Plaintiff i could not agree more some of these people believe these forums are made for them alone and anything negative that needs to be said is instantly knocked down and threads closed if the content of them is not to their likeing, have now trawled through many closed threads and whenever the argument looks to be swaying in favour of those who think about what they write and not just blindly worship BIS or their methods surprise surprise what happens, this threads closure is not far away Says it all really lol

No downloads for missiles it's all scripts

I'm sorry to go up against and quote a moderator but thats just utter pants, if it's only a few cutscenes and SP mission why is it exclusive?, are they really that good?, have the European purchasers not been waiting longest for content like this? has anybody stated why this is the case, and not just stated it as being so? Expects WL but hey someones gotta ask if no one says

I am sorry but ofpforum and Matt Rochelle messed up their timing, we all see you very cleary thank you. Your posts truly state what lengths people will go to ... it's sad but hey thats life, you seem to post but not read

I was quoteing someone else lol, Â find the original I agree with some of your comments, but i don't think it's quite that bad

So let me get this straight if they never patched the game, or you had to pay for each patch you would be happy? We all know they released the game early for funding reasons but you would be happy with what was a 50% complete product? (at best). Some people who are posting about people not bitching etc should actually read the comments before putting your BIS defensive bubble on and ridiculing perfectly feasable questions and comments, BIS have made mistakes as much as we love them and they will never get anywhere if no critisism is posted and these mistakes not highlighted Anyway i'm off for a game, i do bitch yes but i have also posted many positive posts about ArmA Best regards Bootleg

Where and when? If you thought i was being serious, jokes on you buddy, it was an expression of frustration. Umm why? have you never bitched? do you not find it pathetic that the people who have been waiting longest and paid more money should not get this first, how is denying us the cut-scenes etc fair or exclusive, do you think American consumers will give a damm that they have better cut-scenes?

Can we please talk about the patch, while world politics is great to talk about we need a time and place, this aint it. Anyway about the patch, there are one or two good things in the list but i have to say i am really dissapointed with, no mention of the destroyed chopper MP bug (seriously thinking of quiting ArmA multiplayer if this is not fixed) i mean for christs sake have BIS not played MP and seen this, the amount of people i've seen kicked from servers for firing one or two rounds at a chopper when thats the only way to fix it Also the fact that the cutscenes and A10 mission are exclusive to the US version for now is just utter shite plain and simple, i see no one explaining WHY this is the case, only that it is, i know that no one from BIS has looked in the official mission section of this forum for a long long time and they must have forgotten us beta testing Europeans thought that the campaign was a sick joke and lack of cutscenes was ridiculous, in my opinion they are keeping them from us because we complained so much   This may sound far-fetched but anyone else got a reason? All seems a bit half assed and pandering to the US market to me, have to ask one of my friends in the US what the cut scenes are like, and i paid MORE for my copy of the game, ah well the fix list should be double what we see in the post and i don't think thats askin too much Getting really fed up of this whole chirade

Umm... while i agree the campaign isn't good but is a this constructive way of venting your frustration?

Would get my vote as it's a simple matter of adding 2 new key commands, wheres the harm in that, you would not even have to use it. Good idea mate, glad to see you did a bit of thinking before posting, these kind of ideas nearly always fall on deaf or awkward ears so heres hoping Best Regards Bootleg

I sincerely hope you are right, it would be pointless not to if ArmA has no problems with it, where theres a will there a way Best R's Bootleg

Thanks for the screenies looks good, all you gotta do now is get them on a par with the new VBS2 tracers VBS2 Vid Only jokin  though thats the bench mark we need to get to if we wanna stick two fingers up to BIS and say it's ok we'll finish your game off for ya , you can keep your pencil tracers Also (i don't know if you have done this downloading now) but you should make an example mission with it (i know it's easy but it'll save you answering same q's over and over again), just line up assorted vehicles and weapon crates so people can jump straight in and view. Keep up the good work Best regards Bootleg

First thing that needs to be modded into ArmA is those tracers   if it's possible it should be done with haste, i say modded because i doubt it will be put into any patch (we just have to make do with our pencil laser guns), also that editor looks like it would give back years to a mission designers life Best regards Bootleg

Yeah nice idea, used these loads back in OFP and they were perfect for base building and front lines, got the Abrams all nice and snug.

