  1. Just give up now, the helicopters are currently in an un-flyable state in my opinion.

    Well, it's a good thing not everyone is you, because for an example, I can fly them very well. Just need some practice...

    Some advises:

    1. don't toggle free look when flying a helicopter. use it only when needed (unless you've got some kind of track ir).

    2. use the WASD and C,X only when you don't need to be very delicate with the helli. they do speed things up...

    3. don't land at 0 speed. honestly, when I am trying to land like that (at 0 speed) the helli starts to spin slightly, which makes the land longer...

    4. keep practice. if you think you are in danger, activate the auto-hover.


  2. This blows, never going to buy from this site again. Wish they had this version on Steam. After finally getting through and placing my order the page times out. I got no email or nothing but they made damn sure they took my money twice according to my bank account. The support page won't load up now and I need to tell them to give me what I paid for and give me my money back for the second purchase. What the hell do I do now?

    First of all, try not to panic. I did when I tried to transfer money, and if I had refresh that page I would have been in some deep mess that you got into (but seems I got to a whole different mess of my own with BI).

    Contact support@bistudio.com, support your statement with actual proofs that you have (let's say, a bank bill or so that shows BI took from you that money).

    See how it will play along there. Just try to remember 2 things:

    1. It's a passing thing. I guess they really didn't expect such desire for arma 3.

    2. trying to talk to them via email is not going to be the most fun thing to do. They have a lot of mess with the store, and all the known problems we found with the purchase system so far that they need to fix. They won't answer right away, probably.


  3. People aren't pissed that others are playing the game, they're pissed that they spent ~$90 on a game so they could support the BIS development of the game and they didn't get what they payed for, and the comment of people who payed 30 dollars for the game and they can play it is well justified.

    I guess all we can do is wait.

    I got DDE version through BI store, and couldn't active it also.

    SE is not the only thing messed up here, also DDE.

  4. You can see a nice example, I think, in War Thunder.

    You have a lot of ways to crash there, though I think it works on HP system because only sometimes you get a bad hit from a single bullet.

    When you ram into other plane, your wing could rip off, or your engine will die and etc...

    They should use kind of system like that, but when a part actually dis-attached from the helli, it won't disappear rather just fall on the ground like in halo.


  5. I know about it being in the about the site (my bad, I thought I had mentioned that in the post), I was just noticing that its been mentioned at least twice so it might be more important to the ARG than we think (as in, you might need lots of things from the alpha, not just a few).

    Yeah I originally thought that about the 2012 thing (that it didn't make sense), but if they had designed the ARG previously but simply waited until now to grab a domain and start it, it would still kinda make sense.

    No I actually think that it's outdated information. At the beginning, the thought was that we would get to play the alpha even in 2012, and maybe bi will release it in 2012. We all know what happened in the end. Due to problems there were some delays. I think the main part is to play the alpha, at least in that clue.

    What if, all the clues about the monument were actually guiding us to get there in the alpha?

    Regarding the alpha. There are 3 servers now. Last time I checked gamespy wrote there are total of seven players on the three servers in total, yet only one was shown in the chart.


  6. Ok, if you say so.

    I hope the next request would be more helpful.

    I thought about using the Internet to find all of the web pages that the site http://m26.node-42.rv4a3.org/ has. We know that one of them is http://m26.node-42.rv4a3.org/stats, but it requires a username and password that we do not have.

    I looked it up online, and it seems like that when you search "site:domain.com" google will show-up everything that related to that domain.com. I tried doing this on http://m26.node-42.rv4a3.org/ with no luck. Anyone knows other way maybe? I think that if we find everything related to the domain to the terminal we would find a clue/help with the findings.


  7. So, if the altis quest is legit, we need to ask the following :

    1.It said that the alpha is part of it, it also said that the answer could be found in two weeks.

    Does it mean that we should expect the alpha in the next weeks?

    1. Maybe, but is it likely? I remember BI saying they would publish further information about the release this month. Probably that new email JH has, is the info of the release date.

    The rest are fine questions, but it takes a smarter man then me to answer them.


  8. that means we are too stupid to figure it out

    I don't think so.

    I think that there are so many people looking into it from here and other places (best I know is reddit), probably more people then the ones who made this.

    I think that they didn't publish all secret clues at once, and that's why we are getting to dead ends.

    Tried to search WRRGA, came up with none from google.


  9. The file m26.node-42.rv4a3.org/dial-up.ogg is giving a 404 error.

    And are you calling me a troll because you are quoting my post?

    Yeah I saw the 404.

    And about the troll thing, HUGE mistake, I copied this quote:

    Alpha will be released on 03.23.2013!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! look at arma 3 site

    I'm sorry, I will fix it at once.

    it could be that the background of the image hiding something?

    (http://www.arma3.com/)

    if someone can try to put in black and white or negative thanks =)

    I do not think that there is an image, because I played it a bit with Chrome Dev Console, disabled the black and that "image" went with it. under that black screen there is a white screen as far as

    Myke;2303156']We found morse code into the messege.mp3 that says "WRRGA"

    Here is the spectrum of the audio messege :

    Hope this will helps' date=' cheers[/quote']

    I know for a while now that you can deliver even binary code through voice, and I though I would check into it, though I don't have the tools at home, only tomorrow I could try to do so.

    How did you discovered it?


  10. I think we need to leave the FTP for now.

    It has too much stuff inside it. Maybe they are trying to cover a clue, maybe not-who knows?

    Yet, there are too much stuff there to scan...

    Imo, we should focus a bit more on JH's limnos times, because it's a direct communication channel with everyone of us (we just need to go to that website).

    Now, is it just me, or when I refresh the terminal there is no dialup sound?


  11. With regards to the FTP: the fact that is back up strikes me as meaning there is something important in there. I note that it now shows the contents of ftp.ofpr.info (the address I previously found 'embedded'(?)) rather than just an empty "ofpd" folder.

    I think that the FTP is a troll. somebody see the opportunity and took it to troll.
