I'm hoping that someone here can help me resolve my problem. Basically, I can sometimes get into vehicles, but most of the time I can't. If I try to get in it jumps me right back out. This only happens in Domination it seems, but the thing is that I've played that before a lot, only difference is that I now have a more powerful computer. ArmA also tends to not allow me to get out of them. Also, my weapons won't do any damage to enemy units, and most of the time they can't see me at all, even if I stand right in front of them in daylight. I have a fresh installation of ArmA 2, patched, and OA on Steam. I've played before on UO a while back, with the same mods, only difference is that I just purchased a new computer, so I obviously had to reinstall everything. I can't examine others using the ACE interaction key, and other people can't see me firing, although they can see me. Right now the only thing I can think of is ports, although it sounds very unlikely since everyone can see me move and ACRE works properly. Also, when I abort and go back into slotting I can't switch slots unless I disconnect. Player info shows 0 desync, normal ping and I don't notice any other kind of lag. Sorry if this is a bit confusing, but this problem is quite unusual, and I can't seem to find any information on it through regular googling.

Tracert is 13 hops with around 150 ping. No antivirus on while I'm playing, and HDD in this computer is faster than the old one. This also just happened on a coop game, so not just Domi.

I agree with a previous poster, this game is one of very few that would be worth paying more than 50 bucks for.

I followed the video, run the program as admin, but when i start downloading (everything set the same as in the video) it opens a console, does very few things (downloads nothing) and then says "READY! Please press enter to close" The web browser then reads: Returned Message: Found config! Found action! A window should open displaying the update process progress This was all much easier with just good 'ol zip files or .exe installers

I seem to have soiled myself.

That is so darn cool, keep up the good work :)

I know that, my post was meant as a joke, open the link and enjoy:

Oh my, look what i found on that website, are we going to have those ingame too? :p http://www.esseyepro.com/Asian-Fit-Series_110_category.html

I have a suggestion, i saw here (http://dev-heaven.net/projects/show/ace-mod) that you have "Loading dead into vehicles" This caused me to remember when i was sometimes playing as a medic, and trying to arrange medevacs on some missions. How about being able to load someone wounded, and not having him fall out of the vehicle when he dies, but instead send a message to those in the vehicle that he is dead, or critical, so that medics may attend to him. This would open up a whole new world for medic fans such as me, i could now have a pilot working with me extracting wounded and taking care of them on the way back to the base where perhaps there would be a field hospital where they could be fully healed (so players won't have to wait until they get better :P). I always found that there was a certain atmosphere to helping the wounded and simulating medevacs and such, and now that I'm remembering all this stuff i remember the intensity of getting to someone that was injured before he died, and helping him, or being injured myself and trying to get help. PS. I just watched the features videos, and there was one thing that didn't seem right, the gas mask sound and overlay while in first person. I know this is alpha, but i have a gas mask, and while wearing it it doesn't reduce my FOV that drastically, it's more like blurred edges, and i don't hear myself breathing that loud (although that is kind of cool), only when i run with it on (btw that is also really, really uncomfortable..) do i hear myself breathing almost that loud. This is only meant as a suggestion, not as criticism :) as i think you guys are doing a wonderful job, and it seems many people here don't realize that you're putting your own free time into this.

I was one of few who loved this feature, because of this, i had to organize my loadout, carry only what i had to while other players were complaining when they couldn't take their Barrett with a full mag load and run. In my opinion this balanced the game a lot, and improved teamwork, as i often asked my teammates to carry extra rockets/ammo when i was at my limit.

The same question was asked on another forum, someone responded "When finished." (Can't find the page now :P) So you probably won't get an answer until just before the release.

I have an inactive account there, only reason i'm not playing is lack of a job and therefor money. It's a great game, but when most people get the trial they don't get to play EVE as it should be played, that is, in a Corp, actively doing missions and wars. You don't get into all that so quickly, without having someone you know in a corp that could use tacklers (ships that warp scramble and slow other ships down). It takes about a month or two to really get into this game and that's what most people don't like about it.

