AI path-finding in the Walrus is still terrible. The AI gets itself stuck a lot requiring me to take manual control. In a couple of instances the AI has got a Walrus completely stuck on debris and I have had to bring out a second Walrus to ram it! Other than that, I am enjoying this beta much more than the previous ones. The enemy AI seems a lot less aggressive in that it doesn't hit island after island in quick succession, which for me is making it a lot more fun. You can still loose mantas very quickly if you are not careful, but this I don't mind as it makes you be more careful ;-) I think you need to fix the path-finding before release though - I can see that reviewers will pick up on this very quickly and it may take the shine off some of the reviews. I would seriously consider delaying to fix this, or at least make a very up front statement of intent that it will be fixed in a patch.

ScareYa - look a few posts back - you need to set the SHIFT and CTRL keys in the options menu. You will then be able to set multiple waypoints and select multiple craft.

Installing now....

On the basis that they must have gone gold by now for a retail release next week, I don't really see what they would gain by releasing another beta now. The only thing I could see them doing is to give P&C members early access. Either way, it's only a week away.

There is a tiny link to Six Updater in the Play with Six page - basically it is here; https://dev-heaven.net/projects/six-arma-updater/files

Take on Apache..... ;-)

You are running the server exe (arma2oaserver.exe) and not the normal exe I take it? You only usually get sound/video errors when you are trying to run the normal game exe.

Any clues in the rpt file?

Yep - it will work fine. To make it less of a hassle to launch use something like Six Updater or Play With Six. Because the launchers use the registry to discover where everything is installed, you won't have a problem.

That's exactly right. BattlEye has caught them being 'asshats' as you put it and they are banned. Only by purchasing a new game (i.e a new key) can they re-join the fight.

I have requested it be uploaded to the Six Updater network - this way it will get some temporary signatures and a Six Updater key so it can be played on a V2 protected server. Edit --> It is now on the six updater network complete with keys.

Considering you are asking this question in the section of the forum that is for people who have pre-purchased the game, your replies may be on the biased side ;-) It's an impossible question to answer really as it very much depends on what type of game you normally like. There is a new beta due out anytime now and the game itself is released in a week or so. It may be better to garner opinion once the game is released and there a few reviews out.

You can rename the .rpt, to .old. Retry ToH and it will create a new rpt file which should not be so big.

Not my intention! The majority spoke when they trialled it in the beta and I am happy to live with the majority decision! Fortunately most of the time I play as a grunt or I am flying choppers so it doesn't bother me too much!

Yeah, I hate it too, but I feel that it's here to stay. When driving boats it seems to work well, but for land vehicles I just can't get used to it. I would like to see a toggle or setup option for it.

Read this thread.

If you manage to put this together 7th_Serf, there is a thread for DAC resources which doesn't get used enough. It would be great if you posted you resultant DAC configs there. http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?100617-Dac-custom-config-resource/page6&highlight=DAC

You need to run Steam as administrator and then launch Operation Arrowhead - it should then install the DLC.

Weren't they at one point going to do some custom maps. Thought I read that somewhere?

Battleye is now supported in this beta it appears.

I think that the dog ate the installer! It could be worse - he could have said Tuesday.

Yes - you can see the BI Zazzle store here... http://www.zazzle.co.uk/bohemia_interactive

Well, I will eat mine if we get Beta 3 before go-live!

Hi, if you have not moved ACR then you need to remove the @ from the mod line; -mod=acr Ps. You do not need to move, or rename ACR unless you are using a launcher and are using a custom mod location.

Thanks - so I guess that this is for those servers with high player counts that were having player connection problems. I'll try it anyway just in case it has an adverse effect on servers that hardly anyone visits ;-)
