Popular Post MessedUpSmiley Posted October 17, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted October 17, 2016 Data & Time: Sunday 23/10/'16 15:00 UTC Where: EU#1 & EU#2 Requirements: None, but a good mood. Optional mods: The official repository mods Also time for questions etc. from 14:30 till 14:55 UTC ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hello everyone, I'm proud to announce that after a lot of hard work @BACONMOP has finished I&A 3. I&A 3 will be the successor the the current I&A (2) that's running on the servers and has lots of different and new features such as a new medical system, the side missions now being linked to the current AO , a few "take-over-able" AO's and some nice things to do with the points you've scored playing. We are planning on releasing it live this Sunday (23rd) at 15:00 GMT after which it can be played on EU#1 and EU#2 on Altis and Tanoa respectively. During it's launch we hope that as many of you as possible can come on the Teamspeak 3 server and enjoy the refreshing new gameplay together. Before its release we would also like to make time for a community meeting specifically about I&A 3, where you can listen to how it works; but can also ask questions, which don't necessarily have to be about I&A 3; but could also be about AhoyWorld itself. The staff present will then try their best to answer their questions or when unclear get back to you with an answer at a later time. This meeting would start and half an hour in front of the launch and would be from 14:30 till 14:55. Feel free to pop in at any time, but questions asked a second time will probably not be answered again; so it would be wise to show up from the start. Feel free to GET HYPE down below and hopefully we will see you all this Sunday.

GamerbugUK Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 Awesome stuff. Curious about the new medic system, hopefully something simple but fun. Can't make the meeting, due to a hyper 2yo, but will aim to be online on the 23rd. Will the full info be availble on the forums of what changed etc?

Cebi Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 Really happy to see this. What I saw in tests was a really promising concept. Can't wait to dig into it and to write feedback Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eagle-Eye Posted October 22, 2016 Share Posted October 22, 2016 Question: I can imagine that quite a lot of people will want to try this at event start (maybe even more than the 120 that EU1/2 combined can gather?), so when all try to connect simultaneously when you say 'server is up', I'm pretty sure things could go (very) wrong with or on the server. As such, how will access to the server be regulated? Is there a special picking order, other than the normal AW hierarchy, or will it be first-come first-served?

The connection needs to be regulated or the server will crash SHOULD more than expected players connect at the same time. Unless redundancy has been put in place. I might be connecting in the last hours of the event since it will be morning here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PERO Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 I believe we have no special procedure for this, it will be the same as the server restarts/reboot. Not sure, we haven`t fully discussed this yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fir_nev Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 Cons Trolls are taking advantage of the no-Teamkill feed Players stuck at death screen even after revive Could not carry or drag casualties Pros I understand that I&A3 is to push players to a more infantry-base gameplay I will copy and paste these points in the feedback thread (if there is any) Liru the Lcpl. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speaking of which with the new revive mechanic, everytime I held the middle mouse button it would just stop and go to the downed guys inventory. When I finally got the meter to fill, the guy just lay there, no idea if it worked or if he had respawned. I've added a key press to actions/middle wheel again, will see if that helps. The handy distance meter for downed comrades is gone, and I couldn't discern on a map quite who was downed, so you are left with a marker and no idea how far away they are. Floating dead soldiers were abundant. I like the fact it now only shows weapons you can equip on the arsenal. Still its a nice start lets see how it evolves.

I spent a minute looking at the body hoping that the drag or carry actions appear in the menu I have not played as a medic but when a medic revived me, I just lay on the ground unable to move I think it is realistic for medics not able to see casualties unless they are issued goggles with HUD. Chances of players holding the spacebar is far greater Haven't come across a floating soldier I agree with the class-matching weapons selection I was not around when AhoyWorld was on Stratis so I shall not criticise on the development of I&A3.

Chances of players holding the spacebar is far greater 1. Yeah as a medic all options appeared as they should, there is a new context menu for reviving, but you have to hold in the middle mouse button for a while a dial fills up, but the middle mouse button seems very iffy, so hopefully assigning a button will work, we shall see. 2. That was what happened after I revived a guy. 3. Well that depends on how realistic EU1 or 2 need to be; I mean I still get a magic red asterisk saying there is an downed soldier 'somewhere over there', which is also completley unrealistic, how would I know there is someone in need of medical attention if I cannot physically see them? There needs to be some way of us knowing how close a downed soldier is, because you are not going to run to a guy 300m away when one is 50m away, you are going to prioritise. I have complete faith in I&A's development, and these teething problems are to be expected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZeroZeroSix Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 Do we have any kind of write up or recording for people who couldnt make it? Also, is there a specifc thread for feedback or are we just going to abuse this one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MessedUpSmiley Posted October 24, 2016 Author Share Posted October 24, 2016 @David made a recording and I might start with an FAQ thread this week, feedback thread is up to @BACONMOP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fir_nev Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 Overall, the idea is good. I have yet to try the Sorcher and CAS laptop script but I am sure it will be useful. Great idea there, @BACONMOP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B4rtlbi3 Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 My first hours in combat with V3 were not that much to say anything about it but I think I like it! Thanks for the hard work that is needed to make such a setup. Second - I am proud that you guys take my screenies to fill the website and the new I&A3 Logo I try always to get the best graphics out of Arma 3 and Reallight (http://sh8.videopilot.link/real-light-7/) a very good Mod that I am using! Will test this night and will give some good feedback. Sadly on the Server some people think they have to moan about the new version but i think thats the "Steam-Generation" who insults everyone and everything at any time wherever they go... cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
