Sounds great. Looking forward to playing squad with some familiar faces. If we are to use PR rules then we may have to gently role them in for players who arent in the VG community as they are used to little to no enforcement on other servers. Things like squad naming and who has the right to certain vehicles is sometimes a problem so it will br best for us to try and teach them instead of using kicks and bans right off the bat and maybe grow a larger player base for this type of gameplay we are looking for at VG. Im sure there will people in the squad community who will be down for a more VG approach on the game.

in the top left when you press caps lock you can toggle certain icons on the map e.g FOB radius and number of supplies at each radio. If you go on custom browser there are servers with maps for this kind of thing (jenson’s range) where you can pick your faction from 2 that are currently in play and take any kit you would like and practice with it. There is a firing range for both vehicles, normal small arms and any emplacements you would like to try. You can even practice flying or go on a FIBUA(fighting in built up areas) or CQB course if you would like.

Yeah sound s good, maybe not this weekend for me as i have exams next week but im good for the next one. here’s s my steam: https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198272566862

I have been playing squad quite a lot recently, just come back to it after a long break and have been having quite a lot of fun on it. Yes it is quite disorganised to what you would usually think a game like this should be like. But not in every game, the new commander feature added allows a Sql to be voted for the role by other Sqls. This feature allows alot of coordination in games and can actually lead to a victory or a loss depending on the commander and his/her tactics. The commander does get access to off map supports and a UAV but really this isn't normally thier strongest characteristic. Rarely do i play on PR where the commander takes command of the whole team and coordinate each squad but this is what occurs in most games in squad, especially in popular servers like PA 1 and 2. If you are in a squad where the Sql lead isnt always talking to your Squad and the communication seems a bit limited more than likely your Sql is gonna be communicating in the Sql only chat with the commander. The servers on squad have quite a different rules set when it comes to vehicles and squads but it all depends on the server you join. On PA(project awesome) servers rules regarding vehicles is that it must have at least 2 crew if a crewman kit is required and for squads, they can only be locked under 4 if they are 1 man squads e.g. logistics. Squad naming is more of a decency than a rule and pretty much any squad can take a vehicle if no other squad has claimed it already, IFV/BRDM squad taking a tank. The main reason for there being 2 heli squads instead of one or a one man BRDM(which doesn't require a crewman kit) is the ability to communicate with commander and other Sqls. Joining the game and seeing things like those above may seem like it is discouraging team work but really it is just a way to increase communication. That BRDM on its own could be scouting for HABs (respawn locations) or vehicles so the team can act together to remove those assets from the battle field. But the rules depend on the server. Also just for ease any rule that may be unusual can be displayed in red text at the top pf every players screen automatically every 10 mins or so (I assume this can be set to different timings). I think a server with the current VG PR ruleset could be used but adapted more to the sqaud player base because we wouldn't want them to come on the server and do something that they would normally consider ok, get kicked or warned and not want to play. The aussie mod would be nice but i pretty sure at the moment that on the mod description in the workshop the author has written that he wouldn't like anyone to host the mod on their own server but for it to be only hosted on an official server created by the mod author. I saw this a few months ago so i am unsure if it is still true. I would be down to play on a VG server or if anyone wants to play with me i am usually on PA 1 or 2 and if u would like any help getting into the game i am sure i can put my couple of hundred hours to use Cheers, Hoops

Well done, probably the best arma 3 event i have every taken part in (although it was my first lol). It was really good fun and a good laugh. I think the mission idea was great and not too complex just following the trail of enemies from rv to rv. As for my suggestions for the next event, I think it would be good fun having a convoy mission through takistan with ambushes on the way to a compound of some sort and then a defence or maybe just picking up supplies to go to the next compound. Whatever you decide to do im sure it will be great. Thanks sausage.

Sometimes this does happen on Al Basrah. Not sure if it is just this map or not but it is known as the ‘deaddead glitch’ and it is where all players load into the map and have the black screen that displays ‘DEAD’ as you said. There doesn’t seem to be any way to get around this glitch atm appart from someone logging onto TC and restarting the server. If you want any more info on this it is probably best to talk to Deathdealer or BinkleDinkle as they are the ones that told me most of the above.

Bravo SL pls

Hey, re. title: Canadian Kokan (CAS??) Heli I am slightly confused if this heli is considered a CAS asset or not as over my time of playing PR i have been told by multiple players and VG members that it is/isn't a CAS heli. I have also searched the forums for any existing answers to this and found nothing. I have been told it is a grey area and not quite yet decided. But it would be nice to know if it is or isn't so i don't have to be moaned at for using it as a trans or CAS. Cheers, Hoops

Hi Hausmann, Could you please fill out the template from the link below so we can look further into your ban. Doing this would be greatly appreciated as it makes our job just a little easier. Cheers, Hoops

Squad is in a pretty good state rn with a good amount of servers up and frequent updates. Most games i join i get a squad that all has mics and the communication is great, there is always at least one medic in each squad but normally not two because the second medic only has iron sights. There is not much i can really say that is bad about the game apart from the fact that it is still in development and some people could say that there is not enough content but personally i think it is great.

I have been playing squad recently and i was wondering if anyone would like to join me.

Yes I did kick him twice before this yesterday for asset stealing and waste but with the warns before this to land the chopper he didn’t land, so I think he should have a break and come have a chat on the forums

It would be good if we had a little more detail please fill out this template and we can then look into ur appeal. If you would like to Appeal your Ban, please provide the following information: 1. Banned Username 2. What Server(s)?* 3. When did this happen? 4. Reason you were banned 5. Describe the events leading up to your ban ( how did this occur and why? ) 6. Personal Statement ( Why should we unban you? )

Merry Christmas

Server crashes do happen but most of the time you just have to join back in once and you can get back to playing. But with some of the maps the sever can crash more frequently because of assets, most likely jets or helicopters, flying out of the map (most of the times bots will fly straight south to get you but you). If you read this and are thinking of getting into or already flying assets or maybe you already are flying please try to not do this because it sucks when your game play gets interrupted by a crash.
