heres some answers to the questions youll have leading from do buildings collapse. Shoot soldier in legs they are crippelled and can only crawl Shoot soldier in arms their gun waves around. Head shots tend to be one round kills Torso tends to be double or even triple tap. Density of material you are behind provides varying cover from fire penetration. Hiding behind a wooden fence when enemy knows you are there is no longer advisable. Bullets can and do ricochet of street walls but do not expect to bounce machine gun fire off one wall around a corner and hit anything. You might do it but probably not. Yes you can shoot drivers and indeed gunners such as M113, and car gunners. Particular pasengers can be shot. (useful for assasination mision scenarios) Yes a hit to fuel tank causes a gas leak. But no; one shot to the gas tank does not make it explode ala silly holywood movie crap. It takes a bit more than that to blow up a gas tank. Yes shooting the rear rotor on helicopters leads to blackhawk down style incedent. Shooting gun on tank remoes ability of gun to elevate, shooting tracks causes inability of that particular track to move (driving in circles) Destroying both tracks leads to mobility kills. Shooting Front body of a tank wounds and kills drivers while leaving the commander and guner OK. Shoot turret and the oposite happens. Have not checked tyres on cars but in OFP shooting tyres lead to a flat presume its the same in ArmA anyone knows what engine the AMRA USES?

i was hoping the same thing as this kid, about a month ago, and i was dissapointed, but when i thought about it, it is pretty good idea not to enlist it, look at ragdoll, the game dsnt has any, decreases lag, adds more realism...in other game, you shoot a guy, he dies in rag doll, and then he lands lk a soldier hands at sides and all that. this is pretty good. ww2OL game uses havok engine to recognise the collision between objects, so anyone know waht engine ARMA uses?

ive seen teammates taking cover behind trees, fences, and the bullets piercing through wooden wences lk metal slugs throught cardboard. pretty good, adds realism just lk in real life, you know that you would not stand behind a garbage can in a middle of some ak 47 firefight, youd take it behind an armored car or a damn thick wall. (= hope that helped.

hey guys, i have just been thinking about armA while i waot for my new AMD 64 3800+ 1 gig Of ram and 7800GT videocard. so my question was .. i have played AmericasArmy and cs, with AA being my fav game..and i begain to think that if i shoot a soldier in armA into the leg... will the bullet hole be exactly where i got him or it will be rendered.. as in it detects the hit point on the leg, and it automatically puts a hole and blood in a random position on the leg. =D ..just asking. if the soldiers gets hit in his left side of the brain.. will the bullet hole be exactly rendered there, or will it be just a premade hitpoint on the head..yeah so thats what im trying to get at..because in some screen shots i saw prerendered and real ones.. lol just asking and trying to kill the boredom while i wait for my new pc.. lol and while wer on the topic, can u tell me iff ill be able to run game on high setings, soem low some medium, or everything low etc.. lol thank you for your time. PS if i shoot and the hole appears on the head wherever, they should make it so that if i shoot some one in a head, lets say temple or mouth, the hole should be there. or i shoot some one in the kneecap, the hole should be there. just a request for more interest. lol love the game. another PS LOL im just full of ideas, id be cool to shoot through the cars wondows to get a headshot lol or even a helicopter. but it shouldnt be simple. wind and elevation should play a role also as bohemia said that each bullet is rendered on its own. cars and helis have gas tanks, and like in real life if u hit a gas tanks it goes BOOMM! lol just give me ur opinions

awesome, no grass, and to all of you people that say that this makes it look like OFP, no it doesnt, because it makes it more realistic, you see a bush, you know you have to rush there and take cover, or the enemy will see oyu, instead of, ill just lie down here, and im good. =D also. i have AMD 64 3800+ 1 gig of ram and 256meg video card, tell me how many fps will i get with running no grass island. please. also how many fps will i get if i run a 128 m video card on the same no grass island. thanks you people. just wanted to know how much no grass improves fps.

ughh, seen some screenies where a soldier smokes...any chance for marijuanna? btw if any of you guys played IL-2 then you know that of you get hit in the cock-pit (hehe) you see the bullet holes, id be great to see it on armA or GAME2 by any chance.

hmmm, add GIGN, maybe an easteregg model 1337 from cs source (hate that game, love armA) and also add SAS and urban riot control.

add some things from the new king kong movie, scenery, elevation, ravines, bugs etc =D. oh and if you need suggestions, pm me at msn, punksk8er132@yahoo.com sorry if im not allowed to post my email here.

they could cut it down on the big bombings of airplanes and helicopters, and leave it for the grenades and grenade launchers, ittl add more immerse gameplay... walk into a town, see a building...shoot a rocket..and you have a sniping nest with bricks everywhere lol...btw any of you guys know what game i was talking about.. i looked throught all of my game informed magazines and i could not find it.

Great topic, i really would like to see the nuke from OFP, im sure it is possible to do and with the new engine it will look so good, that i will sh't my pants. (=

whoahhh i feel like you guys with a bigger team can become as rich as microsoft with their halo. hahaha, you can even create your own game based on the armA engine. im glad to hear about this mod, PM me if you want me to test, and i have also a lot of ideas, so if you need me, and need some ideas, just pm me =D

i dont get it, what so good about navy sealss, like, whats the hype. please explain.. i wanna be hyped also =D

oh MY GOD the pimp mobile/chick magnet from need for speed is coming to armA, hahahahz imagine all the chicks i get woot

yeah, its the stupid aim addiction.. hate it. lol....i mean ahahhaah oh and i never seen a screen with a rocket launcher in armA, or a movie...ive seen tanks. also how the buildings destroy in a WTC kind of thing..thers not enough pile up..ive seen a screen shot from some game, and when a soldoer shot a shurch tower with a m16 grenade launcher, the church tower blew up in its higher top just where he shot it realistically, and the physics were on the brocs and it was wery reall.. no he has a sniping place in the church. so heres how it went. m16grenadelauncher+church+big boom with individual bricks flying everywhere=sniping place or camping place... i like that idea. it is as if the designers built the building brick by brick in the software, instead lk most games wall by fall, alllowing to destroy parts of buildings eralistically. what do you guys think

This will do until i wait for the US release and my new pc. very good

you dont like my mod?

ehh still pretty cool..got any more ppl? shooting trees? what ahppsn etc lk all of that stuff lol

hey guysm i have a mod for you to do... i can see it now a jiant nascar or some other race around the whole map or different event where you have to get from point a to b etc. =DD or a bus driver mod lol , a suicide bomber mod, where you run around, and then enter a bus with ppl and BOOM lol jk. but still u can make a mod with races, or plane races.. etc.. maybe a car salesman mod or A MOD which will MAKE teh gAME play similar to TEST DRIVE UNLIMITED.AHHhhhh teh gigantic map lots of vehicles ..and eyecandy =DDD

whoahh so those are tracers, ive seen them in iraq war videos. cz and bf2 dont have tracers, and i never knew that armA has tracers.....is it lk and option, or a key that you press like the silencer? and are there any screens of tracers in armA. ive seen teh green adn red fire flash thingys that you shoot into the air,.... cznt rememebr the name right now, just had it a while ago. lol
