What's the point of playing Vanilla Style?
LeeManatee replied to matty1053's topic in ARMA 3 - GENERAL
most likely you play ace1 mod, since ace2 fatique system is rather forgiving. -

pretty much that aswell as lacking some basic features like gun resting, separate weapons controll in aircrafts/hinds, wind, fatique simulations, med supplies, proper armor simulation and so on. -
i use trackir aswell. disabled look on mouse so weapon stays in center and don't mess up with movement/aiming. and yeah will be extremelly better to lean head left or right to lean instead of going left or right.

Arma 3 Community Alpha - Announcement!

no, you can't max out arma 2 with these settings aswell. check out my sig -
you don't need any mods for that. just play around in editor a bit.

i just tried pmc confirmation mission on recruit difficulty. i ended up ignored by enemy troops, the max i got that is 2 rpk shots from 1 meter which i'm survived agains all common sence, and i ended up killed only when 2 soldiers tried to kill me, it took quite awhile. never expected stuff like this tbh. only time i played arma on regular difficulty was 1st time i played arma 1 and stuff was waaaaaay harder. (that was my first actual arma/ofp experience, tho i played ofp at friends pc, cuz i was lame kid without computer ;) good old times ) anyway, dear bis, don't dump up arma3 -

ACE2 fatigue system compared to ACE1 become more forgiving, so idk what the problem. -

i actually changed my mind. there is no need in steamworks. just build in launcher/updater/mod manager in arma3

if this is what you mean, then fuck yeah for ace mode in vanilla. -

you are extremelly wrong. ace is quite popular, and the only reason why "majority" of players don't use it, because it's a bit more complicate to install then other mods, and hey, there are shitloads of ace tutorials on youtube. so get your facts straight. if people will know about six updater from start or arma 3 will have build in mod updater, there would not be any complications. this is the only problem around mods that include several folders. -
ah.. excuse my ignorance then. if steamworks means game servers etc.. idk. gamespy/steam doesn;t really matter for me. it should work like clockwork, thats all i actually care.

perfect point here. making mod community to deal with minor fixes all the time over and over again isn't really good. also ace1 introduced backpacks, drag animations, weapons n such what was later included in arma 2 and OA. while such things as separated weapons controll in aircrafts/helis still not there, aswell as weapon resting which was included in ace 1. lots of minor things to do/fix, but hey, details is what matter. exacly. -

hehe, you are probably right, tho i try out some new games from time to time ; ) but still stuck with these ^ hell if i know, most likely when people read/hear the word "ArmA" they imagine overcomplicated extremely hardcore military simulator which can run only on NASA supercomputers, while the game is plain simple and not that scary when you get hang of it. and when they read/hear "mod" "Zombies" they imagine stuff like garrys mod/day of defeat/left4dead, and after all these youtube videos/whatever they come up with straight idea that dayz is a new "stalker", thinking like this mod is very distant from original ArmA, while... VVV but how many people know that? ever played warfare? this is exacly pvpvpve you are talking about aaaaanyway ArmA always needed (and still need) more promotion of it's benefits and showcase gamemodes and mods on youtube, so casuals will see that game is awesome, but not their average cod/bf. when you see a massive assault with 5-7 helicopters over your head, tanks entering the town, lavs, cars, planes shooting rockets while you and your squad mates rushing into town with chaos all around and commander yell on radio to move, this is not what you can see/experience in any other games. the point is to show it right, to make it obvious that arma is huge scaled and epic -
speaking about arma 2 and steam: i don't even start steam to play arma. i use six updater and i don't see anything wrong in buying arma via steam. i run it from time to time to get updates etc, but thats it. simple n shit.

pff.. casual. arma & ace only. this is what really enjoyable. ever felt like you want more toys to play with? and hey, what about immersion? not even full converion mods but stuff like ACRE. -
this is WAY too much. strong bolded no for making aiming simple. ofp/arma series meant to simulate real weapons so it must not getting dumbed down for the sake of cod/bf croud. there are enough arcade options such as crosshair, additional armor, IFF and such.

cs is phenomenon. it doesn't apply to any other games case, tho you can say that domination/evolution is arma-like "dust2" thanks g-d i don't play any other games then arma, il-2 and dcs series. -

LeeManatee replied to LockDOwn's topic in ARMA 3 - GENERAL
emm cti is pretty much pvp and pretty much replayable, so i guess this is possible, but in case of cti it was a bit complicated to get hang of. -
i know. thats why i said: since atm server list is flooded with dayz crap. and what kind of people hop in into arma reasoning it only for dayz. and most people i met, aka 99,9% don't play arma without this mod, what is some kinda sad, since it doesn't cover even quarter of features arma has (and mods like ace/acre) i hate quoting myself but just to clear out my post for you.
-
I don't mind any zombie crap untill it goes separately and don't flood my servers list but yeah, you are right about money. tho i'm rather sceptical about people who bought arma for dayz only. stalker fanboys. derp. Ofcause there is a slight chance that they will eventually play arma as milsim, find out how awesome the game really is, but hey we live in a real world, not a dream. ; )

erm.. you don't even played arma yet. the point is to add replayable good quality pvp missions into vanilla. noone is talking about changing arma formula, because there should not be any changes. just improvements? adding new features and polishing the game over and over again. -
graphics is gimped in free version. pay for combined operations, get used to it and then go and download ace2 mod to play hardcore mode.

russians ofc ;)
