  1. I've played medic roles on EU2 a lot, and it's very tempting to go into a minefield, as your job is to help downed soldiers, but you just have to find a balance of when and/or if.

     

    There is the issue of them being public servers, or people screaming medic while in the middle of a minefield and then getting pissy when you don't go and get them immediately, but the call is the medics, not the person bleeding out; (ditto for pilots and passengers, passengers suggest adn LZ, the pilot decides if its good or not.)

     

    Of course the worse thing is when you do try to get them from the minefield, then as you get there they re-spawn because they are bored of waiting...

     

    Oh and medics should always attempt to revive medics first, as long as its safe to do so, you'd be amazed how often that doesn't happen. Oh and don't all try to revive the same group of people, as one explosive later you have 3 dead medics with good intentions, rather than 1 dead medic and 2 with a chance to revive him.

     

    What happens when you try to please people...

  2. Just for the record, I regret writing anything angry in the chat. I was really pissed, but I should've kept a calm head.

     

    Even when U scolded them, they just kept going in. Two people who advanced further into the minefield got killed too.

     

    Mhhh Minefield whats that ;P

     

    most of the guys they go in a minefield dosent now thats a minefield or they dont care so we need blockers  ...

     

    That's one great idea!

  3. I am pretty sure that players of AhoyWorld playing medics in EU 1 & 2 know what they should and should not do.

     

    My biggest worry is when medics risk their lives going into minefields to revive downed soldiers.

     

    In my opinion, operating near minefields, medics should:

    1. operate in, at least, groups of three
    2. tell any nearby rifleman / SL (if available) to drag the casualty out
    3. be the last person to enter

    On the other hand, personnel(s), near minefields, should:

    1. volunteer to enter if you see medics at the perimeter
    2. not rush in if you see a medic already inside (let the medic complete the revives alone)
      • I witnessed at least 2 unlucky medics killed by mines triggered by onrushing medic(s) or non-medical personnel(s) this week
    3. try to extract the nearest downed medic first

    I know that this is just a simulator which we enjoy playing but it does not hurt practising. I look forward to your inputs and opinions from other Corpsman/Medic. Do point out any mistakes.

     

    Much appreciated. :)

  4. I hope your relation isnt going to suffer due to playing arma. After all, finding such a nice wife is harder as finding a good arma server. I have posted my profile on many datingsites, none turned up so far. Im not sure its becouse im honest about playing arma or mentioning muliple mental/social disorders i seem to have, maybe you can give me some advice? 

     

    I have no advice for U, man... It just happened! For me, as long as the wife is happy, I am happy.

     

    Just be patient. Hang in there.

  5. You can use the backup feature of Win7/10 to do a system image and restore from that. As it happened I was using Samsung SSD which supply a free, very useful and easy software which can clone any disk/SSD to a Samsung SSD.

    For me, that's a big reason to stick with Samsung SSD.

     

    *Looks for CD in SAMSUNG SSD box*

     

    Wait. Or can we find it in SAMSUNG's portal? I have Acronis, that is why I pay little attention to it. :wacko:

  6. Gareth,

     

    • I started with a 120Gb SSD and 500Gb HDD, I don't do video editing but soon found the SSD too small when BF3 had all addons released, I then got a 250Gb and found the same with BF4 and GTAV installed, add on top of that Arma3 and mods it was not enough, so I have my old 120Gb SSD for Arma3 and some other things.  120Gb SSDs can be found very cheap at the moment (£34.99!) and it's worth considering this in the future for either games or to use as a scratch disk for your streaming and editing.

     

    Maybe he can spend few spare quids on acquiring Acronis to back up an image should he need to upgrade to bigger capacity drives? Saves the time to reformat like U did (if U went through it).

  7. Working down the list: 
    • The PSU I am thinking of getting a 850W as 3 years down the line when my settings go from ultra to high/medium I want to throw in another Graphics card, and I don't want the power to be a limiting issue.
    • Will that MOBO support SLI?
    • Regarding the CPU I am thinking of the i5 6600K vs the i7 6700K.
    • With the GPU how much difference is in the GTX 980 Strix to the GTX 980 Ti?

    Thank you guys for taking the time to help out with this. I'm hoping to get everything soon so I can build it within one to two weeks!

     

    That draft is one powerful machine!

    • Go with higher power. Up to 1000W for such setup. Need to match second GPU's power consumption
    • From what I heard, i7-6700K is having shortage still(?) Might want to wait for that if you are not in a rush?
    • 980Ti can still outperform my 970 (if I decide to SLI it). I recommend that. Comparisons between 980 and 980Ti
    • Yes. As quoted in MSI website:
