on the other hand it could screw things up :D

removing it altogether and making it a lot easier to identify certain players across all servers would be the way to go, I think. although, the fact that they can change their name at any time makes it a bit difficult :huh:

ArmA2's ACOG is a sight with 4x magnification, IIRC. what you've found/seen is a red-dot reflector sight

maybe that was an SVD?

I had most of the gear you have (GPS, NVG, supressed SMGs, M4A3 CCO/AKS Kobra, M14), and I can't say I really bothered Alt+F4-ing when I died due to a bug. I couldn't care less. this is, after all, only Alpha. so when people start going on about how "bugs" justify exploiting other bugs, one has to wonder about their adequacy

you need to shoot the doors. two-three bullets into the doors (they're marked with arrows) and the whole floor's windows go *crash*

frankly, the PMC campaign and vehicles are so underwhelming, that it just isn't worth buying it just for textures at its Sprocket price.

off-topic: I hear JSRS is crap and VobSound is much better. never trying any of them, because ACEX_SM suits my needs anyway

the bird thing happens quite often on the Arma Free servers, so I wouldn't be so sure it's FADE related

yeah, but he usually logs in on another server, so what good is it to me that he bled out somewhere safe and can actually have his buddies recover his body?

those aren't NPCs, those are other players logging in. they all spawn there first, then are teleported to their last position on the map.

man, Six Updater and Launcher do that for me. seriously, if you ever intend to play ArmA2 with other mods, make sure to install those first, they'll make your life so much easier

he's also one of the top PKers ;) that explains a lot. as for zombie kills, my friend got 350 in two days, not doing anything special, just walking around small towns.

bikes in ArmA 2 suck so much, you'll be hating them pretty soon

by hitting a survivor, AFAIK

wow, server owners/admins should've disabled voting right from the start. that'll teach them :D

bandits have superior camo? what? how is desert camouflage superior in Chernarus?

how to you reload the mounted guns when they run out of ammo?

holy fuck... and I always wondered, how it could possibly be that a lot of people buy games on Steam even though apart from sales there's nothing good there. now I know. here's something that will end all of your troubles: http://www.six-updater.net/p/download.html non-Steam ArmA is SO easy to setup and configure, you wouldn't believe. oh, and use this too: http://arma2.paro-technology.com/?page_id=7

I would much rather not see ANY military grade equipment spawn in empty buildings, random towers in the forest etc. too easy to get. playing around, not doing anything serious I managed to hoard a whole arsenal of shit (3 SMGs (2 silenced), 4 carbines and 3 rifles) with at least 2 magazines for each. this game can be a walk in the park for some. I'd love for the cool stuff to be really hard to get (not based on random chance of finding, but on the difficulty of a task you have to undertake in order to procure a good weapon)

but my death ratio is 50% to bandits and 50% regular survivors. and I'm not talking about shooting at them first and getting killed. people just use the fact that their skin isn't a bandit one and kill me. since humanity apparently regenerates, they don't worry about turning into a bandit oh, and one murder is -4000 humanity, so that does mean 1 murder = you're a bandit

AFAIK, the tents again were deleted for 1.5.4

gear sometimes disappears (either drops into models of buildings/under ground textures), so you should always: a) drop your stuff on a flat surface, b) make sure not to replace one gun with another right in your Gear menu. drop your weapon first, pick up the new one
