JdB 151 Posted March 6, 2007 That post is the reason the IPB developers placed the "Report this post to a moderator"-system in their software. Yes, it has bugs, all software that was not designed by God does; Yes, we the "[insert item]-licking" people have faith that BIS will clean up ArmA just like they did with OFP; Yes, BIS likes to keep it's forum clean of rants (which yours is, as the "mature" gamer that you are made so many references to National Socialism and Communism (two complete opposites btw)); And yes, this game can run on top of the line pc's, but has some driver issues with certain pieces of hardware, BIS doesn't make the drivers, the manufacturers do. And who is the 12 year old when you complain about having to follow a few simple rules to ensure this community works smoothly just like society does? All the threads you posted the same message in aren't going to be closed because BIS does not want us reading negative things about ArmA, it's because you violated several simple forum rules, such as no trolling and no cross-posting. And your rant is wrong anyway, as the moderators are in no way connected to BIS, they just do their job to serve the community (for free). "Abusive, racist, sexist, homophobe comments (or any other type of bigots), personal attacks and name calling are not allowed either on the board or through PM's." BIS didn't make OFP great, the mods for it did. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No, Codemasters made OFP great When I was talking about investments, I was being sarcastic and making fun of the people that actually said that in other complain threads... .So that was an inside joke, I thought the quotations gave it away. OFP was great from the beginning because of its awesome campaign. We didn't need no mods to enjoy it. We didn't need internet to enjoy it either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

slingblade20000 0 Posted March 7, 2007 Quick question DeadMeatXM2 since 1.05 you have alot more free time to post? Was curious were you ran off to must have been busy fixing code for the last 10 days. The problem with you attacking people for there comments is really getting quite old dude. I guess when we dont agree with DeadMeatXM2 then those forum members must be stoped. I for one say get big glass of Kool-Aid and relax bro listen to some music and watch all your issues go away.

dm 9 Posted March 7, 2007 Quick question DeadMeatXM2 since 1.05 you have alot more free time to post? Err, if you really must know, I've been bed-bound by illness actually and my laptop (unlike my PC) isnt man enough for ArmA. Was curious were you ran off to must have been busy fixing code for the last 10 days. Why should I be fixing code? I'm an addon maker, I have nothing to do with making the game its self... The problem with you attacking people for there comments is really getting quite old dude. I guess when we dont agree with DeadMeatXM2 then those forum members must be stoped. Err? I've posted about 20 times in the last 5 days, and I'm "attacking" people? Yes, I grow tired of Lucianos self-confessed anti-arma trolling, which I counter (most of the time) with FACTS. I for one say get big glass of Kool-Aid and relax bro listen to some music and watch all your issues go away. Right... You, the new guy, are telling me, the veteran, what to do? I assure you, aside from feeling crap due to my illness, I am as chilled out as it gets. As for kool-aid, well I'm not american,so I dont particularly fancy paying through the nose for a product I dont even want. The point I was making with my previous post was that the CWC campaign, which Luciano claims to have carried OFP, was made by BIS. The Codemasters campaign, Red Hammer, was somewhat of a letdown compared to CWC. Now, if you'll go back to your hole, I'll go back to my addon making. Edit: I wish I could spell...

W0lle 1050 Posted March 7, 2007 LOL That's the sort of reply which let me forget all my troubles. Now I hope he goes back to his hole doubletime so you can make us some decent addons (one day). I hope you get well soon mate. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Luciano 0 Posted March 7, 2007 Ah, the blindness. Its funny how you see my post quickly, while you don't see the posts where people speculate the "publisher" is to blame for ARMA's state. My post was satire in content and was ment to point out the blindness among other posts. And Red Hammer is far better compared to ARMA's lackluster campaign. Sorry, but thats a fact right there.

malick 0 Posted March 7, 2007 The big problem with ArmA currently is : the community. There are countless threads with trolls and rants for/against ArmA and its patches. I've never seen so much of these, and I've been stalking these forums from day 1 of OFP. If you're not satisfied with ArmA, you can either put it aside and not play it, or improve upon it because you are given a wonderful tool. Come on, ladies and gentleman, behave ! Or grow up a little. ArmA and its latest patch have an arm long list of bugs. Not everything works fine. I have to reduce every graphic option in order to play with decent FPS. And guess what ? I live with it ! This place and the whole community will get a lot better once the bunch of trolls that joined the forum during the last month are tired of their own behaviour. Good night, and good luck Malick Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
slingblade20000 0 Posted March 7, 2007 Im really starting to see the pattern, we the lonely subjects should never question the king [bIS, and Forum Members like Deadmeat] its sounds like the old childrens story about the king that had no clothes. Funny there was a meaning to that story but it slips my mind at the moment. Malick yes all us supposed Newbie Trolls have to go we are just the end all to the perfect game. Maybe some of us have been around as long as you have been here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dm 9 Posted March 7, 2007 Quote[/b] ]Right... You, the new guy, are telling me, the veteran, what to do? lol i new that i would get that type of responce from you Deadmeat you proved my point. May as well enjoy myself and put it back in then So what type of addons you making? For OFP or ARMA? Well, if you don't know what the banner in my sig means, then I suggest you do some serious OFP research. I've been working with OFP since day 1, and ArmA is an extension of that where I can put my new skills to the test. I, for one, could care less about all the bitching, moaning, whineing, mud slinging and other shit that goes on in this forum. I dealt with enough of it over the 5 years I worked with OFP, I can't be bothered to do it for another 5 years with ArmA. Because thats how long I see it lasting (assuming Game2 isnt released in the mean time). As for what the future holds - well thats for the future to know, and you lots to wait and see. @ W0lle - thanks man. @ Luciano - well, if they were trolling around the forums as bad as you (and I bothered going into the troubleshooting thread other than clicking on the odd ATI/Intel/Dual Core related thread title that pops up) then maybe I might. Who knows, I might go and "bash" some of them later on too. Its not like I've got much else to do while I'm stuck in bed. [Edit] Im really starting to see the pattern, we the lonely subjects should never question the king Actually, its not about questioning the king - its about the WAY you question the king. Bitch, moan, whine and cry about it, and people (like me) are going to tell you to STFU and/or GTFO. Make constructive posts, and your threads will remain unlocked, you will get decent feedback, and you may even form a decent discussion. Shocking, I know Take Luciano as an example - registered Jan07, already has 3 WL's. I, on the other hand, have been here since Aug 02, and have yet to recieve a single WL. I intend to keep it that way by sticking to the rules, and being constructive in the way I complain about the game - which if you search, you'll find I have, just as much as the next guy.[/Edit] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Haredogg 0 Posted March 7, 2007 In 8 or 9 years of PC gaming I have NEVER returned or even tried to return a game, that streak is now broken thanks to BIS and ArmA. I read something in this months issue of PCGAMER magazine and I wish BIS would of read this message before the release of this $45 beta, It's a wish list aiming at developers and publishers from a respected hard core FPS gamer: DON'T TURN PC GAMERS INTO BETA TESTERS "Complaining about bugs is nothing new, but some publishers have been absurdly negligent in allowing their PC games to be released in abysmal states." This is OBVIOUSLY what they are doing here, they have their own BUG TRACKING system for f**k's sake.... Give me my refund like I've asked so I can move on.

