4 IN 1 0 Posted November 9, 2009 (edited) The problem of the mighty eight is that there is no MP(if I remember correctly), which is a shame because you can only dream of playing with friends all around the world as a crew Edited November 9, 2009 by 4 IN 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Uziyahu--IDF 0 Posted January 8, 2010 (edited) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q9B246jAbKI Carrying out bomber squadron missions has long been a multiplayer experience in World War II Online / Battleground Europe that actually affects the tide of the war. Destroying enemy infrastructure adversely affects their RDP (research, development, production) cycles. Hitting the right place can keep the enemy from rolling out their higher-tech tanks, for example. The reason I am interested in this B17 for ArmA 2 is because I *REALLY* want to enjoy missions like "Overwatch" in Modern Warfare 2. We badly need Puff the Magic Dragon.

Darkhorse 1-6 16 Posted January 8, 2010 (edited) Uhhh.... A B-17 is a WW2 bomber. Not a Vietnam Era AC-47 B-17: AC-47: I think somebody gave you the wrong information. Almost forgot. You incorrectly called the AC-130 "Puff the Magic Dragon". That was the nickname for the AC-47 during the Vietnam War. The name for the AC-130 (Big Brother to the AC-47) is either "Spectre" or "Spooky" (AC-130H and AC1-30U respectively) Edited January 8, 2010 by Darkhorse 1-6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rhodesy77 11 Posted January 8, 2010 i think he understands that mate, but the thing is any progress made on multi turrets with the b17 can be used for other aircraft such as a spooky or puff the magic dragon. so really alot of other future projects are dependent on the outcome of this project.

csj 0 Posted January 8, 2010 The idea of this thread was to simply show what other interesting avenues can be explored with ArmA2 using commands such as attchTo. Don't sit on your hands or hold your breath waiting for things to happen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lant 19 Posted January 8, 2010 Multi-Turret tanks might get us some nice Sci-Fi stuff....Expecially in the Warhammer 40K direction.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

csj 0 Posted January 9, 2010 Can't help with outta ArmA fantasies but some offers of assistance re WWII aircraft etc may get things moving quicker. No point having a bomber without anything to bomb or enemy to harass. Note: I am seriously not interested in let's say borrowed textures or models from other games.
