Having played a bit more watching the different added/rewarded stuff i have to point out that the spawn-chance/reward-chance of the Gorgon is way to high,its nearly the new Fake10 of rewards now
Better increase the % of Strider-HMG and decrease the % of mentioned Gorgon by min. 10% ...
Not a gamebreaker,but noticable !
but mobile mortar truck has to be one of my favouritesYuk!

Well,you dont hear it often from my side,but ...
GOOD FKKING JOB on the new reward list,its still not rly perfect but way,way better than before!
Credit where its due!

Take this as opinion of a "innocent bystander" as i clearly lack the insight in a) you and the situation enough to come on here with a my "entitled" speech,but such a topic doesnt improve your status in a good way - should of had been posted via PM to "advanced" people imo maybe even to the credited person´s themself.
As from my experience in clan´s/communities and similar you dont want to credit people by their time of being with the organisation,you would want to credit those that keep potential to improve/build on/keep things running in your organisation!
And dont forget that any "promotion" comes with a price and that price is mostly MORE DUTYS - MORE WORK and LESS TIME for the anything else if you take it seriously - which might be fun for a while,but more workload isnt necessarily a thing looking forward to ...
From the hours we shared the front together i m sure you a great asset to any team,so dont feel overlooked by not having a "title".
Titles are worth shit,if you dont have the respect from people around/below you - i know plenty "leaders" i wouldnt follow into a hot zone cause i dont trust their combat/awareness/big picture skills (in real life and ingame).
Hope you dont take me 0,02$ the wrong way,bu i rly didnt expected such a topic from your part
Nxt time,come for my basement and we can have a ... drink together!
Yes,only a drink ... for now!

Taking the opportunity to chip in my 0,02 ...
I asked several times (ingame) to get details on a PayPal donation i consider´d dropping to AHOY,as i m awfully rich and needed to find more (usefull) opportunities to "invest" my (blackmail-free) muney ...
I m not interested in "subscribing",getting "perks" or anything else in return (world-domination) - all i need is a simple way to find the PayPal contact details to be done with and dish out whenever and whatever i find usefull/necessary ...
So,for god sake,some fool drop me the goddamn PayPal details - else all my xmas money will be spend on c+w
And,a reply without a fitting image to support my opinion is a wasted reply,therefor :

Well,being always a fan of CTI-Missions,starting wit EVO on ARMA 1 and Domination on ARMA 2 and above and once i finally bought the (crappy/lacking) RC of A3 i found pleasure in playing a Domination port (not officially supported by Xeno,genius,stubbern dev of it) i stumbled upon I+A by reading Bohemia forums and started playing it on random servers (crappy customized RipOff´s) then found the glorious EU1 server and from the hour i started playing on it,i never stopped!
Also:

What am I to respond to the constant "Regroup" messages I'm getting and sometimes, unknowingly/unwillingly, sending out?
Just for calrification (for people that never played the OPF bible game,which thougt you how to "command") - if you get called by your leader "2,Regroup" the Squad Leader/Unit Leader can issue the "Stop" command which will set your unit to WAIT and you wont have to listen to the Regroup calls untill your SqdL dies - then rinse repeat ...
Apply like this "F2 > 1 > 6" where F2 is the guy you want to give the command to
Hope this does clear a few things up

i expected this to be done by now,but still isnt ... therefor :
-
with the no flares its very hard to not get shot by CAS.
You may have overread it,but the Orca does have flares since the cursed Chopper DLC,so that point is no longer valid ...
-
Then,we´ve been there,we´ve done that and we got the medal!
- http://www.ahoyworld.co.uk/topic/3182-changing-the-helis/
- http://www.ahoyworld.co.uk/topic/4306-justicefororcas/
The Orca is a great addition for operations imo and when being used and deployed right its a great asset - but imo - it should be a rare side reward,the two GH solution is -once again imo - catering to the nubs that cant fly without flares (back in the time the Orca had none) but is a far better solution than a stock Orca (cause it causes discussions on who uses it just like the MH9/BF/Fake10)
Therefor ...

