    Sneaking and sound.

    tap the movement keys at low intervals while crouch walking can make you walk silently, don't tap to fast otherwise you might sprint unless you like me and removed that from your controls, i use mouse4 button to toggle sprint.

    New Arma2:OA Beta Patch 93030 :-)

    if you not bothered about steam overlay just install beta patch normally, then goto your Arma2:OA folder in steam there will be a exe file called: Launch Arma2 OA beta patch. right click it and goto properties, in the section that says target line add: "drivename:\Steam\steamapps\common\arma 2 operation arrowhead\Expansion\beta\arma2oa.exe" -beta=Expansion\beta;Expansion\beta\Expansion;@DayZ -nosplash click apply and bobs your uncle. you will have to use that exe each time you start the game up and it will have no steam overlay.

    Build 1.5.8 rolling update

    Sapphire ATI 5770 1GB. Mainly around towns/zombies, Servers all of them i have tried so far (EU/UK). Sometimes immediately sometimes up to 20min. Constantly happens. Usually to fix it i have to restart the game.

    My top 10 list of new gameplay ideas.

    No more AI other than Zeds thank you, let the players create the safe zones. Also parachuting down when you spawn while sounds novel, we're meant to be survivors not the SAS.

    For those who complain about/dislike temperature

    I can confirm sprinting does increase temp and staying indoors does increase your temp (don't tell me it doesn't because I've seen it with my own eyes.) but it's at a very low increase, I've also set a fire up in a general store and it worked fine.
  7. This is a sound effect that plays when you are around buildings, actually not part of the music but effects, it's the same as the bird noises/church bells etc and doesn't mean anything, it just goes off when in proximity to certain areas/buildings, for instance when you are in the woods you will hear horses but i don't think there are any horse models in the game.
  8. The only ambient sound effect which I think is out of place are the horse noises.
  9. Lunar cycle on arma2 engine, look it up those who don't like the dark nights currently.

    How to Rule [The Troll Guide to Play]

    30 seconds is to much, 5 seconds is long enough for someone who has to leave for legitmate reasons, i.e find somewhere safe to logout and is also long enough that if someone disconnects in a firefight on purpose they will still die. And if your connection dies in combat for whatever reason then you'll just have to accept that as it's the exception and not the rule in todays 'always on connections', and if it happens alot for you then i suggest talking to your isp about it or find a new provider.

    Crazy Zombie Spawns

    I don't really have any problems now, it's alot easier to deal with zeds now, i don't get why people have so many problems still are we playing the same game?
  13. Because a lot of gamers are now jaded at the mass-marketed-dumbed-downed-casual-snore-fests that are becoming the norm in games, and are looking for some new challenges.

    Performance Drop; 1.5.8.2 Hotfix

    At 1st i had 10fps (40-50 before) then i restarted the Arma2:CO and it was better, now currently i'm running at 35 in towns and 60 in wildness. But i do have some of the graphics turned up above default, i guess thats why i get a bit of a drop in towns, but for me it's still playable without making the game look like a turd.

    Timing of Patch 1.5.8

    The whole forum is full of salty tears, Rocket must be drinking pints of it by now. :)

    How to tell if nametags are enabled?

    keeping in constant contact over voice comms works as well, like everybody tells everybody what they are doing and where they are moving to, works like a charm for my group.

    Logging in next to other users

    Never logout around buildings but in the woods is my advise.
