Use the Search function, pravinrocks4u. It's there for a reason. Try the beta patches and give feedback that isn't just "this game has too many bugs". If you were to spend time looking for those beta patches you'll find that BIS has been releasing them at least once a month, or even multiple times a week recently.

You should post your specs, version of Arma 2, and ingame video settings so that we can help.

Even with all of that someone is still likely to get shot, especially if you're playing for prolonged sessions. Heck, they might even die due to a mistake they made or a mistake made by their team-mate. To have to wait 23 minutes to get back into playing again... Well, that's definitely not for me. When the situation requires it I always welcome forcing teamwork with open arms, but if the death penalty for doing so was having to wait a whole 23 minutes (which could be the length of the entire session in some cases) to respawn, I would just ragequit. If I had to wait that long... I would prefer no respawn at all. But hey, if people can stand that, and they enjoy it, then more power to them. :)

I also have these videos, if they'll help you at all. Good luck. ;)

But even when you're working as a team it's very likely that you're still going to die in a game-world as dynamic as Arma 2's.

I think he has been banned in the past, but not for anti-American rhetoric/supporting terrorism. Like most of the new posters from India I believe it was for spamming. Hopefully now it is a permanent ban.

Say what? That's over 23 minutes of waiting! :eek: I get the idea of promoting teamwork, but 23 minutes... That would just promote boredom. Especially in a game mode like Domination...

I'm not American. I think the US DoD is giving this exactly the attention it deserves.

It's funny how these people always want to destroy the US as a country and there is always one thing that sets them apart from the US. It would take years, decades, centuries for them to "destroy" the US, but I wonder if they realize that the US could obliterate their own country with the simple click of a finger. We just try to show that we're better people than them by not doing so, I guess.

v0.3 was the first beta release of the campaign containing only the first 5 missions and all of the cutscenes to that point. It doesn't contain the entire campaign as it is still WIP, hence why I am making more missions. The entire campaign probably won't be finished for a while still.

Yes, that's a bug I've looked into and since fixed for the next version. Don't worry, that's the last mission I included in this release.

Thanks again for the kind words everyone. Keeps me going. :D Work on the campaign is progressing slowly due to my upcoming exams and all, but it's still doing just that - progressing. Hopefully some time in the near future we'll see another release with more missions. I figured I owe you some form of teaser, so here's two pictures taken from one of the new missions. Stay tuned.

I've just noticed that there's an issue in the recent beta patches when recording video with Fraps, at least for me. It will record ok for a couple seconds but then the FPS will just drop down to 1 and won't move until I stop the recording. I've made a video about it, which you can see below. This specific video was made using 70313.

Heh, believe me, I know all about that. ;)

Lol HyperU2, don't take it to heart. :p BoB was definitely the better series, and I like both the Army and the Marines. I don't think The Pacific is bad, though, just not as good, but I wasn't expecting it to be. I enjoy it for what it is.

A 7.8 is pretty mediocre, but I too would agree that I don't always agree with IGN's ratings. However, in this case, I do wholeheartedly. You need to watch the episode to see what I mean, it was very impressive.

For me it actually performs worse in windowed mode. But I recall that on some rigs that would have issues running Arma 2 could fix them by running in windowed mode. Really, you won't find out until you try it yourself, like Alex72 suggests.

Yes, I agree that BoB hasn't been beaten by The Pacific, but that doesn't mean I don't like it. Both are my two favorite miniseries.

Wow, that was very, very impressive SenChi. I had a great time watching it! :D

Lolwut? "The miniseries had a budget of more than US$ 150 million." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Pacific_%28miniseries%29#Budget "Band of Brothers was the most expensive television miniseries ever made by HBO or any other television network. An early report placed the budget at $110 million. In fact, the budget was approximately $125 million." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Band_of_Brothers_%28TV_miniseries%29#Budget_and_promotion It had a greater budget than Band of Brothers, and that was anything from seeming low budget. :butbut:

OFP helicopters don't fly anything like they do now in Arma 2. :rolleyes: In OFP you couldn't have fast landings as they'd blow you up, you had to be very close to 0 speed. The flight model also seemed to do it's best to keep you going horizontal, and it also seemed to make the helicopters out to be heavier than they are, especially when you've been accelerating and you try to pull out of it.

Part 9 is excellent, though. May have taken them 9 parts to get to it, but for the last episode involving combat, it's incredibly well-done. Most critics seem to believe so too, IGN gave it 10 out of 10. :eek:

Chernarus perhaps? As in the CDF acting in a UN role? http://www.armapoint.com/dta/images/02/chernarus_flag.jpg

Denote the :p emoticon, ScareCrow. 'Tis the best way of getting "I'm joking around" across on the internet. But some things never change, eh? ;)

Well... I don't know what to say... This is a first for BIS' games? :p
