Arma 3: Altis Life

Think I will give the Arma 2 Mod a blast before splashing out 40 beans on Arma 3. From what I have seen it looks worth it just to play this mod!

Do you know how or where you install the Arma 2 version from? I had a look last night but I can't seem to find a reliable guide :(
 
Did you say Arma 3 CD Key for £20.99????? Where from?

I bought a steam key from g2a.com for

€24.90 EUR which came to 21.44gbp

Used them a couple of times in the past and the key is always handed over within 1-2minutes.
it looks like they use an automated system.~


BTW bank on this server is almost constantly robbed?
I can go to bed and wake up with 30% of my money gone.
most times if you go to kavala when the bank is being robbed all the cops are just hassling people around the car dealer.
yesterday there was 8-12 cops just sat in kevala why it was robbed :Z

btw you don't have to die to respawn.

just esc > abort mission > disconnect to lobby > rechoose police/civ and you respawn exactly the same as when a server reboot happens. (money +gps + backpack all stay on you)
it doesn't count as a death (I guess to stop people avoiding the wanted list)



BTW if I fraps someone driving around lagging to hell with there car driving all over the screen skipping through buildings etc can you ban them? :P
I lost over 110k vehicle yesterday because someone was lagging and clipping all over kevala and they must have ended up inside my vehicle for a split second because we both blew up.... (I was parked on the kerb at the martket)
I've seen other people lagging so bad that people stood inside the dvm etc just fall to the floor and die because the game doesn't know their car is on the road and not clipping through buildings

Is there a wiki page for altis to know how much everything costs and license stuff?
Not an official one.
I did find this which seems to be a wiki for the same version we have. (not counting the talk of sea wrecks)
http://zombieclan.wikia.com/wiki/Main

pitty we don't have the version with medics and a proper rebel team :|

they all seem to be modded by the hosts though.

tonic sounds like a nob the guy who made the mod as they only gives the updated one to a specific server apparently for free..
I wonder if you can deconstruct the pbo files and just copy/paste some of the stuff lol

I guess he cares more about money than people playing the mod.

It is quite funny to watch at night time, it looks like people are flying ufo's when they turn head lights on. They are all over the place
 
Thanks for being understanding mate :)

Its just pure desert camo, nothing special but I guess with nightvision everyone blends in heh. I cut it out but all the way across that bridge I was talking to Eli saying if this happens while here, we hit the ground.. start firing and I'll move off first and we'll keep leap frogging until we get close enough to do some damage.

I got a much better attack on some other people there with some incoming fire and fire and manoeuvre (arm chair style!) across that bridge in the daylight, that was really fun you can see all the rounds hitting near us but not a single fudge was given.. push on! I cant post it here as there are swearies in :(

I also recorded the other attack and when we got to the door and you had left, we saw a body and was like.. wutt? Someone died here?? Then scrolled the chat up and saw I got the kill aswell, so we were searching for you guys for ages, we found the one we killed in Sofia but couldnt find you lot at all.

Just FYI that gunship, has no ammo in the chain guns for some reason :(

LOL - I dropped down and picked Garfo up and we got out of there at warp speed and around 40m to our secret hiding place :)

We knew you were looking for us as Taz said he saw you arrive in Sofia and start searching vehicles lol so we went to do something else whilst the heat settled.

Incidentally - I'm sure you know but we held up "AFlyingDutchman" at the airport. He wasn't very happy about it and admittedly Garfo's pistol did go off by accident (after we had already told the guy he was being mugged). The rules are a bit of a grey area here as it says no murders within "City Trader areas". Is the airport counted as a City Trader?

We felt sorry for him and let his mate pick up his money and left them to it after that.

Was all done under roleplay anyway - initially we met them in the terminal building and they assumed we were cops but I went along with that (it was dark lol). Then we followed them out and I told them to stop etc :)

Those rules are the rules for the server the mod is made for and not specifically set by toejam.

so whether he in enforcing some of the more strict ones I guess he will have to say.

one of them says not to kill heli pilots without giving them the time to lock their heli or you get banned as the server the mod is made for doesn't want them getting stolen.

it's also why you can't lockpick helis.

guns not saving for civilians is on purpose for a money sink.

I guess it would be easy to change that so they save like the police do just from looking at the differences between the files for police and civ.
sucks that you lose your uniform and everything, I bet the harvested goods don't save on purpose as well to stop people exiting to the lobby and re spawning closer to wherever.



some guy is trying to make chernaurus life for A3 by modifying altis life code but it sounds like he only just started

It really needs a save option due to when loaded up with Apples, Drugs or Diamonds and a server restart is needed it is a waste, when will we have base building TJ?

DIBS on the Bio Facility!
 
Also I need a Clan/Team/Rebel force to join as single player is hard to earn big cash when people either run you down or try and steal your stuff!

me too :P
I've started not really playing much thanks to being on my own all the time.

not really safe to fly around landing at harvesting/processing places for drugs in a heli solo either.

got to the point where I just did dpd missions instead as they are mostly in the middle of nowhere with no one around and it's an easy 10-50k.


I've got no mic though so kinda limits my options.

it's pretty dumb really everyone is doing the drugs to make money but most people will shoot others doing it which in turn encourages more people to do the same.
everyone could just ignore each other unless they are actually trying to rob people but noooo far to much common sense needed for a bunch of teenagers.

it's probably safe to do copper in a heli though I don't think to many people bother with it since the profit is about half of what the drugs are
