    ArmA is just ... disappointing

    Absolutely no need to pick on me Major Fubar, as I said already, I was not the one who's promised that the 'both sides' will be treated equally, and that all further 'fanboy' and 'whiner' flamings will be punished. The fact is that the 'whiners' flaming was done, it was reported to the mods, and the offender was just warned thru the PM, so he later changed the 'incriminated' word. And as I said, if there would be an oposite case (a 'fanboy' flaming), there would be no friendly PM warning or whatever, but a +1WL in a blink of an eye and some more (PR). You've somewhere just paraphrased Placebo; "these forums are not a democracy", and I totally agree. But, who makes them such? You know, from a high horse is a wide view ... A typical mod's hiding paravan used again ,,, why you just don't quit the sherade and tell me (with a new box or something) to STFU.

    Separate editing forums - was it a good idea?

    From a custumer's e.g. market rule standpoint is logical that with such approach you're soon out of business. @ofpforum - it would me more logical and above all polite if you would use 'complained' instead of 'whined' word, but ,,, suit yourself. And, I think it's good that the editing forums are 'on their own', far away from all this 'general' BS discussions.

    Brought the game again

    Just browse ADDONS & MODS: DISCUSSION section, there's many such treads which would help you. For starters go here: http://www.flashpoint1985.com/download/index3.html and patch your game to v1.96 so you can later use all the other goodies (mods, addons ...). If you need more detail help about the mods, addons and stuff, you can PM me and I'll help you if I can.

    Automatic Fire problems...

    You meant you want them to fire in bursts, yes? Unfortunately this is a 'malfunction' inside JAM3, that the AI don't/can't fire in bursts, only a player can, but this is really not a big deal, and I think there's no way to control/change this, only and maybe if you mess with config or something, which is way out of my territory

    OFP - Birthday - 6 Years

    It's (becamed) a classic and it will be always a place in my heart for it, and I became sick(boy) when I even here in this topic read about this darn ArmA!

    back to OFP!

    Check this: http://andrew.nf/OFP/BedtimeReading/modfolders.htm and for those who wants to pimp up the OFP there's quite a few similar threads here, just browse a bit and you'll find them. Personally I recommend ECP backed with some visual and playgame enhancements (dxdll, modul sky, nature pack, some of the Sanctuary's anims pack ... )

    ArmA is just ... disappointing

    seba!!!   Easy my friend, if you'll go on with such kind of broad elaboration of ArmA flaws, even if only with a game design related ones, you'll end up writing a book   *and you'll earn a title of an uber whiner from the subjects like that one above* I bow to your willingness and readyness to make such broad explanations. Dead on mate, and I'm looking forward to it. @Vilas - Question: do you have the same problems also with the other games on that screwed-up-not-correctly-assembled-overheated-not-enough-powerful-whatnot system of yours? (don't need to answer (to me) because I think I know the answer, but you could enlighten with the answer those others which are contantly persuading you that it's your PC (to blame), not a game) EDIT: as I see 4 IN 1 has changed his 'whiners' word into a 'guys' word. Obviously he's been warned or something (but not punished) by the mods about it. So much about the Major Fubar's words in this topic a few pages behind that "I will treat any calling someone a whiner exactly the same as calling someone a fanboy: flaming", I'm not naive anymore; this will NEVER happen here.

    ArmA is just ... disappointing

    Totally understand you 456820 (and Average Joe); after a god knows how many years (six or seven I think) I've played Deux Ex again and now I'm playing Black & White, and I have exsactly the same feelings as quoted above. One good thing from this ArmA ordeal for me(us) after all; I've begun to play the good ol' bugless (<- the key ?? ) quality games and I have a same blast with them as then if not even more, and I have so many great games in stock to re-play that I don't think I'll miss ArmA that soon.

    And what about that "whiners" BS mate? Will those which will call the others a whiner for saying they don't like the game be punished aswell? If you check this thread I'm sure you'll find that 'whiner' word earlier and more often than a 'fanboy' word (in fact this word was a reacton/defence on that 'whiners' calling/flaming). And ekhm, to stay on-topic; can't complaint (anymore) cuz I did the only wise thing momentarily and in such case I think; I put the game on ice till the 'ultimate' patch, and it's sad that a (certain) game players/buyers most to do this not to completely loose their nerves on the game. And I just can't imagine a disappointment with the game of the players/buyers which are not a members/part of this community (they don't know - don't wait patiently on all these mighty patches). Ah yes, one more thing (and not a complaint really); it always maked me laughing when I saw the destroyed tanks burning like a piles of old dry wooden pallets.

    @Vilas - I really do understand your pain, but I think you should take this problem of yours into Troubleshooting section, I think there your problem have more chances to receive some helpful answers than here. No you were not contradicted to yourself. You've just tried to explain some valid things to some one(s), and to make a valid point (but this, alas, is mission impossible, they don't read (or don't understand) what's written as the response to them), and you are 100% right about the disproportion in the 'equal thretman' of those related topics. If there would be none of those which have nothing to do here in this thread except to provoke the 'whiners', then this thread would have 15 instead of 30 pages.

    climatic changes, what do you think about that?

    Yeah, people all narrowing down to that CO2. But there're also many other things like mentioned above, and freons and all that shit ,,, Some indicators are suggesting that the proccess is already irreversable, and that it can happen that in four-five (300 years) generations all will be over, and I mean GAME OVER for the human kind.

    Ask a moderator about the forum and the rules

    Yes I may, but also that's it, this is where all the further discussion stops. Typical and as I said; swept under the carpet. And you have no ground to clame that "handful of people disagree". And don't hide behind that 'we'. Now you can PR me.

    ARMA Review

    Exsactly. And it's funny and entertaing to see that on every site where the review of the game from that site appears such threads turns into the fanboy rant fests. Hope this will too. Â

    Ask a moderator about the forum and the rules

    And why not sickboy, to disciuss (some - which 'deserves' ) moderating choices in the public!? Sometimes this is necessary. Unless if they're untouchable. And sometimes and in some cases re-routing all such things towards the PMs is nothing by an aliby for the mods e.g. sweeping the dirt under the carpet.

    Ask a moderator about the forum and the rules

    Totally agree. And it's more and more of these in the ArmA section. Again couldn't agree more, and the persons like The-Architect are making it such. And of course yoohoo for the mods giving him a 48h of NOTHING. By now he has maded so many such and similar transgressions on this site that he should be (at least) on four 'boxes! For instance he is the person which flaimbaited me twice ("karantan you knob", "you should blow karantan to show you're really sorry") with no apparent reason; he just jumped into the thread/discussion and insulted me. And what's happened to him? NOTHING. It seems that more rude you're here the more you get protected (from the mods). Sad in the worst meaning of the word.

    Real Life Photography/Photo Editing II - NO IMAGES >100kb

    Wow, sniperuk02, in your profile it says you're seventeen, and you have your own car. And I'm sure you have also a driver's licence for it (in my country before 18 ,,, nono). Now I'm waiting on a picture of your beautiful house (along with your beautiful wife and your beutiful kids infront of it) ... Â

    climatic changes, what do you think about that?

    No, not axsactly this one, but a few pages behind some other video from this 'collection' was presented, and watching it I was sceptical right away (the 'reasons' presented in it, the 'facts/arguments' out of/for those 'reasons', just the way/principle how the video is maked and so on), but when I heard the 'argument' that the super novae are like responsible for the creating of clouds ,,, that moment I was convinced it's a hoax, and I stopped watching it. And I think I'll skip yours also. Btw, why some of these 'documentaries' are not presented on some serious channel like Discovery Channel or somwhere else for that matter?