Hang in there essemm, just imagine when it's fully functional and you can finaly finish it, i have to admit i hardly save mine at all (i find the more i save the more Rambo stares back at me in the mirror) Â

Feel a bit cheated as the only reason this stuff is left out of ArmA is that the military might buy it instead of VBS2 Looks in piggy bank   Â

please don't be joking   best bit of news all week (i know it's only tuesday ). Which weapons you releasing them with, Vilas ones or other?

Thats a novel way of doing it must remember  that There are one or two probs with this version with enemies spawning, MrN knows and is fixing (fixed), should be fine for next version. Yeah i'm looking at that to, it's odd because the script for controlling that choppers quite brutal and also seems to have gotten worse over time which again is wierd cause it's the same script  Best regards Bootleg

Hi TheRocket, done this mission many times and not had that CTD so it may not be mission related, (but there are many many variables so can't know for sure) try and reproduce the CTD if you can so we know for sure. Yes the hummer is meant to be there, if you notice at the start of the campaign there is lots of Armour and vehicles at the airport, some of these (inc hummers) are set to patrol the whole south of the island on guard mode, so if they hear and detect fighting they make a B-Line to help you out and intercept, (can be V useful). Try to check your not getting CTD's on other parts of ArmA ie other missions or multiplayer, otherwise try to reproduce some and see if there is a pattern. Best regards Bootleg

I think orlok could have the best idea for it, it'll be like getting promoted where you then have (like the support options) better choices of mission ( i can see you with your head in your hands going guys gimme a rest  ) but the spontanious missions ie defend or pow could still have a % chance of occuring like you have done ie "We don't have time for your planned mission, our ice cream van has been taken hostage and it's 35 degrees, you have an LZ" It'll help with the overall feel of the mission and keep you on your toes as it will remain random to a degree.

I actually feel quite sorry for the team who created the campaign because they must by now (well ages ago) realise that the campaign was a resounding flop and every time someone new buys the game they get battered on the head in here for it being crap (btw don't think that i'm defending it, it was crap and people have a right to say that at any time). It'll get like a footballer not wanting to read the papers after a bad game  but the difference is footballers get to put it right the next week and usually get critised only once for one performance (unless a string of bad performances occur), Which led me in a nutty, unrelated way to thinking (and wondering) why nothing has really happened on the mission front, i mean ok, one or two bug fixes that means the missions are playable, but why wasn't more content added sooner ie the cutscenes that are being promised in the American version, are they that amazing that the world has to see them all at once. From my point of view (i could be wrong please correct me)tarting up and improving the campaign and single missions  should be the easiest update to apply to this game as it's not essential that everyone has the same version (because it's SP) it's just a matter of getting the content out there for people to use. BUT this argument only holds water on two accounts, one that there is a specific (in the job description) team dedicated to the mission making (not just everyone chipping in at the last minute) then it's a case of finishing the job at hand and not just start on the next campaign for any expansion that may come out as this one deserves to be of a higher quality. Secondly if the mission makers have had to be reassigned to bug fixing   this is obviously more important and will get no argument from me. I really think that the idea of the story and campaign could work it's just not actually a story at the moment and as a result not really a campaign, for me this is the worst part of the game, (the rest is great as i have told everyone i know) and i have only limited myself to a couple of rambling posts on the subject each time i have tried to get into the swing of the campaign. I guess i'm just wanting BIS to be the best at mission making and not rely on the community, so many great ideas came out of OFP from some very talented people and i had hoped that this could be taken on board and used. ArmA is my   at the moment and i don't want to do   to my  , i have faith and will continue to hold it. Best regards Bootleg

The man is right, just need to get your belly dirty to find it, then you can do some real silent     (but get up off your belly to do that  )

Hi puma, the reinforcement of your squad is meant to be done in between missions. Try it after you see the officer to confirm finishing your mission and don't accept a different mission first. That S&D mission is alot of fun as the landscape around that area means you can move your squad into good positions to have a good     and then scoot to the next firing point while keeping your guys undercover Do love the new feature of Armoured support you can move, really gives the impression of sweeping and clearing areas.
