[magic pebble]

Insurgency and HLL are doing fine with gore

[austere nimbus]

yup, and are PEGI-18 for that reason

Not to mention the Armaverse is anti-war, so it doesn't make sense to add gore at such detail
Although it would be nice to have it possible to have it through mods, in case people really want it (for realism, or just because of sick minds)

[chilly briar]

Realism. Insurgency takes the cake for realism imo

[magic pebble]

Won't having gore in game be more of an anti war move then not having it though? The way Insurgency and HLL do is you get an option in the settings to activate it.

[quaint copper]

I agree with the sentiment that more blood and gore will make it more appallable. Make the war seem less heroic, than say, the main menus cool sounding heroic music might make it seem.
HLL does it similarly, where the main menu is bright and colorful and there's glorious music.... Then you get in game, and it's a staunch 180 from that.

Movies like All Quiet on the Western Front, and shows like Band of Brothers show off what war is actually like, instead of glorifying it by censoring it

Then again Arma Reforger is dying and needs sales. No gore, more players please.

[lost moon]

Any confirmation that bans will finally be permanent in 0.97?? pls

[keen anvil]

Is there a ticket system

[wraith kindle]

The best way to be anti war is to show how brutal it can be. If you censor war and violence you show people that the consequences aren’t as bad as they actually are. Same thing with Children’s media. If you show the good guys fighting the bad guys and nobody actually dies, you show children that warfare and violence doesn’t actually hurt anyone.

No, there are prompts to unbind controls but last I looked they didn’t do anything

[toxic fiber]

Ah thanks anyways

[stray blade]

Just add smell of burnt/rotting corpses mixed with the smell of blood to the game. Im sure it will turn everyone away from trying to experience war.

[silent yoke]

how are people playing the really complex piano songs on the church piano, is it scripts? Midi Files?

[remote cairn]

Does keyboard and mouse work on console?

[dawn widget]

The game will never attract a consistent playerbase with so many disconnects and server crashes still happening like 4 months after release. Pretty sad. Player numbers are almost 0 on PC and like around 100 on xbox ?!

[foggy ridge]

peaks are 150 on pc, but generally you are right

[stray blade]

It will be hard to recover from initial drop. But its getting better

[sand verge]

In the air assault update can we be expecting parachutes?

[sand verge]

In the air assault update can we be expecting parachutes?

[sand verge]

Yes

[random cape]

If it's not on the roadmap to 1.0 then No Promises™️... especially since the aircraft are only the Mi-8MT and the UH-1H

[sand verge]

Thank you for your time

Oh yes I do have one more

Can we expect NVG to come

[random cape]

Same answer I'm afraid... for reference here's said roadmap: https://reforger.armaplatform.com/news/roadmap

I've already seen the Colt 4x20 and the Sa-58P in a screenshot in the recent Dev Report #14, along with a second screenshot that has been guessed to be Arland, so it's possible that the upcoming 0.9.7 will still be released to stable branch (and declared to be Ground Support milestone) by the end of this year

The only promise Bohemia Interactive has made about Arma Reforger post-launch is that it'll be supported up until Arma 4 is released

[sand verge]

Thanks

[random cape]

With the release of the game's 1.0 update next year, the support of Arma Reforger definitely doesn't end there and it won't end until the release of Arma 4, but that's a story for the future! - Quote from the above roadmap link

That said, The environment, historical context, and all of the assets, as well as our modding tools and features, will all be redeployed for the next Arma instalment, alongside a slew of extra content. Arma 4 however, will release as an independent title and will build on all the lessons learned from Arma Reforger. - Quote from the game's Web site FAQ

Although afaik BI has yet to definitively rule out any asset types as never coming to Reforger

[sand verge]

Arma 4 is coming to consoles?

[random cape]

According to an Arma Reforger Branding & Marketing Guide leaked right before Arma Reforger's announcement, yes... although that was half a year ago now

[high rune]

I don't really agree, for at least one obvious reason: everyone wants gore in games, so clearly it's not that appalling. It's not real human suffering, it's virtual human suffering, which makes it very easy to get used to. It doesn't make the game less enjoyable to play, it clearly makes it more exciting and gritty as graphic violence and gore is something that movies/tv shows/games have been pushing more and more for and audiences eat it up (see Game of Thrones, The Boys). If gore in games actually made people hesitant to play or something I might agree, but that's clearly not the case. It just makes the game more of a realistic murder simulator/power fantasy experience and isn't really pertinent to the focus of the game.

Anyone who has watched a lot of combat footage will be quite familiar with the fact that people getting shot/blown up in war doesn't generally result in much visible blood and gore as is typically depicted in games. Not that it never happens, but it's not the norm, and when it does happen it's nothing like how games depict it

Even Arma 3's little cloud of blood that appears when people get shot is generally not something that happens in real life, let alone the mods that make people explode in a big cloud of guts or lose all their limbs when a grenade goes off nearby

Seeing death on a screen is never going to hit you the same way it does to see it in real life, so I think trying to make the violence maximally visually realistic is just gratuitous. Before you go about adding a bunch of gore to make it more violent it would make more sense to start by adding random personal memorabilia into soldier's pockets so that you search bodies and find e.g. a photo of the soldier's wife and kids or pets or something. If that sounds like an absurd idea then the motivation to add more gore is clearly just wanting it to be more violent for violence's sake and to be more exciting, not to actually make it more anti-war.

[random cape]

https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/RealityIsUnrealistic

[random cape]

This is much more in the vein of what Bohemia Interactive did with Laws of War

[high rune]

Yep, I think BI understands all this pretty well so I doubt we're going to be seeing Ground Branch-style "I'm edgy and browse /r/watchpeopledie" death physics

The way Arma has always done it has suited its purposes just fine

[random cape]

When it comes to 'authentic/realistic' I definitely think that the backlash to the Arma 3 aesthetic (which to is almost a decade old now) has skewed some people's impressions of both what's out there (read: fits the literal definition of modern) and how widespread some of the 'OP' technologies have become already

[high rune]

Are you talking about backlash to the time period/setting?

[random cape]

Yes

Though some of it was also the inclusion of 'OP' tech (e.g. 'no HMMWVs with manned machine guns, just MRAPs with remote guns which you can barely do anything to without launchers' for the three main military factions) and, it seems to me, a sense of the setting 'taking away the challenge/sense of vulnerability' that was part of Operation Flashpoint: Cold War Crisis' appeal and which carried over into Arma and Arma 2

Seeing as when these designs were coming to public knowledge, though, I thought it was a case of the definition of modern marches on... and not every one of those players reconciling with the fact that what they wanted had become historical/past

I specify that to distinguish from those players who've been up-front about wanting Cold War Gone Hot™️

[fathom osprey]

Spot on, Quentin Tarantino effects are not realistic... and "anti-war gore"? lmao.

[random cape]

Didn't a BI devblog admit that some of the blood effects were heightened because some players wanted more obvious hit location?

[austere nimbus]

I think the medical update in 0.9.7 gets limb specific hit points, so I guess this will mean also the possibly for limb specific hit effects. And with increasing the amount of blood effects this should be decent improvement, especially at longer ranges.

[random cape]

... this reminds me that Call of Duty actually did include limb-specific hit effects on Infinite Warfare

In that game's Specialist and #YOLO difficulties chest damage = overall accuracy decrease, leg damage = hindered movement, right-arm damage = extreme visual sway when aiming down sights (although unlike Arma 3 the actual crosshair center isn't effected), and left-arm damage = almost no equipment use (except for the Nano Shot healing item), aiming down sights, or even melee 😱

[fathom osprey]

it's better than an actual hitmarker. and believable hit reaction is complicated animation. see: ARMA 3 weird flinch. but I think puff of dust is generally more realistic than a big cloud of blood.

[random cape]

Yeah, apparently 'puff of dust' wasn't enough for some players so the devblog admitted that they were going with blood

[high rune]

That's acceptable imo, it's not super realistic but it's at least somewhat believable and it's not too overdone, and obviously better than CoD hitmarkers or something

That's not the same thing as adding like dismemberment and big blood spatter on walls and all that Hollywood stuff that adds nothing to the game, it's the combat equivalent of gratuitous sex on TV; might be vaguely related to the subject but definitely not essential to the core function, and is mostly about being shocking and exciting for the audience

[thorn furnace]

Reforger is PEGI 16. i.e. there will not be dismemberment as you need an 18 rating for that.

[strange crown]

I agree with what you say, but I'd argue the amount of violence/brutality really depends on the conflict and time period too.

[stray blade]

And then you have Doom. Sure you can argue you are killing demons, but i dont think gore ever turned anyone away from games, nor is it making them anti-war. Some ppl just enjoy gore in games.

Come down to realism, standard small arms munition/grenades wouldnt cause some movie like decapitation or torn limbs.
Youd get that by .50 cal or larger caliber, or focused explosions like ap mines, or high caliber artillery shells.

[quaint copper]

Gore is one of the most antiwar things you can show in media

[stray blade]

Irl yes. In game no

[twin rock]

A friend of mine has problems with the Conflict mod he cant download it... any ideas

[stray blade]

Official conflict is not a mod?

[foggy ridge]

maybe he means capture and hold

[strange crown]

Does watching a gory horror movie feel antiwar? I'm not saying gore is bad, but it has a time and place

[quaint copper]

All is Quiet on the Western Front. Enough said

[stray blade]

Yes there is gore, but its more of a psychological side of the movie that sets the score, showing initial excitement of going to war, just cause all your friends are going, that quickly dwindles until you go numb to events around you.

[quaint copper]

It shows the reality of war

[strange crown]

The first film has gore, but does not take up much screentime, making it feel more impactful when it shows such extremes, especially since it's written by one who experienced such things. The 70's movie has little at all, and still gets the plot told very well. The new one is definitely a movie.

Back to Reforger. The problem with Gore in a game like this is that it not only increases the rating, but also means it turns into constant spectacle. What is the difference between killing someone in multiplayer with or without Gore other than "wow that's nasty looking".

[quaint copper]

Im talking specifically about the 2022 movie

[strange crown]

Have you read the book?

[quaint copper]

I have, and I find the differences interesting

The new movie completely removed the last third of the original story and focused almost solely on the warfare and brutal part itself

[strange crown]

I think we're getting a bit off topic. Point is. If reforger was single player and was made entirely to show the "horrors of war", they would have marketed the game as that.

[quaint copper]

Which goes against their current public views and statements about the arma games being anti war
If theyve lied to us about that what else are they lying to us about?

[stray blade]

I still fail to understand how you would convey that in video game, for example in the movie it shows build up of character and you feel something when you see them lying in a mud with leg torn off minutes later.

You cant feel the same in game as you know they will just respawn...

You can in SP campaign but not mp

[strange crown]

Let's put it this way, if you need realistic Gore, then you should also need that level of detail in depicting people's lives and the suffering their family's go through.

They've shown that they are willing to that without Gore needed in Arma 3, so I feel to see why a multiplayer game would need that

[magic pebble]

Honestly, the game being anti war is just something they said.
Everyone plays the game because war is cool and hip and got respawn and no civilians just like irl

[strange crown]

Did you play laws of war?

[stray blade]

Games give you a joy and rush of war experience, without the horror part of it. And thats why ppl play them.

[magic pebble]

Yeah I mad etime for a couple of hours campaign in the midst of all my senseless butchering in the game

[strange crown]

Correct. But games can also carry emotion and tell a story. It's pretty clear that this is not the focus of reforger, so it makes sense not to show such levels of violence.

[stray blade]

Laws of war was awesome campaign. Doesnt change the fact that me and my friends use ... indiscriminate measures... against civies in ops (just something that might get in the way between a bullet meant for the enemy). Unless zeus threatens to kick us if we kill them (even on accident).

