  1. I barely play online. I barely play missions. Arma to me is basically about the editor and I have a blast with all the mods and little bullshit Ambushes I set up.

    That said, with PR having it Possibly blocked off, I find myself absolutely unphased. I will play PR as intended, and if I find the need fOr some editor goodness I'll fire up one of my other quality mods instead and go for my life.

    I can't see how it's a deal breaker at all, and surely there will be many nice missions to begin with and with an editor as nice as arma's it wouldn't surprise me if new missions didn't become available on a regular basis - and talented people adamant to do such things with PR might consider trying to get on board the team as a mission maker.


  2. This.

    Modders can work with this and then the nifty extras can come

    To play but that solid base of infantry tactics in a number of

    Scenarios (Forrest, urban, mechanised etc) there would be be nothing else I'd ever need to play.


  3. Since it is extremely difficult to move one thread into this one, I guess I'll just copy/paste my suggestion here.

    I'm sure it needs to be said, even if someone is already on it.

    This combat action was something almost completely out of an action movie, SOOO many things could have easily gone wrong. Its a miracle the that nothing hit the fan.

    I personally think it is worth doing, and doing RIGHT.

    For now, I'll suggest some things for whatever missionmaker is brave enough to do this correctly, since BIS obviously have their hands full.

    Here's a few suggestions:

    1. Random script to have one of the helos fail enroute.

    2. Random script to have local populace notice helos (Twitter feed).

    3. Random script to have OPFOR/local military academy/Pakistani Air Force/local town react to either Twitter, helos, or gunfire(Could lead to very unique BHD type scenario). Also stress to the players the situation of such problems.

    4. Random amount/quality of bodyguard.

    5. GOOD VOICE ACTING AND RADIO CHATTER.

    Please discuss and brainstorm, I'll be back later for more suggestions.

    IMHO, the professionals should do this.

    If noone from the Arma community can do it right, then I'll be glad to see this when Battlefield 3 comes out.

    Yep I agree since my attempt has flopped and fallen on it's head.


  4. Osama bin laden mission please

    My mediocre skills are trying as we speak but I am a amateur. All I have is a location and some half assed attempts at an insertion via helo.

    Location can be the villa on zargabad.. Perhaps some more skilled people could elaborate on what else we could do.


  5. Not a whole lot to be honest my "missions" usually ends with me placing disproportional forces around some town/city and clearing them out without rhyme or reason.

    Having just adding gl4 to my extensive mod list I discovered the enemy will garrison buildings. This has been a blast, though disappointed that my troops don't flush them out.

    Step in Jtd building search.

    They kicked my ass out of the buildings, so this could lead to some very fun gameplay for me.

    So basically if I could have a couple of friendly spec op squads moving ahead of my armored contingent clearing out those pesky at troops I would be very happy.

    Thanks for the reply!

    Anywhere you would recommend me looking to get the basic understanding of scripting ?
