    Disconnecting to avoid death

    I know. And no, that doesn't mean he can do anything. :S AFAIK he's not working with the source code. Please prove me wrong and take most of what I said about impossibilities back. Heck, I wish he'd work with the source code, the results would be amazing. But until then it's more than save to assume that h's working within the very same limitation as any other mod out there as well. Just with the added bonus of "inside knowledge" due to his day job. You can do a lot, and I mean a frigging lot, with the engine, just look at things like ACRE/ACE or I44. But even that has limits. And basic MP functionality is part of that.

    Murder by Numbers

    I like this thread. It's going to be very interesting indeed to see those numbers develop.

    Disconnecting to avoid death

    Why do all these posts think that logging out once or twice will instantly kill your characters? Rocket never said how much the threshold was and what the time frame was. Those with crashing computers, do you crash every two minutes or something? If so, you should probably do something else with your computer instead of playing. Same for d/c due to routers/connection in general. Read the bloody server description before joining, that'll help everyone in the long run as it lessens the strain on the servers. Not just go in, hop out and log in somewhere else six times in a row. If you die to that, well deserved I say. Someone said that he'd d/c when he sees someone shooting at him right when he logs in. And how will that kill you? You log out once in a situation were hardly anyone would blame you for it. You're not "doing this too many times in a short space", as rocket put it, right? Perspective and common sense, people, use it. And keeping the avatar of someone on the server after he d/c is most probably impossible due to how ArmA works and always has worked. I've played the series basically since 2001 and never have I seen a MP mission where the character you had played stayed on the server after a d/c of any description. Not saying it's impossible, especially keeping rocket's "connections" in mind, but I'd be incredibly surprised to see it happen. Also this is not a game, it's a mod. It's limited by the engine of the original game. A mod changes or adds to the assets of the base game. As such there are certain limitation to what can be done. Again, perspective and common sense. Use it and make this mod a better place for all of us.
  4. There are still places on this planet where it's Thursday, if you want to take it literally. Release dates aren't final, they never are with mods. Never. Even with ones as big as this one. -edit My bad, I am tired. So to answer your question, the Thursday thing got sacked during the rolling updates for 1.5.8. Bandit skins will be in one of the upcoming patches.
  5. It's part of the next patch. Actually read the forum and you'll find it in the notes for the upcoming one :) -edit Or rather one of the upcoming ones.
  6. Regarding chat: - for the chat , and . to change channels The control setup will only use the English button layout for me as well for some asinine reason. Always been that way with ArmA2 for me.

    Which Backpack is the Biggest?

    Actually the Patrol Pack is even bigger than the Czech Vest Pouch.

    That's bullshit and you know it.
