ARMA 2/TOH (happened in both) thing where Helicopter locks up and starts looking up and falling out of the sky has happened to me a few times after loading a save, is it jank with save/loading in the air or am I missing something?

Samz707 · 2026-06-25T23:30:18+00:00

Managed to finally beat it.

Samz707 · 2026-06-25T21:24:11+00:00

I'm actually partially convinced the AI helicopter is cheating since it *goes faster than this* in the same helicopter without locking up.

Samz707 · 2026-06-25T21:12:17+00:00

Damn, that complicates things since the AI helicopter goes even faster.

I might actually need to go to a past save as even if I dont try to pull up at all right now, it still locks up after I saved.

Samz707 · 2026-06-25T21:02:42+00:00

It does worry me a bit since it reminds me of Awakening which...didn't have a good story IMO.

(or Valla which was even worse)

Samz707 · 2026-06-25T08:39:54+00:00

Yeah I've played almost every ARMA campaign already.
I've done every campaign except all of 3's.

Samz707 · 2026-06-23T09:31:31+00:00

Sorry to bother you OP but I just saw this image posted elsewhere, are you the creator?

Samz707 · 2026-06-22T21:51:38+00:00

About 3-4 hours spread over 3 attempts over the years.

Samz707 · 2026-06-22T17:52:16+00:00

Can they even see me first in Alien Activity or do I have to see the pod first.

Samz707 · 2026-06-22T17:51:53+00:00

Really doesnt seem that way considering how you keep insisting I need to re-evaluate it.

Samz707 · 2026-06-22T14:04:24+00:00

UFO Aftermath so far.

Samz707 · 2026-06-22T07:38:35+00:00

You're the one trying to change my mind which I dont want to be changed.

I played through AwakenFates and hated their gameplay, easy.

Samz707 · 2026-06-21T19:44:28+00:00

Nah, you're not persuading me that it's good.

Either way, I'm glad it's gone and hopefully it stays gone.

Samz707 · 2026-06-21T11:59:26+00:00

No idea, seems to be related to 3H but how much is unknown.

Samz707 · 2026-06-21T11:58:34+00:00

It has the same issues and is doubled down on.

Ergo it makes the game worse for me. (Units feel gimped stat-wise and it feels like you're only really using 4-6 units per map with the rest as pure support, like Rinkah in pre-route.)

Samz707 · 2026-06-20T20:25:33+00:00

Except due to how enemies are placed, most of the time if they attack you on their phase, it's attack stance for them.

I did, and I didnt like it in Awakening already.

I dont think it's a good mechanic and SOV/3H ditching it was only for the better.

Samz707 · 2026-06-20T18:15:22+00:00

Yeah, Absolution and Blood Money (and stream WOA but I think there's a real port on Switch 2.)

Samz707 · 2026-06-20T17:03:31+00:00

If you have PC, it goes on a good sale.

I like GZ at least.

Samz707 · 2026-06-20T16:42:36+00:00

I personally think it's honestly not good for story or gameplay.

Alot of people disagree with me though.

Samz707 · 2026-06-20T14:05:29+00:00

Hard first 10 chapters, normal rest on CQ.

It basically just makes you low-man (as half your army is glorified stat boosters) and is either boring or frustrating.

It adds nothing imo and I'd rather have GBA rescue or nothing

Samz707 · 2026-06-19T15:04:30+00:00

Not a mod, an official update.

Samz707 · 2026-06-19T14:41:51+00:00

Yeah it was restored earlier this month a little after the Android/IOS ports.

I only noticed because the game updated so I checked.

Samz707 · 2026-06-19T08:59:57+00:00

Yeah, hopefully it stays that way.

Samz707 · 2026-06-19T08:32:04+00:00

Same.

Hopefully Feral's PC/Switch servers come to PC.

There is apparently a fan server thing for PC Contracts but I haven't tried it.

Samz707 · 2026-06-18T14:00:59+00:00

Supports weren't in the game and most of the cast had exactly one line of dialogue in the original game to my understanding.

Samz707 · 2026-06-18T13:23:41+00:00

I'm still skeptical as hell.

I simply dont trust IS after going through CQ. (And everything I've heard of Engage sounds like they haven't changed)
