  1. Stupid Question, would like a clever answer. Im making a mission for my community and ive placed loads of playable soldiers on the map which is fine, but when me and a few friends join once we die, we can only respawn as the nearest thing to us....

    so how how how do you place static spawnpoints.

    Many Thanks

    Martin

    p.s - MODS, sorry please move post to ArmA 2 - MISSION EDITING & SCRIPTING.. didnt read the sticky, my stupidity again..

    *** Update***

    just found out about markers, so made a marker, called it W_Respawn, but does it have to have any soldiers in its radius? and also i dont have a description.ext after i have saved my mission as multiplayer


  2. Yeah noticed this kind of behaviour as well..reminds me a lil bit of bf2 where people would shoot choppers down if they cant fly them.

    But I dot think these people will keep on playing the game..they'll get bored soon.

    they will get bored but the money they spent on the game is all going to BIS for making the game giving them more incentive to patch it up and keep on working on it :D most online MP games have prats who play just to ruin it for others... it is a pain but hopefully a fix will show itself in the near future to tackle this problem


  3. maps? no only 1 huge piece of land, including forests, cities, villages and open countryside and beaches.... the multiplayer aspect may use all of the map in a scenario but other smaller scenarios may only use 20%, it all depends on what your objectives are


  4. Does anyone know if Arma2 will have a "freeview" sort of feature in the game where as you can control the camera and just let AI do all the action, as i have plans to make several videos in this way, as recording in first-person with the HUD and weapon showing just wont cut the mustard im afraid.... so to my question, will ARMA2 have recording facilities for me (I.E:- freeview camera)

    Cheers

  7. the only i can see for hosts spellcast is that even ARMA is a high end cpu usage game, and ARMA2 will be as well, and server hosts, would possibly have to use 0.5 of a server just to host an ARMA2 server, which is where they would start to lose money as they could host far more counter-strike source or day of defeat servers...

    which is a bugger...


  8. being a gamer from the first OFP and ARMA, i can trust BIS as i know they look after there "gaming family" as it were... Although they havent advertised it as much (even though OFP:DR has done theres with fake cgi most of the time) BIS has let us download all the in-game videos they released and i have seen a lot of them on youtube which is in itself advertising, the gamers are advertising the game to other gamers....

    I have also e-mailed amazon.co.uk to confirm they will be shipping on the 19th june to coinside with 505games release date, and not the 26th which is what my account is showing as the delivery date.. so cross yer fingers, touch some wood and hope for the best
