actually, i requested tactical reload because of that, CQB, in Rainbow 6- Raven shield i had to always reload when i had under 10 bullets.

in a medium range firefight, 10 bullets its a lot, in CQB, its barely nothing, therefore, you are forced to do tactical reload many times, as ArmA 3 enhaced the CQB engagements, i would find useful to have this feature, and yes, mwnicboo makes me think that it would be useful too if someone has a mix of normal/ghost bullets and tracers (of every kind).

RG? wasn't the UK army using the same STANAGs as the US forces?

yeah, i think the "reload the fullest mag on your backpack" is easy to do with a script, but i dont consider myself as someone who has knowledge about the use of mags in firefights, i have seen soldiers dropping them to the ground, reports of SOF operators using them to throw them and distract the enemy, using them to stick them to their helmets so allies can identify them, etc.

U'r very welcome, khan.

If this feature makes it into the final game, empty mags should be a way to tell where the enemy has been or what path the enemy force took

so just because i use the profit meme because the instructions to do this is too short you are gonna dislike the ticket? seriously?

in case that did fix your problem, then you must close this ticket.

Delete the "ArmA3Alpha" CFG in the arma 3 folder in "my documents"

Moving your head on freelook would mostly work when crouched on standing up, for doing a push up on that case, maybe i would suggest to bind "step over" to "peak over your head" or over a corner

then there must be some mistake, when you move your camera up you would be able to see behind something blocking you, of course, it shouldn't be 19 feets above your head, and you must be in first person view, still, i think this suggestion is useless

john cage, why dont you stop thinking you are right and try it by yourself?

when you do it, tell me who is the idiot.

keragon, what do you mean with negative? using freelook works just fine

you can use freelook and move your head up, this is not neccessary

you play as the US army as in OTAN in the 2035 with a different equipment and configuration for squads, etc.

Still, even the Spetsnaz dont use them for combat, just to reach difficult areas

look at the voting, onlly 4 out of 41 poeple wanted crossbow, stop being butthurt and face it, no one wants crossbows.

Samogon, i think crossbows aren't even being made anymore, instead, people is using bows and arrows, and i doubt its available for civilian use, and neither crossbows nor a bow and arrow works underwater, unless we are talking about a special naval custom version.

stalker or not, john, at least you are right

kol9yn, what did you meant in your last comment?

You know? this is no DayZ, not BF3, not Crysis 3, and you wrote "Wolfeinstein" wrong.

Downvoted.

did you though you could move like a ghost? you are a solid body, remember that.

i cant understand what you mean, however, i have to say that the walking sound for the asphalt is wrong

I am so sorry that you dislike the control scheme even though it has a couple of key bindings less than arma 2 and its far more organized, but that is not (i repeat, IT IS NOT) gonna change, why dont you go play something simpler like COD, BF, or some sports game?, i am pretty sure you dont control a soldier with under 30 keys anyway

Confirmed for me.

Let me guess, were you playing wasteland?

Besides, urgent priority is not for showing us your concern about kids playing the wasteland mission using scripts, but for problems in the game that causes crashes.

duplicated of #0009405

i am looking at EVERY H-6 pic out there in google images, none of them shows an MH-6/AH-6 with any marking

related to #6181 ?

agree, no AI try to shot the heli down

tyler, EVEN YOU are against this ticket? wow

Kol9yN, if this is a troll ticket, congratulations, its succefull, it actually works.

Yes, you can dual wield handguns.... or ANY gun for that matter if we are going techy here, however, i want you to see how does dual wielding a gun in a battlefield is any good besides a waste of ammo and telling the enemy where are you.

also, scripts wont work outside of that area, however, i dont find it really annoying

like i said, hacking turrets and drones is more like BO2 or Deus Ex style... but yeah, hacking radios and intercepting radio messages in both MP or SP would be awesome

i 100000000000% agree, EVERYTHING you said there was true, an actual war game with electronic warfare properly implemented has been never seen in any videogame, yes, you are exagerating in the things you could do with that a bit, but mostly the use of radio towers and the use of hacking (for the record: i am talking about hacking to get intel/footage, not a Deus Ex style "hacking a turret and make it shoot the bad guys") are things that i REALLY hope they make it into the game

because lack of odor simulation, to simulate odor it needs to be created and simuladted in real life instead of software, its maybe the hardest sense to ever simulate in a videogames, therefore, its better if we use a simulation of virtual reality using the brain as a controller (AKA, what kojima tried to show in MGS2)

that cave is in north east of stratis, its hard to get in

then the main reason why underground structures (if not dynamic ones) are not possible is JUST because of the already stupid AI?

but AI and movement glitches are the only factors, being the AI the most problematic and important, and yes, sorry for going off topic.

check the outside of the cave, there is one part with terrain in it, either its a well placed rock structure, or an indestructible building that looks like terrain

wait, isn't underground structures already added with the underwater cave in north-east of Stratis?

