    PhysX Discussion (dev branch)

    Haven't watched lately any changes in vehicles physx but I'd like to point out that most vehicles still have kind of moon physx. For instance while driving the hunter vehicle in bumpy fields at 50-70km /hr, the vehicle is lifted ( jumps ) bit too easily and the impacts are too soft, so vehicles could use bit more gravity factor if that makes sense.

    What everyones thought on the .45 acp and rookie sound? I find it just downright ...funny. On the other hand I quite like the lynx and the new opfor marksman rifle ( dragunov? ). Although the dragunov or whatever its called would suit the .45 acp bit more as I like it's punchy sound.
  4. I wouldn't mind this idea as the ai are incompetent of anything and - Forward FAST FAST FAST LEFT LEFT FAST LEFT FAST LEFT FAST RIGHT FAST....makes me want to jump out off the fucking window
  5. Sorry to see this price hiking and unfortunately that's just how it is, just like when PC hardware RRP is say $300 in US - it is also Eur300 in EU :( And I believe you won't be able to buy it off of steam in different region as that would violate their / steam policy. Not sure how it'd work if one were to gift said game though?

    Priority of Bugfixing and features of BIS

    You're right that MP always came as second thought in arma games. It's always been there but afaik BI never denied / confirmed that their main focus is MP. That said I personally spend 90% wandering MP and I'd go as far as assume that the majority of players is focused on MP also. If BI place MP scene as a second though than I don't know what to say...they'd massively underestimate / misjudge what most players these days ( 2013 ) are interested to play. Actually not what to play but rather who with or who against. Once again my honest opinion ( but also an assumption ) is that due to trickey AI the lack of support / proper focus on MP is likely one of the reasons

    Priority of Bugfixing and features of BIS

    If I were to find excuse I'd hope features like weapon resting, wind, walkable vehicles ( I hope much refined physx just need bit more time and they're not simply done with it ) will come in some sort of DLC / expansion like the operation arrowhead but what I think is that BI is never going to bother with most of these features and if I were to assume and /or guess why - The usual gibberish about how costy and time consuming it is, therefore ever to be bothered with, or the lack of resources and manpower or another (climate:colorsilver) related excuses. Whatever the reason, the ( undoubtedly fine AAA title visuals { except explosions,mid textures and PIP things not so much though } I personally consider visuals nothing more than selling point and not the most desired around arma. I might sound like utterly unhappy / ungrateful with the game but its always been like this so far - Arma never feels like complete or even finished game and the saying comes to mind - a step forward and two back... The game however might need to be definitely judged in about a year ( or even much later ) from now but one thing I know is I won't be getting another instalment ( arma4 ) for it's nice graphics if the core features are left untouched once again.

    Firing Mode Reset Glitch

    Yea it IMO should, I imagine making it client side shouldn't pose any issues? Either way I'd rather full auto and manually switch to semi than the other way around but each to their own I guess The biggest issue with this though is if the gunner change position in vehicle for whatever reason ( like open hatch) it also resets to default like sabot where I'd want heat ready.

    Slatts WIP thread

    Good to see some of the classic weaponry coming back and the M14 is kick ass rifle! :) Well done so far, cant wait to try them out

    Firing Mode Reset Glitch

    Nope me neither so I gave up. The FB at this stage is nothing more than a wish list unless game breaking bug appears. Anyhow, this bug is in arma games since what..Arma 1? just as the one that still turns the engine on while pressing brakes or a turret :rolleyes:
  11. You misunderstood. What I was trying to say is that with more HW coming down the road, already released cards will have to come down in price. Maybe not by a lot but If there is to be 780 Ti version, nice cards like evga 770 4Gb or 7970 Ghz card editions will get even more accessible money wise, not to mention potential variety of free games
  12. Few HW sites hint at possible release of GTX 780 Ti version which could move a bit the prices of cards like 770 / 7970. As bear said, I'd wait little longer and see http://hexus.net/tech/news/graphics/61445-nvidia-geforce-gtx-780-ti-specifications-revealed/
  13. You should be looking at the best gaming PC your current budget allows you to buy and that is mostly not the case with pre-build systems. If I were you I'd get unlocked i5 CPU or better yet have your buddy build a PC for you or I am sure if you pop into any half decent PC store they will build it for you. Another option would be going through few pages here as I am sure there will be nice and balanced build recommendations for what hardware to get or just ask away here. The bottom line is that you will never get the best for your money with most / all pre-build systems. They will sound impressive at first but closer look usually reveals the opposite. I am confident that nearly? zero forum users in here would recommend anything other than high clocked intel chip and I'd be one of them. As sad as it may seem AMD chips just doesn't cut it for games like arma. Bite the bullet and change the platform

    PhysX Discussion (dev branch)

    This would be fantastic feature to have. As I am no programmer I've no clue how this can be achieved but I if I recall BF2 from 2005? gave the players the ability to step onto and walk seamlessly on any object in game. But by the looks of it walking on moving objects wasn't spot on either. Still though, was better than nothing

    A quantum leap - Arma 4

    I see what you did there ;) Nonetheless, bring it!