[stray blade]

Yep as ive said, its impossible to convey that in multiplayer environment, you aint gonna feel sad because your friend died infront of you, if anything you will record it with added caption "git gud"

[strange crown]

And that's perfectly fine, since at a base level you know that what you are doing is wrong in a real world scenario.

In such a expansive game with multiple ways to play and things to do, adding such realism takes away from the "fun".

Instead of hitting someone with a car being a funny occurrence, it becomes a legitimate tragedy graphics wise. Falling from a great height is sickening instead of a funny mishap.

[stray blade]

But yeah, more gore in my opinion is not needed. If you want that extra "Ufff", there is already a mod for it.

[strange crown]

I think we need a pyrovision mod

[stray blade]

That would be great to see 😄

[foggy ridge]

metal gear rising level of cutting objects

also voronoi fracture everything

[stray blade]

And fracking

[austere nimbus]

@prisma valve try #communities_arma3 or #looking_for_unit , because there are quite a few

[jolly moth]

What’s the key bind to draw on the map on Xbox?

Nevermind

[high rune]

Most people's reaction to gore and violence in games is "haha awesome" which is why people use mods to add it in, most people aren't adding it in because they find it disturbing and want to make the game more unpleasant to play

And in my experience the same thing is even true for showing graphic imagery from real life, since it's just a video of a stranger getting blown up or mutilated, people grow used to it very quickly unless they are particularly mature in their empathy and critical thinking

It's why you go onto e.g. /r/combatfootage and half the comments are garbage like "boom, headshot!" and "double kill!" and other video-game related crap posted on a video of actual people being killed

People don't see gore/violence and try to put themselves in the shoes of the person dying, they put themselves in the shoes of the shooter

[fathom osprey]

Not sure how anyone who has ever played ANY online shooter would think otherwise...

[earnest echo]

no new updates since 4 of november and not too much info about the progress? Looks kinda abandoned...

[graceful terrace]

seems like, but, they are working hard on Arma 3... I hope they understood that they change the game and not us... 🙂

[sand verge]

Heya. There was an update on the 10th, minor fixes. Idk about not too much info about progress, we are talking all the time here, people are confirming fixes, etc.

[earnest echo]

That was the experimental things of the 4th of november, so, still the same progress i think

[quaint copper]

I wish there was both more communication and more transparency with Bohemia
Instead of waiting patiently for a month and a half for the occasional "oh yeah, were working hard, here's a random screenshot", I wanna hear like, weekly progress reports on bug fixes, progress on upcoming updates, etc etc

[foggy ridge]

I don't see why not to release small hotfixes more often

[quaint copper]

The lack of communication is my biggest frustration, and the snails pace they're fixing bugs is just
Infuriating

[foggy ridge]

bugs are being fixed all the time but you have to wait weeks for the update containing the fix

[quaint copper]

I'm waiting for the community to learn the engine and come out with like, an Unofficial Patch mod, that fixes all their shit before even they can

[foggy ridge]

not possible to mod the engine

[stray blade]

There should be a ground support update before the end of the year. And there isnt much of the year left. So, soon i guess?

[quaint copper]

Why would they wait for all the bugfixes to be in one update that might cause more issues than it fixes

Like the Scope bug with the RPG and shit that they didn't fix for like a month
When they can release them a few at a time and hotfix them the day after, before moving onto the next ones

[foggy ridge]

like, if you have a fix for a common crash there's little reason to wait with releasing it, while you wait a month, people keep crashing

[lyric obsidian]

I'm not defending anyone here, buts this is not how the deployment of hotfixes are being done

[earnest echo]

Hope so, cause the last dev report only says the 0.9.6 now its not the big update, now its the 0.9.7, but when?

[stray blade]

Roadmap says before the end of 2022

[earnest echo]

Thats the big problem, the game dont have too much playerbase not only by the lack of content, they can't even finish a conflict match or a private operation without massive crash

[stray blade]

I guess to test it so you dont introduce more issues than fixes? Remember TK thingamabob?

[shut cosmos]

Assuming Christmas break, and how hot fixes are usually ~2 weeks after a real update then I would have to bet tomorrow or next wednesday for an update

[earnest echo]

"While we've spent a lot of work refining 0.9.6, much of our focus is now on further updates - specifically our first Milestone Update - Ground Support (0.9.7). As we've said in previous Dev Reports, many features have shifted along our schedule, such as some Ground Support items being brought into 0.9.6 early. With that said, we know already that some features will be shifting (or swapping) between 0.9.7 and future updates on our Roadmap."

Not too sure with this they said on the dev report

[quaint copper]

Thanksgiving will probably be the best time to release it, it being an American holiday where people have off work

[foggy ridge]

I would happily endure random jank bugs if the larger crash issues were fixed - after all it's early access

[quaint copper]

It means that everything they have said so far is bullshit, the roadmap is Moot, and that chances are we're not going to see half the content in 0.9.7 Ground Support as we were told the goal would be

Given how underwhelming it has been this past year, that seems likeliest, that they're gonna hold off all the content

[graceful terrace]

Sadly, we, all of the one who care about the game, cause playing years on the same Arma, are totally blinded about whats going on in the game, and also, wiht any hope on they doing the things right, its a big error from the Bohemia strategic... we cant no even say to the people over Arma 3 to come play this game cause we can give then any good argument about this... Anysense on this...

[stray blade]

As a modder yes. But as a player them random jank bugs are frustrating. Like that TK really made public servers unplayable. And it still annoys me when my ADS bugs out.

[foggy ridge]

I'm ok with my animation bugging out if I don't randomly crash when I look at a light source

[stray blade]

You mean crashlights?

Ive noticed they also crash players when they try turning them off

[foggy ridge]

I would have submitted a report but I can't figure out how to reproduce it, the game would just freeze with driver errors in the log sometimes

one time I am running around with like 20 people with flashlights on and the next day I'll crash when one of them turns on, maybe it's nothing to do with the light after all

[stray blade]

Would be a fun troll strategy to actually physically remove GPU while playing the game and keep sumbitting crash reports

[foggy ridge]

help game crash when I unplug GPU

[stray blade]

But yeah with lights i also noticed that, but not vanilla flashlights, just modded weapon lights. Ive never crashed to it tho. But seen many others do.

[foggy ridge]

I feel like increasing the amount of light sources just increases the possibility of a crash, but no idea how I can run alongside 20 of them sometimes and be fine

[stray blade]

Maybe it has to do with something they illuminate?

[foggy ridge]

I've had this thought as well, also might be because the weapon ones are not set to dynamic so may not be well optimized, but if I set them to dynamic I might as well delete the mod because the game will force settings for them I can't change such as the size of the spotlight

[stray blade]

Also perhaps related to graphical settings. I run my game on medium, since my pc is oldtimer, and never had issues with it.

[foggy ridge]

but I also get the same freeze during daytime, though I'm sure there's always someone running around with 3 laser pointers on during the day

[stray blade]

Try with reduced setting and see if it persists

[foggy ridge]

no difference, enfusion is the only engine that gives me this issue (at least as far as the directx/driver stuff in the logs is concerned)

[stray blade]

Then i guess creation is fighting creator.

[quaint copper]

Bacon
Make a shotgun mod
With 8 rail slots on it, and the ability to slot 8 different flashlights on it
Blind anything in the general direction you point it at

[foggy ridge]

I had this issue in the first early release of Unreal Engine 5 but now I don't anymore (very similar error messages)

otherwise I'd probably look into making sure my hardware is ok

[stray blade]

Perhaps cause enfusion is too in early release.

[foggy ridge]

ill buy a 4080 ti when it's out just to test

[stray blade]

And then it turns out its a driver bug

[foggy ridge]

tried old drivers also GPU is the only thing I haven't replaced in the past 2 months

[stray blade]

Perhaps its something to do with game not running in fullscreen?

[foggy ridge]

I think darktide used to crash similarly in closed beta, but now it doesnt

eh, whatever

by now I've probably tried everything software-side no matter how stupid it sounded

maybe I should blow on the PCI-E slot like a NES cartridge to magically fix it

[stray blade]

Or replace toner cartridge in the printer

[foggy ridge]

you know, printers are so lame I wouldn't be surprised if it somehow found a way to crash reforger through wifi on my workstation

[stray blade]

They arent lame, just evil

[random cape]

Note that this seeming silence by BI comes after the weekly updates did fuck all as far as making a noticeable dent in the game's negative reputation

[bronze dagger]

Reforger has that bad of a rep already? dipped out after a week cause not much to do for the playtest

[foggy ridge]

well, on Steam they've gone from mostly negative to mixed so it is a step up

[random cape]

Didn't this come only after 0.9.6?

[foggy ridge]

I think they were mostly negative before 0.9.6 yeah

[bronze dagger]

i'd say if reforger was half the price at launch it wouldn't be nearly as bad, still pretty mixed though

[foggy ridge]

no way, people would have yelled at it anyways, even if they got it for free

[bronze dagger]

Point, but i'm just optimistic about it, even though i'm a pessimist per the norm.

[random cape]

In that case things changed only after BI was able to claim a major update instead of a string of weekly or biweekly updates... which instead went to experimental branch leading up to 0.9.6 stable

[foggy ridge]

I love this game

it'll get there

[bronze dagger]

I got a dumb question for you 2, my friend keeps on saying that Reforger will "Evolve" into Arma 4, being it's test bed. is there any weight to this, as in Reforger will name change to 4 for release or will it gather dust and be replaced by 4?

[foggy ridge]

definitely not name change

[bronze dagger]

It's potential is sublime for a base game arma

[foggy ridge]

see https://reforger.armaplatform.com/faq for arma 4 connection

[bronze dagger]

I figured as much, but hes insistent that something akin to that will happen, it's amusing, but i live under a rock at most times so. .. . lmfao

[foggy ridge]

well future plans can change

[stray blade]

Yeah these major updates sure do better than a wasteland of minor updates that may or may not fix anything. Cause ppl will give it a try after update, but if update is every week they will stop giving it a try after a while. So if update brings more stability and content it sure is better.

[foggy ridge]

but I'll stick around because this is the most fun I've had with an arma title since the OG

and so easy to mod

[bronze dagger]

I'd easily transition to reforger, if their zeus/mission maker had more content, and we had heavier armament mods, closest so far is a very barebones Sherman

[foggy ridge]

yea im not getting into the whole zeus vs game master vs workbench argument ever again, nuh-uh

[bronze dagger]

Wait why

[foggy ridge]

no

[bronze dagger]

Gotcha that bad, 😄 . . . Is reforger's Game master actually called workbench? never noticed

[foggy ridge]

no, game master is a game mode, workbench is an editor

[bronze dagger]

Huh... Guess i'm just a smooth brain there, I try to dabble in Zeus/Ed3n but I think i've barely scratched the surface of the surface. Never delved into coding/scripting aspects. . . . I Digress, quick off topic question, know of any good music to listen to, to uplift/inspire oneself while mission making?

[stray blade]

500 miles 10h remix

[random cape]

Right now one of Reforger's issues that may or may not ever be resolved is the lack of an in-game mission Editor; currently it can only be done with the Workbench's World Editor, which doubles as the terrain builder

[stray blade]

Eh if gm had a way of saving/loading i can live without the editor (on server). I am fully aware that its not a4, and that it will have limitations. But seeing how ppl build a huge ao only to loose it half way thru the op, i have slight disdain towards making any op on reforger.

[dense tiger]

If I buy a server, how easy is it to add mods?

[stray blade]

Depends on you. But its just the case of adding couple of strings to the config.

[dense tiger]

Ah so can't do it on xbox?

[stray blade]

Server cant be hosted on xbox. But if you rent a server, depending what you rent, you will most likely do it thru some web interface by server provider.

[dense tiger]

Thanks, just don't want to pay then be stuck without mods for me and my unit

[stray blade]

You can defo add mods, but xboxers complain that there might be an issue downloading them.

