markwilfan Posted March 18, 2013 Posted March 18, 2013 Cheers rawns. I will spread the love to hawkeyez as he was the next in line. Will do later Sorry @Hawkeyez , tried to hook you up last night after a mental weekend but my steam gifts say I don't have another one to gift. Can anybody hook up Hawkeyez? sorrryyyy
Rawns Posted March 18, 2013 Author Posted March 18, 2013 I was online this morning...I dont often go on the PC, but when I do...I play a game to ruination! Cool, I saw you on my friends list so sent you the invite (which you have most likely seen by now) 1
featured_spectre Posted March 18, 2013 Posted March 18, 2013 I saw it Rawns Duly downloading (provided the mrs didnt turn the PC off)
Rawns Posted March 18, 2013 Author Posted March 18, 2013 I did not know about this until the weekend, but the devs are actively hot-fixing/patching the alpha release and you can opt in to the "Beta" Alpha release using the "opt-in" option in the game properties within Steam. It will cause problems though if you want to play online in public servers as your versions need to match. Same goes for co-op play too.
GTX Posted March 18, 2013 Posted March 18, 2013 Darn! I wanted to try it Cant beat DayZ. Role on DayZ standalone! Lets hope someone i know will let me have one. If anyone wants to play Arma 2 Operation arrow head. Give me a shout
Sunnyknight Posted March 18, 2013 Posted March 18, 2013 Lets hope someone i know will let me have one. If anyone wants to play Arma 2 Operation arrow head. Give me a shout If 90% of the servers weren't so laggy, i'd actually get back onto it. Also, i never knew a m107 at close range in the chest doesn't kill someone?! Realism? My foot!
DMcGuigan Posted March 18, 2013 Posted March 18, 2013 Keys will be going out tonight to the first three that got in touch, that would be LosOjos, L3OUGH and VeryPC_Tom_M. There are still a lot of the DOTA Keys left if there's anyone left out there who wants one.. or ten.

Well ain't you lucky. I'm still waiting for BT to roll out infinity in my area. Stuck on the one and only, ADSL! lol Get better pings than everyone in any other game, just Arma 2 :/
featured_spectre Posted March 18, 2013 Posted March 18, 2013 I will take all of the DOTA keys off your hands @DMcGuigan
LosOjos Posted March 18, 2013 Posted March 18, 2013 @DMcGuigan thanks again Look forward to testing my machine's mettle with some ARMA3 and seeing what all this fuss about DOTA is about... (I'm a recent PC gaming convert)
DMcGuigan Posted March 18, 2013 Posted March 18, 2013 (edited) @nephilim I'll get you sorted, which email do you want them sending too? Drop me a PM and I'll do it when I get in. Edited March 18, 2013 by DMcGuigan
Hawkeyez Posted March 20, 2013 Posted March 20, 2013 If anyone has one still, would be grateful. Been away for 2 days, so forgot to check-in...
LosOjos Posted March 20, 2013 Posted March 20, 2013 Took 2 days to download (crappy Sky broadband) but it's finally done! Now I just need to figure out how to play. I played 15 minutes this morning on the infantry preview, got killed as soon as the enemy engaged every time! It works with the Xbox pad, but the controls don't seem intuitive at all - think I'll stick to keyboard and mouse for this one!

Wile a game pad will work up to a point, ARMA3 is really not designed to be played with one. It's a military simulator and a game pad simply cannot provide the same level of control as a mouse and keyboard can. Saying that, if you do have one, it's handy to have it close to hand and configured for air vehicle control. Edited March 20, 2013 by Rawns

It's a military simulator and a game pad simply cannot provide the same level of control as a mouse and keyboard can. Yeah it quickly became apparent that there was a lot more to it than your average FPS and the Xbox pad just down't have enough buttons to control it all! Saying that, if you do have one, it's handy to have it close to hand and configured for air vehicle control. Handy to know, thanks I seem to remember somebody posting a free version of ARMA ages ago, but my PC at the time couldn't cope with it. Am I remembering that right or did I dream it? Thinking a little training in the way ARMA games work will be necessary to get the most out of ARMAIII alpha... A quick search and I found it: http://www.edugeek.net/forums/gaming/85615-armed-assault-ii-free.html And the direct link to the website to download if anyone is interested: http://www.arma2.com/free Edited March 20, 2013 by LosOjos
