    Yeaah..I'd be afraid if I had IT covering my rear....everything has its positives and its negatives. "They float, they all float! And when your down hear with me You'll float too!"[Penny Wise]

    Whilst not in the hand, the gun is still probably 'attatched' to the body. That happened in OFP. Not a problem at all really. Saves having a seperate item on the map. It does seem a bit odd that if you want to take the dead guys rifle that you would place your old rifle in the dead guys hand though.

    Fabulous flying & firing machines in ArmA?

    From a helicopter? I'd guess something like 1/1.5 meters. Someone will problably go find a picture of civilian sky divers jumping out of a huge helicopter now, has usual . This differs from army to army. The brittish don't parachute from helis at all afaik. The ukrainians make their first real jump in training from a helicopter. The pilot can parachute from the Mi-24 and i know it has happened in Chechnya. Do we brits not jump from Helis then? Also how the hell does the pilot eject from a heli with out getting cut to ribbons by the blades? Does the whole cockpit get 'ejected' away from the rest of the vehicle (like in James Bond:Golden Eye(he ejects from a tiger))? Or does the the pilot leave the cockpit and run in the back and the jump out of the door? Â

    @CsonkaPityu Your military might be in bad shape...but at least your choppers look pretty when painted as some kind of large bird. @ricnunes Sounds good to me. If the OpFor are Russian, what is the Russian MBT at this point in time? Â is it the T80? @metallicAL AH-64 is an 'Apache', a 'Cobra' is an AH-1. (sorry to pick you up on this ) But yes your right, there will, or should be, a rival counterpart

    @Ti0n3r Thats a hell of a lot of vehicles! I asume thats diferent versions of the same vehicle (eg, UH60 + MG and UH60 + FFAR = 2 vehicles) rather than 50 totally different vehicle clases... Also; @Heatseeker I would have thought theres a Hind in it. It's the best atack chopper the old soviet union had. And if the OpFor in ArmA are Russian theyd probably have one, or if they arn't russian then they could definetly buy an old 'surplus' one from somewere, don't you think? Off topic: What is the optimal jump height?

    Lol, c'mon everyone. Â Give the guy a break. Â I know you're just joshin', but trying to speak a second language can really make you self-conscious about how you sound in front of native speakers of the language. indeed. I have great respect for any one who can talk more than one language. I my self strugle with just one! but really, listen to him, he says 3 months left of development. I don't know wether to laugh or cry!

    hmmm... are the head shaped that way or is that a photo mapped over the head? What i mean is, can we put our own faces into ArmA as we can with OFP?

    E3 Press Coverage

    Wow! Â I guess i resurected this thread, eh? So, did you show Game2 at E3? Also do you have an official project title for it, or can we still call it Game2? [EDIT:] Never mind, i found a big NO Here

    ...hmm, I think that it is William. But it could indeed be another soldier, that is assuming there are more than two US soldiers on the island (ie. Will and Frank).

    They (BIS) also state that the game has 3 months of development left. I can't remember at what point this is mentioned, guess you'll have to listen to the whole thing

    ArmA Progress Updates

    All, not sure if youve seen this one yet. It's from E3. E3 vid from ofp.info If you listen to the questions and replies over the background din, you'll notice that the BIS guy says ArmA has '3 months' of development left! I can't remember at what point this is mentioned, i think it's after half way through. 3 more months!! God damn it!

    Dynamic Campaigns

    What do you class as real? If you mean what you can see or hear of touch, then reality is just electrical signals interpreted by your brain.

    Dynamic Campaigns

    Strange. Have you altered anything? Try downloading the whole thing again, it works fine for me. (i do get an message when saving, but it still works.)

    I thought the same while i was reading it. Â Â Yeah, me too. Guys, when ArmA does come out, why not start up an unoficial compotion to recreate the 'Photos' seen in the Blog as best we can!? ...or maybe not. I know I'll ry it out any way. Also, whats all this talk about May 10?

    I wonder what rank Armstrong is now? Think He'll be incharge of forces on Sarah? Also that blog entry makes him sound like a right idiot!

    graphics in game

    Dont bother with other games. Every game i've played since owning OFP has fallen short of my expectations. I had Doom3, got fed up with that in a week. CoD2, was useless after only a few days. Brothers in Arms came close to being great games, but sure enough they also lost theire apeal. Sure they may look good and be full of action and fancy effects, but thats it. In a week you've finished the game and there's never any atraction to go back to it. OFP is still as good today as it was then, even with out mods and fancy addons. The trees in CWC were not too good, i have to agree. Just a few flat polygons crosed over each other. But then the trees Resistance on Nogova were much better. I'm sure that ArmAs trees will be even better again. Pluss, don't they blow around in the wind?

    Hmm, if only we could figure out what time zone he is in...we might be able to figure out the island location..... EDIT: Never mind. I just read the blog again: Apparently it’s an island in the Atlantic Ocean..

    Yeah, Will, tell about how you got to the island. By plane or ship? Â Prehaps they flew the whole task force in... Although, i'd like to see the Northeners or the Southerners...or even the civilian population. Â All we've seen are a couple of US troops (staticly) running about the place. I'd like to see what I can shoot at when i set my virtual foot on the island. Also looking at the faces of Will and his pals, i don't think we'll be able to put our own custom faces in this game. Shame. (Be funny to have some kind of "make your own bloke" thing, like in "Sims2" or "The Movies". Â Emagine that)
