lightspeed_aust 681 Posted October 20, 2019 Good news - I made a big push on Aurora this weekend and I'm into testing now. Maybe a week or so and it will be out! 4 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dachs 14 Posted October 29, 2019 Hey, thats absolutely fantastic news! Me and the guys just scheduled another LAN meet for SEP 23, and your GR missions have become a key ingredient in our meetups 🙂 We played through them all once so far, except Cold Steam and Aurora, and plan to re visit as many of them as we can fit in, for a second run through this time around. Thanks for making them, and we are for sure looking forward to Aurora! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lightspeed_aust 681 Posted November 4, 2019 Thanks Dachs. Out of interest, how do you find level of difficulty for coop. What settings you using? I was planning to reduce slightly the armor protection to vanilla Arma so you can't take quite as much damage. I would then also reduce ai numbers slightly to account for this change. Thoughts?

lightspeed_aust 681 Posted November 4, 2019 Here it is - the classic Aurora night mission where the Ghosts are tasked with destroying a downed stealth drone.

dachs 14 Posted November 4, 2019 Well, I'm sort of ashamed to admit I've edited them slightly due to demands from the guys, so we have respawn available in all missions. Also in the start area of every mission, I've placed an arsenal box, as the guys really like their Niarm guns, and that was the easiest way to please everyone. About us, I'm the only one who plays Arma, outside our LAN meetups, so we're pretty far from being MILSIM, as you might imagine. With that in mind, I think the balance is pretty good as is really. If you're carefull and plan the attack, there is a good chance to get out on top and unscathed, whereas if you pick off a couple of badguys in an uncoordinated fashion (as often happens with us), the AI will punish you. And, with the current number of AI, every player is pretty much guaranteed to have something to do/shoot at during the mission. On the other hand, I guess you're proposed changes would promote a more carefull and even slower style of play, which could be a good thing. That is certainly what makes them so damn cool to play for me, as a singleplayer with AI Team, in their original form without respawn and arsenal. You really have to be carefull, to make it to the end! Server settings: we have AI skill at 1.0 and Accuracy (or is it Precision, I forget?) at 0.35 I find those settings results in some pretty good firefights, without too many one shot kills. No AI addons used for the time being. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lightspeed_aust 681 Posted November 4, 2019 Ah cool, edit as you will. That's the beauty of Arma, customisation. Sounds like you get the right level of difficulty. I think you'll enjoy this mission, a lot more atmospheric than my other missions. Pretty happy with how it turned out, and v true to the original. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Batteriefuhrer 1-288 65 Posted November 6, 2019 Sweet! Finest compliments to the author! You're implementing living classics, thank you, quite a thrilling thing, already killed an absurd amount of time over your content and will certainly kill more - really delighted! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Batteriefuhrer 1-288 65 Posted December 6, 2019 Greets to the author! Just wondering if there is a chance for having a bit more of Desert Siege as a kind of Christmas cheer, please? I'm not pushing, of course, simply interested ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Might be just after New year. In between rock climbing and red dead redemption 2, there's not much mission making time. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
