Terremer

terremer hit me up if you want to play coop as well, its pretty fun

i think thats one where you have to spam the button, try that

yeah semler the flares are there but its not a sunburst anymore, its a small glint, maybe the size of their head. and it only works on sights above an acog-ish zoom i believe

Campaign is awesome, feels a lot like cod kinda but its still fun Coop is great, its like mini SP missions, apache, stealth, urban defense Starting MP now, the beta was decent, should be fun overall i really like it! edit: had an awesome round on this bazaar map or whatever its called, its basically karkand but a big square of just urban fighting, with points all over it, so you run in circles and cap and re cap..and its got like 2 lavs....good shit

:( well it's released mid week anyways, it'll get super busy on that weekend once everyone buys and downloads/installs it

Im so excited...apparently the pre load emails are going out today to download before launch...The campaign looks like BC2 story line but vastly improved gameplay (JETS), so it should be great! Also it has coop which is completely awesome. Oh, and then there's the multiplayer

I vote yes, i get tired of blufor alll day long, maybe i just need to go play some deployment though. Also ive never seen the blufor bots so idk how hard it would be...although running a squad with insurgents again armor and such would be a fun challenge!

My friend sent me this link, it looks awesome! He also said that it would weed out the casuals as it causes pain due to bad gameplay...hehehe.

hehehehe, but it's so much fun. We put one of these on that scaffold thing in the tunnels entrance as defense, waited till the attackers were way past it and started spawning there...it was fun, but yeah it's incredibly broken . If the defense manages to get one in the bushes at the start, they just sit around prone in them and it breaks everything. The beacon in 2142 was better, it could only be used by SL and you had to pod drop in, which made it really obvious when someone spawned on it.

Just finished some solo night ops on the Domination server..got a ton of screenshots in! Managed to the the radio tower of the main AO, and the tank repair station secondary mission: Calling artillery on this huge group of infantry This guy was sooooo close..thankfully he didnt see me Finally planting the satchel Detonating after crawling back out of sight calling artillery on this radar thing...I tried sniping them afterwards, but i didnt have a silenced one and they hit me with artillery about a minute later, lol at the side mission, calling artillery on some hostile vehicles (i REALLY should have just loaded on rockets instead, i didnt even bring a launcher) detonating from the side hill...too bad i missed one and had to sneak back past two shilkas that i couldnt seem to hit with arty to satchel the last tank) side mission accomplished! Must say, sneaking around at night alone is kinda fun

i'm SO glad they included this, the metro map got so old even in alpha

I'm not sure what the hell happened here, i know i hit open chute but it didnt open till i hit it the second time (Which was about 80m above ground)...and all i saw when i smashed into the ground was this massive explosion! I then saw this after being revived...I think i literally cratered! Self-explanatory, relaxing after a long assault on this AO The aftermath of setting off, idk, about 6-8 satchels at once on a tank repair station...with the blastcore visuals, this looked insane! I also couldnt hear for about a minute due to the roar of the explosions.. had a lot of fun last night guys!

=VG= SemlerPDX LAN_WROTE ... And you better have your chips in line, cause this game likes multiple cores, several Gig's of ram, fast hard drives, and $200 graphics cards just to get 45FPS at a nice texture setting (and then you get into the shit with bombs going off.....you get the idea). Yeah my rig is good, its almost 2.5 years old now but its kicking strong. I can run the demo on high/max settings smoothly. =VG= SemlerPDX LAN_WROTE ... The enemies alone keep me from going back to BF2:PR. Seriously, these bots can think, and flank, and in ACE mod, they are a serious intelligence to be dealt with. Yeah this is a huge plus. On bf2pr coop, the bots are only hard because they aimbot and such, but they're annoying because they just run straight at you and are really predictable. well i think im going to get it then, ill probably be playing next week if i get it downloaded by then! Thanks for the feedback

Thanks for the replies guys. I do like all the modding that you can do to it, always keeps the game fresh instead of playing the same exact maps and settings every time. I might have to look in to modding if i get it, i'm in school for computer science and would be fun to do some scripting and such. And yeah i guess expecting everyone to work together is a little optimistic, but i figured since arma was a little more expensive and graphically demanding it would weed out the 'casual' players (i have no problem with people who dont take games seriously, as long as it isnt in a game made to be played seriously such as pr/arma). Also thanks for the feedback on the steam version, ive got lots of games on steam and im quite fond of it.

Hey guys. I've been wanting to try out Arma, but im still kinda on the fence. Everyone always drops in the prbf2 channel on teamspeak and says how arma is all great and awesome and that we should stop playing and go play Arma instead. The PRBF2 coop server has been really bad the last few days, weve been getting all these new players or people who just mess around and dont teamplay at all, and its been hard to get a good game in. I got the arma2: free demo thingy, and its pretty cool so far. But you cant do much in it except some tutorials (which are mainly assets and troop leading, which i wouldnt be doing at the start anyways). I see that we've got two servers here and i always see a lot of people in the arma TS channels so i assume there'd always be people to play with. Anyone that's played both bf2PR and arma2, could you compare them a bit maybe? Also if i get arma, which version do i get? I read somewhere on here that the steam version of arma doesnt work quite right? And do i need the two DLC or just arma2 and OA? Thanks Terremer

Ooh this should be fun. However i really didnt like the metro map in the alpha (I hate the rush game type) and if they're using it again im not too happy. It was still pretty fun, however, we'll see how the beta goes.

Man i havent seen a slime since they first got patched in...didnt get a drop from it though =/

It's a lot of fun man, although if you havent played a sandbox game before it takes getting used to as there's really no set goal. Basically you just explore aroumd, gather resources, and build things.

Well it kinda blends in with the sand, but spotted this while sailing around tonight. Also started construction on a house, hope to finish it tomorrow, we'll see

Yeah usually when my steam games do weird things, I first run the file verification in steam. if that doesnt work i usually just flat out delete it through steam and then re download and install. If that doesnt work im really not sure. Its weird that you're crashing straight to desktop without any error message or anything at all.
