twan 0 Posted June 24, 2009 (edited) Hey all! Can't wait to get my new comp to run ArmA II, from everything i've read and seen, I am amazed! Also, I heard that the ACE2 Mod (WGL team from OFP and ACE from ArmA) is nearing completion! An interesting little thing I read about ACE2 is that it allows you to take prisoners, HUMAN prisoners! Q: Wdf Twan, you're a noob, what kinda prisoner besides a human would you take, a chicken?!?! A: NO!!! I mean like in Player vs. Player games!!! So ya, this will open up some potentially HILARIOUS gameplay moments assuming that not everybody shoots the prisoner :p I'd surrender for the hell of it because it sounds so fun and the possibilities for sabotage are fairly high! In ACE2, I heard that you can use a special "search" action from the action menu, and can see if they really dropped all of their weapons and equipment or if they are hiding a satchel to go all suicide on your ass. Also, I heard you can knock out prisoners in ACE2 so they don't cause any trouble without killing them! If they have a radio, they can communicate with their team about your forces, you must take away their radio ;) Picture this scenario, I am a Russian who just surrendered to Americans!!! -Twan-*surrenders drops all weapons hits button for hands in the air* -American 1-*searches me and is moved by my fake crying over direct chat VON so he decides not to shoot me* -American 2-"Ok put that Russian, the big ugly one on the left, which should be easy to differentiate from the rest of the Russian squad because the rest of the squad is dashingly handsome neat and well dressed, in the HMMVEE we'll take him back to base with us and laugh at him and stuff!" -American 1-"Ok!!! Get in the HMMVEE you Russian, the dirty and aforementioned ugly one from the left! You are easy to differentiate from the rest of your squad because the rest of your squad is dashingly handsome and also has very nice teeth!" -Twan-*pretend crying over VON to gain sympathy and not get shot* "K I in vehicle now plz plz no shoot me *sob sob* -American 1-"Ok floor it!" -American 2-"Floor it? I though you were driving?!?!?!" -American 1-NOOB you say put this Russian, the aforemention ugly that we established has poor hygeine (unlike the other incredibly beautiful members of the squad) into the HMMVEE you not even driving perhaps YOU are the incompetent one!" -Twan-"LOL!!!!!!" *Speeds off in driver's seat* -American 1-"Look what you did you noob!" -American 2-"NOOOOOOB!!!" -*They shoot each other in anger* -Twan-*Typing to his team after stealing another radio*"LOL guys I escaped and i'm so cool" -Twan-*So excited about awesome Chuck Norris escape that he didn't realize he drove HMMVEE into sea and owning himself* Ya so anyway that's how i'm planning my escape, by pretending to cry over VON area chat so they pity me. Any thoughts on prisoner system!?!?!? Edited June 24, 2009 by Twan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Litos 10 Posted June 24, 2009 That story could be very offensive to russians here... Including me. And Russians would never surrender to Americans, they'll die for their country. But I don't really see much point in taking a prisoner in the game. In real life, interrogating is useful, but in a game people wouldn't care much for their lives if they don't want to have their team busted. But seriously, change your message without mentioning races... That would be much better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SG_Killian 10 Posted June 24, 2009 Perhaps he was differentiating specific Russian soldiers from a group. Telling the other guy to get the big ugly one, amongst the average height, quite dashing group of Russians off to the side. And then to get the one who still had mud on his uniform from running through a puddle earlier, as opposed to the others in the group who are dressed in fine suits. That, or he just has something against Russians. It's an unfortunate effect of Red Dawn still being available for rent, I'm sad to say. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
twan 0 Posted June 24, 2009 (edited) No no I didn't mean it like that! I didn't mean anything by having the two Americans shoot each other either :) I probably should have said, "Get that Russian, the big ugly one on the left!"?? Fixed.

Takko 10 Posted June 24, 2009 And Russians would never surrender to Americans Everybody would surrender to anybody. Well, but russian army is a little different. Because of all the hatred going on inside their own army, they might even surrender to themselves Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thirdup 0 Posted June 24, 2009 Then you'll need the Abu Ghraib mod and the Gitmo mod and the ACLU mod.... Easier to just shoot 'em and be done with it (in the game, too) ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
twan 0 Posted June 24, 2009 (edited) EDIT: ^ =0 So let's get back to prisoner discussion! How many of you would take a prisoner? How many would simply shoot him? Would you take a prisoner and not shoot him if shooting him took points away? Perhaps we would even go so far as to have prisoner exchanges? Assuming the guys exchanging them have no guns :D Edited June 24, 2009 by Twan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

twan 0 Posted June 24, 2009 Ya, or some sort of reward towards mission I read that if driver seat isn't occupied and they get in a vehicle that was supposed to "transport" them to base, your vehicle was basically just jacked :cool: Unless they don't steal it for some odd reason :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

twan 0 Posted June 24, 2009 (edited) At what point did I say Russians are big and ugly? I said in pretext to my scenario "I am playing Russian", it is merely insinuating that I am the big ugly Russian, never have I said that every Russian is ugly, or MAN all Russians in this game are ugly! As this is what my original post contaned, "Take the big ugly Russian prisoner!", when I should have said something like "Take that Russian, the big ugly one on the left!" <--Which is what I meant, or something to that effect, I edited my post. EDIT: Someone already complained and I edited it to be unmistakably clear in what I meant. Example:-American 1-NOOB you say put this Russian, the aforemention ugly that we established has poor hygeine (unlike the other incredibly beautiful members of the squad)<--The RUSSIAN squad that Twan was from, quelling ANY possibility of misunderstanding. Bold: That's the character I am (exaggeration of course) Underlined: To show it has nothing to do with any other Russian. Please discuss the prisoner system.
