happy about this. It's always really annoyed me having to put all the missions in one folder and being unable to organise them, so this is great. It would be even better if this translated into the lobby as well though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

doveman 7 Posted May 7, 2014 It's doesn't? So what does it do? It just means that you can put missions in subfolders under ArmA3\MPMissions (i.e. \CWR2, \ACE), to make it easier to organise them, rather than having hundreds of missions in the MPMissions folder itself. In the lobby it seems they're still just grouped by island but hopefully one day it will at least give an option to list them by the subfolders we've created.

Yep I remember when I tried to organize ACE mod mp missions etc in A2 but folders didn't help to organize. Would help A LOT if mp missions could be organized in folders and it would show like that in game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
danil-ch 165 Posted May 7, 2014 Grenadier's vests are incredibly resistant to explosions. Some mines even can't kill you. This can't be intentional behavior. http://feedback.arma3.com/view.php?id=18728 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

2nd ranger 282 Posted May 7, 2014 (edited) In previous change logs they detailed that grenadier vest should be more resistant to explosions I think this approach is nonsensical. It's not like the grenadier or explosive specialists are wearing bulky vests made of specialist blast-resistant materials. Visually, their vests are almost identical to any other unit. Although they have different classnames and protection values, the NATO rifleman and Grenadier have the same vest. The AAF rifleman, Grenadier and Explosives Specialist vests are also identical, apart from dump bags or pouches. The only unit whose vest differs significantly from other classes of the same faction is the CSAT grenadier. Are grenadiers' and EOD guys' armour plates or kevlar made of some different material that is only slightly more blast-resistant than the other classes use? If so, why isn't everybody just issued the same thing, since it has no significant effect? Units should only be better-protected against explosions if their vests and helmets are sufficiently different from other classes. Otherwise it's like a SAW gunner being more resistant to machine gun rounds. Edited May 7, 2014 by 2nd Ranger Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
enamel 10 Posted May 7, 2014 How long does it normally take for an issue resolved on the feedback tracker to make it into the dev branch? Specifically, I have been tracking this bug for awhile now http://feedback.arma3.com/view.php?id=18098 It was resolved over a month ago now, but have not seen it in the dev branch changelog, nor the patch notes.

Brainbug 10 Posted May 7, 2014 Although they have different classnames and protection values, the NATO rifleman and Grenadier have the same vest. The AAF rifleman, Grenadier and Explosives Specialist vests are also identical, apart from dump bags or pouches. yes, the reason why there are different variants of it are mainly the visual appearance, the grenadier having a bunch of 40mm pouches while the others have the regular pouches for ammo and other stuff. A noteable difference however is the crotch plate that is on some vests and not on others, which will certainly increase the protection, so we could talk about a slightly higher protection value on those vests to simulate that (if it's not already implemented).

maturin 12 Posted May 8, 2014 Sure but to reasonable extent. No vest can save you from that explosion. Neither it can save you from grenade on such distance. Not to say that the grenadier vest 'feature' isn't bullshit, but grenades explosions can be quite survivable up close. If you get one dropped on you, you're supposed to lie down and curl up in ball. I remember watching a documentary where a marine was in a narrow hallway when the insurgents opened up the door and dropped a grenade at his feet. And then another one. He walked away without a scratch. Assuming you don't catch a nasty defensive grenade, the blast isn't that lethal and the fragments are probably tiny enough to be stopped by a vest. It's just that you are statistically likely to catch frag all over you face, neck and limbs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Grenades are rarely immediately lethal - They'll injure you, make you bleed, and stun you and will render you defenceless when the people who them will come charging and shoot you up from up close. However, we don't have all these effects in Arma due to a poor injury and medical system that was not even mentioned in BIS plans. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

However, we don't have all these effects in Arma due to a poor injury and medical system that was not even mentioned in BIS plans. Based on current ArmA3, I would not expect good things out of a more complex medical system. I don't want to need to have a MASH close by if I want to ride a quadbike. I understand the demand to see a more complex gameplay for medics though, I just think that it could be more of a burden than a blessing - you can't depend on AI medics in single player, and not everyone has a whole squad that they can jump into a mission with In summary, I feel like a more complex medical system belongs in an addon.

k0rd 3 Posted May 8, 2014 (edited) Welcome. This is the home for discussion about a multiplayer bug that is seen in both the current dev and stable branches of the game. A general description of the problem is: An empty vehicle's position can desync under certain circumstances, causing players to later see the vehicle many meters in the air (or sometimes, just in another direction) from the "real" position of the vehicle. There is a ticket for this issue here : http://feedback.arma3.com/view.php?id=18328 The effort of this thread is to combine DISCUSSION about this bug into one place, so that other threads are not hijacked. New Information: A reliable repro has been found and BI is hard at work on this bug. Thanks :) Edited May 9, 2014 by k0rd Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
