Just the right balance between sim and game for me
sparks50 replied to monoRAIL's topic in TAKE ON HELICOPTERS - GENERAL
I have the same experience, Its the right mix of challenge and playability. Its also great to have proper story driven missions. Even though I love the hardcore sims like the DCS games, I tend to get bored with them after a while. -
Repeating verbal comments / criticism
sparks50 replied to Karmahero's topic in TAKE ON HELICOPTERS - GENERAL
For me its the other way around, Im all over the place when landing(with a rough 30 % chance of landing on the skyscraper), and aside for the occasional insult, my passengers doesnt seem to be too bothered with their scheduled death ^^ -
Remember this video? Still the best. HlA-b7jR0mg But the "graphics" wasn't as good back then :p

Rolling the throttle to off in the shutdown procedure tutorial
sparks50 posted a topic in TAKE ON HELICOPTERS - GENERAL
I cannot figure this out. I'm at step 4 in the tutorial and I want to turn the throttle off, but when I look at the throttle on the left side, it only gives me an option to turn the throttle to full, which fails my tutorial. Where am I wrong? -

TrackIR 4 pro doesn't work
sparks50 replied to zaGURUinzaSKY's topic in TAKE ON HELICOPTERS - TROUBLESHOOTING
I hope its ok that I post my question in your thread. Is there a way to set up a smooth zoom on the TrackIR? It moves my head around by default, and I have assigned Z+ and - to zoom in and out, but this is either 100% or nothing, when all I need is a slight zoom to read the instruments. Ive been trying to assigning it to different types of zoom but no big success. -
How to Play Music Over VON?
sparks50 replied to 160thSOAR's topic in ARMA 2 & OA - QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
Depending on your sound drivers you can turn up/on stereo mix in Windows 7(what you hear gets sent out on net) at right click lower left speakers on desktop, recording devices, right click on white area to show disabled devices. You might want to turn your game audio down. -
The beta is set to come out October 4th according to the website.

Its primarly a multiplayer game. Ive only played the first few levels but so far I have only gotten some cutscenes inbetween the multiplayer maps filled with bots, where you can command an AI squad around.

I think in most cases it helps to go the Project Reality route of rewarding teamplay directly to encourage teamwork in public servers. I've been playing the campaign for a few hours and it certainly is very challenging on hero difficulty. And the bots do what I tell them to.

New NASA moon photos show landing sites, footprints etc
sparks50 replied to PELHAM's topic in OFFTOPIC
Yes. I wonder how the moon surface will look like 10 years after it has been colonized (if at all). No wind, there would be tracks/trials all over the place, and where there Isn't, you would be the first man alive to step on that specific place. Until someone brings a giant snowcannon and ruins it ofcourse. -
Couldn't launch, did the UE redist file. Then it launched me to the server-browser where I couldn't see any servers, so I exited and downloaded some custom server files. Now I can see the servers, and I join the first one I see. Crash to desktop.

I'd rather have a dev with a bad accent, than some slick PR guy who cant/wont answer the more technical questions. -
Like I told you on another forum, beta patches have been frequent lately indicating that a new patch is not far away. http://www.arma2.com/beta-patch.php

Id rather they use perfectly fine existing content like the backpack than wasting time on making a similar one from ground up just for the principle of it.

To every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. I don't know specifically how the recoil acts on this gun though.

A question to the Devs, How long have you all been working on Arma 3?
sparks50 replied to BobcatBob's topic in ARMA 3 - GENERAL
A dev team consists of people with different tasks, for example someone producing art assets may start working on a new project earlier while programmers are still working on a older project. -
Reminds me of the WIC storyline, armies hidden in container ships :)