Commander-S.R. 0 Posted March 7, 2007 Well i guess the moderators in here are pretty stiff about the rules so i gues im surposed to post in here instead.... "Tsk Tsk some people boy id tell ya" Anyways just wanted to let the rest of you know tha im just as dissapointed as the lot of you.... primeraly because bis seem's more interested in sucking up to its us contractors then doing a good job for the fans out there... well i guess you can't win em both... usually when i played ofp i got sucked in to game and i was on the battlefield but that is not how it is in arma... and as i posted before i do miss a bit diversity in the military hardware but it just seem's like it's gonna be good old boring u.s. arsenal again So so sad seem's to me that there are so much more interesting military hardware out there then what old us has to offer... And yet again naval warfare has been neclected kind of ironic as the whole story takes place on an small island??? seems to me that bis never did consult with any military agency on making this game i mean even a private in the army or navy would know that the first step of operation on a island would be perfomed by naval forces..... and bis allready made the U.S. Marines with its hardware well most of it anyway only the Marines uses the av-8b harrier as air-surport.. But where is the carrier? and the escort vessels the Lst's and the subs for gathering intel? Let's just hope that bis has a subscription for janes defense weekly and they read it then maybe and only maybe are they gonna release a patch with better military hardware.... P.S. i still miss my mi24 hind and t80 and i dont even wanna start on the bugs then this post will never end. P.P.S. w0lle your tired go too bed!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
W0lle 1050 Posted March 7, 2007 How many times we must repeat this until the last of you understand it, especially you. Contact the dealer from where you purchased the game for a refund. Why should BI pay you a refund, that's f*cking ridiculous. And when you finally got the refund, please ask an Mod here to lock your account - each troll less makes us more happier. Thanks. Edit: @Commander-S.R. If I were you I'd stop the crossposting. As you already noticed the Mods here have teeth - they might be slow sometimes but sooner or later they got you. And to go even further? Who promised you a carrier, who promised you a Hind or a T-80? Nobody - so why you complain here about no one ever talked about? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Luciano 0 Posted March 7, 2007 Didn't BAS split up a long time ago? And how come your the only BAS member on this forum? BAS addons were one of the best for OFP. I don't think I'll be around ARMA much longer to enjoy quality addons, but oh well.... I will support an "OFP" mod for ARMA however. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JdB 151 Posted March 7, 2007 Didn't BAS split up a long time ago? And how come your the only BAS member on this forum? Real lives probably. It's sad, I know BIS tried to simulate the ground forces, and the support they receive from Close Air Support missions. For large airbattles I hear Falcon 4 or IL2 are good, while there are nice games for sub-fanatics as well that will suit you better. Too bad though none have a ground element at all (beyond some targets in flightsims). If BIS had tried to simulate the entire US armed forces and OPFOR than ArmA would have been released around 2012, and every single one of you would be in here whining about that.

W0lle 1050 Posted March 7, 2007 Negative, the game is cool - I like it and it works pretty well here, apart from a few bugs. The Devs? They're cool too and do their best to fix what's need to be fixed. I absolutely believe in them. The Publishers? Maybe cause they 'forced' BI to release a product before it has been tested more extensive. You are just one of the many Trolls which appear with every new game bashing the Devs for Bugs, just to disappear later and move on to the next game. Even with my pink BI glasses I see there are bugs that needs to be fixed asap, but what you're doing is not giving constructive feedback, you're just flooding the forums with your ranting.

Did you not even read anything I wrote before you started categorizing me? "in 8 or 9 years of PC gaming I've never returned a PC game" and you're saying I run around each time a game is release complaining about it... pfft whatever. Quote[/b] ]but what you're doing is not giving constructive feedback, you're just flooding the forums with your ranting Why should I waste my time writing reports, taking screen shots and filing them into the BTS when I could instead be enjoying a game instead of beta testing it, If I knew this was a paid beta test I would of avoided it at all costs, If I want in a beta I'll check out fileplanet.com every now and than.

Commander-S.R. 0 Posted March 7, 2007 Well who said anything about the game not being cool? well yes it is cool but at this stage its just ofp repacked with some pro's and con's this game could be so much more and it should with its retail price taken into consideration "expensive" and it surely is a nice island to be a criminal on there is no police to be seen anywhere??
