You do realise a video would simply be a Harrier flying over 204km of flatish desert with the odd tree, rock, or floating house. Â Â Or do you want us to include the 4 minute loading screen too. Â You're not missing too much at this stage, but it's very exciting now that we have an idea of what ArmA is capable of.

This has always bugged me slightly since OFP. Look under a parked car on a really dull grey overcast day. You still get a dark blob of shadow under it. Maybe a different style of shadow for use in overcast conditions would be a solution? Sounds very tricky though.

True, but say I got hold of a DEM of the Lake District, whacked a texture on it, added a few detailed bits and released it. It'd be useful for RAF style training at the least. I could then add more detail and landmarks, and requests from British players and units, and just keep releasing a new version every time a sizeable chunk is detailed. I'd never aim for it to be finished, but I reckon it'd be pretty cool to see in game.

Although it takes 4 mins to load using 204km x 204km, according to Google Earth, something approaching the size of Wales could be made. Â I definately can't wait to get my hands on a DEM of the Lake District.

@karantan Sorry, I don't usually join in with this, just got a bit tired of seeing the same old (and it is getting old) discussion in what feels like every page I look at on these forums. Sorry, what do you mean? I think I'm confusing myself here more than anything.

No, "fanboys" or "fellow posters" as I like to call them MAKE DO with what they have, knowing they have no control over the issue other than to enjoy the game, complain to BIS directly or get their money back. And "fanboys" tend not to flood the forums with utter shite that no-one wants to read. Â On topic: Can't wait till everyone's back to the same level version wise. Would be nice to see the setpos bug fixed though.

Amen.

I share Espectro's view on power. Just because we can doesn't mean we should, and I believe this applies especially to nuclear power.

The SCUD Missile is no longer in ArmA, but I'd be surprised if someone isn't already working on one. I've got a feeling the team that made the SCUD addons for OFP might be working on one, have a look around.

Gaia's is pretty arcady, but is extremely well made and good fun.

Nah, I thought the time I had my teeth pulled out was funnier.

Tried giving 10 west riflemen on full skill and 10 east riflemen on full skill 20 M16s on flat ground at midday?

Wow, can't wait for the choppers!! Good work, and good flying! Thanks for the music too.

YouTube Vid - It's pretty easy to simulate this. Just stick two AA soldiers down on your flightpath, and fly past them. The first rocket usually disables your tail rotor, which doesnt affect the UH-60 too much. The second almost always knocks out your engine, at which point you attempt to glide your way out putting yourself and your passengers into a crater. Â You can definately tell the difference when you don't press Z / reduce throttle.

Aw wow, I never realised I could do that in ArmA! Or OFP. Â Ha, it's pretty fun too. EDIT: I'm using a keyboard, works fine if I whack and hold the Z key as soon as I get hit. If you're practicing, pressing Q turns the engine back on, but Z only keeps the rotors from slowing down too fast.

Maybe it's cause they're arguing over who's the most disappointed whilst we're simply saying what we like about it. I really just love looking at the water out of the window of a chopper sometimes. Can't wait till the next patch brings everyone into line, and I can't wait for the tools to come out.

No, there're tonnes of us. We've just teamed up with other like minded players and formed clans. Team battles without respawn is a great concept. Usually when I respawn, I lose a lot of interest for the mission. I like the "keep on your toes or you're dead" adrenaline/terror that only OFP and ArmA can provide.

Havn't the foggiest idea how you managed to miss this. ArmA Videos

Does seem pretty low, but remember at the moment the worldwide community is split up into loads of different versions of ArmA. We're all waiting for the next official patch release to bring everyone back into line.

That toggle options already there mate. Â EDIT: Ah, too late.

"not proper "core" music. " Do be honest, I couldn't give a crap what bands are labelled as or compared to. If it's good music I'll listen to em. Enter Shikari seem to stand out as a lot more unique that other bands that get labelled alongside anyway.

JdB and Tovarish, good points.

Saw Enter Shikari live, probably one of the best gigs my shitty little town's ever seen. Â Didn't expect them to be my cup of tea, so I just turned up cause everyone else was. And now i'm a convert! Recently listening to Oceansize, Pendulum, Enter Shikari and Mark Ronson.

Beautiful landscape pictures Vilas. Is that hilltop castle a monastery? I think i've seen it before.

What about joint coop?
