    pimp my gun (beta)

    Its an AKM but I modified it to make it tactical
  3. I think it partly is because of the bad job done distributing physical games to the stores in time. So people buy the game where they can get it, digitally.

    Eagle Wing (Spoiler alert!)

    Try flying slow, high, and use the autopilot to stabilize the helicopter if you feel like you are loosing control. When using the autopilot, turn the helicopter with the X and C keys. I often use it when engaging targets, that way you can fully concentrate on the targets.

    Dragon Rising has been released

    I would like the "Fire on my lead" command in Arma too. A neat little command that simplifies ambushes a little bit. It has to be said, the Arma 2 command system, while powerful, is extremely little intuitive and beginner friendly right now. While its a complex game, it doesn't need to be complex in the wrong way.

    The (un)Official Freetrack Users Q&A Thread

    I usually turn the float zone off when using TIR, you may find that helpful. The infantry part(if you choose to use it there, many use it exclusively for vehicles where its more useful) takes a day getting used to, and in my experience, it will make you a bit slower in close quarters battle no matter how used you are to it. But hey, immersion right? :)

    Javelin Use and Hard Difficulty

    Some times I wonder how hard it actually would have been to make a tag-the-target mechanic similar to using the laser marker to aim artillery in the game, for the Javelin. A Javelin does not auto target, it just doesn't. It just seems such a pointless design flaw in the game, why was it done this way? Even COD got the tag system ... o-ZhEFB3vg4 *slightly offtopic rant over, please forgive me.
  8. The Arma 2 units will work in FLIR, but they will be all white/all black texture like the FLIR is in Dragon Rising, without the fancy heat spots etc of Arrowhead and VBS 2. According to previous talk on the subject.

    What's the best racing sim

    Shift is pretty different from the former NFS games though. (but still not a hard-core simulator) I wish the NFS series could go back to what the first game was: realistic(for the time) driving, traffic and police. I also really liked NFS Porsche 2000/unleashed.

    Claymores

    Its able too use various victim initiated modes, but not legally. AFAIK the US has refused to modify the mines so that it can only be command fired.

    Where are the Christmas Trees?

    It wouldn't be a surprise if we expected it, now would it? :)

    Pause blur stays forever!

    I sometimes get this too, but its usually fixed by pressing pause and un-pause again.

    The Cause 2 (SP campaign Idea WIP)

    Indoor combat is a nice change of pace.
  16. How many MBs approximately will the PLA ACEX module be? Looks very sexy :D
  17. 3Pgm4aTeFG8 You have to remove everything in the URL except for the tag :). Looks great.
  18. Definably Mafia on first for me. Thief 2 was amazing. And still is. Anyway, such list will always be too personal to have much real value in them.

    It looks like a warfilm!! (Video of CMSF game)

    A question, how does the game handle wounded? That would be a big part of combat logistics.
  20. Sahrani and Rahmadi is only changed by name in ACE, no actual differences as far as I know.
  21. This provides some insight. http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Features_of_ACE2 You could also try searching this topic for whatever you want to know.
