If you want to play ArmA 2 with us, read all the info in the op of the old thread!
Join the IFAP ARMA group as well to see when events are happening: http://steamcommunity.com/groups/ifaparma

NEW:
If you want to play with us, use tortoiseSVN to download all this (see picture below): https://subversion.assembla.com/svn/...a-compilation/
Don't forget ACE as well (instructions in the old vidya game thread)!

More info on the SVN:

Hey hey, we've got an SVN compilation for Arma mods we use often or want to use often. The goal here is just to create an (extremely) easy way for everyone to have the mods they need when they need them, so on gameday we don't need to waste time downloading a bunch of mods, and lets us use small obscure mods that a lot of people would object to going through the effort installing. Whenever games are planned, I'll just recommend everyone updating within 24 hours of the game, or whenever we start up small, unplanned games. Takes a fraction of the amount of time it takes to update ACE. Next step is making sure everyone knows how to use tortoiseSVN. But for those that do, this is the URL:

https://subversion.assembla.com/svn/...a-compilation/

The content inside the checked-out folder is the same as the interior of any @Armamodhere. Create a folder named @IFAP, right click and checkout to that URL. Then add the mod to your command line as you would any other mod. Contents are in the root directory's readme. Just a word of warning: it contains the McTierOne units, which is rather large at 150mb, but just deal with the download, it helps new IFAPers get it too. This just means you don't need your original McTierone. But yeah it would be nice if we could start using this, next time we plan a big game I think it's going to be planned around the contents of the IFAP pack.

We usually play:
ArmA 2
Battlefield 2 (PR)
Team Fortress 2
Garry's Mod

We use Mumble when we play so make sure you are on it.

Part one (in which I roll around in spawn for 15 minutes):

Part two (in which the crew sings bohemian rhapsody then gets ambushed for their terrible singing):

Part three (in which everybody fucking DIES):

In response to your question, yes I have a mic. I generally don't use it but if I played with you guys I would. We should also all change our steam names to variations of "Something Smith" and troll people about Macs being superior.

You need ACE and we generally also play with McTierone. ACE guide was the OP of the old vidya thread:

http://www.facepunch.com/threads/104...a-Game-Edition

And Tier one units. You'll learn how to install pretty much any mod in the ACE guide.

iFail · 16th July 2011

i want to buy arma co just to find out what is up with this pooch thing.

Mbbird · 17th July 2011

I think your computer would be fine running arma. I think Tark runs his and still has fun on something like a 1.7ghz SINGLE and probably worse graphics card. Arma is very CPU heavy, and I had a 9400 GT once, which is worse than the 8600 IIRC, and it didn't run too bad.

Ok, now it's just to see if I can convince my mom. I've been playing the demo and I'm really bad at it. Can't even beat Coltan Blues on recruit. Shooting is easy, but it seems like that level's weapon options suck for close range.

Can some lurker like me join you sometime?

My PC isn't even that amazing and I can run it on medium with max view distance and still have a decent frame rate. I have a 3.2GHz i3 and a HD5450.
