Arma 2 multiplayer arranging thread

The Longest day is hard with 4 people,.. but we done most of it :)

good team.

TNT, CJ, COMA, MORTE to name but a few.

Thanks for keeping me up to 3am and prob sleep in for work in 4 hours, eek
 
How long do these games actually go on for? lol, is this something I start at 6pm and then stop when its time to go to work the next day? -.-
 
i didnt play much last night as i just wasnt in the mood at all , got shot at so i was injured off teh start asa joke which really annoyed me then gets in a tank, asks if any one wants to drive /gun and do a side mission which wasnt too far and no one wanted to, did side mission alone in tank and just logged off. we need to mix up the game types and test. can only do dom so much before i feel im repearting the same thing over again

also Chk4. can depend on settings but it can take 4 hours with a good team on certain campaigns/maps however it can take a hell of a lot longer too
 
Just a warning. one of our steam clan members are hijacking peoples steam account. the ******* did it to mine last weekend but thankfuly got it sorted now. i cant remember the pricks username but do not click on a link saying its a beta for left for dead 2!
 
that dude sent me the msg too but i ignored it any how as i wont be wanting to play left 4 dead 2 looks naff tonite ill tell ya who it was cos he hada strange image on his account
 
I severely need a better PC.. waiting a second as it lags over Chernogorsk in my plane does not help when you're trying to a) hit an enemy target or Jimbu and b) not hit L33.. or sniping and waiting a second each time you scope in for the models to load properly.. :mad:
 
It all seems a bit easy to me (not that I'm any good). I expected long battles that last for a couple of hours over villages/key points and more AI reinforcements coming in or trying to flank you, or maybe a tank group hitting us from the rear.

But at the moment it seems that we charge in, edge our way forwards then after 10-20 minutes of fighting we are then trying to find the last AI, which can take up to 20 minutes, then we charge of to the next village.

Is it the difficulty level that we play at?

Also, what mods are people looking forward to, I've had a bit of a read around but as I didn't play arma I'm not sure who the big boys are?

Yeah I agree. It does seem more like when the town will be taken rather than if.
 
Just purchased this tonight on steam, will be very interested in getting together for some multiplayer! Is it hard to get into? Shall have to dig my headset out from somewhere...
 
You have to remember that it depends on the campaign settings but im sure as ppl get used to creating and scripting that it will be more complex and ull get your wishes :)

on OCUK server we have a lot of players who play the game a lot so taking a town is now more faster than when we started also with key players who can drive/pilot/snipe/javlin/laser target and so on makes a hugh diff

Yes I did wonder whether it was the vet players who were going through the enemy like a hot knife through butter.
 
As long as the idiots are kept in check its good fun. Its annoying when someone takes the assets only to blow up with out taking off, or tk'ing a team in a chopper or osprey.

A guy came on last night, blew up a full osprey then disconnected, grrr.

People dont seem to get its not bf2 or cod4. U cant just grab a vehicle and tally-ho off into the sunset with it. The choppers are needed for transport to begin with cos its a long long walk to an objective.

And people not using space bar is just plain silly, it tells friend or foe and often spots enemies before you.

And apart from the bugs im really enjoying it (hence the 2-3am sleep times lately)
 
we need to mix up the game types and test. can only do dom so much before i feel im repearting the same thing over again
The problem is that we have tested, but almost all of the MP missions have some sort of major bug that prevent them being completed or similar.
Feel free to recommend any missions you discover though and I can put them on the server :)
