BIS, I want my day back! http://feedback.arma3.com/view.php?id=22583

That's ARMAVERSE calender for you! :cool:

[Feedback tracker administration]

Hello,

Would it be possible to add more categories for the reported issues? For example there is none for the course of fire challenges.

Thanks!

[Inertial course of fire]

Hi, yes - it makes sense to do an iteration of the times as we head towards Marksmen DLC (because weapon handling once again becomes a focus). We do have at least one person on the team who has beaten gold for all CoFs after those tweaks :)

Thanks for the answer Joris! I must say I admire those who can still achieve a gold medal ever since the introduction of these mechanics. Knowing that someone else can do it motivates me.

Good mission, quite original concept.

[Inertial course of fire]

Hello,

I'm trying to complete all course of fire scenarios but ever since the introduction of sway, fatigue and especially inertia, it is much harder to achieve a golden medal.

Still I did manage to complete CoF: Green and Red 1 & 2. CoF: Red 3 is very difficult for me due to the inertia. Are there plans to adjust this CoF to the new gameplay mechanics?

Regards

[Unit gear based on classname]

just to add a note when struggling with script syntax. Use -showScriptErrors in startup parameters.

Explained more here: https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_3_Startup_Parameters#Developer_Options

I was using that and I always do when creating missions. The option is available on the launcher now, under Author. Thanks anyway.

[Unit gear based on classname]

You're using the wrong brackets. Should be:

   switch ( typeOf _x ) do   
       // . . . //

Also, I recommend using toLower command.

Bingo. I did use () at first but was told it was {} No issues though! Thank you, thank you very much!

[Unit gear based on classname]

I'm sorry guys but I'm using the correct classname for the units, I've just checked it (and I did copy it directly from the unit placement window).

Even fixing the commas does nothing. I will throw in the default but I can't figure this out. I would advise you to try it yourselves to check it better.

Appreciate all your help. Thanks.

[New Weaponsway is way to much. And holding breath bug?]

You're not really outnumbered if you can keep your APC alive. The problem is that you can barely see the AI at all at 100m+ in the bushes while they shoot pretty good... then you shoot and hit you can see their bodies moving awkward but they don't just die that easy. A few devbranch updates ago bullets were more efficient now it seems I'm firing a peashooter again. Considering there's no zoomed sight, I thought it was the weaponsway but it isn't... I can really see I hit them and they don't die. It's the dmg model, again.

I agree. While CSAT uses an all body armor protection it should not be as powerful as the regular NATO carrier rig. CSAT is more mobility at the expense of protection.

[General Discussion (dev branch)]

The sounds for doors are just the first version, and our best men already work on some improvements :icon_twisted:

I demand open/close armored vehicle hatch sound!

[New Weaponsway is way to much. And holding breath bug?]

I will agree that holding your breath is not working properly or it is very inefficient in the current state. But this was to be expected, I'm sure fatigue and sway will still be tweaked and improved upon. Still the changes are going in the right direction and overhauling of the system was long overdue.

[Patch 1.24 (Bootcamp Update) Feedback]

Personally I love the update. The mini-campaign is awesome and features such as the game launcher and gear customization were long overdue. Just because there's mods for that doesn't mean the vanilla version should not have them.

Good job BIS.

Hey guys, the initial release is going to be very simple (as Joris details in here: SITREP). If it works, we can build on that.

[Lighting Tweaking (dev branch)]

Well then either add a new type of illumination flares or make the existing ones to be able to illuminate large areas. It currently breaks a lot of missions that adds the flares as another form of tactical advantage and a layer of immersion. These are actually my favorite missions, and I'm not alone in this. Moving without NVGs, having to illuminate your way and find the attacking enemy is a marvelous experience, and currently it's completey broken. We can use illumination flares also for signalling anyway, problem solved.

I'm just repeating what a developer said. ;)