[dense tiger]

I can't find anything about how you add one to an xbox server 😅

[stray blade]

There isnt a diffrence between xbox and pc server. Check pins in #reforger_servers

[dense tiger]

Yeah so looks like you'd have to add them on the code thing, no idea how I would on my xbox

[stray blade]

Idk you could do it off your phone. Or maybe server provider will give you some selection box or something.

Or you can ask a friend with a pc to help it set up for you.

[foggy ridge]

I mean if you have a smartphone with desktop mode like a samsung galaxy s then you can just hook it up to the tv and use desktop mode to set it all up

with keyboard and mouse and all

[twin timber]

This is literally how the deployment of hotfixes is done. That's why they're called Hot fixes

[earnest echo]

There's no hotfix since 2nd of August, all where update started from 2 weeks updates to a "We don't know when" updates

[lyric obsidian]

No, developers are bundling fixes related to common problems.

Not pushing them one by one.

[twin timber]

Certainly, but then I would not call that a hotfix. I'd say a hotfix is an update that fixes a critical issue that needs to be resolved as soon as possible. It's arguable whether any of the current issues with Reforger fit that criterium

[zealous mortar]

So when reviving is added will you be able to drag wounded/dead teammates to a different position?

[foggy ridge]

I didn't see dragging in the roadmap so I'm assuming it's just revive

[sand verge]

no you gonna have to pay 60 for that feature in 2 years

[uneven rose]

Hey so with the current progress is there a time frame we can expect 0.9.7 within?(hopefully before New Years) and with that when we will see the start of the air assault mile stone

[lusty vector]

When will we see Arma Reforger on PlayStation 5?

[languid lodge]

@iron sentinel #looking_for_unit or #communities_arma3 / #communities_xbox

[cerulean token]

Afaik Sony doesn't allow early access titles on their console, so I suppose after Reforger is out of EA

[lusty vector]

Any tracked vehicles?

[stray blade]

No, and none were promised

[random cape]

BI: Can't break promises that we didn't make!
Some players: Is it really unreasonable of us to expect the content level of previous titles?
BI's own CEO almost a decade ago: The library of content present in Arma 2 is simply overwhelming, and in hindsight might not be commercially justifiable for a single game.

[stray blade]

Its better to deliever something that wasnt promised, than dont deliever something that was.

[random cape]

Yup... almost three months ago I backed an IGG for a handheld whose manufacturer promised Intel® Wi-Fi 6 AX200, only for some people to get Intel® Wi-Fi 6E AX210 instead... emphasis on only some though

[stray blade]

Or star citizen :/

[random cape]

Likewise, the preview/review unit that they gave to Linus Tech Tips actually had a higher battery nominal capacity in watt-hours than advertised... only for those in 'alpha buyer'/review units to have issues, thus the manufacturer reverting the IGG backers' units to the advertised capacity

[random cape]

And DayZ had this reputation for years until the perfect storm of SQF's replacement (after the rendering system's replacement) and modding support

[stray blade]

I lost my love for that game when engine change occured and every update was "better drinking animations"...

[random cape]

That's surely how some people received this game's weekly and then biweekly updates, no?

[stray blade]

Im sure some do. But diffrence for me was years in EA when it happend as opposed to months

[fathom osprey]

DayZ still has that reputation tbh... even items and features that were previously in the game for years seem unlikely to ever return. Not sure how the development was such a mess...

[high rune]

It was a mess because "DayZ development" was most likely a thinly-veiled codeword for "Enfusion development." BI can't have just been sitting around twiddling their thumbs all that time, so I think all that time was spent developing new infrastructure

It seems to me that DayZ was sort of a guinea pig, a convenient second-class title for BI to sacrifice for the development of Enfusion

Seems it wasn't enough since now we've got Reforger which is basically the second iteration of the same idea, especially with the clear push for console accessibility and raking in a broader audience

I'm not necessarily complaining, building a new engine these days is a ridiculous undertaking so it doesn't surprise me that steps like this are required to pull it off. We'll see when Arma 4 comes out whether or not it was worth it.

[winter zephyr]

The thing is, no other engine has the combination of specific features and maturity that RV has in Arma 3. To get all the features in a new engine that people expect in a mainline Arma game, while also being a step forward and being more modern is a huge undertaking.

With DayZ, they were able to build out things like graphics, the character controller, and scripting (iirc, and just as a few examples). With Reforger, the focus is more on the military sandbox features of Arma.

Remember that A3 had a similar path of releasing early, having fewer features, content, and mods, while having more bugs. I'd say that worked out pretty well, when looking at it today.

[high rune]

The main difference is that A3 still had all the core facets of an Arma game; the terrain, the convenient scenario editor, the intelligent AI, the AI commanding/squad leading stuff, and a fairly diverse set of equipment and vehicles, even if there weren't that many of them

The fact that Reforger lacks the traditional scenario editor and AI stuff makes it feel like a very different game, so it's no surprise that the Arma userbase isn't that into it, especially with the issues it has

Being able to plop down a bunch of AI and whip up a singleplayer mission and direct the AI through some assault is where a lot of people racked up their thousands of hours

Fair enough if BI is aiming to try something different to capture some of the console market but it's not surprising that nobody is playing Reforger since it lacks that core tinkering loop that all the other games have had

The Enfusion editor is obviously absurdly powerful but it doesn't seem to lend itself to rapid iteration, and the lack of commanding AI (even dumb AI) means there's nothing to do

[opaque owl]

Reforger is kind of just a paid A4 alpha imo

[high rune]

It clearly has a pretty different focus though so I'm not sure about that. It's more like Arma 4 Argo

[feral grove]

i absolutely love the pvp experience on reforger the game mode and flow of it was nearly non existent throughout all arma titles.

Part of that likely because of things like KOTH taking the spotlight or other community content. Its just a really nice change.

[sand verge]

nope I dont play with mods in the current state of reforger especially broken ones

[flint nest]

Hey when ever I try to join a Server I run into a problem were I cant join . It says something about the game couldn't run with the selected mods and then shows an entire list of mods that belong to the server. Anyone able to help.

[foggy ridge]

delete the mods and try joining again maybe

but it's hard to know without seeing the log, and on xbox it's not possible to get it (but if you're on pc you can check what the reason is inside the console.log file)

[flint nest]

Well heres the list of what i have tried and failed:

Redownloaded mods

Redownloaded game

[foggy ridge]

is it just one server?

[minor spear]

Are trenches planned for Reforger/Enfusion? I am increasingly convinced that they are the key to making artillery viable (i.e. not OP to the point of being hard to use as a mission maker), at least in PvE. AI will need to be able to deal with them, of course.

[haughty robin]

In general entrenchment is a really important part of combat - it feels like a necessity to me

[dense tiger]

How do I enable Conflict of Nations scenario? I have the mod coded in but can't enable the mode.

[foggy ridge]

You will need to """"code"""" the scenario you want to run

[dense tiger]

How do I do that? @foggy ridge

I've coded in the mod

[foggy ridge]

There is a configuration example on the wiki, it explains where the scenario goes

[dense tiger]

I put the mod Id in the scenario ID ?

[foggy ridge]

You need to read the server config wiki, see pins in #reforger_servers

[dense tiger]

Yeah I'm struggling to understand it

[stray blade]

ScenarioId and modId are two diffrent things, there can only be one scenarioId, which tells server which mission/scenario to load, and you can have multiple modIds within mods aray, this tell server which mod(s)to load.

[dense tiger]

I only have the mod ID not sure the scenario ID is

[shut cosmos]

vvvvv This downloads the mod to your server vvvv

        "mods": [
            {
                "modId": "50X0B69A19C270B9",
                "name": "YourFunMod"
            }
                ]

vvvvv This tells it what scenario or 'mission' it is going to run, some mods have their own scenarios that need to be found but you can generally use the default campaign okay vvvvv
        "scenarioId": "{DD380D816FAC984B}Missions/23_CampaignFun.conf",

[dense tiger]

Yeah I have the mod loaded, just stuck with implementing

[shut cosmos]

Please remember some mods are broken or never worked in the first place.

[dense tiger]

I'm using conflict of nations

[shut cosmos]

They use their own scenario

[stray blade]

If you are on pc, finding scenario id is easy,or you can use -listScenarios startup param to dump all scenario ids that are avalible

[shut cosmos]

There are a couple of ways to find it, would be ez if you on pc

[dense tiger]

I'm xbox

So I just need this scenario ID by the sounds of it

[shut cosmos]

Okay I'm going to be a bro and download it and grab the scenarioId just give me a minute

[dense tiger]

Bro!

Appreciate that because a server that runs it banned me for asking 🤣

[shut cosmos]

"{91C96EA4E93AC058}Missions/ConflictOfNations.conf"

[dense tiger]

BRO

[shut cosmos]

Thats rude of them

[dense tiger]

It was

You're a legend mate, imma give it a go now

[topaz whale]

There are already trenches in the game in specific locations on Everon.

[zenith mortar]

Hey guys, out of curiosity, is there anyone in reforger currently doing modern "OPs"? I get it's limited, but I might as well ask xd

[slow pagoda]

I'd wager reforger is still a bit far away from such missions

Mod content is limited and mission making is very different

[foggy ridge]

there's about 57395512 servers running modern gear mods rn

[stray blade]

where the hell did you find that specific number?

[foggy ridge]

I may have exaggerated a little

[minor spear]

@topaz whale that's definitely a good start, does that mean Game Master can use them dynamically too? I'd hope that a future mission editor would allow dynamic placement.

[topaz whale]

I doubt you'll be able to dig holes to put them in

[minor spear]

That will be very unfortunate :/

[topaz whale]

One of the problems I see with this is that there are giant rock models hidden underground all over the place on Everon which means that even if you could remove the terrain skin there is a model that will get in your way too

[minor spear]

yeah but that's something for a mission maker to deal with

and/or for BI to figure out how to deal with -- we're in the alpha of an alpha for a reason

but the benefits to having trenches w.r.t. mission/game design are substantial imo, so well worth it

there's already terrain deformation in Arma 3 after all, having a more easily usable version of that would be nice. And this is probably the right time to start considering it for Reforger/A4

[foggy ridge]

no runtime terrain editing right now

there is a cute trick though, there's a material type that "copies" terrain underneath, so you can have "terrain grass" over your trench model and it may blend with terrain very well

[vivid tundra]

When we getting 64 slot servers for official?

[trim sky]

can we get more sitting animations?

[sand verge]

when consoles get photo editors, audio editors and 3d modeling software maybe then it will

[dense tiger]

Any idea why 20 odd people on my server are getting "script mismatch" error ?

[tepid torrent]

any updates/devlogs planned, games been running dry for a bit now would be nice if there was some more interesting info being released

[stray blade]

Mod version wrong. Either update mods on server or clients.

[dense tiger]

I leave the version on my mods blank so they update, what's the client thing you mention?

[foggy ridge]

what's the full error message? you can try saving your config file, reinstalling server

[stray blade]

I mention they could try manualy updating mods. Ask for server, manualy delete them and let them dl again

[dense tiger]

Yeah deleting and installing worked for everyone but was just wondering if it's something I'd done Code wise

[stray blade]

No. Sometimes it just does silly buggers.

[dense tiger]

Haha yeah I'm 1 week into server ownership and I'm learning the pain and gains 🤣

[signal spruce]

Patience.

[past kayak]

What was the Update called in which we'll finally be given some squad AI command? Thats the whole game right there for me

[signal spruce]

Ground Support: https://reforger.armaplatform.com/news/roadmap

[random cape]

On initial impression the commands are minimal, basically 'AAA arcade-y shooter' level (unlike players, GMs can order their AI entities to ignore enemies on the way to their destination, to walk with their weapon lowered, or to defend a position without moving away, and a mission maker has almost triple the number of waypoints that a GM has)... on the other hand AI units can join/unjoin the group dynamically seems to me to be a first-in-the-franchise thing 🤔

[past kayak]

That doesnt sound like a bad thing to me. Personally i always felt that the AI was just WAY too concerned with trying keep in formation with their squads leading them to use strange pathfinding or guarding ridiculous angles regardless of the direction the primary or only known threat was. Sounds like they broke it all down to raw base AI and will rebuild something new from there

[verbal pebble]

Haven't played Reforger since the first month of its release; how are the connection issues now? Can I play for more than 5 minutes without getting disconnected?

