[Game] The Armed Assault thread

[Mogget]

17th of Feb I believe.

On another note...the player movement is comical...trying to get your player to run up stairs is the worst experience since playing Trespasser. It's like replaying the Delta Force series but worse. The movement is so un-natural and shatters the sense of realism this game has...

It's actually a step back from OFP.

Seriously... Where the hell are you getting this information from?

Player running up stairs? What? W? I just don't get you. How can you describe it as un-natural? Take a look at the animation from 3rd person view. Do you want him to just zoom up the stairs or something like in most games? No, in this game the player actually walks up the steps. A soldier walking up steps with his weapon pointed in front of him in the ready position (or whatever that position is called) is considered by you to shatter the sense of realism?

Interesting video I found on YouTube, shows the gameplay from an insurgent point of view. Unfortunately, the scenarios are more or less drawn from real events(including that helicopter crash at the end).

I'm pritty sure there is gonna be a good mod for armed assult from ofp called liberation 1941-1945 mostly focusing on the early stage of the eastern front during ww2.

What has 3rd person animation got to do with anything seen in first person view?

Anyway I couldn't give a monkey's bottom if the animation looks good. The entire movement feels off...my akin to the Delta Force series...making it nigh on impossible to traverse in doorways, up ramps or stairs. If I can't even go through a door way without the movement thrusting me sideways at the wrong time then the animation doesn't even matter.

when walking the movement feels fine to me, through doorways and up stairs.

What the....

You mustn't be playing the right version of the ArmA demo (I'm not even sure if that's possible), or you have some serious bugs on your end. Out of all the matches I've played in ArmA not once have I heard anything about the problems you are describing. Trust me, I can go up stairs, through doors etc. without any problems and so can Silky_Slim from the looks of it. It's a very simple procedure.

 

[Capt.Marion]

double-tap shift when walking so you walk WITH YOUR GUN UP. Not looking down your sights, but the stock in your shoulder. you should go slow enought that you can navigate doorways and climbing up the ramps on scaffolds and all. That's what I did, plus I pressed "X" to crouch and go even slower. it helps

 

[[5.SS]Strother]

wow that video ruled, too bad I had to sign up to watch it, how retarded, people reported that it was bad so you had to sign up....ffs its a freaking game.

 

[Reddog]

That video was either made by a jihad fanboy or was taking the piss, I can't decide. I mean **** I don't care to much for this war but killing men like those bastards do chills me to my spine.

Is it me or is "Liberation" a questionable name for an early eastern front mod?

 

[Diamond]

Is everybody getting a constant slow fps no matter what you put the settings to?

I run a 7900gt and 1gb ram.

Lol.

It certainly would be, if the makers weren`t russians and the liberation would not mean liberation under germans.

I get playable FPS with everything at Low, though, when i go into forrests or places with a lot of shrubery, it drops a tad making it harder.


btw my name is kaleus in the demo.

 

[Zoring]

I have surprisngly good fps with everything at high at 1280x960 with a 7900gtx and 2gig of ram.

Playing the game on the other hand seems nearly impossible man, haven't played ofp for a while so it's a hell of a adjustment

That's very out of the ordinary, unless you have a weak CPU.

 

[[5.SS]Strother]

I tried playing the demo, i was on a server and got a kill before all lag broke loose. Couldn't find another server without lag so I quit. I even managed to join a full server lol.

The game does take some time getting use to, I think the key is to slow down your game, your skills and experience in RO arn't going to work for ARMA, you've learned how to fight with speed in RO but now you need to slow down and learn ARMA, let the enemy come to you.

 

[Xendance]

Umm Diamond, 20-30 FPS is fine with ArmA. That's what everybody gets.

 

[Silky_Slim]

Wow, i'm actually getting better FPS after turning most of my settings to normal/high and lowering the rez, which i had at 1280x1024 to 1024x768. Looks Great!

Games that have a more realistic tone are far more enjoyable for me. All i do is play like i'm there, assaulting that god damn town. So From RO to this it ain't that bad. Still the best iv'e got on the Coop is 7 enemys left standing and our 8 man team dead.

 

[Capt.Marion]

i hosted my own server with the coop map and was getting between 17-27 opfor myself each round with like 5 deaths... no xhairs, no 3rd person, all the traditional way, yet I took it ssssllllloooooowww ( just moving around in prone/crouch, only sprinting accross alleys. also, get a SAW!!!!)
