Thread: 2 cents

WOW, great gaming tonite. lots of Players, However, I was WAY bored.
I aPPreciate the fact that u guys are giving us all vehicles and aircraft to tryout, but sometimes LESS is MORE! Enemy aircrafts that are really friendlies...
Seems EVERYONE wants to be a Pilot hero and their get OWN Personal KDR on.
No reason at all to have ANY ground vehicles.
We had a Pilot Pubber come in here and own, with 78 or so kills and ZERO deaths.
Nothing wrong with that, just makes the game kinda boring when a few or more than a few, are just Pilot whores ONLY!.
More fun IMO if u just have a couPle choPPErs and Jets and there is always ONE guy who just loves to transPort shit.
Its really an easy formula, Air, heavy vehicles, Transort MHQ, Take tower, take secondary obj., f there is one and get flags.
Tonite, it was bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb some more. maybe get out of your comfortable Pilot seat and get a flag.
Enemy AI aint got a chance, in this scenario.
Not to mention that the amount of teamkills was way the HELL above normal tonite, cuz of Pilots.
I like the idea of strategy, teamwork and stealth, TONITE was just Strictly DEATH FROM ABOVE CARPET BOMBING....YAWN>>>>>>>>>>

I think we need to limit teleport as well to once per 30mins, lock everything except what we need... I love the look of all the stuff on the ground.

This coming from someone who doesn't play arma2, me. I play games for the feeling of losing or winning a hard battle. If there isn't a challenege a all shaw the point of playing.

Just put enough aircraft so there's at least a challenge. It's not about kills, it's about winning and talking to your entire squad and workin together. I like to feel I've accomplished something after playing. You don't get that on a rape fest, you get it when both teams are balanced and there is a long hard battle and if you win or lose you still feel like you had fun.

I love all aspects of the game. Love the slaughter and points, but also love team work. As a sugestion I say during certain times of the day leave everything unlocked. but after a certain time like our member peak hours the do some locking of vehicles to force the team work. that way its a win win situation for every type of player.

Thanks Guys, I think You get what I am saying...

i say: wait till ARMA PR comes out, the teamwork will be there

Yea sadly I must agree with echutter this time, I say wait til Arma PR comes out. I'm sure it will be worth the wait. Also I must agree with priest, killing is fun but teamwork is where all the fun is at.

There has been a couple of nights already where the server has over 10 players in it and they weren't all GiB members. LT1 if you wish to change anything, it needs to be communicated to everyone and agreed upon. So put up a poll and state specifically what you want to do, then if everyone agrees we shall pass it and make it law.

Im sure the guys who created Arma II has already thought this through, wonder what the natural game play really is?

You can script in some dirty admin tools that can lock and unlock all the vehicles.

Not sure how the arma engine handles interfaces with logins, but I believe it is doable. Most of my knowledge is simply in editing variables and adding kits or units. I haven't done and UI scripting for the game yet.
