ya, a bit to serious its more a figure of speech to say a game is real? We dont mean real life but that it is a very good simulation to what war might be, AND mainly its for fun...quit being so dam serious fuckin ppl
I don't get the controls for this game. I don't know how to call support , I can't order my troops correctly , and the configuration is shit.
The gameplay is okay I guess , but I can't even control a helicopter , A HELICOPTER!!!! Every time I try to turn it based on the controls , it flips and I crash. 15 bucks well spent indeed ...
I love how people say this is real, when no game will ever be nearly real. There is no emotion in games. (MAYBE a good story though) in real war there is the emotions, the shock of having to kill to defend, at stuff. Games are just a hobby, For Fun
I for one will never say this game is real. Only that it is much more realistic than any other game on the market. Which from a tactical point of view, makes it very fun.
I really don't think that's what he means when talking about "emotions". It's that you'll never be able to replicate the real life conditions of being on a battlefield in a game. The physical stress, the psychological factors etc.
@mrhowto361 although a great imagination is going to make it seem 'real' which is fun and enjoyable but youre right there is not a real display in a game its pure fun and enjoyment
@thatSneakyKid1 yeah, respect people who kill themselves so their leaders can continue to profit from death, and use the money to knock down a building killing 3 thousand of their own people and blame it on a religious group causing almost nazi level discrimination against those people. if anyone deserves respect it's definitely the U.S soldiers that killed over 200 innocent iraqi civilians in one month, using their dead bodies to pose in pictures.
@ledZeppelin7680 I thought the inside thing was just like a theroy or somethin but the way you put it makes more belivable also I'm just saying I dont think you should use something that isnt proved.
@MrFaceGaming commercial airliner with no windows, metal touching glass causing explosion, a completely indestructible box the size of a vox amp mysteriously disappearing, a building specifically designed to withstand an attack from a B-52 collapsing from the bottom up of after minutes of heat stress.... all plausible.
@ledZeppelin7680 Ok so your probaly right, I'm not really intested in all the facts of the whole inside theroy thing, all I was saying was that you shouldnt say something as if was fact when its not its a theroy.
@MrFaceGaming oh, I don't know, it's not like the footage was widely publicized on television extensively throughout the entire year or anything. because, you know, if that were the case, OBVIOUSLY people would be smart enough to call out bullshit when it's so close to their face they're getting pink eye.
@ledZeppelin7680 Ok so I just watched some footage and.... Wow I just dont know what to say, actual I DO the planes are so blury you cant see anything on them also witness's arnt 100% viable. (p.s after your have responded can we stop this we have been arguing for an age)
@MrFaceGaming you must be using a microwave as a computer monitor then, because all of the footage I've seen blatantly indicates that what I'm looking at is not a commercial airliner.
@mrhowto361 at the end of the day a normal human will feel the emotion of war and living with but a true warrior wont and a true warrior will a have the balls to die there because they understand that theyre not there for themselves
The great thing about ARMA 2 nowadays is you could build a system for it for about £300-400 (not inc monitor etc) and play it pretty much maxed out.
Forget about Black Ops and all that noob shit. Also the game itself is now cheap as chips. Game + all expansions probs for about £30.
When ARMA 2 came out though I dropped £900 on a PC that could play it well, that was 3 years ago now, and I havent had to upgrade it at all, thanks to most games being made for feeble consoles. Not ARMA though.
@maccas1329 Go watch footage of firefights in Iraq and Afghanistan. It's not a bunch of people shooting at each other from 15 feet away. Most of the time, you can't even see what you're shooting at, you just know bullets are coming from that direction so you shoot back.
@Ecoman555 Its a continuations of the ORIGINAL Ofp not the pile of poo that codemasters release nowadays. Whats different to the first OFP well, better graphics/AI/More features/More players
I like my missions to have long walks to objectives to add more realism. The real military doesn't have short, drive-thru enemy bases where you can just go boom boom and win without walking a few miles at least.
@EnteruserIDhere1 than you will surely love the mission i'm making, im talking about populating the whole vanilla island, you need to free all towns and villages, if you like walking, there;s plenty here, how about walking from one corner of the map to the other ? sure you can get a vehicle ... but if you like walking ...you can do that, not to mention its a good way to surprise the enemy
Did something similar in one of the missions I made in Cold War crisis. Literally spent 20 minutes walking and after engaging the enemy, I was on the edge of my seat hoping to hell I wouldn't get shot...
@hurleyOC you basically just said this game is bullshit, and since this is the closest you can actually get to real ombat, you just called the US Military bullshit.
@JohnYouth1 They are, you just don't know how to use them. You might be able to help your cause a little by using mods such as ZEUS AI, UPSMON patrol script to name just a few, also make sure you are playing on expert mode (it doesn't change AI difficulty, just the HUD anything other than expert is taking this simulator and CODifying it). Also, increase the AI skill in the menu if you want them 'smarter'. Anyone that hasn't tried the latest version of ACE mod also needs to get with the times.
