***ArmA 3 Thread***

whats with Eurogamer not reviewing Arma 3 in its "current state" - as its not a "complete game" ??

it has been released - its not a Beta - should be reviewed as is IMO

daft question, are you using the separate increase/decrease thrust in game control assignments? I only ask because I only get that 50% thrust/50% slamming brakes which those assignments. Assigning both throttle axis to the analogue thrust assignment makes throttle response much more natural, and I have the brake assigned to a separate button for when its when needed.

Originally, I was using the analogue controls with my joystick mate.

The problem is well known, in fact it goes all the way back to A2, this so far is the only fix for it, lots of comments on it over at the forums..

They've done some first impressions, guessing they are holding off a review for next months SP mission/missions.

Have a really smooth Wasteland Altis mission now, a lot more fps than previous versions.

20fps is hardly smooth.
Quite a few players were complaining about how chuggy it was.

If you get on when the server is restarted it works fine for about 20 minutes, then crawls to a halt.

Fear not gentlemen, I'm still alive! Some fantastic person decided to crash into one of those magic green internet boxes on my road so I've been without the internets since Tuesday. It *might* be fixed today, not holding my breath!

You can come round and use mine if you like.

Anything over 300 vehicles and it does start dropping server fps, still very much wip, but I think it's got the best FPS on any Altis Wasteland atm.

 

[Suarez7]

Yeah it will just take time, will eventually be fully playable.

Phone line fixed but still no internets

Any decent missions been released yet?

 

[MarkeR]

Don't be silly

Although Day 2 single player is an excellent gunship mission..

 

[dirtybeatfreak]

Do any of you guys have any server recommendations?? I can only see wasteland ones posted in this thread?? Am after Invade and Annex or similar type thing and people who want to play semi properly/serious but not are not anal lol (am I asking for too much??)

 

[Xcept1]

Yeah tried Day 2. Very impressed with that. Looking forward to when he gets an altis version running.

Hopefully with the release we will soon have a fully working warfare/insurgency for us to play soon!

Are there sharks in the editor ?

Sorry for an Arma 2 posting in the Arma 3 thread but I figured this is where most of the scripting guys check.

I'm having a little trouble with the 'fired' eventhandler, I don't suppose anyone here has any input on a workaround? Heres my thread on the BIS forums:

Come to think about it this could be replicatable arma 3 as well XD

Any community-made singleplayer missions worth a download?
