True indeed. BIS failed to support what kept this type of game alive almost a whole decade. WWW is creeping with coop servers with players who don't have the guts to play vs. other humans yet complaining the ai is "cheating". :D You will rarely find any pvp vanilla servers. Most coop servers are even on the ACE trip now.

They must have it attached to their rifle. :D If you watched the video the guy told there are many ways to read a compass when getting a bearing. This view is due to the limitations of the engine. If you had the possibility to see spatial and move your eye up and down the lens i'm sure they would have done that. Unfortunately you can't put in a bearing either.

Watch this two part video, just stumbled upon this. He has it in his face. You can't battle when reading a compass.

You don't fight and shoot with the compass in the face...do you?? I'd like to see that in RL. The problem with most players is. Most of them have never seen a compass before let alone read a map. Most players depend on the moving "GPS" symbols on the map, making them stupid. If players ( at least on foot and none GPS map equiped vehicles ) had to fight a warfare with only a map without symbols and the milliradian compass they would be busy with not losing themselves than fighting. I never had a problem finding a target in game, i could even tell someone where he was after making the person tell me what landmarks he can see and what bearing he should take to get to me. When playing a cw i tend to tell degrees and distances with the name of the person or location i use as point of reference and not cardinal points because they are not accurate, which is really confusing to my mates although it's easier than "man, close to us, to the north". And the space we are using is not larger than 1km². How difficult can it get when playing a warfare on 225km² with strangers?? :D

90% of all players can't even read or understand the 360° scale... :confused:

Anything is ok in war and love!! :D What i'd like to see is a PvP only warfare on a smaller island.

The wind is quite nasty, true. What distances do you try to shoot? At 1500m it sure is difficult, even more in RL. In game we only have bullet drop, wind and what else? I used to shoot 400-800m in vanilla arma without sight adjustments with a good hit percentage. Still getting hits up to 600m without major problems. The only problem is the "über" AI who can detect you even if you are dug in 6 feet deep. :( It got worse with the latest version playing Bennys Warfare.

Having problem with sniping?? :D

Afaik it's not in a crate ( yet ). I was told ues this for the editor. this addweaponcargo ["ACE_Kestrel4500",1] It's a bit confusing to use. Can't find out what direction the wind is blowing :confused:

LOL You surely never played on a server with bunny hopping, spraying bullets with the ppsh with drum mag without aiming b00ns. Sute they only make 1 or 2 kills per ~70 round mag, but that seems ok for them. :rolleyes: And i am talking about more than half of the players :D Those who want them off turn them off because you can. Don't bother others. If you think you are in a disadvantage keep them on but stop whining. If you want to enforce no crosshairs, get your own server running or join a no cross hairs server. Stop complaining.

If it can take a hit by a light AT weapon compared to the other HMMWV variants in the mod it would be a great improvement. :D

Did you have XP before Win 7? I have the same problem with Vista.

I gues the only thing they wanted to remove was the recognition and not the fact that you can measure the range. It makes sniping alone more difficult, encouraging teamwork ( but what if you area all alone and nobody wants to play with you ;) ? ) Most guys i know would rather go all rambo than playing spotter and just laying alongside you telling targets. Ok i know one guy who would be my spotter. But playing with an assault rifle atm is almost as much fun. :D Maybe the Rangefinder should be put in the same slot as the bino ( either bino or rangefinder ) instead of putting it in a rocket launcher slot. In RL soldiers can have rocket launchers and rangefinders in their equipment. At least give back the ability to "guess" the range without beeing able to recognize a target like in Bennys solution. It's difficult to aim AT weapons this way, too. In RL you have at least a slight idea about the distance to your target. As mentioned above, we have a 2D picture of a 3D world and lack depth perception like in RL.

Did i quote you?? :eek:

Please don't f*ck up A.C.E. while trying to correct mistakes caused by yourselves or by the patch. :)

Beeing able to see past obstacles is the only and worst thing with 3rd person view. On the other hand you have a better feel for your body/vehicle and environment when with 3rd person on. And you are less prone to vomiting :D

My binds went missing, the only thing working was alt-f4 :confused: Funny though my gamepad worked.

You can find serious PvP on locked clan servers ( of course if you have the password )

I think it should be that way. The commanders canopy is part of the turret and is not "stabilized". So it should turn with the turret. I don't think the turrets in RL turn that nervously like in ArmA 2. AI in Tanks behave like a person more than a crew in a tank. Compare an AI filled tank with one with players, you should see the difference. Ai turret is turning more like a player on foot aiming exactly compared to a player who needs a bit longer to aquire a target while in the steel coffin. http://dev-heaven.net/news/show/257 says 1.89 btw... does the AKM still sound like a toy compared to the AK107? It attracted my attention while i was playing east side.

I like ACE having conflict with other mods forcing players to only use what comes with the mod so all players play under the same conditions. :D

It's even more challenging than coop vs ai. AI always act the same way. When bullets pass theis head they go to prone in the open. A human player would run for it and try to reach cover while running making evasive moves. Imo playing vs humans shows if a team truly can teamplay.

ACE is very convinient. You don't have to run around and search for 100 addons for a mission. Just use this addon pack for a mission, everybody will have it because they must have it as a whole. And everything is balanced as good as possible within the mod itself. Different mods can have different settings.

For some reason the ace options ( grenade throw, G36 scope ) cease function when doing something. I am currently playing as commander? Is this killing the features o_O ? I could switch grenade throw modes just a minute ago. €: Weird. For some reason the key bindings i have don't work anymore ( f.e. backspace for menu back ). At least one is not doing what it's supposed to. When reconnecting everythings fine. I'm trying to find out what triggers this problem. maybe someone has the same probs from time to time and could share a solution. €: I think it's not mod related. It happens every time when i was in the build menu ( warfare ) - - - Somebody try this out. When using the distance indicator for grenade launcher it works fine on the west side. But on the east side it always disappears after a split second. Please confirm.

Am i the only one missing the scope sight for the G36? It might be because i went through the trouble of putting my player profile info into the client side file. Either it's a problem of that or it's n ACE issue. Asking just in case.