    Unrealistic weapons damage

    Agreed, another element that needs more attention. I liked how AI in arma 2 dropped / threw away their AK's after being critically hit. Maybe wasn't perfect but it added much more immersion. I'd say they're not done with it yet but acknowledgment would be nice

    Editor Undo button!

    I am still horrible at the editor and this is exactly what I stumbled upon the other day, undo function. Would no doubt be helpful to newcomers as well. A good suggestion!

    Development Blog & Reveals

    Looking good! The last img reminds me of F16 ( which is a good thing ). Now only if they came with afterburner too, that would be something. ( ok and cluster bombs ;) )
  20. Hopefully this will be the right place - I was wondering if there are any plans to memorize fire mod for vehicles as well for rifles? The issue I am referring to is if I set ( eg. SMG ) to full auto and board a vehicle, it will restore to single fire, as soon as I leave the vehicle ( either as gunner, driver, passenger or step out of the vehicle ) Unfortunately the same isseu applies to vehicle turrets / main gun. If I were to be in gunner seat and loaded HE projectiles and jump off the vehicle ( or again, just switch positions for , say, driver ) the HE round will not be remembered and will default to APSI rounds. I believe this is something I experienced in arma 1 and 2 and was hoping it could get looked into.
  21. Wondering what is the stance of BI & devs on gore implemented in future arma or perhaps even patched in to arma 3 at some point, or would this be something better left to modders to impress us with? Would gore affect possible sales due to changed rating in some countries? I don't consider having gore as an absolute must have feature in any game but I admit I wouldn't mind seeing something along the lines ( even somewhat simplified ) of gore in arma game.

    Arma 2 vs Arma 3 release

    I didn't buy arma 2 right at release so can't really comment but I remember MP was still unplayable due to units warping like hell and massive, 2 minute long desync on near every server, which as I experienced got ported to arma 3 over again. Rocks are still glitchy and game feels very unfinished with some occasional performance hiccups ( in MP only really though ) but A3 release must be considerably better than what any other arma was.

    The what have you bought thread

    Grats to your price, I've never won even socks to keep me worm lol :p ;) If you have a smartphone you could just create a hotspot on your smartphone and then just connect the ipad to your phone wirelessly, so that your smartphone will act as portable modem. All that would be needed is a data plan from your current cell provider. While not uber convenient as having cellular tablet ( with 3G ) this is very simple and easy workaround ( Instead of paying good 150 quid more for having the 3G in tablet and using it annually only once lol :) ) --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Purchased good while ago but this thing still manages to put smile on my face BK electronics XLS200, 275W amp with 10'' driver in sealed enclosure. In world of sub's, I think I've got really really lot of bang for the money spent ( pun intended ) ;)
  24. Aaaand here lies the problem, isn't it? With such an attitude, the day may come and there will be 20 die hard players / customers left to develop the game for. I'll be very honest, if you allow - BI has got very spoiled by their incredibly loyal, tolerant and supportive fanbase. It could be just me but I have not come across more supportive folk like on these forums. Yes, there are many rant threads from people who are pissed at something and those that are pissed but don't post or post but do so in a constructive manner. My point is, he's right (@GottyPlays). It's understandable BI is nowhere near the budget of BF / COD games but the comparison is not fair to begin with. But as a new customer that he is, the fact that BI is going to finish the game as bug free and as polished within reasonable amount of time is for them nothing but hope of honoring some kind of promise by primarily, business company. In my humble opinion, as a plain gamer and customer, is that while in no way I am trying to discredit the amount of work of a small-ish team put into arma 3 so far, I have a feeling that the majority expected far, far more polished game and especially attention to detail, which I'd say BI never bothered with. I deliberately said never bothered, because if management wasn't so tight, the devs would have at least a chance to work on some but the ball still rolling, half assed attempts at every corner of the game but with even less content. I look forward to how the game progresses though
  25. If we could just keep it to faster / heavy breathing when exhausted, that's all the feedback I'd need from my virtual soldier
