Problem being that some missions use vehicles not in the Alpha

I loled hard!

 

[brandonwh64]

Lol i am trying this!

just take the "addons" folder of your a2 installment and put it into a3/@arma2/addons and select the "mod" in your ingame mod browser. You will have everything from a2, plus menues, ui, errors, errors and more errors. There should be some decent people around who can really port mods and ... Well, whole games but this is the fastest way.

The problems are that none of the old models have physics, nor chest vests or helmets, so they cant carry any ammo. Vehicle dont have physic, just the old ones from a2, also they just drive with idle sounds because the new engine wants proper sounds for each 500 rpm...

Then you cannot run with pistols, or when you dont have any weapons (with old models though)... And some other weird bugs i heard of... Didnt played the alpha for myself yet, dont got a key so far corze i wanted to wait for the alpha so people can check it out and keep me posted about a3 in general and stuff...

I didn't want to splurge out too much so I just got the base Arma 3 edition. And there is no way I'm getting a second 680........ Although I would trade mine for 2 660 Ti's.

 

[Killer_Rubber_Ducky]

I am currently hosting a mission called Operation Neptune.
Also now have FRAPS and the FPS in game is ~28 multiplayer have not tested it in SP

MSI afterburner recording does not make the FPS tank.

Ill be uploading some footage from a Seize Camp Maxwell match

Battleguns has a Wasteland server for ArmA 3 now.

Think of it as future proofing... I'll have a 27" Newcrossover before the end of the year

Anyone having issues with f**king idiot teamkillers, trolls and griefers?

I swear I had 3 of them joined at least 5 of my games, moment they spawned in they either satchel charged and killed 8 out of the 10 other players or they just RDM'd and team killed 3 or 4 team mates before getting killed themselves then disconnecting from server.

then I had this crazy griefer who was probably completely stoned and kept chasing me and using direct voice chat to shout at me and try and talk to me. I dont care to talk to idiots so I didnt reply. He ended up teamkilling almost the whole team because he lobbed a grenade or fired a AT-Rocket at where the rest of the squad was arming up at an enemy weapons cache.

I had griefers join and kill almost the entire team before disconnecting 3 times in one game. Worst one was when the stoned guy kept chasing me and asking me if i was the 'REAL' captain crunch -since that was my profile name.

the internet is full of these fucking morons that shouldnt even be allowed to go near a computer or touch a mouse & keyboard even if it isnt plugged in.

 

[brandonwh64]

Yea I just joined an armory server were people were Tkin so I joined the fun and they did not like that too much since they banned me!

 

[ALMOSTunseen]

It's just all the little kiddie's having fun with physx.

Sounds like I need to get this game.

Do it!!

Also pick up another 670 cuz this game looks totally beautiful. It has to be turned up!!

At 1080p, a single GTX 670 is all that's needed. Hell, I'm running it maxed out (minus prost-process effects, I don't like motion blur) at 1440p.

Haha, welcome to Arma. It can be a magical experience!

I just wanna jihad everything.

 

[erocker]

I just wanna jihad everything.

Then this game is for you.

Seriously that Battleguns wasteland Arma II mod is right up your alley. You can literally load yourself up with bombs, sneak in to the enemies base and blow it all to hell.

Wanna be some military cop that patrols the map and guns down bad guys? You can do that.

Want to be a terrorist troll that plants bombs in a port-o-potty at a military base? You can do that too.

well Im not new to arma - I usually play on the 7thCav server on OA which gets its fair share of idiots that do nothing but RDM and ram the chinook and transport chopper with a tank or APC in the staging area killing at least 10-20 guys everytime.

In this case, ARMA III is a new game. players should still be exploring the game not griefing other players who are trying to enjoy it.

Obviously this will all change when the final game is released and admins can set up rules and have other admins to boot and bann trouble makers.

as for the extra GPU, my 680 chugged a little, with SLi everything just runs so unbelievably smooth even if the scaling isnt even close to 90% just yet.

The game will only run better with time though once they optimise it and better GPU drivers are released.

I just wanna jihad everything.

I havent seen anyone use C4 just yet - Only satchel charges.