[stray blade]

Best way to know, is to try it.

[dull rover]

The game is great, those bugs that were after the release have already been fixed, but there are very few players on the servers.

[verbal pebble]

Ah, thanks. Sounds like the Post Scriptum situation then. Good game, too few players to enjoy a multiplayer milsim experience.

[dull rover]

But even 15 players are enough to have a good fight, I don’t know what will happen in the cities when artillery and helicopters are brought in)

[verbal pebble]

Yeah, I'll give it a try. Most games have been pretty dry for me recently so anything that seems remotely interesting will be enjoyable for me.

[quaint copper]

Try the dark souls games, Foxhole, War of Rights, Gunner, HEAT PC, Stalker Anomaly, and Ready or Not

Those are some of my current favorite games and you might like some of them

[verbal pebble]

I have 4300 hours in Foxhole and so here I am. Tried WoR too. Pretty fun but I couldn't stick with it for very long. I'll look up some of the other games though, thanks.

[slow pagoda]

MP milsim experience does not really happen that much in public games anyway. Public games tend to be more casual gaming than organized gameplay (at least that's how I think of what milsim is)

[foggy ridge]

shoot gun on spawn, get banned

[slow pagoda]

Well that should happen pretty much always shouldn't it 😝

[eternal heart]

Should

[dry furnace]

it wont let me join sever just cones up battleeye group 3

[slow pagoda]

Is your game up to date?

[lyric obsidian]

Where that picture has been taken ?
https://reforger.armaplatform.com/_next/static/media/squad_in_operation.3fd56f0e.jpg

[stray blade]

Airfield, just south across runway from ATC, there is a camo building, on the corner where two runways intersect

[lyric obsidian]

Oh, sneaky one.

[dense tiger]

Do I need to update my server in any way? It keeps restarting itself as if something is wrong.

[stray blade]

Disable all mods, update server by steamcmd or via your host provider. Restart in vanilla, confirm it works. Start adding mods, some may be outdated and will cause server to not boot

[dense tiger]

Ah yeah that'll be why, all my mods are still active. Thanks again Marko!

[dense tiger]

When you say update would that mean reinstall on Nitrado?

[stray blade]

Ive never used nitrado, so i cant say. Cant hurt i guess

[dense tiger]

My server is just in a restart Loop 😅

[fickle musk]

@foggy ridge Hey wondering will your M4A1 Block 2 mod be updated today?

[foggy ridge]

block mod is fine, scope mod is not, you'll need to wait for RiverX to patch it

[fickle musk]

Got it

[dense tiger]

Oh you're that bacon!

[foggy ridge]

the bacon

[dense tiger]

Haha hey

[foggy ridge]

[dense tiger]

Is there a place I can see what mods update and stuff?

[foggy ridge]

not really, there is no "mod update log"

[dense tiger]

Ah damn I guess just try add them in everyday?

[foggy ridge]

they will display an update icon thingamajig when there is an update available for them in the workshop menus

[dense tiger]

Ahhhh OK cool thanks!, anyone know how to run the new mode? Isn't an option on nitrado rn

[stray blade]

Thru config if you have an option to do so. Enter scenario id. You can find them in #reforger_servers

[dense tiger]

Yeah I don't see the new mode on there

[stray blade]

#reforger_servers message

The combat ops one.

[half locust]

@fickle musk - don't

[fickle musk]

?

[half locust]

1. this is for question in relation to the game, not mods
2. do not ever ask mod authors about - when update - no matter the reasons

[dense tiger]

Criminal

[fickle musk]

Lol ight

[dense tiger]

Thanks man

[fickle musk]

Where do I got to ask then? lol

[half locust]

you don't, not on this server anyways.

[fickle musk]

👍

[magic pebble]

dm them, they are mostly cool and will respond.

[fickle musk]

Got it

[zealous mortar]

Are you able to put the colt scope on the grenadier M16A2? I'm not home so I won't able to test

[magic pebble]

yes you can

[stray blade]

You can but it will block gl leaf sight

[magic pebble]

Also, you can only place it on the gun if the gun is on the ground. You can't place it on it if the gun is your inventory or on your hand or while you inspect it.

[regal moss]

am i suppose to see the helmet at the top of my screen?

[magic pebble]

No. Respawn to fix it, if that doesn't work, restart the game

[stray blade]

Middle mouse on it while in inventory

[feral mason]

Who knows where to get morfin, there is a description in the field manual for medical items, but i could not find in any of the medical boxes

Same goes for tourniquet

[wraith kindle]

Not in game yet

[gilded marsh]

Has anyone found the underground bunkers I can’t seem to find them ?

[cold oxide]

the Bunkers are above ground look in the forest at the Airfield

[gilded marsh]

Thank you

[stuck pawn]

Im trying to host a server inthe host section and it says ip address what do i put there?

[foggy ridge]

oh boy here they come

leave it on 0.0.0.0 unless you specifically want to use a specific one for a specific reason

[stuck pawn]

ok can i host a public server or is this only like local

[foggy ridge]

if your internet service provider has granted you the privilege of being open to the internet, it will work publicly, otherwise only locally

• port forwarding / upnp is a separate concern

[stray blade]

IP address: Enter your PUBLIC ip address there. You can find it by going to https://www.whatsmyip.org/
Port: set it to whatever you wish
Bind IP address: Make it blank or leave it be.
Bind Port: set to the same as above "Port"

Then port forward the whatever port you used above on your router. And you should be good to go online.
Mind you your ISP has to allow port forwarding, and router has to have an option to do it (most do)

[sand verge]

If you want to "host locally" the IPs and ports should be prefilled when you open hosting and it should be pretty much good to go for this case. It should be publicly visible if your network is set that way.

[stuck pawn]

i hosted it as it was and i cnat invite anyone or anything

[foggy ridge]

I think they have to do a direct IP join? no steam invites yet

[stuck pawn]

it says my ip is private on bind ip address do i have to make it public

[stray blade]

as ive said Bind IP address: Make it blank or leave it be.

[stray blade]

join via steam works, you cant invite tho

[foggy ridge]

o ok

[stuck pawn]

ok if i leave bind ip address blank it makes me enter a value

[stray blade]

leave it be then or you can try 0.0.0.0

[sand verge]

Names might be misused probably. Ip (the first one, called just "IP") is by default 0.0.0.0 and bind ip is prefilled with your ip. You can pretty much left it default and ignore the warning. You can send your friend what in bind ip and bind port and they can try to use direct join.

[coral elbow]

Has anyone figured out how to fix the crashing in the game?

[random cape]

No... the last that I saw from devs on this was a few weeks ago... developer Nervevarine:Fixes to both happen all the time. As for the replication error - it would be amazing to have one magical "fixed error X". Unfortunately, it doesn't work that way. These issues can be caused by virtually any sort of network desync, when the network can't keep up and so on. Because of the nature of these things, fixes for most of them are usually disguised as something else, say "fixed picking apples from the ground" (sorry for the lack of a better example). If the apple is picked up only by the player and left on the ground on the server this is a desync and a potential disconnect candidate. Of course, every time there's a fix/tweak done to our replication layer itself we say so in the release notes. In other words, the more the game code gets polished over time the better it gets.#reforger_experimental message
Developer klamacz:```Usually we check logs of kicked client and logs of the server. In most of your cases that cannot be provided. Often context matters, where other people been on the map, what they were doing. During public, big matches such data is hard to gather.
So, the best help is the one which is concrete repro-steps to achieve the kick or visible desync. This way, we only have to figure out how to fix it, not when it happens.

All I said is basically internal QA process. From player perspective, every hint may be a good one. Feedback tracker is good place to aggregate those hints.```#reforger_experimental message
Today's devblog mentions a bunch of fixes (as per the changelog) but does not claim that they've fixed everything.

[bleak arch]

I’m confused..I’m the patch notes it says “Added: Additional variants of M151A2, M998, M1025 added to the US vehicle configs.” I don’t see any new variants in the game can someone explain?

[random cape]

In the configs... might be something that someone more experienced with Workbench could open up and find more about, while not yet being available to GMs or in Conflict yet?

[bleak arch]

Ah, thank for responding. I’m wondering what they are, I’m dying to know right about now🤔

[agile lava]

did anybody find that bunker they teased?

[supple wigeon]

Yeah

[agile lava]

and where ^^

[supple wigeon]

Bottom right of 011-025

[agile lava]

thx

[dull rover]

I'm assuming a mini patch every two weeks?

[haughty maple]

how do i get combat ops Arland ID ?
anybody got any ideas ?

[thorn furnace]

{DAA03C6E6099D50F}Missions/24_CombatOps.conf You can find from the .conf file in workbench.

[uneven rose]

Anyone know how to put your rifle on you back with the new UI

[cerulean token]

Drag it onto your binoculars slot. Thats how I always do it

Where do you deliver the intel to on the Combat Ops on Arland ?

We are clueless

We picked it up from the ATC tower, now it still shows the blue gear icon at the ATC Tower

[sand verge]

Afaiko that might be a bug. You are supposed to exfill with the intel. It's not nessesary to do so tho.

Only 2/3 objectives are must-do.

Will ask tomorrow at work, guy who makes it is close by. Do hit ne up with a @ if I forget. I give you a permission 😄 not that I want to I just have allready like 3 things I need to do from the feedback here.

[cerulean token]

Ah we tried to exfil, but that didn't work either. 😅

[sand verge]

QwQ

[cerulean token]

Thought we had to deliver intel first

[stray blade]

The marker remains, but should say deliever intel, go to move marker.

[sand verge]

Nah, but the whole group needs to be at the exfil point to exfil.

[cerulean token]

Ahh thats it

[uneven rose]

Also did we get the ambulances yet?

[celest notch]

no.. theres a medic bag though..

[cerulean token]

I figured only a percentage of the group has to go to exfil. This way there cant be 1 random troll refusing to go

And exfil! Woo!

Man that was neat. First story-ish thing in Reforger. Felt good.

[coral elbow]

has anyone found a fix to the crashing? I'm trying to get a good match in, but keep crashing. Pretty frustrating.

[green abyss]

hello, for the new combat ops game-mode, is there any way to lower the AI difficulty like you could in arma 3?
i love these scenarios, but i would like to tweak the AI a bit to give me a better chance at lasting past 2 firefights lol

[pale cedar]

Anyone know why it keeps asking me to delete apps from my xbox when trying to re download mods?

[finite gulch]

How to heal ad9minal words

Wounds an such

[quaint copper]

Pull out a bandage and hold R

Or drag and drop from the inventory Tarkov style

[finite gulch]

Xbox?

And chest wounds

[sand verge]

they added advanced medical?

[cerulean token]

You can now be hurt in different places

[sharp estuary]

Is there any more plans for the medical aspect? I was expecting a bit more

[cerulean token]

There's probably more to come

[crimson fractal]

Yes there are more items that didn't make the update for the medical system

[signal spruce]

There is definitely a lot more to come.

[digital cargo]

can we get hurt in the heart when opposite player are killing it with their insult on direct chat?

[earnest echo]

When? No more of medical system on the roadmap and looks like ground support is "finish"

[signal spruce]

When?
In the future.

looks like ground support is "finish"
Mm, nope. Not finished. In fact, here is a quote straight from the update:
Ground Support, originally intended to be a single massive update, has been redefined as a series of smaller ones released over the upcoming months. Our goals regarding the content and features of Arma Reforger remain unchanged. Our focus instead has shifted to bringing you smaller updates containing fixes, stable features, and a variety of improvements more frequently, with a priority on quality and stability. You may look forward to a steady flow of enhancements and occasional presents in the form of new toys or gameplay features.

