Hello, I just played Windstorm mission to the point where the escorted heli should unload it's troops but it's just hovering there 50 meters from ground doing nothing so I think the mission bugged for me :-/. I have killed several enemy vehicles near the unload position. Is this known issue?

I will seed both :p

Did you try to run them separately? I mean run vanilla Arma 2 first and then Operation arrowhead and after that try to run in Combined operations mode. I think you may have to run them once separately before they work together.

Are we there yet? Are we there yet?! Almost, Woohooo!

1.60 is going to be so awesome :-). Waiting for it like a child for christmas.

Hello. Though I'm sure that with right mods blufor Anti-air equipments can be improved I think that blufor should get some proper AA. Avengers and linebackers are like toys compared to shilkas and tunguskas because all the missiles can be so easily averted with counter-measures (they dont have radar and don't see enemy before they have launched missile at you and usually not even then). The imbalance comes very clear when you are playing in PvP and all the good pilots are stacked in opfor side, you will have no chance at all to fight back. Please fix.

Have you tried it against players on servers? Both linebackers and avengers die faster than you can say cat. They don't even have radar so their missiles are not only completely ineffective, they are blind as well. -.- I'm so frustrated. And if I don't remember incorrectly also Su has countermeasures so your Su probably didn't use them while flying to cover and rearm. At OpFor side you can shoot air units down from miles away but on blufor you can not target enemy air units unless you see them and at that point it's usually too late. You can even have one unit at the otherside of map to spot enemy planes and you can try to command your gunner on linebacker to target it but as soon as your AI looses eye contact on it it's lost and 10 second later you can be "surprised" by that same plane and you blow up. So stupid.

Yes, but this is not "real world". Your team doesn't necessarily always have people who want to fly and then you are at mercy of other teams pilots. I like to keep my foot on the ground and fight there but at the moment I don't have almost any tool to combat enemies air forces. All blufor AA launchers are weak at best and easily avoided 99% of time. Nothing beats good turret, bullets aren't so easy to dodge. If you know how to be as effective at taking planes/helis down from ground on BluFor as on OpFor team I'm glad to learn, but so far haven't found out and I have been trying to find out on many games already.

Maybe, but that firepower looses all value when you can not use any vehicles because they blow up immediately after spawn. Blufor "AA" is dependant in that you have some dedicated pilot in your team combating their air units. In every other area I can think both sides have counterpart but there is no shilka/tunguska counterpart in blufor.

A lot of interesting games coming!! :O But I voted for Arma :).

You dont have to use the scroll menu to command them to move. Just select them and left click on where u want them to go, or use map and click on map spot.

is the constant crashing of CTi servers... I'm am sure that over 50% of the matches end to server crash and these matches last long so it s** that all the team effort goes to waste so often. Why are the servers so unstable? Is there something being made to fix servers stability? (just played on two different servers and both games ended in crash so had to take a little break of playing again)

I usually play in HS or Suicidesquad :G..

I mean that the whole server crashes, not just me. Sometimes I get ctd's too tho. But most often I start getting messages "No response from server in last 5,10,15,20,25..... seconds" and if I wait long enough I get booted automatically back to server browser and the server has usually disappeared from the list then.

Hover tractor! I have always wanted one xD.

Okey, thanks for the tips. Have to practice some more without flaps.

Can someone explain to me how exactly are you supposed to use flaps while taking off? Practiced today a bit landing and taking off with SU-25 and especially the taking off was hard for me, it just didn't want to lift. Tried to start with full flaps to speed up and then gradually get them up but still I just barely could get to air and if there would have been trees on the way I would have died for sure :S.

Hi. Im currently using latest beta 60393 (just updated from 602xx and had the problem there too). For some reason button F7 isn't really working anymore. It works once if I press it for awhile and then it doesn't work anymore. This makes controlling the unit that is bound to F7 very frustrating obviously because I can't select that unit anymore by pressing it's button. I tested the button in editor where those buttons are used too and noticed that once I pressed F7 once it would stay "activated" permanently or until I visited desktop and came back. In game this doesn't however stop me from using other F buttons still. Is there any fix for this or is this bug in beta? I used beta for a while and I didn't have this bug from the start, but then something must have changed. (maybe some kind of collision with other buttons like joystick or something?) ---------- Post added at 07:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:19 PM ---------- Ok. My guess was correct. I had played with control settings not long ago and tried to get "Next target" to my joystick. Because there is two "Next target" buttons in controls I put the same button from my joystick to both of them because I didn't know which was used while in air unit. The infantry "Next target" didn't even say that the button was already in use elsewhere (in the other "Next target" setting) but after I removed the button from infantry settings my F7 seems to work again after short test. Let's hope it stays working, I'll report back if it doesn't. Still a bit weird bug... ---------- Post added at 07:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:26 PM ---------- Now the bug is back since I restarted TrackIR and tried again so I guess the real culprit is trackir software -.-.... ---------- Post added at 07:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:38 PM ---------- Had to change the default buttons in trackir to something else (had changed every other key except F7). I guess it's fixed now, Zenu over and out.

Some of the BSOD ja CTD problems might be RAM related, you could try to underclock or put everything on their defaults and try if you still experience crashes. Have helped me in the past atleast when I had constant CTD's when my gpu would suddenly stop working.

I would like to see some kind of ranking system. Right now the servers dont really remember you and it's stupid on some servers that you must play continuously for hours before you can touch some of the vehicles.

I will probably buy one when I can afford it =P. Btw, is this enough for Arma2 http://www.naturalpoint.com/trackir/products/trackir5/ or should one also buy trackclip with it, that LED thing? These things dont come with the camera product itself http://www.verkkokauppa.com/productimages/orig/74860_01.jpg ? Are they necessary? Please explain -.-.

If you have GPS you can activate it by pressing right ctrl+m , then you have minimap :).

Why do u have to call him? Cant you use steam chat?

Hello. I'm in Badlands mission atm and I want to know is there any way to place the new soldiers I buy to some group other than my own? I would like to keep my team small :P. Thanks for replies.

Ok thanks, I'll try that out. ---------- Post added at 03:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:49 PM ---------- The list is completely empty to me, there is no groups to which send the units...
