Ahaha! Another thinly veiled dig:

haha almost a joke towards CM

OFP DR won't even have any fixed wing aircraft for players.

Have you ever tried to fly around in a hangar full of planes?

Is that even possible without crashing into next hangar 

[Commando84 0]

if you have a giant hanger then?

with open hanger gates between all hangers :P

Hello All

I'm been fellowing the form for four years. Some how my login got lost.

Now that's out of the way. I remember someone saying that there would by a LHD in ArmA 2. But I only see the PBX & RHIB on the list. What do you think happen?

It is probably a static object and thus not counted as a ship/boat. You can see it in one of the videos and when you work on something that big you don't tend to remove it.

[ScorpionGuard 10]

Do you think they will come out with the personal list next?

*Loves the new forums, but wishes there would be an option to make the color scheme red and white, like in ArmA 2*

Anyways, hearing that some major news will be coming out soon is very good. But on the ArmA 2 website, what's coming next? They've already done the factions, weapons, and vehicles. So now will there be beta tester gameplay videos?

Hi all welcome to the new forums :D,

I seem to recall somebody from BIS (probably Suma) saying that the LHD would be like a static object and not mobile, so technically it will not be a vehicle. Because otherwise we have already seen it in two videos.

Edit: Damn Jakerod beat me to it :p

You guys think the C130 can really transport and/or drop the RHIB boat?

[ScorpionGuard 10]

If the engine is from VBS2. Than yes. The RHIB sould by able to fit in to the C-103J. But will we have Static Parachue also? Are the other?

I hope so. see http://www.specialoperations.com/Navy/RIB/RHIB_Drop/

[ScorpionGuard 10]

Also. How can you get the LHD's to become vehicles? Are do we have to write more code for that to happen?

[ScorpionGuard 10]

Here's what it says on the ArmA 2 Ship/Boat list.

The Naval Special Warfare Rigid Hull Inflatable Boat (RHIB) is a fast, high-buoyancy all weather boat designed to transport a fully equipped team of eight men and three crew members. {It is also fully transportable by C-130 Hercules.} This one is equipped with M2 Machinegun and Mk 19, 40 mm grenade launcher.

[ScorpionGuard 10]

So. Is BIS going to put anything new out today? Are tomorrow? Oh yes. How many players can there by on a server? On ArmA 1. The larges support server I know of was 250 players on MP. Are is it based on the bandwidth of the connection? As before.

I think its rather limited on server performance, but of course lastly also by bandwith.... 1000mbit/s servers a rather rare.....

I wish for some real optimizations regarding dedicated-servers this time (multicore support), otherwise the most server cores are useless :p

And i can't think of anyone buying/renting a dedi today which has less than 4 cores/threads.

I believe the LHD will be a static object in the game.

However, with some code and script, it shouldn't be too much work to make it into a fully drivable "vehicle."

[ScorpionGuard 10]

I noticed. In the weaponry. BIS is not showing grenades, mines, and explosives. I wonder why. Any ideas on this subject anyone?

Back to the LHD. Will we be able to land aircraft on the deck? And will there be a Well Deck?

[Laqueesha 474]

Back to the LHD; will we be able to land aircraft on the deck, and will there be a well deck?

If it is a static object, it will be very stable and it will be very possible to land aircraft on the flight deck.

As for the well deck, I assume it will be included as there are water craft in the game, but nobody knows for sure except BIS.

Thx you for your answers Laqueesha. There aren't any updates for the Web site. Has BIS come to the end of updates? Or. Are we going to receive new video on the site.

Back to the grenades, mines, and explosives. Will it be the same list as in ArmA 1?

Can anyone upload it to youtube, or give me download link, i cant watch live stream here...

Nice Vid. So now everybody can convince himself that climbing over small obstacles is possible. Great. But you can still see those annoying LOD switching.

Thanks SprintJack, I hope DeadFast sees this :) Certainly looks promising.

The ArmA section begins at 9:44 into the video.

Kind Regards walker