No more of medical system on the roadmap
And just because something isn't on the Roadmap doesn't mean it won't be expanded on, improved, updated, or changed. Think of it more as "being introduced" to the feature in that time frame.

[earnest echo]

Yeah, cause of that "finish", but only curious about how is the state of the medical system, found all the animations on workbench and look really interesting

[signal spruce]

I think it will be cool, but for now:

[earnest echo]

And something more, is planned something about carrying or "prepare" HMG? Not sure if that is part of weapon deploy or something i miss

[quaint copper]

No plans at this time to add carry able HMGs to the game, although I know they'll probably add .50 bunkers to Conflict later down the line when they add the NSV.

There will be support for that kind of thing with Mortars though

[stray blade]

I cant wait for mortars, and hope they will be (2) man portable, or at least transportable. Those plumber pipes are one of my favourite things.

[quaint copper]

3 man portable
If we're to go off the roadmap it'll require three people to carry it - that's only if they go on foot though
Load that shit and a shit ton of shells into a Jeep and you're good, man

[stray blade]

What would the 3rd man carry? Ammo maybe? Like most of mortars dissasemble into baseplate and pipe with deadly intentions.

[quaint copper]

Ask Bohemia on that one bud, that would be my assumption is ammo but who knows at this point

[stray blade]

True... also i wonder if you will have to attach charge rings to shells or if it will be something like arma3, which was basically switching firemodes.

[quaint copper]

Knowing Reforger it's a mix of both
Press F, an animation plays to add them, but it's the same functionality as in A3

That's the likeliest scenario for that that I can think of

[patent nacelle]

Being able to carry boxes would be nice to (Carry with the hands not in storage). 🙂

[quaint copper]

You can carry boxes, you just need a backpack

[patent nacelle]

yep i have added the "Carry on hand" to make it more clear what i mean hehehe

[stray blade]

I wonder who would still do logi in conflict if you had to manually load 20 boxes and then unload them.

[patent nacelle]

Not for conflict, im thinking more on MilSim. And this same framework maybe could be useful to carry 1 box with 2 diferent players or even stretches.

[random cape]

At the cost of having to have both weapons shouldered until the box is dropped

[quaint copper]

That sounds better
Instead of carrying box for box you can carry an entire crate of supplies or ammo, ACE style, with a buddy

[random cape]

That's something that tracks with DayZ's context-sensitive 'do stuff by putting things in your hands' (e.g. carry, combine, split, wield)

[patent nacelle]

I will open suggestion on feedback tracker this afternoon. If they havent think about it and we dont tell them its quite unlikely to get done.

[earnest echo]

This can be the best aplication to the system, dayz box and objects carrying its perfect to Arma

[random cape]

And BI having brought that to PS4/XB1 means that the principle is known to some console players... not sure how much people would want it for Arma 4 though since it also controls stuff like 'hold to raise weapon, press something else to fire, and something else for ADS'... but also melee (have to put your fists up before you can punch, no cold cocking someone)

This being opposed to Arma where lowering the weapon has been an active action/toggle, not the default state as with DayZ

[dense tiger]

Any idea why my servers players keep getting "Script mismatch" errors?

[stuck pawn]

i hosted a settion for my friends to join and it says they need a join code how do i find that

[quaint copper]

Check the P menu, press Esc and look there, check all that stuff

[signal spruce]

This is already something that we have in mind.

[quaint copper]

How transferrable is the code from DayZ to Reforger? I was told by people that it shares a similar engine, but that felt like an odd statement and didn't seem accurate

[signal spruce]

I’m not a dev, but I’d say not as easy as people think. While their are components of Enfusion in DayZ, true, it is based on a hybrid of RV and Enfusion. While Reforger runs on a branch and build far different than the aforementioned. I suppose it depends on exactly what things you might transfer. Models? Probably a little easier with some work than straight code.

[quaint copper]

I meant as in
Directly transferring "Grab item, Hold Item, Put Item in trunk of car" rather than models

[patent nacelle]

Ok then i wont open de ticket. Thx

[signal spruce]

Thanks for offering. Thought I’d save you some time. 😉

[tame heart]

Does the drawing feature appear only for you?

[quiet widget]

Is LAN a thing/supported?

[tidal urchin]

You can self host servers and it's definitely possible to connect using local IPs

@quiet widget

[fallow venture]

What is the scenarioID for Arland??????????????

[cerulean token]

Wait so that means carrying crates of weapons, ammunition and supplies around by hand, loading them into trucks and them distributing them ? A logistics sort of thing like we already have with the supply trucks ?

[foggy ridge]

oh thank god it was really jank modding this in without animations for it

[reef fiber]

We have implemented a hand storage already with animations to carry e.g. a log of wood on your shoulder. Given an animation for a crate we could also have a two hand carry in front thing going. Not really that hard to do, and it would be even easier for BI to do with clean animations made by them in house 🙂

[reef fiber]

Not transferable in the slightest. DayZ and AR scripts share the same syntax but their approaches is entirely different, because AR uses a component system, DayZ does not. Anything that interfaces with existing game aspects will need to be re-done. Only something scripted entirely independently like a custom data struct wrapper or some scripted algorithm can be brought over.

[quaint copper]

Thanks foe clarifying that for me

[gusty prairie]

DayZ was made on a bastard half Enfusion and half RV if I recall, so it's very selective on what you can just port over.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong?

[visual harbor]

Not shared over the network so far.

[tame fjord]

what's the action name for switch to grenade launcher? it somehow doesn't ever save that keybind anywhere and it gets reset after restart

[cerulean token]

Hold V on PC

[tame fjord]

I mean in the config 😛 because I want to change it to hold F

[chilly briar]

Is combat ops Everon planned?

[flint dragon]

When will the next Comrad come out??

[rapid delta]

does the server has persistent data? Such as, I played for like 30mins to level up, if I log out and back in again, will I still have the level?

also can you actually heal yourself with bandages after the update? How to completely heal the damaged parts?

[magic pebble]

Ranks reset with every new match because they are used to spawn vehicles. It's a feature.
You can head with bandages but if you got hit twice in two different spots, you will have to bleeds and will need two bandages.
You completely heal back to full health with time. It slowly regenerate.

[silk sedge]

Does sp save yet

[flint dragon]

Where do we get the new ID to set the new map as a scenario?????

[stray blade]

This question is answered in each channel about 5 times.

[stray blade]

Game master does, unsure bout conflict.

[quaint copper]

SP has saved for awhile
When you hit Escape it'll say Save and Quit to Menu

[silk sedge]

Thanks

[eager bluff]

hi I was temporarily banned for teamkill by mistake can you tell me for how long ?

in theory it is the automatic ban

[quaint copper]

Wait
Did they bring back auto team kill ban?

[eager bluff]

I think yes

[stray blade]

30 minutes or until server restarts.

[eager bluff]

ok thx

pin? in #reforger_servers

[stray blade]

i can edit my pinned message

[foggy ridge]

please

[stray blade]

thar

[sharp estuary]

Why can’t I install or update some mods

[stray blade]

delete them first

[deft perch]

Why do I keep getting a Corrupted Files Error even after uninstalling and reinstalling and even verifying game files for PC?

[stray blade]

try deleting your profile folder, Documents\My Games\Arma Reforger\profile

[deft perch]

Ok I will try

[coral elbow]

Is there a place we can report racist players?

[thin moat]

Anyone know Arlands server ID?

[stray blade]

check server browser mate

[thin moat]

I’m trying to get it for my server so I can have a Gamemaster Arland do I just take the numbers from a sever?

[stray blade]

Sorry? You wanna start your own server or just join one?

[quaint copper]

#reforger_servers

Download the Reforger Workshop off of Steam. Game Master Arlands server ID will be in there somewhere

[stray blade]

They are also in pins of said channel

[thin moat]

Thx guys appreciate the help and I’m trying to start my own server

[stray blade]

Ah, good luck. If you have server related questions, ask in there.

[sand verge]

Can we expect NVG?

[kindred talon]

That’s not until way later on next year bro like late summer-Early winter stuff if we are lucky

[sand verge]

Idk man could be sooner

possible only the apcs will get night vision

[weak stump]

hey, Im pretty new to steam. Just wondering, I saw smth about fixing stutter in reforger by going to the exectubale than doung some stuff with properites. Any help on finding the reofrger executable?

-_-

[foggy ridge]

what's the fix?

[stray blade]

Right click reforger on steam -> Properies... -> Browse local files

[weak stump]

"If you have stutter, goto the executable file and right click and choose properties. Then in the compatibility tab check the box for Disable Full Screen Optimizations. Game on!"

[weak stump]

And it will be oin local files?

[stray blade]

Ye

[weak stump]

ight bruh thanks

Any tips on what it will be called? Theres alot of files

or like which foler?

[quaint copper]

Reforger.exe

[weak stump]

ArmaReforger_BE?

[quaint copper]

That one too, thats the one that force loads BattlEye

Either that one or ArmaReforger somewhere in that same folder are the executables the game runs when you hit Play on steam
manually double click them, instead of launching the game through steam

[weak stump]

Alr, I hit the box for both

So after I hit the box, open it thru files instead of steam?
the game

[quaint copper]

Try either one, see if it works

[rapid delta]

anyone's having the issue of not downloading mod on xbox?

[ivory tangle]

When i boot up arma reforger i cant see any servers not offical or community

[rapid delta]

also the mod can be downloaded sometimes but suddenly fail at a certain percentage

[ivory tangle]

When i boot up arma reforger i cant see any servers not offical or community????

[frigid saddle]

Will reforger get a star wars mod

[sleek wharf]

Check status of connection in main menu, there is a button bottom right.
All three should be green, if they're not, you don't connect to backend services and it would be some networking issue

[stray blade]

He was in experimental

[sleek wharf]

Ah. Ok

[signal garnet]

Do you guys know anyone who could tutor me in the game?

real quick

[crimson fractal]

Like on how to play?

[stray blade]

Like a tutorial?.... oh wait!

[signal garnet]

Well beyond that

[crimson fractal]

Everything beyond the tutorial is extremely basic and easy to pick up just by playing a couple of rounds

[signal garnet]

Alright then

[crimson fractal]

If you get really stuck, just ask someone in the lobby

[vivid tundra]

Where do I find FIA supply caches ?

[crimson fractal]

Green dot on map

Thanks

Do I need truck?

[stray blade]

yep

[crimson fractal]

Unless you just want to look at them, I'd definitely recommend bringing a supply truck

[vivid tundra]

👍

[sand verge]

How do I fix failed to start with selected mods

[stray blade]

sometimes it just works by trying again. Or could be a mod issue. Or it could be something else, check console.log in your profile folder if you are on pc

[sand verge]

Console log where's that?

[stray blade]

Documents\My games\Arma Reforger\profile\console.log

[cerulean token]

How do you inspect your radio ? I saw someone holding it in their hand

Read about it in the patchnotes too

[stray blade]

Think thats a mod.

[cerulean token]

It was official

[stray blade]

Oh, try putting it in hotbar and see if you can equip it. Also i think inspection is possible in inventory

[cerulean token]

Yep hotbar does it, thanks

[south temple]

it should give you an error as to which mod isn't loading, then go to mod manager and disable that mod, might be needing an update.

Anyone know how to move items to certain slots on the hotbar now since the update, something changed with the update and i can no longer do it.

[raven nymph]

Hello maybe this is the right place to ask but last night one of my guys threw a bad frag and the rest of my guys were bunched up watchin it happen. Frag went boomy, everyone died, our mlb pitcher got banned, everyone had a pretty bad time. Any way to turn off this team killing ban feature on my server or are we stuck with it?

[stray blade]

I think its possible via game mode parameters, but i havent looked into it, to be fair. I can check later today. Also, it would only be possible if you own the server.

