Nooooo dont worry. This shit happend to our clan too. Entire camp - with barbed wire and tank traps - evaporated. We had to wait for a 2nd server restart in order to see the camp again. Was weird

Yeah ghillies still spawn. They were removed in 1.7.2 cause they were buggy but they work now. Also, trading in this game is shit stupid. Just raid a clan's camp they are bound to have them somewhere

No you wont. Your gear is not saved on your HDD but on the HIVE server

Yeah but those are saved for an unspecified amount of time from the moment you place then - also applies to tank traps

Pro tip: get lee enfield, make an ambush, take some of them down and profit. They'll run away scared if they notice 2-4 guys are dead. Also noobs will get gear

Try reinstalling Battle Eye? Double click on Arma 2 icon and chose reinstall battle eye

Primary- lee enfield (best pvp rifle, also my MK 48 and SVD got randomly deleted) Sidearm - M1911. 1 hit kills zombies. Dont need flashlights got NVGs

1. Items spawn regardless of being hoarded 2. Usually yes, in case they die or someone new joins the crew and needs gear 3. Not unless someone feels they've nothing better to do 4. All items in tents and vehicles are saved if you save the tent/vehicle prio to restart 5. Zeds only spawn on buildings and not tents/cars

Sorry I must've missed that. I think you either need to reinstall - which sucks balls — or wait for another beta patch. These beta patches break more of ARMA than they fix for me

QUOTED FOR MOTHERFUCKING TRUTH

'Mein Kampf' is 'My Struggle' in English

Ive had a different issue since 94444 - i cannot play operation arrowhead due to the fact that there is shit missing - guns etc. Ive reinstalled and installed beta and same shit. I can play DayZ fine but trying to play Missions is IMPOSSIBLE

Leet haxor indeed. He hacked into interwebs' inner sanctum, past the stuffing mines to reach this

Not from 95xxx there isn't. I ALWAYS wait with beta patches till the server I play on is updated

Well there are advantages to this. When you accidentally overaggro in town just cap the slowest guy and leg it. Piece of piss

Yeah I know mate, but I think he meant that the AKM and AK74 have similar models and I pointed out they were chambered in different caliber

Yeah, the heli crash idea was a little bit extreme, but I was trying to stick to a "realistic" explenation. I am unsure whether there are any combined ops, since Russia is not a NATO member as you must know...

Thanks for that, I'll update it now. Was hoping the Wiki had a full list, I only skimmed through it.

VSS OP? Hehe, no way! It's chambered in 9mm so the amount of damage it would do to a player would be equal to the PP19 or MP5A6SD :) OT, it could be after Harvest Red, but we do not know, that would of course explain the large amount of US stuff on the map, however I am unsure whether those were just stock entities on the map when Rocket decided to use Chernarus - mind you removing all of them would be a PAIN

Yeah, but as you can see some Russian AKs are chambered in 5.45 whilst others in 7.62. There would be little difference in physical apperance but the gun would use different ammo, so it would sound and behave differently. There are however many more weapons not implemented, for example the VSS or the SAIGA... Variety & choice = good

I would like to see the AKs with the GP25 launcher etc, I think there SHOULD be Western weapons in game, but they should only be obtainable from the Crashed Heli sites - which are the US heli crash sites. Forgot to add, I think that the vehicles in the game should be almost exclusively Russian too, the good old Huey should be replaced by MI-26 or something similar :)

The skins are from PMC so unless you have PMC installed they will be low res for you :/ unfortunately PMC and BAF do not come with the Arma2 + OA bundle, but they are not too expencive

Yeah if you flip an ATV don't save it. Note coordinates down and return after server reset. Vehicle respawns after it has been destroyed on a server restart afaik

There is generally far more cooperation on unofficial servers. Also, yes i have found fully repaired quads and tractors with fuel before

First of all, I don't fully understand the "don't get attached to your gear" argument/the default reply of some people. I am aware this is alpha and bugs run rampant, but if look past all that, you will see that the gear attachment is similar to what happens in MMOs - people become attached to their characters. So why do we become attached to our gear? For the most part getting high tier gear and weapons requires quite a substantial effort -.unless you manage to find a camp/kill a geared person. Another thing is how high tier weapons give you a much higher survival chance vs zombies & players - things such as silencers and scoped rifles. Lastly, gear is what motivates people to go North - military loot, crashed heli sites, barracks... If there was no loot there would be no point in exploring unless it's for the sake of exploring - lets leave the vehicles out of this discussion please.
