I really want to get into coop once I get more familiar with the controls/game style. I did play Arma 2 a bit online but mostly just in free-roam/sandbox DayZ mod. It was fun but I'd like to get more into scenario based coop gameplay. I see a lot of videos of guys doing different raids/missions but I have no clue where to download them(or, are those simply just locations in the free roam mode that they decide to organize raids on but aren't actual programmed 'missions?') Grab PWS and start D'loading the mods so you can join my server. I make scripted (more or less) missions that are co-op oriented. What times do you have to play? Let's set up some gaming sessions. See my first post in this thread. |

Come June though my vacations kick in and in June I'm only working 12 days, then 15 days in July so I'll be more open. |

ATV, you have any littlebirds in the scripted missions? Been wanting to fly some in an actual mission instead of just screwing around in editor.

Starting to get the hang of it. I remember this game being unique to most anything else I've played. I'm learning fast that no cover = death. It's an ok but but the SP doesn't really do much for me. The campaign is exactly what I didn't want this game to be(which I didn't get it for the campaign anyway). It's not dynamic at all. When you do get to the point that you're commanding troops, commanding AI troops is a massive pain in the ass.
I can imagine it being quite fun coop though or pvp when things get a bit more dynamic and you don't have to worry about shitty AI. Enemy AI isn't all that great either but still seem challenging enough. |

PWS won't even open for me. I get the big logo in the middle of my screen when I click on it, and it doesn't do anything else.
Been trying to get it to work at home, I'm at work right now. |

Enemy AI isn't all that great either but still seem challenging enough. There's a really good series of escape missions that are co-op and pure dynamic gameplay. Originally from A2, it has since been ported over and improved upon, usable on a bunch of maps. Perhaps we could meet up and try one of those in the near future. I prefer Co-op myself (hence hosting a server) Quoted:

PWS is being a real pain in the dick lately. Try a comp reboot. And so far closing it by using task manager --> end process makes it play nice the next time you open it. Don't close it with that tempting X A3 has updated to 1.44, updating the server as I type so it will be usable again. |

Yeah I'd be down for that. Gonna be pretty busy the next week and a half but then my vacations kick in and I'm off more than I'm on.
I just hate static campaigns. I hate that you're at point A and need to get to point B and you have to do it by following a cookie cutter series of waypoints to get there. It's like playing connect the dots. Instead I prefer being told your objective and having to figure out the best way to go about achieving that objective with random events occurring along the way(ambushes, patrols, enemy aircraft etc.). I also hate that when you fail to connect one dot exactly the way they want you to you fail and have to restart instead of trying to adapt to the change in plan. If I run over a landmine in my vehicle and we get stranded I don't want to just be told I failed and try over again. I want to unass, figure the situation out, and then decide to either press on or try and abort and rtb alive. When shit goes haywire that's when games like this really shine...(unless you're playing the campaign..then you just fail and restart..) |

My Iraqi-Syrian Conflict mod is now 3.0, now with more pew pew pew! Found here (also in the PWS repo) Seriously though, It's going to be in the next mission, which is..... KUNDUZ map! ALIVE has finally indexed it so it's going to be full speed ahead on getting that mission ready. I already have a populated FOB ready to go. |

The ALIVE system is pretty good at making weird random shit happen. I try to make missions that leave the player open to complete them however they see fit. |

well hopefully it will update properly through PWS. Is it the type of thing it should do it automatically or do I need to be looking for these add ons? Every other time we have been able to just let the PWS update and install the add ons this time there was no such luck.

Is there a way to set up PWS to download your collection? You have like 870 mods.....it makes it unenjoyable to try to download each one manually. I see your collection on the PWS website, but I'm not going to download all of them one by one. Honestly, you could do without a few mods.
NVM. Figured it out through PWS |

Had fun with a few fellas. The ace mod is neat and adds a layer of realism dealing with injuries.

Found the collection on the page. Subscribed. Can't find it in the client, apparently the client doesn't synch collections properly. And there seems to be no way to add a friend so they can send it to me via the client.
Edit: Been at this for over an hour with no luck. Going back to Epoch. Edit 2: ATV, that's not your fault. PWS has had this bug for over a year, they suck. |

This is way too complicated by the way but I am too far in to back out. Shit always gets complicated with a server that has 80+ mods attached to it. OP needs to clean up the server, get rid of unused mods, useless mods (ie tactical beard). It will help the FPS a bit. Not bashing the OP. I know ATV has put a lot of hours into it, but there is a time when too much is too much. Also, enabling 3rd person would be beneficial with a players FPS too. Sometimes first person lowers my FPS a lot...And I have a pretty decent machine. |
