Tyl3r99 41 Posted April 25, 2016 from the very beginning BI said the games engine could support fast roping, just wondered if we will see any implementation? seeing as we have sling loading the rope physics are there :) BI any comments? thanks in advance! :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jackal326 1181 Posted April 25, 2016 Given that it took them 3 sequels to implement rag-doll, expect fast-roping in ArmA 7. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted April 25, 2016 They bring us a 3D editor. They bring us sling loading. They bring us firing from vehicles. They bring us weapon resting and deployment. They bring us a new map and an arsenal for training and welcome newcomers, with an additional little campaign. They worked or are working on overhaul for soldier protection, stamina, audio, mods support, difficulty, mission flow, user interface. They are slowly but surely adding all what the community is asking for. For free. Now, we're sure that they know that a part of the community want fast-roping. Just let them the time to create it, even if it's not for Arma 3. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nobody is talking about VISUAL Update,new Parallax technology, simplifying the action menu, Switching weapons on the move...etc etc. Too damn long to write about it. All their changelogs are fricking massive and it has been like that since alpha but nobody is appreciating it rather just requesting more and more. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

thecanadianvending 24 Posted April 25, 2016 If ACE3 can do it and works well, paid developers can do it pretty easily just saying. No one is arguing that they can't do it. It's just that they have other features that is on the priority list, that everyone is asking for. A lot of people wanted a 3d editor. We have a 3d editor A lot of people wanted FFV. We have FFV A lot of people wanted a sound upgrade, guess what? We got it. The devs aren't stupid, they just have priorities that are bigger than what you think. Like making the expansion. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PuFu 4600 Posted April 26, 2016 If ACE3 can do it and works well, paid developers can do it pretty easily just saying. It is a workaround, not a direct implementation. BI said it numerous times before they want to stay away from scripted solutions, and rightly so. Nope: in jungle area like Tanoa seems to have, it could be pretty useful. Same in urban areas, in which you can't land an helicopter. I not talking about its usefulness, i said it is overrated, and already confirmed as a no. why you wanna drag this further is besides the point. Do you actually think no one reads the (currently defunct) issue tracker? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The devs aren't stupid, they just have priorities that are bigger than what you think. Like making the expansion. FFV is incomplete and full of artificial limitations. Sound update is incomplete, you still have poor sound quality for a lot of stuff. Stuff that should have been in the game day one after being gold: Climb/jump/rappel/etc. Complete and easy to use FFV Remade UI so you can better command and control the AI and the character AI that actually does what you ask them to do under time and logic constrains A lot more game assets, more so for civilian population Animations that do not help you get killed sooner and tons of other technical issues etc. Did they work on the game and offer free updates? Yup, but I wouldn't expect anything less since it puts a lot of faith in the community to add what's missing which is getting real old. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stuff that should have been i personally wanted in the game day one after being gold: Climb/jump/rappel/etc. Complete and easy to use FFV Remade UI so you can better command and control the AI and the character AI that actually does what you ask them to do under time and logic constrains A lot more game assets, more so for civilian population Animations that do not help you get killed sooner and tons of other technical issues bla bla personal wish list ^ etc. Did they work on the game and offer free updates? Yup, but I wouldn't expect anything less since it puts a lot of faith in the community (except me of course, i am just a taker who believes that i deserve continuous and unlimited support for these 60$ i paid 3 years ago, from BI as well as everyone else in this community) to add what's missing which is getting real old (except i'd be the first to go wild if addons would need to be paid for) look, i fixed it for you ^^ Which one, community adding assets and giving life to the series?
