Hehe... Maybe that's because you buy that crap it only last a month ?

This must be the worst topic on this forum so far....

I use logitech MX1000 cordless laser mouse - I find it the most precise of all the other mices I have tried, including trackball (which I used on my old computer).

Let me tell you a small anecdote, that at first glance might appear offtopic, but it's not - think about it -- Start with a cage containing five monkeys. Inside the cage, hang a banana on a string and place a set of stairs under it. Before long, a monkey will go to the stairs and start to climb towards the banana. As soon as he touches the stairs, spray all of the other monkeys with cold water. After a while, another monkey makes an attempt with the same result -- all the other monkeys are sprayed with cold water. Pretty soon, when another monkey tries to climb the stairs, the other monkeys will try to prevent it. Now, put away the cold water. Remove one monkey from the cage and replace it with a new one. The new monkey sees the banana and wants to climb the stairs. To his surprise and horror, all of the other monkeys attack him. After another attempt and attack, he knows that if he tries to climb the stairs, he will be assaulted. Next, remove another of the original five monkeys and replace it with a new one. The newcomer goes to the stairs and is attacked. The previous newcomer takes part in the punishment with enthusiasm! Likewise, replace a third original monkey with a new one, then a fourth, then the fifth. Every time the newest monkey takes to the stairs, he is attacked. Most of the monkeys that are beating him have no idea why they were not permitted to climb the stairs or why they are participating in the beating of the newest monkey. After replacing all the original monkeys, none of the remaining monkeys have ever been sprayed with cold water. Nevertheless, no monkey ever again approaches the stairs to try for the banana. Why not? Because as far as they know that's the way it's always been done around here. And that, my friends, is how company policy begins -- <table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">http://www.thealders.net

I think theres a thread about it alrdy.. Anyway, I think it sounds interesting, always loved RTS. I am looking forward to Supreme commander, though... looks great

Well, If they attack the US and is caught by the US do you think the the US will hand him over to a government that is seeking help from a terrorists to help run itself? Well - a fair trial like any other modern country would be suitable... Can't believe you are calling a country a "superpower" when it means towards goal and its beliefs are close to Europes - 6 hundreds years ago.

I really have a hard time seeing how one soldier can be an 'unlawful combatant' in a war where he is defending himself and his country from enemy military forces in his own country - when the attackers are lawful combatants? I also have a hard time seeing how you THEN react hard when the iraqi/afghan troops imprison your soldiers and use the same 'unlawful' preocedure as yourself.

Couldn't have said it better!

It is confirmed... What isn't confirmed yet, is the number of player able to play it on the same time. (2-?)

The Americans have gone too far now What America is doing is simply outragious - the Bush-doctrine is one sick, ultra-rightwing religious extremist way to handle things. Just look at the last 5 years - America is slowly drowning itself, all what it have ever stood for: Freedom. You remember what Benjamin Franklin wrote? 'They who limit his own freedom for the sake safety, derserves neither.' By signing 'Military Commissions Act of 2006' - Bush have officially destroyed all Americans and foreigners on American soil right to live in a democracy. It is now legal to use 'extreme methods' to get subjects criminilize themselves. The funny thing is, that as the law states that using torture is not allowed - the defination of torture is now completely up to the government, and the Geneva convention is, as well all know it, optional in america. In other words, it is now allowed for the government to arrest you - use torture to get you plead guilty, and you don't even have the right to have your attorney with you. I wonder is the American public really that stupid, or don't you care? Wake up - your freedom is on the line here, don't just stand there looking dumb! I wonder how long it's gonna take to start using 'sieg heil' as you greeting to everyone - just check out this document, which you might think was the doctrine of the third reich (I guess it's for the fourth, though) http://www.whitehouse.gov/nsc/nss.pdf While this is very frightening, some things like the American arrogance just keep on surpricing me, and sometimes I find it rather amusing (well, the Americans are always good for a laugh, no? ). Just check out this link http://www.ostp.gov/html/US%20National%20Space%20Policy.pdf This document was made public without any words or anything, it was simply put available for the public to read. Now - what is it? It is simply a document claiming the rights to all space. The US apperently is the ruler of space, and claims all rights to it including the ability to stop others in it. (LOL). I guess i'm gonna write myself a paper claiming all rights to this universe, and if they are there - all other dimensions. The Bush administrations reminds me, in this case, of Hitchhikers guide to the galaxy - damn beucrates. Wake up America! Oh, and check out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m-IKof_965M

The clients already know what bullets hit where, no reason to send it one more time. I don't see why this would require more network bandwith? We are talking about atleast some animation of some kind when the house falls apart, and some kind of rubble when the building have collapsed (well, atleast more than just a building sinking to the ground). To the one stating that the house should take alot more damage to bring down.... Well, 3 sabot rounds should be more than enough to take out most modern houses.

