Sunday 16th August 2009 will see the onset of the Charlie Foxtrot Beta Campaign. A beta campaign is a series of battles to test out campaign infrastructure such as Battle selection. In addition to this this new equipment will be tested out. Over the past few weeks we have seen good server stability and we have developed a format which works well. CF-ArmA2 Beta Campaign Battle 1 Information Date: Sunday 16th August 2009 Time: 1700 BST (1200 EST) Slots: 105 (50v50 plus 5 admin) Artillery: Mortars Available These battles are only open to registered Charlie Foxtrot members. To take part, please register with the forums and visit the 'Join Your Army' forums. And so it begins. Happy Hunting.

Our public server is seeing good use, tonight we had a record 95 players on with the server running fine! Even though only about half of the players there were members of Charlie Foxtrot we had some really nice teamwork going on both sides, good job guys! I will repeat the ground rules for all of our new players: Points of Interest: 1) The Server will be admined 2) Team Killers, Vehicle destroyers will be kicked 3) Please join TS for the best experience: ts.cfarma2.com:8768 4) Stick with your teammates 5) If you have problems understanding the Mission just ask in TS/ingame 6) Server settings will be on Veteran Server Paramters - Game length per game 3hr (you dont have to play it all :) ) - Veteran Mode - Vehicles are Limited - Vehicles are on a 5min respawn - Player respawn in 40 seconds Game Parameters/Functionallity We have one large battlespace (1km x 1km) which is the focus of the fighting at any particular time. Points are given to your side for two things, being in the battlespace (called a Zulu on the map) & for killing enemy soldiers. You get 1 point for being in the zone and 10 points for killing an enemy soldier. In addition to this you get 1 point for killing an enemy outside the main Zulu. You also give the enemy 10 points if you die or suicide. These points are added to a team total every 2 minutes. Once 500 points has been reached by one side or other, the zulu moves forward or back depending on whether you were the winner or looser. The counter is reset and you fight in the new zulu. As a result the battle is dynamic. It sounds quite complicated but its not. Stick with your teammates and they will guide you through the game.

If you're into PvP at all Charlie Foxtrot won't disappoint you. I'd like to say that its strongest point is the teamwork though. Personally, I just wonder what those who voted 'Coop missions with a small group of friends' would say if they took their small group of friends and joined Charlie Foxtrot. 'Fricken awesome!' is my guess.

Coops have their place, but I believe that the experience of playing with AND against a huge number of real people just can't be beat. Real people will create an ever-changing combat environment and to overcome the enemy you'll have to use all your wit and cunning. Not just follow the path of least resistance like in so many coops. That is why tourneys like Charlie Foxtrot exist, for those that want to take 'gaming' to the next level. I mean, there's just a great feeling having scouted some enemy position and when calling in arty you're talking to a real person who is firing according to your coords and adjusting fire according to your directions. (Example from IC-ArmA)

There will be a gaming session on the Charlie Foxtrot Server on WEDNESDAY NIGHT (17th June) @ 8GMT/3EST. Various maps will be on the server as well as our Charlie Foxtrot Scrim 1 map which we will be testing for functionality. It will be on the CF teamspeak & the server will be open to the public.