[raven nymph]

Thank you yes i do be the owner I dont even know where to find the gamemode parameters 😬 i usually do fine with the general settings but im also using nitrado. Didnt even know we could dig deeper on it 😂

[stray blade]

With enfusion workbench you can, unless you are on xbox

[raven nymph]

No im on xbox. I run my server through an Ipad 😩

[stray blade]

Ill check later, but no promises, it may not be possible.

[raven nymph]

No worries theyl just have to learn how to get good 🙃

[true vector]

is it possible to host a server on my xbox? i kinda wanna mess around with mods with my friend

[foggy ridge]

no

[crimson fractal]

From your Xbox, no, but you can rent servers from providers such as Nitrado

[mortal marlin]

Do you think there will ever be a core mode? Maybe adds a reticle for hip firing and map markers and a waypoints? I’m aware the experience is meant to be realistic and I love that about the gam but any plans to loosen the knot a bit?

[crimson fractal]

Personally I hope not, but I'm pretty sure all of those are available as mods

[vivid tundra]

Why servers keep crashing?

[crimson fractal]

Game too good for servers to handle

[stray blade]

Well i couldn't disable it (doesn't mean it isnt possible, just that i dont know how to do it)

[raven nymph]

@stray blade thank you for checking i really appreciate it.

[digital vortex]

is there any ETA for stable servers? 6+ mo in and still can't keep anyone in a server for a full match

[slow pagoda]

when all the related issues are ironed out.

[random cape]

Which has no public ETA... nor does the game's early access period, as of today.

[cerulean token]

Must be quite a difficult issue if it's hausing so much havoc over such a big period of time. What I'd do is just to make a test server, get some people on there and stress test it, then document what everyone was doing at the time of the crash. If the server log doesn't show any obvious signs

[random cape]

Based on the two experimental branch changelogs after 0.9.7/Ground Support's public release, it's basically 'anything and everything can crash the game and we can only fix them as we find them'

This appears to me to be why the changelogs' 'Fixed: Crash' bullet points are so specific

[cerulean token]

I feel it can be tracked down somehow though. Yesterday Archeix (a GM) ran a server on Official and it ran for a huge amount of time before it finally crashed. Then other times the server just dies not long after it's up. There's clearly some specific things that you can avoid doing to make it last longer

[random cape]

From almost a month ago, dev klamacz:Usually we check logs of kicked client and logs of the server. In most of your cases that cannot be provided. Often context matters, where other people been on the map, what they were doing. During public, big matches such data is hard to gather. So, the best help is the one which is concrete repro-steps to achieve the kick or visible desync. This way, we only have to figure out how to fix it, not when it happens.#reforger_experimental message

A few days before that, BI dev Nervevarine:Fixes to both happen all the time. As for the replication error - it would be amazing to have one magical "fixed error X". Unfortunately, it doesn't work that way. These issues can be caused by virtually any sort of network desync, when the network can't keep up and so on. Because of the nature of these things, fixes for most of them are usually disguised as something else, say "fixed picking apples from the ground" (sorry for the lack of a better example). If the apple is picked up only by the player and left on the ground on the server this is a desync and a potential disconnect candidate. Of course, every time there's a fix/tweak done to our replication layer itself we say so in the release notes. In other words, the more the game code gets polished over time the better it gets.#reforger_experimental message

[cerulean token]

Speaking of desync, aren't vehicles clientside for now ? Couldn't that cause some issue ? I feel that matches without vehicles are more stable. But again this would be perfect to test in a non-public closed server with testers who document themselves.

[random cape]

Sounds like it, considering that you messaged about this right after kuloodporny said yesterday that it's a when on serverside vehicle sim

[cerulean token]

I did read it yesterday, that's the only way I know

Probably also why vehicles peform so well. In DayZ they're serverside and they're more janky (even with the improvements)

[random cape]

Ironic considering what kuloodporny was replying to

[cerulean token]

In DayZ you have the server correcting your position (you will slightly shift to the side and so on), in Reforger this issue does not exist due to them being clientside

I suppose

[random cape]

Which makes me wonder what the server-side sim is supposed to fix for Reforger

[cerulean token]

Well I have no idea how net traffic works really. If every client sending their position to the server is more intense than the server telling people where to be

Anyway, just wild speculations. Back to asking and answering questions. 😛

[fair anchor]

Hi iam on Arma Reforger world editor its concerning terrain manager how do i lower terrain i seem only able to raise the terrain?

[cerulean token]

#enfusion_terrain for all terrain questions. 👍

[fair anchor]

is that in this discord server

[cerulean token]

Yes, click on the blue highlighted channel and it takes you there

[fair anchor]

thank you

[digital vortex]

indeed but are they putting the required resources to fix that? I can't remember a game with MP that was that unstable for so long

[dusk echo]

hello, i have a problem that im gonna ask here first,and then I can move it to where it would be suitable by your guidance hopefully.
I use 42" 4k tv and usually I would play windowed 2560x1440 at 60 fps lock. my configuration can handle that load like melted butter ,and my eyes and neck are thankful when I play on a smaller portion of tv instead of fullscreen.
Reforger worked "normal" until 2 days ago. First problem was when I launched reforger from steam launcher,I could see the process starting in taskbar, alt tab also showed it but when i "select it" it doesnt show up on screen. no matter what I done I couldnt get it to "see" the game.
So i reinstalled the game,drivers and it hasnt helped. after i deleted user files I finaly got to "see" the game and I thought it is finaly done and working.
But sadly,ever since that happened I more or less cannot play in windowed mode.
In windowed mode everything is flickering,the screen is lagging,menus are overlapping,allround mess,you cant even see what you are doing/clicking.
curiously,once I get on server it is working good,until i press escape to go into options or tab to go into inventory. at that moment the bug comes back until I go back out of options or inventory.
if I switch to fullscreen everything works fine,but it just doesnt suit me.
if I put 4k resolution to fit my screen,my pc cant handle it at 60 fps.
if I put lower resolution it looks like crap fullscreen.
+I am relatively close to my TV when on pc,so 42" fullscreen is too big for comfortable gaming,and I got no good option to back up my seating position.
I mean,the thing that bugs me is that it was working just fine since the day I bought it many months ago,and now just poof nope,not anymore.
please anyone I would be thankfull for any kind of guidance

[stray blade]

EA Game with MP problems? I can name a few...

[sick schooner]

my game is only showing 4 empty servers. is anyone on the game atm?

[verbal pebble]

Check your filters and refresh the server list

[stray blade]

You are on experimental xD

[sick schooner]

ah... oops

thanks lol

[dull rover]

There was an experimental version.

[stray blade]

There still is

[lusty vector]

Before I get a next gen, will I see arma reforger or arma 4 ever coming to PlayStation 5? Or it’s it Xbox exclusive?

[crimson fractal]

It's planned for after the early access period, though no telling when that will be exactly

[lusty vector]

Ok, so if I buy a ps5 and stuff and like when it’s out of early access It will come to PlayStation? Like has the devs said that or was planing on that?

I just don’t want to buy a PlayStation and won’t be able to play

[crimson fractal]

They have plans to release it on ps5

[sand verge]

why not just get a pc and not worry about anything

[lusty vector]

True

[sand verge]

if you look on ebay you can find some really good deals actually a few generations old

[lusty vector]

I’ll look at that, thanks

[random cape]

What Unicornbattman said... afaik Sony isn't okay with early access games, unlike Microsoft, and as of today there's no telling when the game will leave EA

Keep an eye on their devblogs wherever Bohemia Interactive links them, or sign up for their newsletter, in case they eventually change their minds and give an estimate on when

I will note however that for now the content creation tools are PC exclusive (and require one to have Reforger on Steam at that)... currently Xbox Series X/S players can only browse and download user-generated content (mods and custom game modes/scenarios) from the in-game Workshop, or connect to servers running said content

The devs have indicated that an in-game scenario editor will be coming for Arma 4, but that's not the same as promising that it'll ever come to Arma Reforger

[graceful fulcrum]

does anybodu ever have the isssue where reforger always goes into windowed mode when you enter the main menu or start up the game?

[stray blade]

Yep, i fixed it by deleting profile folder

[graceful fulcrum]

i cant seem to find it

[stray blade]

Documents\My Games\Arma Reforger\profile

[graceful fulcrum]

thanks homie it works, i appreciate you

[stray blade]

Np, you will have to rebind any controls that you have customized.

[lucid path]

Where’s that underground post on arland

[stray blade]

airfield, camo building on corner where two runways intersect, approx south west of ATC

[river gorge]

Can we draw on the map?

[crimson fractal]

No, but you can place lines

[river gorge]

Ah ok only the red lines right?

[crimson fractal]

Yeah

[terse wagon]

Is Reforger worth buying now that it has been out a fair bit? I know it's had it's fair amount of buggs (like most games).

[stray blade]

That decision is on you.
Still has lotsa issues, crashes, bugs, lack of official content.
But overall game isnt bad.
So if you cant look past crashes and bugs (some of which are very common) then i guess wait couple of more months. Or give it a go for 2 hours and request steam refund if it doesnt suit you.

[random cape]

What Marko said along with 'if you don't mind an uncertain timeframe for when the content releases'... yesterday's Dev Report #15 admitted that the original one-year-of-early-access estimate no longer applies, since back then they underestimated the difficulty of this game's development

This is also part of why this week's 0.9.7 update was called Ground Support and came with less content and features than what was advertised in the roadmap published on August 1st, although they've since promised to release the rest thereof in the coming months

[terse wagon]

Thx, I have been contemplating buying this for a while. I love arma but was concerned of issues I've heard of by friends. But I think I will buy it and try for myself. Thx for your answers

[random cape]

Also, no promise that Reforger will ever get the series' famous in-game scenario Editor, although one has been all-but-explicitly-guaranteed for Arma 4... yet that game has no public ETA either

[gentle linden]

So I'm trying to host an ingame server to play on with me and my friends, when I create the server they try to join and it loads for a while but then it just disconnects them, any idea what could be causing this?

[stray blade]

incorrect setup.

[gentle linden]

Note: I have my personal IP as the IP address and the Bind IP Address

[stray blade]

#reforger_troubleshooting message

[gentle linden]

So it's not possible to host a server with my private IP?

[stray blade]

Continue reading from that msg down

[mossy lodge]

So does anyone know if any game mode or so is nicely playable with 1 buddy?

[quaint copper]

Combat Ops

[foggy ridge]

yes but only on windows servers, cool game mode tho

[spiral minnow]

Yo, real talk why do I still get disconnected every 5-10 minutes.. (No, literally nothing wrong with my internet, etc.) it's been like this since release 7 months ago..

[mortal marlin]

Do you guys plan on expanding the mouse and keyboard support for console? I play on series s and the controls are great now but some customization would be nice 🙂

[brittle aspen]

Hey everyone!!
I got a question
Does Arma Reforger have any persistence?
Or any save feature?
Like if I take over an enemy base and leave and come back will that base still be taken or will everything restart once I leave?

[sand verge]

When I'm installing the mod to join my milsims server it's stuck at 0 percent and won't go higher

[kind meadow]

i havent played in awhile, are there still server disconnect issues?

[cerulean token]

There is still disconnect issues, yes. But I would recommend you check out the Combat Ops on Arland. It is by far the most stable gamemode of Reforger and a different experience in my opinion.

[cerulean token]

So can we expect facial expressions at some point ? Blinking of eyes, mouth moving to voice accordingly, pained expressions when injured and so on ? Right now the characters are so emotionless.

[zealous mortar]

Will any other Major Reforger updates be releasing this year or January?

[crimson fractal]

Unlikely to happen this year

[sleek wharf]

Major no

[vivid tundra]

Did the recent update fix the constant crashing on Xbox servers?