So you are saying that this might be added in a patch later on (after release)?

Well, of course you are right,it is a game - nothing more. But I enjoy playing OFP missions without respawn, since then you have to be carefully and plan when to attack and when not to. Sure you can see respawning as reinforcements - but not all missions should have reinforcements (and they aren't always available in real-life neither).

Placebo told me that rolling will affect stamina alot to limit the things u just stated. However, everything is still WIP

The same for me...

Feel free not to buy such products. What an excellent argument

Oh man... so good to see that the centrifuge force is inthere for choppers... This will be fun

It's pretty hard running a news site when your news is 4 months behind everyone else

Well... When OFP was released I downloaded a cracked version of it to see if it was worth playing. I've been cheated so many times with an excellent Demo, and when the game comes, it's just crap and nothing like the demo. I guess that is good marketing, but it have teached me to play the full game before buying. Thank god the cracked version of OFP was so good that I bought it (And now have 3 copies due to broken CD's and because it's so cheap now). I know ArmA willl be a good game, so I don't have to download it - but if the game can't be bought - well, that kinda gives me no choise, does it?

I see this as a loose/loose situation with us gamers... Why don't we get a discount on the game, when the publishers are making money on me using me as a client for their advertising partners? Just like TV - the channels with adds are alot cheaper than the ones not using it. (in general).

Perhaps you might maybe be right at some time in the near future maybe that BIS might do something that might affect us in some probably way maybe, but perhaps speculation is all just a little too stupid because maybe it doesn't contribute to anything except bandwidth usage, so maybe what we're doing right now and pretty much everyone else in this forum might just be a waste of bandwidth and doesn't add anything at all maybe to anything. Who knows? Well, since if you really make a great netcode, there is no reason that this would use any bandwith. The AI software on all machines connected to an MP game is the exact same, so the AI will react the same if the situation is the same. This system is also seen in games like starcraft, where to only things that are transmitted through your internet connection, is you mouseclicks - nothing more. No unit-placement information is sent whatsoever. Desync will be a terrible thing, though - but I see no reason why head-movements, hand animations and other 'eye-catches' is synced on all PCs in an mp game. Did you even bother to read our posts? Because your response has absolutely nothing to do with what we were talking about. Weren't we talking about bandwith sucking of useless things like the trigger-animation and random headmovements on AI? If we are talking about CPU usesage, yep then im way off... But the point still stands. There is no need to transmit these information in MP, and therefor wont affect network bandwith. haha..hah..ahaha..ha.. We (Blackdog, and I) were talking about the bandiwdth wastage of speculating about shtuff in BIS forums. You should've maybe read what we had originally said. Word by word, instead of skimming through it. LOL, sorry 'bout that... Just didnt feel like reading through the last 10 pages since the last time. Sometimes this thread just grows too fast

Exactly! Now tell me this: Why announce a release date if you know it's not gonna last? to quiet down some people who cant wait without having a date to countdown to Hehe - and we all know what happends if people don't keep their promises

What you are looking for is already being modded. Check out this thread for more info: http://www.armedassault.eu/forum....=#post_

Yes, but that's advancing not running/sprinting. This really depends how you are advancing, you could be advancing by running also. If army is running or sprinting towards enemy isn't it advancing? Yes of course, but you need your arms free to have balance and speed. All I know was, that we were trained NOT to fire when running, since it would be no point. That is the whole point with frog-lifting (is that what it's called in English - I can never remember), which was introduced by the Brits during the Falkland-war and showed itself alot more useful and powerful than normal run while giving coverring fire. All Modern arms have (as far as I know), taken this tactic under their sleeves. The whole idea is, that you have a buddy-partner with you while advancing. When he runs, you shoot - then he stops around 10-15 metres infront of you (depending on how the battle is) and sart shooting towards the enemy - this is when YOU run. As stated, this tactic is very useful, since the human brain will try and shoot whoever is the largest threat to you, and therefor the enemy will be busy aiming why you squad is giving return-fire at all times.
