  1. Well, they are really op, I just remember them from Altis Life, mayhem. I still think its nice that they are in the game. Perhaps they could be nerfed through making the maintainance more "expensive". What about you need 20 repairgunshots for fixing one tire? Or something like that... Mraps also need a shitload of fuel in reality, perhaps make it use more fuel?

  2. I was thinking I have so many swings, I might be able to use a hatchet.

     

    Well, I tried with a sledgehammer recently, no succes on a jammer or walls. I hit a 1000times on  metalwall, no effect.

    we tried to destroy a jammer with first placing a mine and then another 1000 sledgehammerhits. No success

  3. 1. The server you were playing on.

    Skaronator

    2. What arma3 build and what Epoch build you are using.

    Arma 3 1.32 / Epoch 0.1.0.3

    3. What it was you were doing

    Looting crates at shipwrecks

    4. Is it repeatable.

    Yes ( Only tried it at Skaronator, but occured before and after a restart)

     

    Since the last (Arma)update something changed with looting the crates at shipwrecks. As you dont get the inventorymenu under water you could loot the crates with the scrollwheelmenu. But since the last updateof Arma, it seems you can only take one of the 2 items. After you took one of them, the option for the second item disappears. Doesnt happen on the crates above the water, as you can loot with the inventorymenu. It seems the "hand"- symbol appears very shortly but disappears afterwards.

     

     

  4. Cooked meat like chicken, fish, goat, lamb, etc. could give you back some health like in Arma 2. This could be used to bring you back to 0 if you like to play solo.

     

    I also think the fall damage is too high at the moment you fall from 5 meters and die randomly in stairs or on rocks.

     

    Well, falling from 5 metres height on a rock will obviously kill you! Did u ever jump from 5 metres height IRL??

     

     

    I agree with the health. A very slow regeneration or some diferent way to regain the remaining .25 hp would be nice.

  5. Ofc there is still some lack of content, but games like this where always about one thing: Create your own missions!

    Did you explore the whole island? Have u setup a tepee somewhere? Whats going on on the island?

    What are the marked shipwrecks? What happens at the epicenter? Where the fuck do I find a hatchet or a chainsaw?

     

    Dunno, didnt get bored yet in the game.

  6. Allthough it is hard to argue with dslyecxi there are some points he is ignoring.

     

    First of all, the way you move in real life is a lot different from the way you move in a game.  In real life if you stand next to a tall fence you can pull yourself up to look over the edge for instance.  You can also peek through gaps in the wall without exposing your body.  You can contort your body in to all kinds of weird poses to get situational awerness of an area without exposing yourself, you can't do that in the game.  That is why there is 3rd person in Arma.  Indeed it can be argued that 3rd person is key to having a realistic tactical awereness in ArmA.

     

    Secondly some things are just not correctly configured for 1st person.  Take a speed boat as an expample.  As the boat accelerates the nose lifts, to counter this in real life the boat driver will either be standing or in a elevated position so that he can look over and down the nose while driving.  Not so in arma, it is in fact impossible to see where you are going driving a speed boat in 1st person in this game.

     

    There is a reason ArmA has 3rd person.  They would not have included it in the game if it was not essential.

     

    Either case it is perfectly acceptable for a person to prefer 1st person server, just like it is acceptable for a person to prefer 3rd person enabled.  It doesn't mean they are peekers or cheats or hardcore.  It is just preference.  Personally I enjoy both, I find 1st person more suspensfull but ultimately i find 3rd person enabled to be more tactical and have better firefights since both parties have good battlefield intel.  Fights seem to last longer on 3rd person enabled servers and you must think more and use cover and tactical movement more effectively.

     

    Anyway soz for the derailment just thought i'd share my 2c on this.

     

    Totally agree on this one. Yes, the 3rd person perspective has nothing to do with realism. And it can create a few situations where it seems to be unbalanced in a fight. And perhaps the 1st person is also more "immersive" as some stated out. But especially Epoch is not only focused on PVP fights, but on Basebuilding, Exploring, running or going by boat (for hours :) ), repairing stuff, trading.. and thats just more convenient when I can choose my perspective.

    Well, in the end, a minority will always love the 1st person thing, but the majority will probably stick to 3rd. As there are servers for both types of players now, no need to argue anymore, everybody gets what he wants. Just dont like people who think they are superiour just because they prefer 1st person (or vice vercer), sorry thats kind of childish :) .

  7. Thanks did not know this, but i do know that when I played on a whitelist server, I had my money when I spawned, I used them to buy gear from the vendors at the spawn Island. Can other players pick up the krypto aswell? It's a good way to rob someone, I just think that this will add to the pvp, who wants to use all that time looting and saving up when all you need is to kill someone...

    Thats why I hardly have any money on me. As long as you cant store your money in a tent or a lockbox or something like this, kryptos have only one purpose: Buying something you want at traders. Best thing is gettin a tepee as fast as possible and store all the stuff u find there, and just sell  if u found something special u wanna buy from a trader. Running around with 1000s of Kryptos in your pocket is not the greatest idea.

  8. I've found that if I stand next to a sapper then my soiled level is very quickly reduced to 0.

    troll :lol:

     

    I have the feeling that right now chances of getting an antagonist spawned bases mainly on how much people are in the area. But if u say so..  Would like to see the soiled value affecting stuff like quality of loot, prices at the trader, perhaps even health. Right now it is not really required to clean yourself.

  9. Ive been playing since whitelisting, and at the beginning, my character was not getting older than a few hours. After gaining a little experience I managed to survive a little bit longer. I realized that there is an invisible "wall" at 10 hours, the time when you start to think: "Well, lets just YOLO it!" Thats the time I usually die. My current character managed to reach the ancient age of 17 hours and still being alive (really feels like an old man)!

     

    So how old did your oldest character become? How old is you current one? You also got a time when u usually die?

  10. 1. The server you were playing on.

    Skaronator.com

    2. What arma3 build and what Epoch build you are using.

    Arma3 1.30, newest Epochversion

    3. What it was you were doing

    While Trading.

    4. Is it repeatable.

    For some people, yes.

     

    I am basicly writing this bugreport for a friend, as it is working fine for me.

    But he has constant troubles with this issue:

     

    Everything works fine as long as he doesnt interact with the traders or trade with players.

    While the interaction, he gets a massive desyncrate, it seems that arma is sending more packets than usually, his Router seems to decide that this is a malicous connection and he looses connection.

    Its probably just a problem on his side (Fritzbox Router) but perhaps other people also ran into this problem.  He goes around this issue with tethering his connection with his smartphone, doesnt occur there.

    It didnt get better with the the Arma 130 patch (which was aimed at connection performance from what ive heard.)

     

    Probably a bug that affects only certain routers, but he could play Altis Life just fine. (perhaps just his router being fucked up ;) ) Just wanted to let you know about that,

  11. I have seen goats and snakes on the vert01 server just last night hope this helps.

     

    mhm strange, playing on Skaronator (yes, an official one ;) ) , and Im pretty sure I havent seen any goat since the last patch, and never spotted any snake (but perhaps they are too small and im too blind B) )
