Arma 2 multiplayer arranging thread

I'll try and join tonight if I can. Have been on a few times but so far haven't been able to stick around for more than 30 minutes or so.

I've just got the TS server added into my TS settings so I'll have comms tonight as well. In game name/TS name is Unknown Soldier btw. It'll be interesting to see how you guys handle the tactical situations presented by ArmA.

My mic is broken atm :( i do have a ps3 bluetooth but dont have a bluetooth dongle for it :(

I do however have a built in mic on my laptop but the chances of my laptop running this game at a decent settings is very very slim.

Just run Teamspeak on your laptop and the game on your desktop, sorted.
 
I have just set up TS too.
I have no mic yet also, though listening to L33's advise, reckoned it would be good to listen in.:)

Enjoyed the game on saturday night, for the most part some quite good team play and more than fairly admined a good server to visit. There was one visual cool moment to look at when someone decided to fly over and got shot down by a shilka, it looked fantastic seeing this spray of gun fire and the aicraft going up in a ball of flame, would have made a nice vid clip to show of the visiaul effect of the game. Some of the critics just don't know what they are missing.

Haha this might of been me in and F35... I love flying that and swooping over the troops :)

Very good game on saturday. The sunday game left a lot to be desired though... with one map where you were unable to rearm your aircraft! Leading to like -20 on aircraft score due to me making them respawn.

Anyone playing tonight?
 
I'll also hopefully be on tonight, and listening in on TS hopefully. Haven't had much practice with MP, but hopefully I can learn as I go along.
 
I hate servers where players just lark about etc so this one sounds great. I'm a noob at the game however so happy enough to follow orders as a grunt. Will get a bluetooth dongle soon so I can use my PS3 headset and join in if a noob grunt is welcome?
 
Am currently downloading the steam version :) Finally get to play it now! I'm in the Steam Arma2 group (Gunishment) and will be hitting this game hard over the next few weeks/months. Am a hardcore ofp fan and will be making co-op missions / playing co-op missions above anything else.
 
Just purchased this off Steam and currently downloading it. Joined the TS channel, Steam and Xfire Groups and looking forward to play.

Ok, I have been playing in mission editor for 40 minutes trying to get a Jet to rearm. I have come up with the following.

You need a FARP present (I think Ammo truck or Vehicle Service Point is the crucial part).

Now... Why haven't you been able to rearm your missles? I have found that UNLESS you have atleast 1 of the ordanance type still onboard, it will not be rearmed by the FARP point. I assume this is some sort of bug which really sucks... I think the only way to rearm your plane properly is via a scripted point on the map.

I have tested this with 0 Ammo across all boards which leads to NO rearm, I then tried it with 1 missle / 1 bomb and they restock almost instantly when you are in range of the station.

Hope that clears up anyones uncertainty on it!

Yeah that bugs been ther since arma... dunno if they ever fixed that
 
Great games last night. the teamwork is getting there. i loved the longest day mission as it starts at night hehe. we attacked the first radio tower and did it succesfuly during the night and then headed off near the factory but got lost along wit h Jablo i think his name was and we was stranded doing nothing for a good 30mins. i couldnt work out where i was at the time but in the end gave out the coordinates and managed to get a ride back to the factory which we already completed the mission for :(

God knows who dropped us in that location to begin with :( still a lack of communication there as i had no clue where i was!

the game then crashed when we appeared to be returning back to base from the factory leaving jablow stranded where i was and the game crashed!! i couldnt get back in as shawown locked the server!!

when he did open it again it was now full!!! i had to wait nearly 30mins for me to rejoin again!!

When i did rejoin there was some random faggit Team killing at the carrier! it was fun in a way as shadow guy was creatinga plan to kill him as soon as he respawned hehe. did you manage to ban him?

How many from that game was OCUK? here is a suggestion. why not password protect the server or only allow maybe up to 5 randoms in the server as its annoying for proper real OCUK members to join in when the server is full :(

overall i enjoyed last nigh, it was brilliant
 
Enjoyed last night but it was very hard to keep organised as was not as good as other nights, since this game was released on steam yesterday and in the US the day before the amount of counterstrike kids joining and trying to ruin the game has shot up tenfold. I think people are buying this expecting CS/COD, joining a MP game (ours :() and realising they can't bunny hop around with an awp so they just TK everyone, smash choppers up and generally annoy people. We banned more idiots in a single mission last night than we have done in the past 10 days.
I'm also going to vote in favour of passwording the server for OCUK and friends only until all the kids get bored and go back to whatever rock they crawled out from. That way we can actually play properly and do some decent teamwork without having to stop every 10 seconds to remove some idiot, and we can spend some time helping others that are new/lost etc.
Anyone for/against passwording the server?
Apologies to all for the moron that ruined your game for 15 mins while I was afk, didn't realise that only 1 admin could be logged in at a time. I found his ID this morning and added it to the banlist.
Also got annoyed and banned those 3 guys who were obviously friends that kept spawning, taking choppers to some random non-mission location, dumping them and then respawning - meaning guys that were actually playing properly had to wait 20 minutes between airlifts from the carrier. We dont mean to be fascist but if people want to just mess around they can set up their own server!
Rant over :P
