sorry but i just got a real laughter from the post you just posted..real life isnt some cheap sci fi movie or battlefield 2

are you kidding me? have you ever been in the army progamer?

thank you for a good answer :) i guess this thread can be closed now

looks good. but i have very little faith that the developers will implement something like this in vanilla arma 3..and it is a shame since you will need mods for that and not all servers will use those mods

yes, but i am talking about the helicopters and every planes ability to magicly see anything in 360 degres himself and insta lock onto everything. and the receiving end has no chance of survival because of lacking armor system or ground countermeasures such as trophy system

i would be happy if they just could add something similar to the carl gustav in arma 2..there you actually need to be good and know what to do if aiming further than 200 meters. but here they hit anything as far as you can see. but doesnt the arma developers realise something themself when they are making stuff like this into the game with poor armor system? how much hp does a missile really do to vehicles and how much hp does vehicles have?

ye, most of the times i hang back. but you know cod players are coming into arma and suiciding through enemy lines to get of 1 or 2 missiles before shoot down..and sometimes that unlucky person to recieve the missile is you because of the magic lock on ability, and that can sometimes be an annoyance

ok so the apache has a radar then..you can see it from the pictures that big bulb over the rotor blades, google some pics and you will eventually find it..looks like a circle looking unit above the rotor blades. but yeah, i think its about time that something gets done.. YOU guys cannot use it as an excuse that this is 2035 and blablabl then it must be like that...this situation has been in the arma series since forever..not only for arma 3. arma 1 had it...arma 2 had it...and now arma3? if people really think it is funny to have a godlike radar on every flying thing in this game then let them have it. it will just end with that noone will be using boats, cars, apcs and tanks since they are so crap compared to helicopters. i have been playing for like 90 hours or so of arma alpha and in all the servers i play where there are enemy helos with guided missiles, for example stratis battle server..there is always some helo that spots your apc miles out before you can even see the helicopter and boom you are dead. atleast give us some better protection on vehicles then to deploy some countermeasures..every time i see a missile flying against me while trying to shoot down the attacking helicopter i am just thinking oh well im dead and there is nothing i can do about that

yes, the apache have this so called radar thingy..but it is not infact a radar. it is more like an advanced gps unit that recevies data from other units about enemy units locations..and even so if it is a radar. how can you explain the every helicopter ingame has this feature? transport helis? where did they even hide the radar dish on the little bird? ---------- Post added at 11:03 ---------- Previous post was at 11:02 ---------- if helis get 360 radar i think it should just be fair that every vehicle gets anti missile launchers on the rooftops. they are even in use today, so i would guess 30 years in the future they would have implemented that on more vehicles ---------- Post added at 11:07 ---------- Previous post was at 11:03 ---------- something like this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n-Ri-kce6pA anti missile system

as helicopters work now..they can spot anything 360 degres to a couple of kms away..they can spam tab to make insta lock on without even seing the enemy..iin real life atleast you have to use your tv cam and lock onto the enemy manually before firing ur hellfire missile..here just use the magic radar to spot vehicles and tab it..done boom there is no way that planes or helicopters have the ability to use radar on ground targets, its a joke. even simple transport helicopters in arma have this magic radar to see anything. i dont think it even exists anything like that in real life except for dedicated radar stations or recon aircraft

i dont understand why every infantry get state of the art anti tank missile launchers then. since we have no lighter anti tank weapons this is the only thing we get that 1 shots every vehicle in the game

i find it really ridicoulous that every vehicle, plane and heli in arma 3 has super detailed interiors with exception of tanks and apcs..really..look at the comanche or ifrit. what more can you ask for a 3d interior? and what do we get for apcs..nothing..lets make a game where all the tank lovers get dissapointed yay..besides apcs are also very weak in current state..even the weakest rpg makes everything red and blows up the vehicle.,no countermasures for vehicles except of smoke?

as we all know arma series havent been that good at modelling real life weapons and damages since operation flashpoint and just giving us some hp based damage system. every single arma series game have the same modelling it seems like. and also all the vehicles are very dull and cant take any beating. just look at the m1 abrahams tank in arma 2, it is taken out by some small hand sized at weapon from the front. so why is it so that BIS is creating some other millitary game that is about 100x better than arma? if you look at some of these youtube videos it is pretty clear they have muuuch more features than we get in this Lite millitary "simulation" they even have real body armor values there, which we dont have in any arma games.. they have 3d interios and very detailed damage modell on tanks, which we also dont have in any arma games.. pls watch these links, and i wonder why they cannot implement stuff like this into Arma games, instead they make some other version thats much better but costs about 500 dollar for private version to get. what if they made this public to everyone and decreased the price a bit. im sure everyone would get it

it will never be to big!