SGTIce, finally we agree on something, id die to see a new VBS with a new engine, but i think its more about getting used to and making a new engine than monetary problems

SGTIce, i meant the programming, mostly, not the coding, however, now that you mention it, it would be nice to have a new fresh start for the saga with a new engine that holds CQB battles more like Rainbow Six did

they dont need to make a new engine, every games engine is just the same thing, code and programming, wich is universal, so technically an engine have no limits at all, and look at OFP, and now look at ArmA 3 and then remember its the same engine.

I agree with the removal of tunnels because of the AI not working well being one of the most retarded things i have ever heard/seen.

there were TONS of AI mods for ArmA 2 wich made the AI look like actual human players, you cant just take off an very interesting feature that mappers would LOVE just because the AI will have a bad time in tunnels.

ok. i dont know you, but for me this is 2013, in the game is 2035, and WWI was 1914-1918, and it was known as "trench warfare".

using those things are the same as using sandbags, and are being only used in logistical for making bases both temporary and permanent or static positions.

SGTIce, soldiers ain't gonna make a trench or a bunker in the middle of a firefight, shovels are only used when in battlefields with no human civilization close to their position (the iraq desert, iran desert, russian forest, the north pole, etc.)

Shall i vote yes? i mean, yes, this is true, however, i find the editor fill up this feature.

Shall i vote no? i mean, the ones that work making bases in afghanistan for the US forces are not soldiers, they are either logistical workers, contractors from the US, or local workers.

you know, AFAIK that's how it works, and please fix your spelling

thanks for the info fireball.

yes, i meant Xeno, and i know that not using things like the Steam Workshop its maybe a stupid choice, but after reading why did Xeno left the ACE2 dev team i can safely say that all of those who are not willing to accept that Workshop its not just a bad idea then they are just as dumb as Xeno.

The ONLY bad thing coming out from Steam Workshop is that most of the Addon sites with no limitations may be seen with less and less visits with the pass of time.

the point its not using an alternative to steam, pro, the problem here is that there is people that just dont want to have steam workshop to use mods, look at how that ACE2 dev (who's name i forgot) just left because ArmA 3 was integrated with Steam (and also blamed that people should all make fanmade addons instead of videos with Ads to gain profit, what a communist guy.).

they do not take ALL of the rights, as long as you can keep it under the rules of addons and its original Steam won't do shit on your work.

at least BIS is trying to make Addons work in the Workshop

Sadly, assigned = people made big, but =\= that is going to be fixex or implemented, this is likely to be closed in months or to be added in another BIS game

Agree, but that would increase a lot downloading times

this is NOT what i meant with workshop, what i meant is exactly what GMOD or any source game does with it, i dont know if they can do it with ArmA 3, but if they can, its the solution

....i think PWS must be changed for something better.

and yes, even if the server has over 20 addons it can be handled by this program, that's why i suggested the steam support for addons with workshop

Tyler, not a bad idea, but it would require a compatibility mod, with scripts, with addons, etc. etc. just to make it work at its bare prototype, i think still that using Steam and Workshop its easier

what the fuck do you mean i "dont know what i am talking about please leave"?

if you knew what you were talking about you would knew the server doesn't make the downloads from the server addons to the clientside of the guys joining, and i think you weren't too much into GMOD if you think it didn't downloaded entire GB of servers addons, because OH HELL IT DID........ and some source maps can be as heavy and sometimes heavier than ArmA 2/3 maps.

i know they may not be compatible........ but take a look at G-mod, KF and L4D, they do...... EXACTLY that

isn't workshop gonna replace this feature?

MAYBE with the workshop addons implementation this could be easier to do

True, but not perfect, i still think BIS should use VALVe as an example, downloading addons/mods when getting in, being able to cancel them, having them downloaded in a special folder in wich you can use these addons for yourself or dont, etc.

Yes, in ArmA 2 some of these MP missions with mods were just a mess, this would be just alike what VALVe do, and its pretty good, we should be able to download mods and addons from MP matches so we can play them, even if they are heavy

mwnciboo, no, i do what i want.....

All we hear is Radio ka ka
Radio goo goo
Radio ga ga
All we hear is Radio ga ga
Radio blah blah
Radio what's new?
Radio, someone still loves you!

I dont meant using something else than radios, i mean the range, with new tech comes better range and less distortion, therefore, its very unlikely that this is even realistic, in WWII you would need a large radius radio just to call a squad 500 meters from you

2035 people........

