I couldn't imagine a t shirt being of any use to me at all either. Somethings really anti social about wearing a shirt with soldiers staring down the barrel of a gun, especially with whats going on over the past few years. I'd never wear it out. Metal boxed for me protect the content within, all my other cardboard game boxes get trashed in no time.

<Bump> So 38.48% of people have difficulty with the problem (so far) seriously though.... if there is enough support for tools to make it a bit easier perhaps BIS could help us out if need be? As far as map tools go?

Hmm probably a bad description on my part. I'm pinned down, I could mark a location, but it could be any position say from say 350 degrees north through say 300 degrees north west, from a particular point. We know that he can't get a shot onto the area past these points, but say in this area that we know he is, there are a heap of rocks, and shrubs etc. Putting a heap of markers makes everything cluttered. And if you got a helicopter comming in to do a run it can make it even more difficult to tell him where to come in from. As people don't like comprehending words they like a ground map. Think of it as designating a pie 'slice' to look out for. Sometimes I wish i could remove my old markers from the map too which are no longer relevant. Eventually I do manage to track down a sniper. But the thread is intended more of, do you have problems with this as well, and are there some tools that could be made that are perfectly okay which would help people more describing their situations on the battlefield via the map view.

Yeah, but my problem is, often I havn't any idea where the sniper is, except for a general location because I don't have a high powered rifle scope, while the sniper knows where I am, and can fire, which means I'm not popping my head back out anytime soon! And often there are no Binoculars available!

Hi all. Been getting back into the Armed Assault business again. And reliving my old problems as before. Designating to my team mates where I beleive a sniper is. I might even be unawhere if there is a solution to this problem. Problem is I mark an area with a placemark, but it's relitively inaccurate, Doesn't tell much. I can pop my head out from behind an object, to be fired on by a sniper, who could only possibly fire on me from a location where he can see me. Accurately describing this to team mates has been a major problem for me for ages. I was wondering if there was a want for a tool where you could scribe a line on the map for your team mates to see, showing the line behind which you beleive the sniper was firing from. <edit>Or any other solutions that are existant because I find the place mark not descriptive enough. <edit> Cheers.

hahaha hey leave valiants alone hemi 265 goodness lol

Ever since I've downloaded the demo and seen the adverts for the beer, it's been making me smirk somewhat. I havn't asked any other Aussies yet, but I think we're all find it somewhat amusing. I wonder what the story is behind the name. For all those who don't live in Australia, this is what a Bogan is... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bogan http://www.bogan.com.au/ Essentially a bogan is a stereotype like an American 'Hick', or otherwise. Gets around in flanallette shirts, thinks mullets rock, Drinks a particular style beer and drives a particular model of car that they think are the pinnacle of automotive excellence. If any of you have a third party downloader, look up 'nobody likes a bogan', or 'Bloke - by Chris Franklin' You'll soon get the idea

When you try to crawl underneath the vines, you end up crawling over them. I suppose you already know this but it's a bit wiered!

Get a logitech G7 it's an invaluable mouse for OPFP. Especially with aiming. You can adjust the tracking speed at a click of a finger. G5 if you don't want to move out of last century and have a fetish for unravelling cords.

Can't find this anywhere when I go into team play i pick my role and go into the game, often i get shot as soon as i enter the map. I am then returned to the map screen, often unable to select a role nor a base to spawn at. whats more i can't escape out of the game which means i have to alt tab out and force close armed assault from windows and restart it. can't ask anyone whilst in there either cuz it doesn't permit typing at that screen?

When are you moderators going to ban people that continually use offensive language. Some parents do not appreciate their children frequenting these forums, and won't be buying the game for their children if they are aware this is the sort of stuff allowed in Official forums? Don't want my nephew asking me what a 'Fag' is or 'WTF' means thank-you-very-much! Grow up or get off the forum.

I want a real doll which does the same as what chippers icon does in the Special edition. ok, I'm probably not going to get that. Just hope 505 gets some cool ideas off us.

Its much more likely to do with a technicality. An Agreements probably been signed, and It's subject to 505's own publishing criteria. But this is probably the only place to vent frustration. Which is more or less futile so there's no point bothering. *remembers the people speculating during January & February this year that it wouldn't be out in H1, but between Jan & Feb 2007* Eitherway I'm sure 505 are aware of the chrismas rush etc but They obviously have their own reasons.

Actually I think a discount for TIR4 has some merit... SIMHQ.com had one for TIR for several months. Natural point has got a monopology on the product so it charges too - however mass publicity going out in a SE game pack means that many more gamers using, and recommending it's product. The fact Natural point in the U.S doesn't offer a more reasonable pricing is why I don't buy it, because once I go through all the bloody hastle of getting it shipped to australia it just aint worth it! It's just a slip of paper or whatever, if you don't want it, throw it in the bin with the wrapping paper, you can't say thats something you can't do?
