  1. Speaking of the little things, I still would love to have a way to toggle the forward motion, so I could walk forward without holding the 'w' key. (Maybe 'shift+W->W' ?) That is maybe not so much related to immersion, but it would really increase my gameplay experience... I do strive for realism, but only in some aspects. And some nights I go more 'all in' on realism than others. I would like to be able to take a drink of a soda while maintaining SA. Right now I have the option of loosing SA (hand off mouse), or loosing formation (hand off keyboard).. If I could walk without holding 'w' I could spoil myself to a soda or a smoke while scanning my sector :cool:. It would be especially cool when marching to a checkpoint or objective from several klicks out... Also with trackIR you would be able to walk and look around hands off (in safe areas ;)). That would be more realistic imo.

    I would like to see this implemented on vehicles as a throttle lock (or cruise control), especially ground vehicles.


  2. I have an idea for a feature I would like to see implemented in A3. After driving many ground vehicles across countless kilometers of terrain, I would like to see an Action Menu item while in a moving vehicle titled "Throttle Lock" which would essentially keep pressing the forward key after I have depressed it. This will keep the vehicle moving across hills and valleys until disabled. It will also save wear on many keyboards and fingers!

    Some may say "that's what macro keys are for" but I do not own a G15 or similar keyboard with such fancy features. This feature makes sense in a realism setting as these vehicles most likely carry such equipment. Also, it would be cool. Thanks!


  3. Ok, installing the beta patch only worked on one mission, and that was Insurgency. It seemed to play that ok, but as soon as I loaded a Domination map, it crashed right away. Also, I found this in the beta change log, but I'm not sure its been fixed in my case:

    [76870] Fixed: Flood in RPT file caused by lines like "Object 2:200 (type Type_268) not found."

    I am still getting this. Do I need to post the report?


  4. Hello BIS Forums

    I am having major issues with my game after SP1 for Win7 x64! No matter what map I load, what mods, or what server, the game will crash to desktop in about two minutes of joining a server. I am using the Steam version on this machine:

    Gigabyte EP45T-UDL3R

    Intel Q9550 @ 2.83 (stock no OC)

    Gskill 4 Gb DDR3 1333 Cas 9

    EVGA GTX 460 SE (Driver ver. 266.58, Physx 09.10.0514)

    I have already uninstalled and re-installed OA once with no change. Changing video settings doesn't effect duration until crash either. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

    Here is the last of the report file:
