ARMA2 Server

[Armitage]

We now have a public server up and running. (Filter dMw to find it). Just a quick post to see how many copies we have between us and who is interested in CO-OP missions.

[delanvital]

I am interested. I have bought the game, but will not be gaming in that game before after 5th of July.

Ive got it. Not played it much yet though.

[Armitage]

one more thing. any one on tonight to test a 7 player co-op mission?
 
about 8ish. I know it's last minute

[BrotherTobious]

What he said!
 
I'm still faffing about with the controls :sideways:

[delankster]

Try the demo, it is at least on steam. It just didn't work for me at all :sad:

[Snokio]

I cant seem to join, I guess you can't join a game that is already in progress? When i did try, i was in a 'pool' the first time, then a crow?
 
I can see the potential in the game, but for me it's very patchy

So much can be defined in the mission.  The first time we tried to join, it was a 7 man mission with no revive.  4 people had died so there were only 3 slots available and they were all taken by real people.  

I think this game is going to be great for those of us who like tactical gaming but if you like running around at a fast pace shooting things, then best leave it alone.

If you die in this game... you know it and suffer for it!

If you can type 30 words a minute you'll be laughing. The control setup is...daunting. Unless you're a dyed-in-the-wool AWSD man you're buggered. I got the demo and gave it everything I could. I still couldn't get a satisfactory keyboard setup.

I gave up and got rid. :sideways:

[Armitage]

Sorry you didn't like it Ron. I gave up remapping keys years a go and now go with awsd. so i didn't have a problem there.
 
I think this has great potential. As whitey said this is no COD4/BF2. If you don't work as a team you will fail and there is no K:D ratio to worry about. The great thing is we don't have to make up rules to get people to play the dMw way, CO-OP is the dMw way.

Can I just say how impressed I was with the non dMw'ers on the server. They didn't all talk but all played as a team.
 
 
Sorry about the 1st map. because your AI team mates are numpteys, they get killed in the first 2 minutes. which meant unless you were there at the start you could join. I'll remove that map.
 
But the second was a cracker. I got it from here

We didn't finish it. So who's up for Thursday.

[Whitey]

I'm up for a session on Thursday night.  

I like the mission and wasn't happy that I couldn't finish it due to technical problems.  I was impressed by the standard of visitor we got as well.  I guess it's the sort of game that doesn't appeal to your normal "trouble makers", if they muck about, they die very quickly.  You HAVE to work as a team and communicate well or there is no way that you will complete the objective.

We need a good team of dMw'ers to show those bots how it's done!

[Blunt]

I am downloading the demo. and I anticipate having my 1st go some time in August:sideways:
I take it the server will not support demo players.
I don't want another stalker/BF2nights/CoD5/TF2/L4D* Ta Very Much...
...so I'll wait for some reviews from you lot as to whether it's worth gettting**

*I Lag so bad in L4D that it ain't worth the effort (but it's not really my cup o tea anyway with all the AI zombie killing)
**I Was late into CoD4 as css was floating the boat then, but now I would rather play CoD4 than anything else

[T-Bag]

Had a look at the demo. Seemed very glitchy. Like a beta version. Does this seem more polished to other people?
