Yes... tis what I'm talking about............ It seems to me (in the eyes of the elitist community) thats its coop or nothing.

I love ArmA and I also love my PvP... this is why I have been playing red orchestra 2 for the last month or so. Maturing CoD/BF players that are getting sick of the mindless fudge will be looking for something with more substance... "ArmA looks great"... if they ever see or hear about it, and if they do and all they see is coop they'll move on... to games like red orchestra. This is not 'the' reason (imo marketing is) but rather one of the factors ArmA is lacking... Human vs Human is so much more than versing AI in every way (and what most migrating players have enjoyed from nearly every other FPS they might be coming from) and ArmA provides very very little of it.

You're not, just wish the masses/sheeple would do so to... imagine the quality we'd get then :)

heh... I played OFP (the real one) for 3 years straight (played very few other games in that time) and all in SP (I had no internet connection in 2001-04), played Armed Assault religiously and played A2 pretty hard up till Red Orchestra 2 came out. Nowhere near enough focus from BI on PvP which is killing this series for me and its seriously heart breaking... and frustrating. Some of the ArmA community try to lift the PvP profile but... off topic, forgive me /end rant And yes the OFP/ArmA series is truly amazing :)

I haven't played it yet... or ArmA2 much for that matter but I like that people do make training mission, thank you for your work. Hope ya get some feedback... but then no news is good news :)

nwah, offended maccas

Not that I've kept it up to date but check the sig. Cerberus 5 is the only real PvP server... every other has fixed missions styles ie Valhalla only or AAS pro mode only etc etc, Cerberus 5 plays all the styles of PvP... DM, TDM, AAS, A&D, C&H, CTF, and more. AAS is PvP.......... Check the bottom of the first post on link below........ http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?t=116263 all those styles are PvP except the 'CO' one of course.

Direct links don't work cause the verify code image fails to load... so go here and enter the verify code. When the Armatech Squad/Armoholic pages loads you'll see buttons for 'ArmA 2'and 'ArmA OA', select 'ArmA 2'. Scroll to the bottom of the page and select 'Faces'

Funny you say that... try give negative feedback here (to be fair BI forums users have grown a slightly thicker skin), but go to armaholic and give negative feedback!... you'll get flamed and ripped apart, retaliate to the abuse and most likely be banned. Hope you get the feedback you need, nice missions too :)

Thanks for you time and effort :) Just fyi your map is not a DM (deathmatch), it would be classed a TvT (team vs team)... maybe stretching you could class it as TDM (team deathmatch). But your map is definitely not a DM, a DM is when everyone is everyone's enemy... no friendlies, no objective just random killing. Refer to this maybe, bottom of first post :) http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?t=116263

Others... ? is that where PvP fits in?

So many factors, brand, configuration etc etc I have Corsair Dominator 1066Mhz 5.5.5.15 (Best in its class) and brought some... OCZ Reaper 1066MHz 5.5.5.15 (second best) The dominator ran quite abit faster than the Reaper according to WEI and ArmA2 (WEI score was .4 difference, thats a fair bit in WEI, I didn't get that much variation from a dual 3.33ghz to a quad 3ghz).... if there is that much difference between top of the line and second... imagine what happens when you buy middle class kingston etc

1. *Must Have* As the other blokes said... buy a video card, Nvidia GTX260 of higher, buy ATI if you want hassles (not baiting just ATI are not as good as Nvidia) 2. Overclock your CPU to 3GHz or higher... your cpu runs at 2.5GHz, getting it over 3GHz wont strain it f'all (Intel® Core™2 Duals & Quads OC very well without after market coolers) ArmA 2 is known to run not so good on cpus under 3GHz no matter how many cores. 3. Update your motherboards chipset and BIOS (download from manufacture) But for you its all in the video card, you cannot run any decent game with on-board graphics. Good Luck sheafromme :)

Just went back to his first post to confirm, my post edited ;) Soz, missed this post. Ya right, and I knew it was but its sooo good I had to :) And thanks for helpin Rissoxx via pm, you'd probably know more than me... you're a good man and I'll leave ya to it:)

OK... Give me the brand and model of ya motherboard and I'll find all the latest drivers that may help.

LOL damn good ain't it Zipper gave me an infraction for it though...

This is true.

Don't bring user made island in to this, they are full of glitches. Try keep it to official content. I hate that I flip BTR90s/LAVs etc on small bushes at full speed. Though -=seany=- is right, if you slow down abit its very very rare, its the samre as the Golden rule on ATVs.... slow down just abit and you wont be walking for ages. (god I sound like a dumb pig *police*)

Go to your motherboards manufacturers site and download the latest chipset drivers for you MB. Have you updated your BIOS? You running SSD or HDD? If HDD go to 'device manager' and select 'properties', select the 'Policies' tab and tick both 'Write-caching' options. I think the mods can handle it :)

Update everything. Had a friend in the same position, updated all of his drivers... - BIOS - Chipset Drivers - Network Card Drivers Lots of people don't update these and are usually running the initial driver set, but doing so can have a huge effect of fluency of your system. I mean who plays ArmA 2 v1.00 now, we all update it religiously :)

Does FDC Servers or DirectNIC have some kinda of relationship or are owned by etc your ISP?

Agreed, One of the first few times on my old clans server I placed 21 satties around main base in 'Evolution' (Armed Assault), got banned, email the head admin and told the truth said I was a twat etc etc (not the "my younger brother...") and was unbanned, six months later I became an admin there. Not to sure on the coop numbers but for us is rather good, its far more like 1 in 5 are smacktards, the other 4 may tk from time to time as they get use to the pace and learn to developing lightning quick recognition for friend or foe but they mix in well... also maybe cause some maps a pure carnage so their able to release the inner tard :P Cheaters using Hax don't ruin the game, they go for max 1 hour (AAS / C&H etc) so there little loss from cheaters, and tards will get their ass whipped by the PvP player anyway so they just disconnect. Truly, 1 spoiler for 4 good players is being pretty modest. :)

Sounds very much like this... Behind Enemy Lines which is also an excellent mission.
