Shadowclaw 10 Posted June 2, 2009 Hi there :) It's my first posting and i was able to have some runs with Arma 2. First of all it's a huge improvement over Arma 1. I played the first part and really enjoy the second part of the Game I have found some issues regarding Multiplayer. I made some test runs with a friend to be sure. I noticed strange lags once in a while where people and vehicles made a small "warp". Mostly lags are best seen while driving a vehicle. AI seems to have some problems with driving. They are able to get from A to B but with some problems. If a person crosses their path then they not only try to stop but tend to go back and forth and try to aviod it while the "obstacle" is allready long gone. They have some problems when going around corners in citys. They tend to crash against corners of walls. they really have problems driving in citys. I don't know if it's meant to be but when you order your squad to a certain point they tend to no go there but to be somewhere "close" to it. As an example i pointed my team to go to a wall because i wanted them to take cover there and they just stood 20m or so away from it in a really loose formation. There is yet another Multiplayer issue. I am able to join a game when it isn't started and is played from the begining. Trying to join while the game is started or when it's resumed from a certain "save" point then the joining process results in a can't establish connection after some longer wait in the "connecting to host" screen. When i and my friend play a mission from the begining no connection problems arise. ping to my friend is normaly between 15 and 30ms. Medics tend to ignore my "wounded" command. They sometimes come to help but mostly they don't. Have to run more tests on this one. In MP while playing the Map "Supermächte"..i don't know how it is named in english i noticed that i was under fire by an enemy BMP and i just had a rifle but there seems to be no command like "hey i have no chance in killing that thing...send some reinforcment that can kill it. This isn't a bug but more a wish to put such command into the game. I really was crawling in cover and no one came to help even after the X time of using the command "under fire". Hope this posting helps to improve the game even further :) Sorry for my bad english.

Shadowclaw 10 Posted June 2, 2009 (edited) Something i forgot what would be a good addition in the game. Would be nice if you could get some better answers from squad members. If they are in a firefight and can't get to your position when ordered they could say something like "I'm under fire..can't get to you"..or "hey i could use some help over here...i'm beeing supressed"..or for the medic.."hey i'm healing somebody..can't help you atm. but your next" or something similar. Would give more information instead of the "negative" answer. :) If you respawn in MP grenades you used aren't refilled Edited June 2, 2009 by Shadowclaw Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skeptic 10 Posted June 3, 2009 Just observed player warping myself. In Arma1 it was only AI warping, but here I see players too. How about this MP fun? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shadowclaw 10 Posted June 3, 2009 I wonder what is causing those warping effects. It doesn't seem to be because of bad connection. And it doesn't seem to come from to high settings because from bottom to top it's just the same. :j: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
