Eagle911

Okay, I have taken a 4 month break from this game. I was very excited to see ACE is in beta now but getting it to work is incredibly tough. Why are there a gazzlion things I have to install, then update mods and run commands. This is no where near friendly to the casual person. Is there a well written guide out there that starts off at the very first step? Why couldn't they just make it so you just download one thing, rather than many?

Ah, gotcha. That makes sense

bump :)

I have a question Currently in this game, there aren't DISTINCT differences between other planes, helos, and vehicles that are mods between vehicles already in the game... other than look and maybe a different loadout. For instance, the Longbow seems to have a similar loadout to the cobra. In Arrowhead will be seeing distinct differences between the two? Not just one may be a little faster or slower, but different targeting systems, technologies being used, etc?

Whats the song to the first video?

No, ive dropped down in a forest in a huey and was being bounced around from the trees and no dmg was done

Im almost positive looking into a nuclear explosion would make blind

I get 20 fps on normal settings and like 6 on very high And my computer isn't too bad

agree 100%

Very nice. Now if a vehicle blows up, will it always spread on fire? That could prove to be annoying if it had a high percentage of spreading

Would a space environment be possible in ArmA2?

Well, lets hope they release this expansion WITHOUT a ton of bugs and such

I got shot and killed out of no where Behind trees, laying down prone in dense grass with no movement In fog and heavy rain all at night :(

Correct, in SP. I tried switching back to the sqaud leader

Found a bug When changing to a dead squad leader the game freezes or something. :( Got stuck near a BMP and no sqaud mates had AT

I was under the impression that this game is a military simulation when i first bought this game. Not an infantry simulation, but a military. Last time i checked the military consisted of an Army, Navy, and Airforce. So that goes for all the aspects of the military. That's like a car dealership offering test drives on their top of the line cars for free. But the test drive only consists of driving around the parking lot. No "testing" involved. If you catch my drift.

Nope here are my complete specs Video card - NVIDIA GeForce 9800 GTX (minor overclock with EVGA precision) CPU - Intel Core 2 Duo E6850 @ 3.0 GHz Motherboard - ASUS P5QC LGA 775 Intel P45 ATX Intel Motherboard RAM - Patriot Extreme Performance Gaming Series 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Desktop Memory And 2gb of some other DDR2 RAM Case - COOLER MASTER HAF 922 Power supply - Cooler Master Real Power Pro 750W Power Supply

Found a bug. The fast forward doesn't work Really cool so far. Just wish i didn't get hurt walking near all the fire. Now my aim sucks I get only 9-12 fps though running on normal settings

I assume this can be both SP and Coop right?

Turn up the AI skill

CoD4 and CoD5 have one. Just open up chat and you continue to walk Same thing happened in BF2 and BF2142 also i think

I have the save game bug, where i can play from where i prev. left off. I didn't get far into campaign but it's stupid because it barely works. I've only playing campaign once, and that was the day after i got the game.

Now i put the .sqm mission file into my missons folder but it doesnt show in the game. Am i missing something?

For a military simulator, why is the physics engine pretty terribad?

Would this be possible in this game? Here are some ideas: Using navy ships to provide artillery support (think destroyers, etc) We have a Aircraft Carrier model already in the game, why can we have missions where marines assault the enemy from the carrier (riding out from the carrier to shore) Navy against Navy warfare, of course. Could have MP maps where you have to scramble jets and defend the fleet or something of the sort.
