It's entirely possible that BIS haven't fully implemented the shooting mechanics yet. Given their experience with this kind of game you can be relatively confident they will sort it in the end.

You guys need to try this. Get in the pilot seat of the AH-9, look down at the miniguns in 1st-person and let rip :cool: Only seems to happen in 1st person though, probably why it slipped through the gap hehe

Yup. Essentially asking for that +fries on the side.

Sarlac: Yeah there is, I just checked :) red2blue (who also posted in this thread) made the tracker; http://feedback.arma3.com/view.php?id=1022

I personally think that combat pace's stability of the point-of-aim should be contextually based on the kind of ground the player is walking across. flat ground = just as it is right now Tall grass = not having a good time Rocky scree = ffffffffu~ Since the engine already detects the surface you are on to determine the kind of footstep sound to use it should be easy to do.

I wouldn't really say it changes anything difficulty wise for a new player as the weapons would behave the same way they do currently with the only exception that holding the trigger down brings the muzzle back down and the audible reset. So again for clarity; 1. If you press and hold the trigger the shot kicks the muzzle up into recoil, comes back down and settles back at point of aim 2. If you just tap and release the trigger, the shot kicks the muzzle up and off the target as it normally does in the game. 3. Releasing the trigger you hear the trigger reset with an audible *click*. 4. If the bolt/slide is to the rear; no click. The guys here who are old enough to have played Infiltration UT will remember that one thing we did (there goes my cover ;)) was make it so that with the .50 cal bolt action you could follow through the shot by holding down the mouse button and on release it then cycled the bolt. This is an extension of that idea. I'll create a ticket either this evening or tomorrow morning :)

Typically people react to getting hit by bullets (Suprise/pain/removal of support structure ie bone/incapacitation); small arm bullets themselves generally do not displace human beings. Those that might have the energy to do so will pass through the tissues of the human body before they get a chance.

Frankly speaking I'm fine with the MX rifles in the fictional canon of ArmA 3. In any case I'm sure there will be a comprehensive standardized mod set that will implement current day facsimiles of real weapons *coughACE3cough*. What I would like them to fix however is the 100 rounder on the MX LMG being longer than its bipod. :)

SOP for many armed forces is that the weapon goes on safe whenever the weapon is not shouldered. Mechanical safety is not a replacement for the cardinal rules of keeping your finger off the trigger and not pointing your gun at anything you aren't willing to destroy.

Safety = Take your finger off LMB and if you are going AFK lower your weapon. Maybe having that as a tooltip would be handy. As for malfunctions I'd also say overheating related malfs make the most sense in the context of a game. Just my 2c

Voice Coms does add a huge layer to the ArmA experience that cannot be understated. Personally I say get a mic and set it up for when you need it, but don't feel an obligation to use it. Last night I was playing a game of Headhunters with 3 strangers on a pub and all of two sentences were said in half an hour but the team gelled well enough that we all fell into lockstep with each other despite the silence. That in itself really complimented the "silent professional" feel of the mission :cool: But better to have and not need than to need and not have!

As far as I can tell via experimentation, tilt (pitching) is only accessible in the vehicle simulation in ArmA3~ While you are infantry the camera pitch is always oriented level with the horizon (Someone correct me if I'm wrong.). I recommend going into the editor and spawning an MH-9 or AH-9 to test your TrackIR, if memory serves it is currently the only vehicle in the game with full support for 6DOF. Also it's hella fun to fly! :) Every other Alpha vehicle I've gotten into does already appear to support tilt, just not pan or dolly.
