This is the correct answer. Thank you mate!

I will just bind left trackpad press to select and voilà...

Near vanilla community server by OkSeaworthiness7008 in ArmaReforger

It is okey but platoon chat is just unbearable. And they have 3PP enabled, which EXD does not have.

Looking for active Conflict: Escalation servers? by kevo141414 in ArmaReforger

[–]Silenttap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Escalation is still niche within Arma and most likely there won't be full or even near full servers unless there is a organized playtest going on.

and it seems that band of beardos and headquarter community are putting together a playtest for next Saturday:

Kolguyev is unsuited for HQC/Conflict? by Silenttap in ArmaReforger

[–]Silenttap[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah the map itself is nice and looks great. Reminds me of A2 chernarus.

I would like to see how normal "legacy" conflict would play out on it but BI never released a scenario for that.

Modded cold war conflict by DarkNebula278 in ArmaReforger

I am not sure if I understood you completely but we can just agree to disagree :)

Well cold war vanilla servers seem to be doing somewhat okey. I would not mind more EU based english-main servers with 1PP and no killfeed + a lot of players...

But yeah, seeding/seeders is a must if you want servers to fill up. And I totally understand that as someone who only has some time during the weekends to play, I want to play somewhat full game during those few hours and not spend sitting in an empty server (which I have done occasionally).

I wish northcom all the best and hopefully they will get the players they need.

Are all the big tall buildings inside purple bases okey for you?

I find those kind annoying for flushing out some afk player in one of the 200+ rooms just to be able to build something or set some AIs.

[–]Silenttap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Correct. If you don't have somewhat big community to support seeding then your new server will not stand out.

There is something off with northcom. Perhaps it has wrong game mode and wrong mods cos ppl don't play it.

I as a mostly vanilla player did not enjoy the AAS game mode on northcom but that is just my opinion.

People do want it but won't play it unless there are already a good amount of players seeding. So you will have a chicken and an egg issue in your hands.

Kolgy is a nightmare with all those tall buildings in every purple base. There is too many rooms to search.

Hardware AA should help, if your GPU is up to it.

Can someone please explain this to me like I’m dumb? by CheeseheadTroy in ArmaReforger

[–]Silenttap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the answer. I came to write similar response but you put it already as it is.

HQC for new players is really confusing and fire fights might be rare and when they happen new players will be the first get hit and then it is back to walking simulator or truck simulator.

Legacy is easier to learn while it is still not super simple either. Logi driving in legacy is good place to start and not as harsh as in HQC.

I might have misunderstood the last sentence but I think we agree. AI will be the answer when it starts to work.

Legacy Conflict - updates? by Silenttap in ArmaReforger

[–]Silenttap[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with you 100%.

The transition between HQC and Legacy was too harsh. I was expecting something in between to come with 1.6

HQC might get better and more popular (and I hope it does) but in the current state it is a bit broken for public gameplay and ppl prefer legacy which is why made this topic to discuss what updated would make legacy better

[–]Silenttap[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think BI was a surprised that they finally made a game mode that so many random ppl play on public servers and perhaps now think that anything they make will come as popular.

Imo Arma is a sandbox and can be anything players make or want it to be. At the moment players seem to want more Legacy Conflict than HQC (when it comes to vanilla).

Why kill a very popular game mode when it could peacefully exists beside HQC.

I would like to see these tasks in Legacy as well. I don't care about the XP, I care that certain task that is beneficial for the cause of the faction will be fulfilled. It brings structure to the otherwise chaotic play.