2-0-3-FUCKING-5

I HATE TO USE HIGH-CAPS RAGE, BUT SERIOUSLY, THIS IS NOT 2012, MOST OF THE EQUIPMENT ON THE 2035 IS GONNA BE BETTER, STOP COMPLAINING ABOUT THESE THINGS.

da12th, thanks for your info, but are you sure the US does the same? you know how the US military force may be, most of the time they just focus on making the cheapest thing available

da12th, they are not the same, in the F1 cars they use a 5 points titanium expensive harness seat belt system, in civilian cars they use an i think iron 2/3 point seat belts, dunno about military vehicles, but i thinkg the jeeps and HMMVEES dont have seat belts at all, but yeah, i'd love to... i dont know, throw myself off of a car before falling off a cliff?

just for the devs: this request is still open and i wont accept the mass-closing until it get implemented, is better for the mission makers and its not hard to add.

sarlac, i have a different rebinded controls, i rebinded most of them, tell me the command of ctrl X2 on the default layout.

i never said it wasn't realistic, its VERY realistic, and i know people may use it on MP, but what i meant, is that unless a MP match is higly orgnaized using it for high commands is useless, like i said, ArmA never really simulated the chain of command, it DID something close to that back in Op. Arrowhead, but its not hard to add that into the game, besides, in shack tac there is no "high command leader officer" there are just players and soldiers.

but for that, we should first add a realistic commanding function, instead of like the nowdays game, that "higher ranks means being the leader"

we should add the realistic representation of it, like, a platoon leader does NOT control every soldier of their platoon but just squads, the squad leader can either control every soldier individually or just select fireteams, and so on, until ArmA 3 simulate that kind of chain of command, using a camera feed for officers from the helmets is something useless.

we got FRAPS for that, however, not a bad idea

The question would be:

what's the point of it?

i mean, seriously, maybe it would work on MP if a player is a commander and he has to watch for the soldiers in the battlefield, but nothing else

I will have to downvote, in the 30' Ford made a change into the steering of the cars using the hydraulic assistance (or something named like that) that made the steering wheel far more lighter and easier to use, i think there will be another one close to the 2035 that will make steering in cars far more easy than nowdays.

Dont check on ArmA 3 units using nowdays standar, ArmA 3 is set 20 years more in the future, remember that.

Go to steam, right click on ArmA 3 alpha, go to the "beta" window.

does it says "development build"?

battle reaper, you may didn't knew but somehow you are using the Dev. version (wich is unstable compared to the arma 3 alpha)

the ArmA 3 alpha ver. is 0.52 and you are using 0.53, therefore, you may be using even without knowing, the Dev. Alpha

first, using all caps in the title wont get attention, is annoying.

and if the version is "0.53.103.342" then i think your problem is related to using the ArmA 3 Alpha Dev. Version.

Exit the game and start it up again, if you switch audio output when the game is running the audio will stop working, this was confirmed even on arma 2

maybe because its an alpha......

Please clarify, you mean that you cant use a FAK before you get injured? or you cant use a FAK after you get slightly injured? because FAKs are only for big injuries in your own character

is not because of the right trigger in the control, my R2 buttom is bugged too, but lets face it, you just cant use a joystick for a FPS, that would be just retarded, besides, most of the ArmA 2 controls would have to be modified to addapt to the use of a joystick/control.

THE ONLY reason why i shall keep the use of a joystick in this game is for one of the smoother driving and flying controls ever

at least it does have support for PS3 controllers (tryed with mine, it does have preset controls and i can change them)

i still cant comprehend how people think using an anolog is accurate, i highly doubt is my config or my analog sensivity, but i can barely aim at anything while infantry (besides, i need like extra 7 or 8 buttons to make a descent infantry control)

on the helicopters it behave somewhat weird and its not very different from mouse and keyboard, the only thing i can say a joystick is great is for driving, it was FAR more realistic and i enjoyed driving a lot more with a joystick, still, i wouldn't reccomend using a joystick for arma, even if you use a big TV/Monitor, it would be useless for realistic tactical game, so i must vote down this ticket.

Actually, it was hard to explain, as for a video i would have to also show what keys i am pressing, however, this bug stopped showing up after .56, so you guys may close it.

@harold5187 you need to learn what does "feature request" means, i was suggesting it because there were WAY too many people saying that the big compass in ACE 2 was great, other people wanting just a really small compass, and it seemed obvious that being able to change the size of your compass was the most logical thing to ask

same with come clothes

http://www.mediafire.com/?sl5yt0ba9objkvx

that's everything in the appdata local arma 3 folder, Noctuabundus, i didn't uploaded the "squad" and the "MPMissionCache" however

Dev build 55.104356

Problem not solved, F used for Prev weapon and Next weapon, any other key works fine.

i did both, no, this problem cannot be reproduced in any other ArmA, like i said, i know this has something to do with the W being always cyclic forward.

I have since OFP "F" binded to switch weapons, so when i had to switch the firemode or the grenade type i would press F, however, in ArmA 3, pressing F wont work, i had to change it to "U".

at first it didn't worked with changin weapons in the choppers, but now its universal, maybe this is related to "W" being always cyclic forward no matter what in the helicopters?

i am going to put the extra info in "notes"

this also happends with i think every car but the ATV and the civilian off road, i guess its not a bug but something they added, i cant tell why, i cant figure any good thing coming out of it but for stopping players from exploiting this to stay alive for a long time (even though that's what somebody would do in real life)
