Great, thank you :) I love all the flyables.

Me too. I want to play another campaign but I don't like installing addons.

Does anyone have any good missions to do in a gunship? I have made a few for myself but it's boring when you know what to expect. The KA-50 is really fun and powerful, and the jet bombers are great. I would really like some missions like a flight sim, anyone have any or know of any?

Whiskey-Whiskey: A mission inspired by Special Ops Mission
telo replied to mpatton's topic in ARMA 2 & OA - USER MISSIONS
Fun mission. I died the first 2 times because I tried to rush it and also because I didn't pay attention to what weapon I had... When I realised you gave us a sniper rifle, I took it slower and picked them all off from a distance and it was all good from there. I also stole a vehicle which made the rest of the mission quite easy. I think you could add to this some more. I killed the senior guy in the village where you look for weapons, so I achieved 2 of the 3 objectives right at the start. Then I went to the airport in the truck with the gun on the back, and I saw about 6 guys walking near the runway. I capped them all with the gun on the truck and then that was it. All I needed to do was satchel the HQ and head back. I think maybe there should be more to do at the airport instead of just kill 6 guys and place the charges. Also, when sniping the guys at the beginning, the movement of the enemies in my scope was extremely choppy. They were stuttering when it was running. I've never seen that happen before, online or even in the single player campaign. Fun mission though. -
New poster new player - question on single player mode

Well... :) First off you have the armory which you can use to try stuff out including planes and choppers. But you have to use various weapons and vehicles to unlock more weapons and vehicles but if you play it long enough, you'll unlock everything and that is part of the fun. There is however a cheat code which you can just enter and it unlocks them all, but I can't remember what that is. The armory only lets you fly around on a boring map though with not really much to do. It gives you generic objectives like turn 180 degrees or escape some bad guys and whatnot but it's not very good imo. What you really should do, is get to grips with the editor. It really isn't as complex as you may think. I didn't want to have to learn the editor either, but I tried it briefly and in literally 2 minutes I had made my own mission.... The thing with the editor is this. It is EXTREMELY easy to do most things, but some things are trickier. The things that are tricky are things like scripting events and getting the AI to do stuff and triggering things, like when you head down a road, a plane takes off in the distance or something. But, simply placing good guys and bad guys, with whatever equipment you want, is extremely easy. So I suggest you do what I did. Scroll around the map and look for the big main airport. Not the little one on the south coast, or the little one near the east coast, but the one more towards the centre of the map. Get it in the middle of your screen and then double click somewhere. You then get to place an object, ANY object :) So it can be a weapon or a tank or a plane or a chopper or whatever you want. Then select "Empty" which means it will be empty so you can get in it. Put a Harrier and a chopper and a bunch of tanks and spread them out a bit. Then you can put a man to be your character. I like to put a sniper in and you set it to be "Player". Then somewhere else, place a bunch of humvees and men and maybe a few tanks. Instead of "Empty" choose the Russians or whatever instead. Then simply save it click to test the mission and you will load in as a sniper and then you can just go and get in whatever vehicle you want, and go and kill stuff :) -
How Satisfied with Arma2 Are you??

I love this game! My only criticism is that the single player campaign is very poor. Even when you ignore the bugs and things, it's just not very good. You can't ride bikes, drive tanks, fly choppers, fly jets, drive boats, etc.. Luckily the player made missions and the multiplayer help make up for that. I find the scope of this game to be enormous and that really amazes me. For the future, I would like to see tweaks to fix the way buildings lose their textures and then reload them, and also how trees and foliage changes as you approach. I would also like to see a new continent with some different environments. And I really want a great campaign, although I'm hoping I will be able to find a player made one to do that for me. -
This was a good mission! Thank you! It worked great for me, no problems at all, and I enjoyed it.
