Well said OP, signed 100%

Not to mention the negative impact this will cause to any future release through BI Store..

Yea, but seeing moderators locking down these threads and telling us to sit on our butts and to contact bistore support makes things even more ridiculous. If you want a good laugh at this point go ahead and check Wolle's signature quote.. oh the irony.

And the dudes in the other thread, who bought the Steam version are having a great time with alpha. :D Clicking the download link 143th time.. nothing.

Aye.. only got the confirmation email and a non-working link. Used credit card for the purchase.

Yep, same here now.. the page cannot be displayed. :( I understand that the traffic load must enormous, but still... this is the worst online shopping experience ever. I've never had anything like this with big titles from other distributors (Steam/Origin). ---------- Post added at 17:46 ---------- Previous post was at 17:43 ---------- Well, Dwarden said something like this "use BIS store, we get more money that way.." :)

After two painful hours, I finally made it to purchase the supporter version from store.bistudio.com. I receive the order confirmation to my email with a link saying "Download link for Arma 3 Supporter Edition - Steam version is HERE" Click... and I find myself again at store.bistudio.com website saying "No purchase of this product found in your account. Please contact support@bistudio.com Fatal ERROR. Contact support@bistudio.com ". Jesus... Why didn't they allow us to buy Supporter version from Steam directly? Greediness? Still waiting for the download link to work..

While I support the idea of reporting bugs through DevHeaven, can't one start a conversation here without someone posting that "How-to-report-a-bug"? The AI-driving/pathfinding issue has been around since Arma2 was released (even before that). Unless BIS devs prefer to drive their own cars like Stevie Wonder, they should be aware of the obvious problem without waiting for someone to post a ticket about it. No offence to you PvPscene..

I didn't notice any new missions to BAF... Or is this only for MP? -cabby

A-10 Airstike support is still not working in missions. Try BAF missions Concreate Oasis or Tank Hunters. It works perfectly without the beta though.

Thank you very much! -Cabby

Just a quick offtopic question to Jarhead or someone else who can answer.. What is that addon which gives you the command menu in middle of screen (Landrover vid, 0:48)? Cheers, -Cabby

Mandoble posted about it in beta thread already... and if you read my post again, I said, I noticed it in official BAF mission (Tank Hunters). You would think they have a pretty damn quick access to their own missions, now wouldn't they? :D

I tried the new beta yesterday and at least in BAF scenarios Tank Hunters and Concrete Oasis you can see it. A-10 arrives but it just circles around.

Anyone else noticed with the latest patch, that if you call Close Air Support, A-10 wont attack anything?

Cheers Mandoble for the info. Hopefully it gets fixed soon!

Are you playing with the latest OA-beta? Yesterday evening I tried it again in BAF Tank Hunters scenario. Switched to Jav, Dir-mode, good lock on tank, fire. The missile went through the tank, bounced from the ground behind it and exploded. Ofc, it may very well be that the problem is caused by ACE, CBA or OA-beta or something else. :) Didn't have time to try it just with vanilla CO and MMA. It's just it has worked with other mods before so I wondered if the problem is with MMA.

Nah, I can confirm that Javelins are not working with Arma2 CO and MMA. Locking procedure/firing mode selection works OK, but after firing the missiles fly through the tanks.

Thanks again W0lle for pointing me to right direction! I'm going to download your package as soon as I get home from work. And yes, I believe it was Bomberman all along what I was looking for. :D I was a team leader in Finnish Frontier Guard, so I have a strong bias toward recon/guerilla warfare type of missions. If you find time to convert Ammo Convoy in some point, I'd be very grateful! Cheers! -Cabby

Thank you! But, I think I remembered the wrong mission. ;/ The one in my mind was a convoy ambush mission. If I remember correctly, there was a helo insertion and then you set up your group above the hill and waited for the convoy (BMP, couple of troop transports, etc). It might have been a user made mission too. I just remember playing it over and over again. :) BUT, there was a same kind of mission in Arma 1 (Ammo Convoy?). Any chance to get it converted, please? -Cabby

Hey guys! I have been trying to find a re-make of this legendary original OFP demo ambush mission (http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?t=38033), but no luck! Please, W0lle or somebody, make my dream come true and port this mission to Arma 2 or Arma2 OA environment. Your sincerely, Cabby

My system specs: Windows 7 Pro 64bit Intel i7 @ 2.8 GHz 8 GB RAM @ 1600 MHz Ati Radeon 4870X2, Catalyst 10.9a drivers with the latest application profile I have to do a bit more testing though, because the problem occured again after I changed a few settings in Catalyst Control Panel and Arma launcher. :) Can anyone please confirm, whether -winxp parameter is still valid in multigpu + Vista/Win7 setup? And/or do I have to rename Arma2oa.exe to Arma2.exe to get crossfire working?

Thank you for the update BIS. I don't know what you did, but this patch fixed all my texture LOD issues. Good job!

I agree with you 100%. But what I "fail" to understand is that some people here do find the time to bash my opinions about Six updater, but don't care to use the same time to provide any other help than -> "Don't use Bis forums, developers ain't reading this, Use DevHeaven." It is just to me at least, BiS forums are the main source of information about their games, mods, etc. - discuss about them and share information. I care to believe that it is the same for many others too. In that light, blaming its members/readers for making community developers to take a hike is down right selfish and stupid.

*sigh* ..and obviously we need less touchy community developers.