To an extent anyway

[shut pumice]

yes but there are still some crashes that are to be fixed soon

constant crashing on Xbox servers?
well if you meant crashing of servers

[dull rover]

i need ai drive!

and no more

[dull rover]

may/apri

[zealous mortar]

Does the amount of gamemasters in a server effect the performance of the game? Usually 2 work fine but 3 or more completely break the game.

[thorn furnace]

Yo Bohemia, do you guys get PBS's server logs? If not then I think there should be a 64 player official server.

[lament sinew]

Any plans for Raytracing and DLSS?

[dull rover]

Is it worth waiting for the mod Mi-24?

[topaz whale]

What do you mean? Like, what is going to change if I say "yes" vs "no"?

[dull rover]

Well, I'm wondering if Soviet helicopters will be in mods.

[shut cosmos]

Depends on if someone like you and I decided to make some

[topaz whale]

That depends on if someone wants to make them. Never too late to learn 😉

[dull rover]

I would make such a helicopter myself, but my processor cannot withstand this engine.

[topaz whale]

🤔 then why do you care if someone makes it? You won't even be able to use it. Also, you can probably do models and textures for it with a weaker PC than the engine requires

[dull rover]

The fact of the matter is that I play on a cloud service and I am happy about that, I am waiting for suitable mods.

[topaz whale]

Fair enough. No idea if anyone is making one.

[dull rover]

There, it seems, someone said that he began to make this helicopter, but I don’t know if it’s worth expecting.

[topaz whale]

Pretty sure he said that like 4 days ago. It takes a bit longer than that to finish a helicopter... well a good one

[peak thunder]

Making a hind or hip from scratch could take many months. It's not an easy task to model vehicles that meet the new standard of quality we see in Arma vehicles. Buying one of decent quality is in the range of hundreds of dollars US. One of the reasons the Redline team passed on making them.

You could use the A2/Take on Helicopters hind, but it's kinda garbage and you are better off making one from scratch with the amount of work it would need to convert them to the Reforger format. Less so with the A2 Hip, but it's just going to become obsolete the moment BI drops their version with Air Assault.

[random cape]

What BigBen said has been an issue for Arma modding for years now

[cerulean token]

If I assign raise weapon to holding a key down, is there a way I can prevent it from spamming the safety on/off button endlessly ?

I'd like to assign my raise weapon to holding right mouse click so I can get it to how it is in DayZ, but it's pretty bugged like this. 😅

[stray blade]

Uhh isnt there option in gameplay where you select between toggle ads or hold? Or is that glitching out?

[cerulean token]

I just tried it and it does not actually work indeed

And it's also different from raising/shouldering your gun I assume

[stray blade]

Oh, yeah its just for click to ads or hold mouse 2 for ads. Diffrent thing i guess

[tame fjord]

Yeah there are issues... but it always takes the safety off anyway when you raise the weapon?

[stray blade]

Ye, unless you would then put it on safe via inspection or key

[cerulean token]

That's the issue, If I try to raise my weapon with the newly assigned hold key, it infinitely switches off/on the safety

its like bugged

[tame fjord]

Same with fire mode selection. You need to edit the new keybind in the config. I can't remember which keys have the issue, but some months ago there was a lot of those...

[cerulean token]

Thats how I did it. I switched 'click' to 'hold' in the .conf

[south hatch]

Sks?

[languid kestrel]

Does anyone know how to fix a big with mods in mod Manager I try to move to to active mods and they just stay there like I haven't downloaded them

For xbox

[wicked terrace]

im always forgoting, what key do i need to press to enter inside weapon customizatin/configuration menu for attach scope or setup bipods?
Ah its CTRL+R and called Inspection Mode

[south hatch]

Are we able to set the path of mods to another drive I've been trying to keep my c drive clutter free and doesn't seem like I can change the path in game or even out of game

[valid shale]

https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_Reforger:Startup_Parameters#addonDownloadDir try this

[south hatch]

Thank you worked like a charm

[round arrow]

hey, is it possible to install mods externally without using the workshop? the download speeds i get over the in-game workshop are terrible and it would be so much quicker for me just downloading from a browser or w/e

[stray blade]

Nope... you could download them from server FTP if you own one

[slow pagoda]

the download speed would be the same since the source and your connection is the same

[round arrow]

damn. the workshops nice but it's worthless if download speeds are this bad. it's like 1.30 - 2 hrs to download 300mb for me 😐

and it has to redownload the whole mod file if it gets updated

[slow pagoda]

perhaps some problem with your connection to the server then

[stray blade]

Its true that its slower, but its not THAT slow

[trail jacinth]

Are the developers planning to add aiming deadzone to reforger in the near future?

[round arrow]

my internets already pretty bad at like a max of 2mb/s on steam, but it's reaaally bad through the in-game workshop for some reason

[slow pagoda]

most likely the server location. Steam has a lot more spread out localized servers

[sand verge]

Does anyone know when Arma 4 Is coming out

[random cape]

No, because recently BI admitted that they no longer have a public estimate for when Arma Reforger will be out of early access (presumably a prerequisite for Arma 4 development to move forward)

[obtuse viper]

I keep seeing a flickering invincible player with no clothes or gun that other players dont see. Bug or hack?

[stray blade]

Shameless assasin

[sand verge]

Anyone know if any big mods are coming out soon?

[slow pagoda]

no, such things are not really announced either before they are read

[sand verge]

I think many mod creators keep silent on the stuff they are working on so they don't get pinged all the time with silly questions

[thorn furnace]

There is one guy, BLACKFAGMEDIA, who is specialises in BIG mods. Large terrains with many models.

[sand verge]

Thank you

[dull rover]

It does if you shout in your mic

[hearty basalt]

So bipods are in now, is there a way I can rest my weapons?

[crimson fractal]

While prone, yes

[cerulean token]

The way they work for now is that you simply extend your bipod through the inspect hotkey and then you go prone. I believe this will be expanded later on.

AkiKay is right that it will be expanded on, just a matter of time

I'm having problems downloading mods,its endlessly loading,anyone know how to fix? I'm xbox

[kindred talon]

Download from a server or restart your Xbox and go at it again and don’t try to download them with the “y” button go to the mod and click the download button there odd way to download mods but it works most of the time

[verbal pebble]

Do you have to pay to host a live, public server, or can you just one at any time?

[sand verge]

if you have the internet plan and hardware you can self host on a dedicated server

[stray blade]

Or ingame hosting if you are on pc.

[astral iris]

Why if you vote kick a person they can come back? We have a player who has been team killing and blowing up our stuff and still comes back

[foggy ridge]

because it's a kick

[astral iris]

Doesn't that defeat the purpose of kicking someone from a server, at that point they should just remove the ability to vote kick if they can just get back in the server

[stray blade]

Ban would remove someone for longer. If someone is teamkilling, my advice is, let them. They will get autobanned for 30 mins. Just dont retaliate so you dont get the ban.

[tepid torrent]

hey what is planned for vehicle mirrors in future? right now they just use a reflection probe based on where they are at, will something more advanced come in future?

[sand verge]

i would imagine so same with the periscope occludes, it will probably come out when they start to release the lav and brdm

[marsh pagoda]

Anyone have a method of running reforger in fullscreen or some hack to change display resolution when running reforger?

[foggy ridge]

like actual fullscreen instead of borderless?

[marsh pagoda]

Yeah or just change resolution.
I use https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/technologies/dsr/technology/
But I don't wanna play games at big resolution. So I normally just use 1080p in games and 1620p in desktop

borderless windowed kinda sucks because of that

[foggy ridge]

there's no fullscreen mode

I think resolution you can set with ScreenWidth and ScreenHeight config variables in profile/.save/ReforgerEngineSettings.conf

[marsh pagoda]

I'll try that later, thanks

[stray blade]

You can do same via steam launch parameters eg:
https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_Reforger:Startup_Parameters#screenWidth

[foggy ridge]

does the game support steam join/start game and join links?

[stray blade]

You can join on friend

[willow star]

What happened to Arma Reforger Tools? I wanted to download it and it says it's been unlisted from steam

[stray blade]

they are right there? I even uninstalled it and it still shows, you do own the right?

[willow star]

"English language not supported

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1874910/Arma_Reforger_Tools/

[stray blade]

OH, you dont go via steam store, Open your steam library, on top right set filter to "Tools" and you will find it in the list below

[willow star]

Seems a little strange, but okay thanks lol

[stray blade]

thats how you always access tools/dedicated servers (of any game)

[sand verge]

most tools on steam work like that

[stray blade]

since tools are usually distributed as part of the package attached to main game, and not standalone.

[astral iris]

Can we report players besides just kicking them? Same guy is blowing up our stuff

[sand verge]

lol only on official servers, but a admin has to be on to do anything really

[astral iris]

I literally had to get the Russians to help vote kick him,that's how bad it is

[crimson fractal]

So you had your team help vote kick him

[astral iris]

Yeth and Russians

[crimson fractal]

Opposite team can't influence vote kicks anymore

[sand verge]

Is anyone having the problems where you can only range your firearm up (increase range) but not decrease it? Even if I try to range down its completely going up

[tepid torrent]

check your key binds, also slow connection could be causing this as well, i cant change gears sometimes when connection is slow.

[sand verge]

key binds are set to default on my PC reinstalled reforger so many times

page up works as well since i need to use that for ready or not and other arma

[sand verge]

delete your profile

[tepid torrent]

does anyone still play capture and hold anymore?

[stray blade]

No

[winter zephyr]

Does terrain occlude radios?

[stray blade]

It seems so, but it also poops out sometimes, where you are standing like 10 meters away from the guy, with clear line of sight and he sounds like rhino giving birth to a porcupine in a bathroom, while in direct they sound normal.

[tepid torrent]

i think there is actually a real life reason for that, i THINK, if so refrogger is pumping up the realism

[stray blade]

Umm what reason? Saturation, echo? I cant really think of any tbh... but that doesnt mean there isnt one

[sand verge]

Is anyone having the problems where you can only range your firearm up (increase range) but not decrease it? Even if I try to range down its completely going up

I didnt deleted my profile folder don’t know how and my keys work fine I use page up and down everyday for ready or not and arma 3

It's being investigated

[narrow knot]

Hello. sorry for this silly question......I downloaded Sniper valley SP mission, but have no idea how to play it.

i only have like 2 hrs on reforger.

[tame night]

Hello everyone, I'm new around here and co-running our Reforger server.

I have what are probably the entire list of basic bitch pumpkin spice questions to ask. Is there an FAQ for new server owners at all?

I have the basics down fine but I'm struggling to add mods to the server and doing things like spawning in choppers and other modded vehicles.

[winter zephyr]

Do we know anything about gesturing plans? Or why pointing was changed to control+grave instead of just grave?

[stray blade]

Go to scenarios on main screen

[celest granite]

AAVP-7A1?

[lyric obsidian]

MC75 is more possiblem

[slow pagoda]

This is not a question.

[vivid tundra]

Just so everyone knows. Turns ur graphics to low if u want ur game to run smoother, it also barely makes a difference to how the game looks

[cerulean token]

I'd have to disagree on some things. Foliage smoothing, texture filtering and super resolution does make one hell of a difference. Some settings straight up eat half your fps for little to no change however, like Anti Aliasing. The difference between Off and 2x is there, but between 2x and 8x isn't much.

[magic pebble]

Texture makes a massive difference, it's a choice between a plain paper painted green and beige or proper ground texture.

[slow pagoda]

it might make no difference if hardware cant run the high graphics

[astral iris]

Are the scenario servers dead or something? I try to load into them but it just freezes at like 78% loading

Also is there a way to turn off the server hints, its annoying

[stray blade]

Yes, gameplay options

[astral iris]

Marvelous

I'm having problems with the scenario servers, the loading screen for them freezes, is there a fix for that?

[sand verge]

how are they gonna rework grenade throwing

Arma 3 ace had really good grenade throwing / mechanics. and Rs2 vietnam had a really nice simplified version.

[tepid torrent]

i notice that grenades are thrown super quickly now

[astral iris]

Was there supposed to be an update soon?

