^ agree 100% with everything you said

this is already in the dev branch, I can invite/join friends via steam

"We have paid £19.99 for something that cannot be played"

actually you pre-ordered arma 3, and get free access to the alpha and beta phase :)
also sounds like a client side issue ( your computer ), did you check you meet the system requirements?

I agree, there is also no " restart " option

I saw this problem too

its intentional by BIS
something to do with text updates I remember reading

im no scripting wonder, this just isn't a major game breaking bug, do as I suggested and you will get much more help http://forums.bistudio.com/forumdisplay.php?162-ARMA-3-ALPHA-MISSION-EDITING-amp-SCRIPTING
make this thread in that forum and you will get a lot more help
it takes time to learn the more advanced aspects of the editor

yeah this is far from major/high priority bug, I suggest you guys go on to the ARMA forums and ask these questions there. this is more of a "I don't understand how to use triggers" topic

you add to the condition "local player"

^^ that is the problem, you need condition to "this" or it will ignore the present/not present etc. options

there already is.. group(yes group, not sync) the player to the trigger, then open the trigger and you will have new options

not a bug. BI did state that patches will break some missions/mods because they will change class names etc.

press alt+tab instead

wrong forum buddy, wasteland is a user-made mission, nothing to do with BIS

or maybe IRAN has taken over Israel and is using its technology

anyway, lets see what the voters decide

so you want me to be reminded every time I kill a AI bot in ARMA ,that war is bad and millions of people die.

I would feel terrible after each ARMA session lol

I believe we should keep it the way it is, ARMA lets people play at war without the downsides of real war. and we don't need to be reminded how bad war is each time we play ARMA, we come to ARMA to relax and enjoy ourselves let the News channels show people real war and the downsides

I think OP is a troll, doesn't make any sense
"Call of duty: modern warfare" does OP also have a problem with that title name?

ARMA is a war simulator, hence why it says "this is war" absolutely nothing wrong about it. if you do have a problem then I suggest you don't play war games.. because you obviously feel that strongly against war.

as others say im not trying to be a dick, just saying it how it is

got problem with war games, don't play them

also - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zcps2fJKuAI
a song called "this is war" I think you should send a letter to this band aswell

so you want ARMA a war game to become a Anti war symbol because they used "this is war" in the start up screens
I think OP this is the wrong place to ask for it, you are reading way too much into "this is war"

looked at screenshot, got confused.. how do you have a aircraft carrier? lol

please ban this troll

doesn't even know what steps to reproduce means..

troll much?

btw steps to reproduce is asking you how to recreate the problem not how to fix it

steps to reproduce isnt asking how to fix it.
its asking you how to recreate the problem

incase you didnt realise both blufor and opfor have night vision goggles now.
could proberly do with a more descriptive scenario of how you came to this conclusion

like did you have a silencer? attack from the back? any other enemy close by?

this isnt a bug, next time you want to know something like this go to the BI forums , under editing and scripting
the code your looking for is

this addmagazines ["30Rnd_65x39_caseless_green",10];

voted down, as it was already stated alpha lite wont have multiplayer or modding support. so this isn't a bug so why have you listed this as major and priority high, just wasting developers time
proberly get more luck posting this in BI forums

ps. if the alpha lite had multiplayer, hackers would be running wild
as soon as they got banned they would just send the invite to another account

the lite version is for your friends to see the new features and test if they can run it. when the game is released there will most likely be a demo with multiplayer support

@OCBGavin both blufor and opfor have NV goggles, that might explain how they saw you?

in the full game you will have support vehicles for rearm/fuel/repair like in all previous arma games
it is a Alpha and we only have limited content
for the first few months they want to focus on infantry combat which is why we dont have tanks/support/aircraft and many other vehicles

remove your GPS = no red ring

link to mission that shows the problem ^^
at the start just drive over the mines near the coast and your boat wont be destroyed

i second this too,
bringing me flashbacks to black hawk down, with the delta snipers in the blackhawks

i would also like to see a AI that moves into buildings on its own free will
without someone ordering/placing it there

anyone know if this has been fixed in newest dev version?

added picture from another report that made no sense in explaining the problem

from report 0005563

its a alpha..

you guys this isnt a chat room. its a issue tracker
you will have more luck going onto the BI forums than posting it here

are you using the divers gun?

it works if you get into the vehicle then exit and then try to take the gear

+1 vote

thanks for the reply, and no I cant reproduce it anymore

thanks guys

I don't, its fine on arma 2 CO
just in arma 3 if I press caps lock or num lock the screen flashes black, nothing game breaking :) just a bit annoying when using the mic

thanks for the advice
