WTF is that in your avatar? It looks like some sea monster that somehow made it onto land.

Just kill the fags who camp Elektro hill. Easiest loot ever.

I like the cut of the OP's jib. The hill overlooking Elektro is great for taking out sniper noobs. When I die I actually use this location to re-equip my character because it's so often visited by players with military gear who fancy shooting at some fresh spawns. You get bonus points for abusing them over voice comms before killing them.

Right now the site I usually use to download the Arma 2 beta patch (www.arma2.com/beta-patch.php) is down. Does anyone know some URLs for beta patch mirrors?

You can use http://arma2.swec.se/server/list to find server IPs then use the method in the OP to connect.

The amount of friendly players (i.e. those that don't immediately shoot on sight) is drastically decreasing. I've played since April and there's been a definite shift in how players interact. It used to be a case of "don't do any stupid shit then we're good" but now... The gameplay has suffered because of it. I appreciate that no PvP would be fucking boring but full-on PvP is getting pretty tedious. It's starting to feel like team deathmatch with zombies.

This thread is great. Bump!

Actual threads look good but I don't like the forum sections. Thread titles and images are too large. It was nice and concise before. Editing is bugged too. Once "save changes" is clicked, the changes are saved but there's no feedback to the user.

I recently logged in first time since installing the patch and my ghillie suit was gone. I didn't die and my inventory was fine besides that so not sure about that. I believe ghillies were bugging out quite badly so they have been removed for the time being. Not sure what is going to happen to previous owners like myself.

I've had an M4A1 duplicate within my backpack but it ate up all of my STANAG plus some other stuff.

I agree but it should be determined on a case-by-case basic. Major changes to "end-game" content? No wipe. Stuff like "no starting gun" should result in a wipe to better gauge its impact on the game. General changes? I believe that would warrant a wipe too. We are testers after all.

Good read.

17 zombies killed..probably a DC fag too.

Just related to post count.

This is becoming REALLY rampant after being constantly discussed on the forum. Funnily enough I don't experience this when PvPing but when I'm scoping out a town. I will witness a player run into the town with a train behind him, run into a building, disconnect then shortly reconnect. I go out of my way to headshot these people.
