Is it set to expert mode. Or are you restricting 3rd person some other way?
Running a server side script that only enables 3rd person for vehicles.
Don't think that will be very popular Melbo :x
Just whap it on expert. No map spotting. No 3rd person. No scoreboard. No crosshair.
Raw and wonderful.
At the very least veteran.
I've not seen any servers with a removed scoreboard. even in expert its still there you just dont see it unless you leave. You cant view it pressing I.
No 3rd person in vehicles would really sort the men from the boys when it came to flying

I would love to have it on 1st person for everything mate believe me! The tears that it is producing by having it just for ground pounding is lol-worthy.
Shame. Learning to 1st person fly, shoot, drive improves your ability a lot. To the point where even with 3rd person available you end up not using it. If you run in 3rd person there is a greater delay in shooting someone as you zoom into 1st person.
Flying you are at much greater risk of colliding with objects at low altitudes. Thus you start flying high and obvious. AND you dont learn the finer control of the aircraft.
Driving 1st person is much easier if you're moving fast through a forest. 3rd person can be obstructive.
The only negative in 1st person is driving armored vehicles. It absolutely requires a full crew including commander. And the driving can be tedious.
Otherwise. its all round just BETTER!
Chinook is certainly the hardest in a tight spot. But to make up for it. You can land it pretty hard on its tail end. Unlike a blackhawk.
Its also fast as hell and sounds like impending doom
Any admins on the server at the moment ? I was playing was called Ben.T I got kicked off the server now when I try to connect says connecting failed ? or did it restart again at 6pm ? I think theres a hacker on there kicking people etc

Flaming excellent night on server #2. A few of my clan mates came over and we had an absolute BLAST as opfor. We had a good little team going with JT (Fantastic guy, great to play with) and a few randoms now and then. Kicked ass with the chopper hitting those objectives.
Jaxk (I think his name was) and another guy VDB or something did a fantastic job of building a base. Everyone on opfor was working as a team. Any objectives we couldnt hit with the chopper, the other large team was hitting from the ground. Occasionally we would both hit the objective. ground team secures tank. Air crew brings in repair kit and bugs out.
Was awesome! The level of teamwork and team play on the #2 server seems to be a HUGE leap above the norm. That was the wasteland I want to play.
We also had no serious hacker issues. It looked like blufor had some FF incidents which is always a PITA. So i feel for them. But other than that I dont think i saw any hackers or even remotely suspicious guys. Server was running real smooth despite being busy all night too with a lot of action going on.
The server #2 is pretty unique atm being one of the only 1st person servers. I think if you just turn off map targeting (friendly/enemy appearing on map) it would be fantastic. If this keeps up activity and play like it did tonight. Server #2 will become well known as being a very tactical and "hardcore" wasteland. You should label it as such. (the "is this 1st person only?" questions got tiring >.< )
Great work guys on the server! and thanks!

I kicked 5 in a row mate!!
Was getting seriously fed up with it!!
We could add a GPS to the gunstore?
Melbo has been tasked with changing the welcome message to include the 1st party view info, im too busy trying to skin some wasteland skins!
Will change the name next time the server is dead!

It's not meant to be like DayZ where you save your gear. Weapons are so easy to come by and making bases doesn't take long at all. The hacking doesn't happen that often and is quickly sorted. People just start crying all too easily.
Will rename server 2 to something on the 1700 restart hopefully.

In return to your kind mention,
Jack and his clan mates are a testament to teamwork.
This is the way Arma was meant to be played.
Fun,fluid,team players,no moaning and creative. Tactical server !
Hat off once more to everyone !
This game is something very special,sometimes i have no words to describe.
Never ceases to amaze me.Even after a few years. Still in its prime.