@7th75thCallaghan The ACE mod is a travesty. I'm sorry, but it is. I really don't understand the love affair with it, it doesn't add much in the way of "realism". The TUSK is almost invincible for example and NATO stuff is way tougher in general than it should be. They also manage to break pretty much every aspect of the game in ways that defy logic. The last time "ACE" was any good was when it was called WGL, and version 4.12, back in OFP. Since the new team took over it's been dire.
@TalesOfWar Well I dont know how you managed to derive travesty from it.. It is the mod of choice for military vets, that means something. Anyway, the TUSK is as tough as it should be, ACE changes armas stupid hit-point system for a more convincing penetration system, the TUSK is no tougher than the T-90 with its active protection system. You need to try it again, you have a really skewed idea of ACE. Let me guess, you work with a competing team?
@7th75thCallaghan The TUSK is INSANELY over powered in ACE. It takes several rounds from 10 T90's to destroy it. It's always been that messed up, even in ArmA 1. Their values seem to be plucked from the air half the time and the other half they seem to be based on what they think they should be. No, I don't work for a competing team, I just dislike ACE because it constantly breaks things and the community ALWAYS dismiss mods, even amazing ones, on the grounds of "No ACE version".
@TalesOfWar And you are deluded if you think that NATO is overpowered in ACE. If anything the Russians are. To me it is pretty realistic, as per real life, the US has no APC that can stand up to the Russian selection, so there are balances in different places.
@JohnYouth1 The AI are actually quite smart for AI (they're REAL AI, not scripted like in most other games). Their intelligence is generally attributed to the power of your CPU too, as they use a full core/thread (where available) dedicated just to the AI. The better your CPU, the better the AI. In MP it drops down to the lowest common denominator, so you tend to get far more retarded behaviour from them lol.
Hey Richie, i just wanted to ask you a question concerning mods in this game. What's the difference between the original ArmA 2 and ACE? what changes did ACE make (can you state the biggest changes?) .... oh and can you run ACE on ArmA 2: OA standalone only? are do you require ArmA 2 as well?
@IndoShanz all your questions can be answered simply by searching google, but to answer it, here goes. Realism, weapons, sounds and gameplay were the changes.You can run it on OA Standalone, though it is recommended you have regular Arma 2.
@mattaddison19 onfortunately yes. it is made of single words that get mixed together as they are needed. idk if it would be affordable for the producers to record every single radio speech as a whole because there are millions (nor joking) of different radio speeches like "enemy officer, 2 o'clock, far away" or "3, move forward to that tree at 6 o'clock" and so on and so forth. it would be several GBs of mp3s if they'd record all of them.
@0nkelD0kt0r Operation Flashpoint: DR has done it well without the need to record all convos. All words put together are all said by the same man in a fitting tone. Next arma will hopefully have that. But yeah, if I ever get this one, I'm muting the radio!
@mattaddison19 when you walk away from people the sound of their voice gets quieter. If they're on your left you hear it more in the left ear etc etc. Eventually they're so far away you hear nothing so you then use the radio.
@mattaddison19 DR doesn't have even 10% of the audio parts that arma has, arma uses many different voice types, and has to be able to fit the words into a far greater variety of more complex transmissions. It could be improved of course, but people do not appreciate how enormous every single aspect of this game is and how much is involved in making it, compared to a shallow rip-off like DR.
@mattaddison19 There are literally thousands of combinations of audio to consider, and there are around 20 or so different voice actors to be portrayed, so that's likely in the millions of potential strings. It's put together on the fly by the computer. It's extremely difficult to get good realistic flowing audio and quite frankly isn't worth the time and money it'd cost to do it. It'd take development time away from a lot of other more important things like optimising the performance of code.
@mattaddison19 DR has feck all in the way of voice variety or radio chatter, not to mention they clearly didn't spend much time on the other aspects of the game. They made a point of saying the voices would sound more "natural" in DR than ArmA so I think they spent all their time there rather than improving the rest of the game, like how it plays, or the ridiculous 64 entity limit. That really kills the immersion factor in a game it was supposed to be.
@0nkelD0kt0r They dont use the mp3 format tho, if you ever been through a games root files and searched through the media folders (like with a modded console for example), you can see there are a variety of compressed formats used for stuff like dialogue and interaction, GTA and many other games get it done
@Swaggacee Look on youtube for this video "Arma 2 - Artillery System Tutorial for MLRS".it explains pace by pace how to do it.if you have questions or you still cant figure it out PM me...
@thespartan65535 its arma 2, a millitary simulator. in campaign u control a team of 4 on a mission, and u can also create missions using an editor. Its pretty realistic, you can fly from jets to helicopters, tanks to apcs, tons of guns, and if u get hit u need a corpsman, unlike regenerating health in cod4 or such games
33 rounds in a bit more then 1 minute. Thats... around 4-5 (maybe 6, if they will be firing slowly) Paladin or Msta-S self-propelled howitzers. When storming the city I'd prefer to use more guns, and lesser fire time. ie 40-60 rounds in 15-20 seconds =)

