I've never checked my fps. If it runs smooth enough for me I find it irrelevant to keep an eye on that.

I love my PS3 very much but I would never get a version of arma for that. Not because of technical limitations but because I'm very picky with who I play it with online. That would mean changing my comrades in arms for some random 12 year old company.

Funny you should mention that. Back in my service year of 1990 I got to use a german 88-flak. So yes, there are still even old ww2 era guns in service. I guess adding all tubes in this mod would be a task too much, haha.

Japan hit by 9.0-magnitude earthquake and tsunami
VanhA-ICON replied to Darkhorse 1-6's topic in OFFTOPIC
I think being civilized is what's downgraded many great nations. Besides nowadays committing a seppuku ain't that easy because whoever would be assisting would get a murder charge for that. Back to walker. Oh, and W0lle is right about the "comfy chair news". Lot's of speculation just for the sake of being on top of the issue. -

I agree fully. I mainly purchase "PS3 exclusive" ones for my console. (Uncharted 1&2 etc..) PC is my favorite platform but I just meant bashing consoles just because they exist, is silly.
-
I will get this for my PS3 for sure. The atmosphere feels a bit similar as in Mafia2 which I've been playing on pc recently. (I still don't understand the hostility towards consoles with some people.. maybe it changes when you have kids) :rolleyes:

Steam - opinions and experiences survey
VanhA-ICON replied to maruk's topic in ARMA 2 & OA - GENERAL
I voted the middle option. I like steam and I have approx 30 purchased games from there but I still prefer my retail copy of A2/Arrowhead. I'm just too afraid of constant server mix ups if I were to use a steam version of it. -
CM Operation Flashpoint 3 announced | "Oops, they're doing it again..."
VanhA-ICON replied to Undeceived's topic in OFFTOPIC
You have to understand that most people here don't really care if it was the greatest game ever made. We simply consider it's release as an act of profanity. It's hard to argue against principles. -
Well, this one is a remake of one of my A1 missions. It's not fully tested through on dedi so I was wishing some test help from the community. It has a GROUP respawn so play wise. Main target is randomly placed all over Takistan so it can be close or far away. Getting the intel will show it's location on the map. Download from here (Mediafire link) OVERVIEW: --------- Mission Name: Local Warming Game mode: COOP (1-14) Addon's required: - none Game version: Arma 2 + OA 1.57 Respawn: "GROUP" Short one line mini description: Destroy stolen AH-64 prototype Features:*[R3F] Logistics DETAILS: -------- Difficulty: Medium Playable side: USMC/KSK Island/towns:Takistan /...somewhere Core game style:Motorized infantry/Air transport Scale: Large Duration: about 60 mins Weather/Time: semi cloudy / 06:00am FILE DETAILS: ------------- Mission created by: VanhA Mission Version: 1.0 Release Date: 21 February 2011 Intro/Outro: no / no Briefings: Full briefing, notes & tickable objectives Created for Arma2 CO version: 1.57 SCENARIO: --------- Detailed scenario description/objectives: - Task 1: Clear checkpoint - Task 2: Destroy AH-64 - Task 3: Clear airport outpost (optional) - Task 4: Destroy AA radar Story/background: A secret prototype AH-64 was stolen by Takistani forces whilst it was being transferred from our base. Our best agent called Norman Callahan was assigned to investigate the location. He is used to working undercover. Norman has found out the location and is on the way back. Unfortunately he's unaware of a new Takistani checkpoint which was put up during his assignment. Your task is to eliminate quickly the checkpoint so that Norman can drive through safely and deliver the intel! Our German allies have loads of supplies, located at airport. We also need to take down a Takistani AA radar which controls the mountain airspace around Feruz Abad. CREDITS & THANKS: ----------------- - BIS/BIA for their great simulators. - JTF-2 & ICON squad for test assistance - objectsmover by Shuko - Logistics by [R3F] madbull - Alice2 fixes by Wolffy.au - Vehicletracker by Blanco HINT: The first task needs to be done asap as the agent is driving towards enemy outpost. KSK players can meanwhile concentrate on the optional 3rd task of clearing the airport. After the intel of AH-64 location is received you have the option to add KSK units to the US group with radio call. Each call will add 1 unit to the group. Few AI units will be automatically joined to the US group also after getting the intel.

OK, new link set up. Apologies. Oddly everything I send to my own storage gets corrupted so I had to open up a mediafire account. -
Well, before this thread is locked/moved to Multiplayer-section: *Not intensive in OFP because of lack of JIP I guess. *Check the Multiplayer section in the forum. There are plenty of good advices to help you with the problem. It can be annoying, I know. Some servers have chosen to be locked and some fight hard with tools given by this community.

*Team deathmatch *TDM24 JTF2 vs ICON *For Arma 2 *No addons http://www.kotikone.fi/wittmann/TDM24_JTF2_ICON.7z Made with sbsmac PvP script package. I once made this to a session with another squad as the name says. The guys liked it back then so why not share it... It takes place at Utes airport. I've added some extra on the runway. If you like it you're also free to adjust it how you want. -
I for one would only purchase a Zulu-Wars DLC if it comes with matching John Cleese and Graham Chapman units. Sorry the add lippin'

CAA1 missions pack: over 40 converted missions
VanhA-ICON replied to Psychobastard's topic in ARMA 2 & OA - USER MISSIONS
Nice work. FYI: Being the original author of the "Dead by dawn" mission, I have to warn that I once tried to convert it to CAA1 but discarded it because some of the triggers concerning captive status changes were malfunctioning with A2. I hope it works now.... maybe the patches have fixed issues. Anyways, nice effort there kameraten. :) -
Ghost Recon - Island Thunder campaign
VanhA-ICON replied to lightspeed_aust's topic in ARMA 2 & OA - USER MISSIONS
If it's done right, you won't notice the difference. Main purpose for that method is simply to save mission resources thus making the playing smoother. Going to try this pack. I also liked the original GR very much.