10. Park cover´d
You will surely find a position that unites overview + cover vs the direction you r engaging on (Houses,Rocks.Containers,etc.)
A good cover gives you at least 3 more seconds to react to a threat,maximizing your field-time and minimizing your engineer Time ... helps vs Jets too - there s countless times 1-2 RPGs hit the house i was parked behind and yet i m still here to tell about it

For starters :
Secondly,the ARMA 3 PhysX is totally fkked up at times and the opportunities i 360 double flipped in Hunter´s / KUMA´s / Slammer´s / Bobcat´s / "insert any vehicle here" are endless ...
One time we had a KUMA side reward and i got lucky and grabbed it (early morning @ server) and 1 pub jumped in Gunner while i was loading AA missiles for protection of my precious ...
He turned the gun,collided with the VAS ammo crate (which wont move and acts as "blocking volume") and the goddamn KUMA turned 180 sidewards over and ended lying on his back like a turtle
That was 2 patches ago ... and while the last patch definatly "improved" vehicle movements/durability" we´ll never get rid of seeing those things to happen!
ProTip:
Keep movement while the vehicle starts turning and work carefully on rebalancing it/fighting against it - often helps me

there´s a few things i´d lik to add when it comes to UAV Op - basically you only got two priorities :
CAS support (Radiotower,MBT,inf Strongholds)
and
Overwatch / High Reconnaissance
and therefor on both of those dutys COMMUNICATION is key.
Either when being called for LD´d targets,tell your crew on ground what is happening and the time schedule its happening.
Nothing is more anti-morale than sittting on pos and forever waiting for nothing to happen.
When a AO is close to finish,get your Greyhawks to service and back in the air BEFORE a new Area of Operation opens,cause most def the first guys near/into AO will praise heaven when a UAV Op is rdy to take the job.

What you didn't know is... he screams at me when I'm the gunner on a tank xD
... but far worse things may happen now i found out you SNITCHed on me

Any novel ideas for other rewards?
- Offroad Repair (that yellow one from the blasphemic cart DLC)
- 2nd Bobcat (god damn pubs use Bobcat Base for illiterate tours into AO´s/Side Missions > limit fuel amount of Bobcat base)
- ORCA unarmed / with ORCA skin (self explaining)
- Strider HMG / with AAF camo skin
- Hunter / with Wasp skin
People need to care more for side missions anyway,so give em something to work for (worked with SteamHats too) and make em treat their rewards fairly gentle ...
See how i didnt put a PINK KUMA in there?
Eh?
Eh?
And im not even commenting on the FOB idea *cough* no *cough*
Dont make it even easier for cowardoodies,please ...
VENGA BOYZ dance attack!

Changing the numbers is quite easy actually,well i havnt looked at the actual script/calculation of chance of possibilty,i m to lazy to begin with.
And once again i´d vote for a lottery script liek mentioned in my previous post to make it a bit more "unpredictable".
After all,it all comes down to who writes it and is willling to spend their spare time on it (expect a few alpha and beta processes till it works flawless for a unlimited amount of server up-time).
Ranting is fine,but finding a doable fix/change is the key thing on this ....
-
.... in addition to this topic,from a session i played for around 8h over the day i saw following rewards by side missions :
- 4 Pony´s
- 2 Fake10
- 2 BF´s
- 1 Kajman
- 1 Taru
- 1 Marshall
- 1 T100
- 1 Mortar Truck
So,considering the above mentioned (valid) points i´d srsly like to have this sorted a bit more fair,please.
And yea,i agree that the Fake10 should be tthe ultimate "rare" reward,the Buzz CAS seems like a better way of giving credit without OPing something ...
And no,dont limit the Carryall,k,thx,bye
Sincerly yours

this guy ...
Welcome to the forums !
*no one likes austrians,true story*

Most Side Rewards consist of: Hellcats, Orca's, Taru's, Blackfoots, etc.
Whereas you will see less: Slammers, Kuma's, T-100's, and other APC Vehicles.
I feel this is a problem because they are quite biased and only 5 pilots can use these rewards whereas the other 55 players can't.
My second suggestion is getting rid of some of the rewards, like the mobile mortar truck, which is fairly useless, and also things like the Mora or the PONY variants and the Marshall that already spawn by deafult, and possibly replacing them
So Overall, My suggestion is that maybe the reward system could be tweaked a bit so it is more focused towards the ground troops more than the pilots on the server.
this so god damn much!
There should be a kind of pool/lottery system that works rewards,so its a bit mixed,prop. with a exclusion script so you dont get a BF,then a BF and again a BF ...
Ground Troops should def get some more credit,after all were doing the work while the Pilots will most likely screw BF/Kajmans and the Fake10 on entry/shortly after (proven fact,80% of the time,no offense)
And imo a tank crew bonds people nicely into the kind of COOP I+A is/should be so focused on!
Additional Vehicles for reward list:
- Strider HMG
- FriT HMG
- ZSU Tigris
- 2nd Bobcat
- 2nd Med HMTT