No, I don't work for a competing team, I just dislike ACE because it constantly breaks things and the community ALWAYS dismiss mods, even amazing ones, on the grounds of "No ACE version".

@TalesOfWar And you are deluded if you think that NATO is overpowered in ACE. If anything the Russians are. To me it is pretty realistic, as per real life, the US has no APC that can stand up to the Russian selection, so there are balances in different places.

@JohnYouth1 The AI are actually quite smart for AI (they're REAL AI, not scripted like in most other games). Their intelligence is generally attributed to the power of your CPU too, as they use a full core/thread (where available) dedicated just to the AI. The better your CPU, the better the AI. In MP it drops down to the lowest common denominator, so you tend to get far more retarded behaviour from them lol.

Hey Richie, i just wanted to ask you a question concerning mods in this game. What's the difference between the original ArmA 2 and ACE? what changes did ACE make (can you state the biggest changes?) .... oh and can you run ACE on ArmA 2: OA standalone only? are do you require ArmA 2 as well?
thanks in advance
IndoShanz 7 months ago
@IndoShanz all your questions can be answered simply by searching google, but to answer it, here goes. Realism, weapons, sounds and gameplay were the changes.You can run it on OA Standalone, though it is recommended you have regular Arma 2.

@mattaddison19 Actually to my knowledge the game takes place in Russia so the radio chatter is in Russian.

@TheGhilliSniper I agree on that. One aspect could definitely be improved upon. Hopefully, Arma 3 will fix that. lol
armyaviationproud 7 months ago
@mattaddison19 onfortunately yes. it is made of single words that get mixed together as they are needed. idk if it would be affordable for the producers to record every single radio speech as a whole because there are millions (nor joking) of different radio speeches like "enemy officer, 2 o'clock, far away" or "3, move forward to that tree at 6 o'clock" and so on and so forth. it would be several GBs of mp3s if they'd record all of them.
0nkelD0kt0r 7 months ago
@0nkelD0kt0r Operation Flashpoint: DR has done it well without the need to record all convos. All words put together are all said by the same man in a fitting tone. Next arma will hopefully have that. But yeah, if I ever get this one, I'm muting the radio!

@cqbhoun What does that do?
mattaddison19 7 months ago
@mattaddison19 when you walk away from people the sound of their voice gets quieter. If they're on your left you hear it more in the left ear etc etc. Eventually they're so far away you hear nothing so you then use the radio.
cqbhoun 7 months ago
@mattaddison19 DR doesn't have even 10% of the audio parts that arma has, arma uses many different voice types, and has to be able to fit the words into a far greater variety of more complex transmissions. It could be improved of course, but people do not appreciate how enormous every single aspect of this game is and how much is involved in making it, compared to a shallow rip-off like DR.
7th75thCallaghan 7 months ago
@mattaddison19 There are literally thousands of combinations of audio to consider, and there are around 20 or so different voice actors to be portrayed, so that's likely in the millions of potential strings. It's put together on the fly by the computer. It's extremely difficult to get good realistic flowing audio and quite frankly isn't worth the time and money it'd cost to do it. It'd take development time away from a lot of other more important things like optimising the performance of code.
TalesOfWar 7 months ago
@mattaddison19 DR has feck all in the way of voice variety or radio chatter, not to mention they clearly didn't spend much time on the other aspects of the game. They made a point of saying the voices would sound more "natural" in DR than ArmA so I think they spent all their time there rather than improving the rest of the game, like how it plays, or the ridiculous 64 entity limit. That really kills the immersion factor in a game it was supposed to be.

@0nkelD0kt0r They dont use the mp3 format tho, if you ever been through a games root files and searched through the media folders (like with a modded console for example), you can see there are a variety of compressed formats used for stuff like dialogue and interaction, GTA and many other games get it done

thespartan65535 9 months ago
@thespartan65535 its arma 2, a millitary simulator. in campaign u control a team of 4 on a mission, and u can also create missions using an editor. Its pretty realistic, you can fly from jets to helicopters, tanks to apcs, tons of guns, and if u get hit u need a corpsman, unlike regenerating health in cod4 or such games

33 rounds in a bit more then 1 minute. Thats... around 4-5 (maybe 6, if they will be firing slowly) Paladin or Msta-S self-propelled howitzers. When storming the city I'd prefer to use more guns, and lesser fire time. ie 40-60 rounds in 15-20 seconds =)
