So far i am really enjoying the multiplayer experance on Arma3. Just last night i was with a friend playing on a server with 50 people with no lag at all. I am quite happy about this as there are no dedicated servers out yet. On a second note and the orginaly reasion for this post is i was trying to set up the squad .xml for the Arma 3 as it is also listed in the player profile. Being that it is still alpha i am assuming that the .xml feature is not yet set up. On the other hand this could also be my poor ability at setting up the xml to begin with. So my question here is, are there any other groups of people who are able to set up there .xml inside Arma3 and have it work and this is just my poor ability to set it up corectly. Or is it that the .xml feature is not yet ready for Arma 3 Thanks 10mm-Warrior (AKA) SnugglesTheBear.

Well here is the issue i have had with it. There was quite a few times i was unable to get a lock on a Tank that was in full view with no trees or bushes around while playing multiplayer, But from time to time i can still get a lock on a BMP that is some what behind trees and bushes. There have also been times when a BMP and a T72 or T90 are in the same field of view with the Jav and i was unable to lock onto the T72 or T90. So inreality i have had issue locking onto tanks in full view, but at the same time i can "accidently" lock on tanks behind cover. There have been plenty of other times also when in hard mode with a clear line of sight on a tank and then launching the Jav and finding there the missle never even hits the tank or even contacts the ground. So in short. i find that if you play on hard difficalty, and the using the Jav, you have a 50/50 chance of hitting the target. With the three suprize choises, Aim fire and hit the target you aim at. Aim fire and accidently hit a target you didnt intend to aim at. Or Aim, Fire and watch the missle go wildly high into space never to be seen again. Jesse

It appears that the Javelin is quite useless in the hard difficulty in single player and multiplayer. There has been quite a few times trying to shoot a tank in muliplayer and finding that eather the Javelin hits a unintended target that i couldnt see it was locked on. or just Flys thought the air. Is there any other way to tell if you have a confermed lock on the target other then in the easy setting for the game. Because at the hard Difficulty setting it seems its a hope shot because one can not get a confirmed lock on of a target. Also, is BIS plan on fixing this problem so the people who play on Hard difficulty are able to get a confirmed lock with out having to shoot and hope. Thanks Jesse

Hello. i am trying to set up a squad.xml for friend of mine who isnt very computer savy. On the other hand i also set mine up and had some issues my self. I have my squad.xml hosted over at armedassault.eu and everything thing seems to set up fine excpet for the photo. It says it needs to be a 256x256 png file. I do have the file that is a 256x256 and it is a png file but i get the error "Warning: image_info() => Uploaded file is not an image." and "Warning: image_info() => Image is not of "image/png" filetype.!" Any help would be nice. Thank you Jesse