[sand verge]

does anyone know why my shots dont do any damage i mag dumped someone and it did 0 damage

[quaint copper]

Buggy game, bad netcode, sometimes you think youre hitting when youre not (realistic recoil and all that, iron sights dont always line up with the barrel of the gun), lag, you hit their gun and not them, etc etc etc, dont question it just reload and do it again

[earnest echo]

Any plan to add ingame profiles soon?

[zealous mortar]

Will Armored vests add like another slot for your character or will they just be put in the simple slot were you put your/Vest as of right now

[random cape]

Unknown at this time

[sand verge]

will probably be the same slot as the chest rig slot

[tepid torrent]

i agree bc i don't think you could fit a PASGT vest and an ALICE rig at the same time, so more ballistic protection would come at a cost of less inventory space

[floral shadow]

Why is this game so dead

[proud thistle]

Feel free to play it, then it is a little less dead

[celest granite]

broken servers has really hurt the game and alot of the gun play is too fast for long term arma players

[haughty robin]

tbh if you're playing at prime time you can join a busy/almost full server and the idea of being dead or alive is irrelevant

[quartz phoenix]

so when is the next major update coming? Q1?

[hasty isle]

Those dates don't get disclosed due to uncertainty right?

[slow pagoda]

when ready

[gusty prairie]

Gotta just chill. Can't give dates because if they're missed people lose their shit.

[quartz phoenix]

Quarter one is 3 months long, i was curious about a release window not a specific date

[magic pebble]

2023

[quartz phoenix]

Doesn't matter anyhow, for some reason VOIP doesn't work for me anymore since the big update a few weeks back lol

[odd cloak]

No way to change Audio Output, like in ArmA 3?

[slow pagoda]

You should be able to set windows default audio output to whatever suits you

[rich mirage]

Hey guys I'm trying to set up a community server but I can't figure out how to set the servers max framerate I have the command but I don't know where to implement it

[odd cloak]

Yes, I am able to do that, but that's not what I need. I need game audio separate from Windows, so that I can put it in a different track in a recording.

I know Windows has an option to change audio output for specific apps, but you have to do that EVERY TIME you restart the game. Alt + Tab every single time, then navigate through pages of settings. Tedious. I really don't see why it couldn't be included in the game to make life easier for the players.

[novel bay]

Why does it say free up space? I have 300gb free 💀

[rotund marlin]

My question is why whenever I have Workshop Arma reforger mods and go to play or go in a game master it says compile error whenever mods are in?

[amber vector]

Im sorry for my etiquette ahead of time....But im trying to join the a server with the idea group for me.....and I keep getting this..... kick cause code group=4 'DATA' script mismatch WTF IS THIS!!??

I have all the mods for the server and its not letting me join

[tepid torrent]

i found like 4 full severs yesterday and a few others with over 5, i feel like we need to redefine death

[thorn furnace]

Curious if the "Combat Ops" game-mode takes direct inspiration from Dynamic Recon Ops? I very much enjoyed the scenarios generated by that mod on Arma 3.

[rotund marlin]

My question is why whenever I have Workshop Arma reforger mods and go to play or go in a game master it says compile error whenever mods are in?

[stray blade]

Broken mod

[rotund marlin]

Clearly not because other people I've seen play use the same mods and it works fine.

@stray blade

[stray blade]

Then your mod is corrupted, delete and redownload

[rotund marlin]

All of them?

I have a lot of them. And just so you know they are the in game workshop mods

[stray blade]

Obviously. It can be one or more, ill let you figure it out yourself

[rotund marlin]

Ok daddy

[weak stump]

shi hold up, the new Ai gun the vz 58 or smth, that should do a decent amount more damage, especially at closer ranges right? 762,39 should probably do more damage in every regard then smth like a 554 or 545? Just wondering if it is worth picking up beyond the fact it looks cool.

also ballistics are prolly worse tho....

[rotund marlin]

Nothing still works

[random cape]

It should be full auto, but unfortunately 1) the folding-stock is cosmetic-only (no gameplay mechanics difference now if ever), 2) afaik you can only get them off of slain FIA members and the ammo from their checkpoints (this is subject to correction), and 3) no sights, whereas the M16A2 now supports the Colt 4x20 and the AK-74 should eventually support the 1P29 (imagine an upside-down version of the iconic L85 sight called the SUSAT)

[digital crane]

anyone know if any modders are planning snowy versions of everon?

[tepid torrent]

i wonder if they plan on adding more details to the .50, like being able to range it and having proper reload animations?

[sand verge]

yus and make use of the battle sight, but with tracers you dont even need to aim down sight

[cerulean token]

M2 with Tracers is a must honestly. The current sights are just straight up unusable. Especially with how clumsily heavy the turret is portrayed

[stray blade]

You defo aint using sights on the move. But for few accurate hits sight is good. But i agree primarly on vic mounted weapon you would use battlesight

[weak stump]

bro🙏

does it do more damage

[random cape]

*no SCOPES, not 'no sights'... my mistake

[signal spruce]

Direct? Probably not. It wasn’t the first random task generating mission in the series. The idea has come in different renditions over the years. However, there are some obvious similarities.

[astral iris]

Can official servers get a damn vote to ban botton?

[sand verge]

oh that wont get abused like the vote to kick...

[astral iris]

Vote kicking ain't any better, the player you vote kick can just get back in

I've sent vide evidence of a player blowing up player equipment and no response, the same damn player Carsomedan1 is free to roam ruining players games by just blowing up equipment to the point you can pull any more, you can vote kick him but he'll just come right back so a vote to ban people ain't to far fetched

[magic pebble]

A proper system to report greifers will be necessary for the future of the game. I don't like being able to vote ban someone, although the person who get kicked shouldn't be able to join the server until the match is over.

[sand verge]

Hosting a server or joining a group is your best option

[sand verge]

Is it just me or did the sniper rifles use to do more damage? It feels like now it’s a two shot kill from pretty much any range unless you get a head shot. Which kind of makes stealthy sniping not an option

[sand verge]

Just played a match with him lol

[astral iris]

Just recorded him throwing hand grenades at friendlies

Whom do I talk to about getting this Carsomedan1 permanently banned? I have several videos to prove he needs to be permanently banned

[static cloak]

are the nonstop dc still a problem? I aint played since the game came out

[astral iris]

Not as bad since the update

[static cloak]

still bad or you able to stay on for atleast an hour without dc

[astral iris]

A little more then an hour I'd guess, there are times it would feel like you crashed but it's just a screen freeze

[static cloak]

Thanks! I'll have to reinstall it then 🙂

[astral iris]

Most welcome, just watch out for Carsomedan1, he does nothing but blow up US equipment and work with the Russians to kill Americans as the Americans

[static cloak]

lol Im mainly just here to have fun I couldnt care less about winning

[astral iris]

Good luck then and god speed

[prime wigeon]

Anyone have the scenario ID for conflict of nations Arland?

[sand verge]

i keep on geting kicked for no reason

[mystic jacinth]

internet? the dc issues have basically been fised

[sand verge]

no my internet is fine ping is fine just have joined servers and it say (BattleEye:game restart required)

[stray blade]

Well there is a reason and game states it plainly.

[stray blade]

Check pins in #reforger_servers

[foggy ridge]

conflict of nations is a modded scenario

[stray blade]

Oh i havent seen "of nations" part, ignore that then.
If you are on pc tho, go to multiplayer -> hosting -> ignore all the settings -> load conflict of nations in mod manager -> select scenario -> press x -> and open that file
OR
Go to Documents\my games\arma reforger\addons{conflict of nations guid}
Open serverData.json and you will find scenario id there

[hasty isle]

Enfusion is the engine? And will arma 4 use it?

[cerulean token]

Yes

[hasty isle]

So can the mods (with some changes/adjustments) be ported over?

[slow pagoda]

Possibly but nothing is ever 100% certain

[round vigil]

Anyone know how to disable the tk penalty on nitrado

[stray blade]

no can do. You can unban if you are admin tho (or at least i dunno if its possible without modifying scenario)

[rapid plover]

How do you unban on console as admin?

[somber panther]

How do you give someone gm right as admin?

[tepid torrent]

when will any of the vehicles in reforger take damage from falling from heights?

[stray blade]

Damage DLC

[foggy ridge]

in general collision damage is an in progress thing I think, when I created a rocket propelled boxing glove launcher and used collision damage for the glove it didn't do anything

[buoyant gust]

Not up to me in general, but it will be possible when they are server side authoritative (🔜).

[stray blade]

Hopefully that wont make them as bad as they were in dayz at the beginning

[sand verge]

can anyone answer this?

[stray blade]

Cant in base game.

[hard ivy]

Since the ''ambulances'' never came out with the main ground support update, does anyone know if that's still on the agenda and if so any idea when we may see them? i'm super exited to do some good medical work in!

[thorn furnace]

I would guess still on the agenda; you can find some components and functionality related to ambulances in Workbench, suggesting they are actively being worked on.

[cerulean token]

We already know the exact ambulance the soviets will get. Viewable in the gamefiles.

[random cape]

Official word is that the devs plan to get everything originally announced for Ground Support into the game before finally moving on to Air Assault... but because someone in leadership (Dev Report #15 only used the collective we) severely underestimated the complexity and difficulty of developing the game and its underlying requirements... no ETA

[hard ivy]

That’s more than fair, and thank all of you. I understand the dev’s struggle and hope everything’s going well for them!

[coarse lake]

Am I the only one having issues with changing keybinds or is this still a general issue in the game?

[cedar quarry]

Does anyone know if it’s possible to put working parascopes or camera screens in vehicles?

[foggy ridge]

Yes

[long hound]

has there been any fixes for xbox not downloading mods? are the devs aware of the issue?

[cerulean token]

Anyone been able to turn off the hud/ui ? So I don't see those on-screen controls.

[stray blade]

On similar note, id like ability to reduce volume of UI sound effects

[marble roost]

Does somebody know why the new medical items haven't been implemented yet? A few days after the main update, they were mentioned in the FM but were never in the game

[shut pumice]

The RPG rockets aren't either

Unless that's what smaw rockets means

Smaw rockets are from the better explosives mod for the smaw

[stray blade]

There is a smaw now? With spotting rifle and all?

[fossil sparrow]

Hey, how long does it typically take for a game engine such as enfusion to be made?

[foggy ridge]

it's never complete

Or, if u look at unity every 2-3 years

[open geode]

Can I use mods in multiplayer on xbox?

[magic pebble]

Yes, if the server is running those mods.

[open geode]

Bet

[jolly citrus]

its never really finished, unless the engine proves itself unoptimal for use, even then maybe the engine was really good, then ppl take to their hands to bring it up to modern standards.
It's a really complex matter

[austere nimbus]

That fully depends on the required features, size of development team, and stuff like that.

Usually companies need roughly +4 years to update an existing engine (see Bethesda games, or even Arma 2 to Arma 3), which of course are more advanced engines compared to the stuff used for COD (2 year dev cycle) or Battlefield (2-3 year cycle).
Building a completely new engine like Enfusion takes roughly 10-15 years from start to finish, even with a large development team. And this includes the development tools as well.

Of course Enfusion is already being worked on for several years, and is in working state plus has the Workbench to develop with. But it's far from feature complete, and BI is not only building the engine but also building 2 games with it (Reforger and pre-work for Arma 4).

sorry i was playing with ya 😆 , it depends on the server you join most are cross platform meaning series X/S players and PC can play together

OK lol thank you.

Will it tell you if its crossplay or not like on the server browser thing.

[winter zephyr]

Yes, you can see at a glance with an icon

it should also state if it is crossplay in the name, or you just see the crossover arrow icon next to server

And I don't want to play a game that's dead af

You can always find a full server to play if you live in the EU or the US but the game currently is an empty shell. I suggest you wait until the developers fill it in few months then you should buy it.
