You don't have to watch the entire tank tutorial but i recommend "Taktiken und Man?ver" @33:88

@ConfusedMaster You might want to watch these 2 german tutorials about tanks and apc's http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5dYnva-SGKk http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pNh3r8v0otw They are very well made and explain how to use armored vehicles most effectively. Sadly no English version available

Armed vehicles! I'm in, Bradley gunner if possible or even commander if we're running short. Now, I only have to finaly fix acre... !dash

@Speirs, Yes, we did see some playing in the snow but the were to far away to take a good picture @Blud, Nope, no girls named Helga found.

glad you guys liked them, luckily the weather stayed nice throughout most of the journey. !beach

Some of you may have noticed my absence over the weekend and on the ArmA 2 event. That's because I was on a 3 day hiking tour through the southern Swiss mountains. During that awesome trip, I made some pictures with my new Galaxy S3 smartphone and uploaded them to Panoramio. They can now be seen if you http://www.panoramio.com/photo_explorer#view=photo&position=0&with_photo_id=74060398&order=date&user=6993528 (Fullscreen mode recommended) Cheers, Iffn

Cheers, Iffn

the world is not always that easy calv... this guy has pretty much the same problem https://dev-heaven.net/issues/31174

currently trying to install the mods 1 by 1, multiple crashes expected. I'll join with my usual delay if I get it working...

six updater crashed my pc both times i tried to update today, therefore not able to join you guys this time have fun!

I'm in with my usual 30min delay

Never played DotA, LoL or HoN since I've heard they are pretty hard to get into but it would probably be a fun game to get into with CoOp partners. I would be interested in trying out classic DotA or one of it's free to play copies with you and some other community members but I'm not sure about DotA 2 yet...

I'm in with my regulair delay. I guess I'll join "that crazy welsh dude" as a Marksman DMR as discussed with Gaz Harriers are alowed but no armored support? Not even a tiny LAV-25? !resent

Terremer and me are in the American server, everyone else in Europe I think...

WARNING: When playing Diablo 3, you can either connect to the American, the European or the Asian server. Characters created in 1 region can not be ported to an other region as of yet. Every player has 10 character slots in every region. This means that European characters can not play with characters created in the US. My gamertag is Iffn#1504 with an i I'm currently playing with a level 16 wizzard who just finished act 1 on the American servers and getting a ping of 200-300 which is a bit laggy but playable. I assume lag issues will be further fixed in the near future though. I will probably start playing on European servers once we get some coop games goin.

I'm in, looking forward to another awesome acre battle

@lupago post updated with more information about possible training options

Sounds cool, count me in too! Curretnly western European summer time, UTC+2 A few suggestions: - Infantry seems to be very populair but I would like to see some armored training possibilities too if possible. I'm currently working on a training mission and researching tactics so I should be able to teach interested newcomers. - It might be useful split some of the smaller training sessions to fit into the European and American/Australian time schedules.

Follow-up to Calvs report: After Calv got shot, Savage, Eclipse and me pushed forward to take the camp, supported by I believe Castor's squad from the village and later on by the respawned Semler and Ingo. Despite losses, we were finaly able to take the camp and advance to the next checkpoint to win the mission. Capturing the island in the second attempt went much better with, as far as i know, no losses but everyone died in the attempt to capture the second objective "Camp" due to the presence of a bmp 2 and some aimbot-guided bots. Despite the problems I had getting the damned thing to work, ACRE makes ArmA 2 much more believable. Looking forward to the next event!

i should be in if i get acre working... problem is that i will probably be afk between 20:00-20:40 GMT

I think I still have 2 keys if you want one

The servers are currently limited to a certain number of players which makes it unlikely to log in and play *~1 hour later* Was able to get in and played with a wizard for about an hour. I assume the graphics aren't at the final level and some of the story elements seem to be missing but the gameplay is fun as hell. Can't wait to play it in CoOp!

Added you on Steam. I just hope you ordered yourself a good flight stick with a lot of buttons or you are going to learn quite a few hotkeys http://en.wiki.eagle.ru/w/images/c/c6/A10C_RC_DEF_KEY_ASSGNMENT_%28US%29.pdf

still, might be true they made the joke before and they are definitely working on it

Still not sure if true...