Oh, the memories, I used to play these games all day when i was younger!

I've played it a bit, and my first impressions were good, but then within the first 5 minutes of playing, i walked up to a tree for cover, flew up and hit the ground making a nasty sound. The game is alright in SP, i haven't gotten the chance to play Co-Op with anyone yet, i've heard that it's good, but other parts of it, for example the mission editor is no good, at least as far as i can see. The game is a bit arcade for me, as with BF2, so i prefer ArmA/ArmA 2 to this. Also, at first i was hearing from people that the graphics were "awesome" and "groundbreaking" and i was in for a big disappointment, as they aren't comparable to any of the newest games in my opinion. It seems this game has been rushed to the PC and perhaps it would have been best if it had just stayed console. One thing that's for sure is that i'll be buying OA, but nothing more from codemasters.

I'm going on to play some ACE now, i can't bear this anymore!

Voice Over Network :) http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Features_of_ACE2#Crew_Damage Crew Damage Being in a vehicle does NOT protect you anymore from everything going around you. You will not only suffer from bullets being shot directly at you, but also from explosive devices detonating under or next to the vehicle you are in, e.g roadside bombs or direct fire with grenades or shells. This also includes shellshock effects for tank crews and armored vehicles. This will allow killing/injuring crew members of certain lightly protected vehicles without needing to destroy the vehicle Crew Protection This feature simulates the protective gear of crewman and pilots (SoldierXCrew, SoldierXPilot). The corresponding class can stand the following effects better: * Concussion caused by AT launcher fired * Concussion caused by Anti Tank Missile systems fired * Concussion caused by Tanks firing * It doesn't protect you against all other effects like, backblast, overpressure or flying debris.

Yeah, the VON in ArmA 2 is a pain, and i often feel like playing ACE over ArmA 2 or any other game, ArmA 2 without ACE isn't THAT fun in my opinion. Oh, and i played a lot on TG as well, that's probably where i've seen you :P

I can't wait for this mod, but one thing i would like to see is a wider range of wounds if possible, in ArmA 1 99% of the time someone got shot it was just a field dressing and morphine that you needed (sometimes epinephrine). I never got the chance to use any of the other medical supplies, although i sometimes carried them with me (i played a LOT as a field medic). But overall this mod is looking great, and i hope it changes ArmA 2 as much as it changed ArmA 1 gameplay :) Shame no one seems to play ACE anymore.. All the time i see only russians on that one sever always on the same map :O Are there any units of some sort that play ACE?

When i launch my game everything is fine, but once i enter a mission with a vehicle, the sound becomes very distorted, like the game is outputting it way too loud. I can't hear voices because of this or any other sounds. My sound in other games is normal. What could this be?

I turned off 5.1 and put it to 2ch, works now :) Game looks nice BTW

I don't really care about bugs right now, i just want the demo before i buy, bugs can be fixed later.

After i saw the thread below, i decided to make this one since i'm not really sure if ArmA II will come to stores in Iceland. I've called the stores a few times but noone that works in a game store in Iceland seems to know anything about games at all. So here's my question, will ArmA II be available in stores in Iceland or will i have to buy from the UK?

If ArmA 2 will require activation online like Mercenaries 2 did, i will have to reconsider buying it, and probably many others here. For example, i live in Iceland, Internet services are expensive and limited, My internet is usually closed down for the last few days of the month because of bandwith limitations, and it's extremely annoying when you can't play the game you want to because the devs decided to try to protect their product that then got cracked. Conclusion: DON'T put online activation, installation limits or anything alike on ArmA 2, Plus, CD-Keys work fine, don't they, everything gets cracked, no matter how hard you try.

You should thank them. This patch is amazing! I'm very thankful for the fixes, especially the BE one.
