they nerfed it into the ground, on release it was the best 1xscope hands down, standard scope, with a big green tint, and every enemy highlighted yellow out to around 150m http://i4.ytimg.com/vi/o9Jw8xFQLbs/maxresdefault.jpg

god only knows if the AI can actually land a heli in that condition and whats "base", the intial waypoint? a invis helipad closest? best bet might be nearest open space of length XYZm, then the onboards move as per waypoints. otherwise just make the AI ditch, since its FUBAR as far as the mission is concered
-
and as was said during a simliar thread for ARMA2, its up to the map maker to balance by other means, such as the opfor in ARMA 2 had far better AA, so BLUFOR had to either get more air assests, or a better postion to start from thats the kind of balance i want, not blufor is just a diffrent skin of OPFOR
-
thats pretty much exactly what i saw, its like it knew what to do, but it wan't allowed to crash out of the "mission" so it tried to carry on, and everytime it slowed down it went mental
-
no tail rotar is simple, go high, rock out, make an attempt at landing in a slide at speed to couter tourque. the AI tries to stay at the altituide its waypoint is at, and tries to return to that waypoint (probally due to not being able to deviate enoguh of the projected path between waypoints) so it dosn't crash, but its not going to land either. anyone know what happens when you shot out the rotor when the helis in motion
-
i spent an hour with the new snipers doing that. the AI also can't handle the tail getting shot out. it dosn't crash but it goes all over the place trying to return to where its meant to be

Flares provide only minimal illumination after 0.58?
nimrod123 replied to Magirot's topic in ARMA 3 - BETA DISCUSSION
how does it look under NVG's? either way that dosn't seem right, it may be something left over from the dynamic lighting changes -
and before someone says they should have a better fix, they do, the entire IGUI is getting a overhaul for beta, making it fairly customizable according to the dev team

whats it like closer to the ground? also if its not a bug and goes in the feddback tracker, they normally lock it pretty quick anyway -
what i would like is the periscopes to be fully useable, even if they cheat a bit by making it a rotating camera for simplicties sake. the m1a1 was not fun to drive turned in

thats what i think he means as well, but i heard nothing on the live stream, (watched later by twitch) unless there is a actually post on this, i remain hopefull for the people that really cares sake. i personally won't use it but i'm sure other will -
he's not to close, they used to have enough of a turn to make it about 15 degrees off centerline at that distance. i wonder if its like the bug i saw on the live stream, where you get the "locked up" icon stright away, before it actually locks

they had never promised that any of the helis that shiped with the game would have it. they said that they would try and have the engine capable of taking the config for it if modders wanted to set it up -
Arma scripting changes to prevent insane hacks? Any chance?
nimrod123 replied to CervidaeKosmonaut's topic in ARMA 3 - QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
the whole point of headless client is to remove server load completely from the server, so the server can worry about what everything but AI, and the AI has a dedicated system, multithreading dosn't do that, as the load is still on the server and depending on quality you will bottle neck it no matter what multi threading may improve the single player experince and make servers with significant dormant resources work better, but not the majority of the mid range stuff -

nimrod123 replied to CervidaeKosmonaut's topic in ARMA 3 - QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
for a multiplayer game? with MP mods? its normally a zero sum game, espically many player (so FPS) mp your suggestion plays absoulte hell with stuff like the headless client. and if you make a exception for that client you leave a massive loophole. -

nimrod123 replied to CervidaeKosmonaut's topic in ARMA 3 - QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
you mean something so sercure, that your methods (which i will point out are basicly hacking), are blocked. thats the problem, either you allow alot of unsupervised user content in a MP context and risk people abusing that, or you make it sercure and don't let people change stuff -

nimrod123 replied to CervidaeKosmonaut's topic in ARMA 3 - QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
thats fine until you have 128 man missions and a couple of hundred AI plus all the waypoints and triggers, because at that point you either have a massive server, or your server fails since most of the server side stuff process at server FPS (like AI). they have to chose between the massive coop/PVP options or reduce the scale. the second that scale goes and it basically become RO2 with a bit more sand box they will lose a-lot of the original player base (probally to something like VBS2 or simply back to a depopulated ARMA2). this game was built on playing with people you trust in a very non pub atmosphere, the growth of pubs is what F'ed it, not the insercurites in the engine that let it be what it is you also clearly don't know the history of dayz -
Is the muzzle flash too visible?
nimrod123 replied to armachao999's topic in ARMA 3 - BETA DISCUSSION
cordite went out of maistream use before WW2, it was only rarely used during it. by the end of WW2 we where already using 2 base powders regually and 3 base as well. most triple base powder produce limited flash due to inert nitrogen, and hardly any smoke either. its intirely likely that in 20 years time there will be no flash in anything but large cannons (tanks and artilery), and the smoke will be a minor haze -
I miss tyre skidding sound, Can we expect have it back ?
nimrod123 replied to pawelkpl's topic in ARMA 3 - BETA DISCUSSION
oh i thought you meant converting a key press into analogue. i thought if you had peadals you could use them properly. If you can't put it on as a issue on the feedback tracker (See sig) -
it was in the first build, you got to see it in the vechile showcase

thats for the joystick axis -

nimrod123 replied to pawelkpl's topic in ARMA 3 - BETA DISCUSSION
so max collective, max reverse collective. hate to tell you thats what we already, helis just default to hover (so neither accelerate or reverse) when you arn't pressing anything -

qhow do you intergrate analogue controls when 90% of the user base dosn't have a analogue input? -

yep, a analogue input -
Better optimisation at release ?
nimrod123 replied to drakedaeron's topic in ARMA 3 - QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
optimisation, the new buzzword... you might see slight improvement as time passes, and more once they decleare pre gold (no more changes, only fix simple bugs, go to validation and final release compile) you might also see massive drops if they add a much toted feature that dosn't play nice
