Shouldn't you have put you'r NHD14 fan in the other direction, so it would push the hot air to the fan at the back of you'r case which eject it outside ?

1. go up to MickeyKnox's post and steal that bottle of Jameson, as nothing you can do will give you a locked performance.

2. overclock your cpu to a minmum of 4Ghz, ideally in the 4.3-4.5Ghz range if possible.

3. Do not try tip 1 before/if you want to try tip 2.

If you're going to run a GTX Titan you should probably get a i5 3750k to run with it, it would also improve your ARMA 3 performance without overclocking.

Hello All, I know it's been a few days since I said we have a server. Well now we do.

We have a 30 man server that is PW protected for the time being. As there are just too many hackers out there for everyone to have a good time. I'd love to be able to have it open, but as it stands, there isn't proper RCON support for ARMA 3 yet, and until there is, I can't properly monitor kills to see who is hacking.

That said, I have the server running Jay Cole Insurgency v 1.03. Which is essentially a co-op domination style mission with dynamic missions.

If you do a search for Neogaf you'll see the server. Or alternatively you can join 74.222.5.250 :14302

Remember, if using the filter, to show the PW servers as it'll not show up otherwise.

We have a mumble as well, that people can join if they so choose which is a ton of fun if you like to have voice comms.

I will be taking requests if you'd like to try new missions, the only thing is that they must support at a minimum of 10 people. We can also run a Deathmatch type deal in the future is there is enough interest. I'm open for suggestions and what not for the server, so PM me if you have any.

Also, I'll be choosing Admins for the server here soon. I just need a few people in different time zones that are willing to admin when I can't. That said, do not beg to be an admin. It's not as fun as you'd think it is. Even more so for an alpha game.

That said. Quote this message to see the information for PW and Mumble.

edit: This server is based in L.A. so for those across the pond, sorry if it's not the best connection for you. Sethos was talking about maybe getting an EU server, but now that he's been banned we won't know for a while. Sethos, pm me on Steam http://steamcommunity.com/id/krappadizzle/home if you'd like and maybe we can coordinate something.

edit2:

Quote this message for the information on the server. I guess I wasn't too clear. It's hidden in an E-Mail tag. Sorry for the confusion.

You should see the server info in the original message hidden via E-Mail tag. My bad to all those quoting me. It's still there in the original message.

Also, some have had trouble joining up, be sure your on the Official Release(non-dev) version of Arma 3. That may be what's not letting people join up.

I generally have terrible ping on US West servers but I'll pop on and see how Arma 3 holds up with a high latency.

Thank you Krappadizzle for putting up a server.

Good games last night y'all.

Went for a tinkle and when I got back my internet was out. When THAT got back, nobody was left in the server anymore :(

the only thing about this game is that it isn't kind to new comers .. if there was some kind of comprehensive tutorial i would be more than happy to play this game .. had the same problem with arma 2

The amount of teamkilling in random servers is pretty absurd, haha. Especially in servers without repercussions for teamkilling.

Spent 10 minutes trying to flank an enemy position, suddenly some teammate comes running by in full speed and stops, turns around, shoots me in the head, loots my ammo and runs along. When I said "Same team dude" in the group channel he replied "YOLO".


YOLO...

I'll join the GAF server as soon as it's active.

True, i want to believe that it will have a good tutorial down the line.

But for now, the field manual on the pause menu is pretty convenient to be honest, it's very fast to find the thing you need to know about.

Hey ArmaGAF,

I'm not sure how many of us actually delve into creating scripts and modules for the game, but it's something that I've been interested in getting into since I started playing the series.

I created a script package that adds a basic simulation for underwater operations. Features include accurate measurements of: air tank size, depth, pressure, air consumption rates and Nitrogen blood levels.

I have not added any consequences for improperly managing your nitrogen levels, but I may do so in the future.

Thoughts and feedback (especially from any divers among us) are appreciated of course.

Download Example Mission

Here is the main script for any interested in poking around: http://pastebin.com/W4zvZxWE

Oh here is what the display looks like:

I think the GAF server needs a reset. The insurgency mission currently has no objectives or missions.

Also, what's the deal with the alarm at the base that goes off and then the AI pull out rocket launchers and blow shit up?

I like flying the little helicopter around the island. I find the controls for flight are pretty intuitive. Much more responsive than BF3. Engaging in combat is a whole other thing though. Strafing runs are not so simple to line up right.

This looks really interesting, I will give it a go tonight. I don't dive, but I have friends and family who do, so I've picked up a bit of interest in it. I've been waiting to see things like this for A3.

A little while back there was an Aussie crew talking about their plans for a SCUBA mod:

My team have already began planning for a new modification in ARMA 3.

It's going to be based on the new underwater world; basically a spearfishing mod. Players will have the option to play single player, or competitively against others in multiplayer. You will have additional options to go scubadiving or freediving. Hopefully we can adjust and add new features of fish etc, As I want the option to introduce species of fish, such as bream, marlin, and sharks etc.

I am the 3D modeller, So i'll be able to incorporate various spearguns, knife attachments, and hand spears.

Dear god, please leave Insurgency on the server all the time.

My friend and I played for almost 7 hours straight today. :O Had a fucking blast! Even though the base alarm won't stop going off.
