    Magic The Gathering Online

    in General Game Talk

    Posted

    I just started playing the last month or two. The online one cost $9.99 and they give you a lot of cards to start out with, later on a person can buy a lot more with Event Tickets that only cost a dollar. It seems a cheaper way these days and Magic is always coming out with new cards all the time, it's hard to keep up in real life. I can imagine someone spending lots of money on the real cards, trying to get the cards they want.

     

    Yeah it seems very commercial, there are so many cards and so many expansions out there.

    New Version of Domination (V24) now on server

    in ARMA 2

    Posted

    I've experienced the no-altimeter/speed thing, but just figured it was a change in the new version rather than a bug. I might be wrong but I haven't seen anything about it on the BIS forum. The heading north thing being taken out is actually a nice change...for me anyways. I've jumped a few times while testing it and haven't experienced the no-chute bug.

     

    Base Sabotage needs to be turned off, its a pain when choppers come in all the time.

    The Ammo box is a bug that has been fixed in the latest beta patch. The more kit you add the higher the probabilty of a crash

     

    I've tried the beta patch and the ammo box seems to be working fine, it seems smoother when getting in the box.

     

    The only thing I found weird about the beta is scoped weapons, like the DMR and 110. The seem to be very jerky when shooting them. It seems like they increased the recoil on them, maybe all the weapons too. It's a noticeable difference and it makes sniping harder. I switch between the beta and regular and can see a difference. I'm think it might be a problem just in the beta version and it won't be in the regular patch.

    The ammo box freezes up after a while, maybe one-to-many rifles. We could maybe dump the G36s and maybe lose the M16A4 M203 ACOG, since the M4A3 ACOG GL is pretty much the same, but with a better scope.

     

    Founds some PKM mags. in the box.

    I was playing the server for about an hour, everything seemed alright. It's just weird shooting the DMR again after using the 110 in OA. It was like hanging out with an old friend again.

     

    I don't know if you guys have this turned off, but the wrecks re-spawn right away and are not left on the map to be picked up. I think a few of us miss picking them up.

    To bad i wasnt there ,work work work (its not so bad but the heat +30celsius )

     

    Last time i checked it was a democraty.

     

    Sometimes i got silenced too ..newbie . (hey i am a big boy.)

     

    Everybody has his own way to survive .. just blend it in with whats needed.

     

    rspct to all ( and thats hard sometimes i know..)

     

    Everybody has a plan until he gets hit.

     

    see ya soon humans..

     

    i wanted to be there booohoo.. i got stuck on the sofa

     

    I missed most of the second map, I was making some food and drink. I guess it didn't go well.

     

    I think most of us know how to play with each other and know what the other person move or tactic are. This is because we played so many missions together, that we know each regular player to the Sparta server very well. That is what a fighting unit should be, one that can communicate very well and function as one.

     

    There are a lot of new guys in the server since OA came out, which is a good thing, but in time I think they will become better part of the unit.

     

    Communication is always the best thing, even though we play with the same people we can't assume that we know what's going on.

    Server Missions

    in ARMA 2

    Posted

    I was wondering if there was a way to post the right missions to load on the sparta servers? Or maybe in the list of missions that an admin has to pick from, put an asterisk in front of it.

     

    Sometimes when an Admin isn't on and we have to vote one in, some of those admins don't know which mission to load and end up playing the wrong mission or keep on restarting to the find right one ,which, in turns kills valuable Arma playing time.

     

    I play a lot and still don't know what missions to load for the different servers.

     

    Thanks.

    There is a problem with the Mk17 7.62 magazines, it wont go in the backpack.

     

    If a person gets the Rifle and a full load out of ammo and then, puts the gun in backpack using scroll menu, the gun will go in backpack but, the ammo won't.

     

    The 7.62 magazines for the 110 Rifle will load to backpack. I haven't tried any other Rifles with 7.62 magazines, so I don't know if any of them have the same problems.

    Custom Faces

    in ARMA 2

    Yes when playing dark color on the face is a bit washed out ,i just redone the dark parts,and it looks better.

     

    How did you adjust the dark parts?

    Custom Faces

    rename the jpeg's to "face.jpg" and place in your characters profile folder as EMT pointed out....also this directory might be "documents\ArmA 2 other profiles" (for Win 7 / Vista c:\users\<windows account name>\My Documents; for Win xp C:\docs&settings\<windows account name>\My Documents), but you can only use one at a time.

     

    Also keep in mind that those that have ati cards opposed to nvidia see the custom face with a bit of a white tone to them. So if you notice your face Camo is a bit "washed out and white" this is why. I used to use a custom face, not so much anymore since some servers have constraints to how large of custom files and may not allow custom faces as it makes everyone download the file. Same thing goes for custom emotes, clan tags etc.....so if your total exceeds that which the server threshold allows you may have troubles connecting, but you get a message that will indicate such. Sparta's servers I believe don't have these constraints active.

     

    I've been adding custom faces and some don't look like the jpeg. I do notice black is washed out a lot. I have an Nvidia card.

     

    I use one that has a white skull mouth with a black background, it looks fine when I view it in the Arma menu under my profile, but when I play the game and get revived, I can see my face without the black background. All I see is the white skull mouth with a normal face background. Is this pretty normal?

    I found this on the internet and got what I needed, it unlocked the camo faces without adding an add-on file: http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?t=75231

     

    All you have to do is edit your Arma II profile in XP, located here : C:\Documents and Settings\(User Name)\My Documents\ArmA 2 Other Profiles

     

    Thanks for help guys, when I get around to making my own faces I will do what you guys suggested.

    Custom Faces

    in ARMA 2

    Posted

    Hey guys, how do I put custom face on my character, so that they run in the regular server and the ace server? I've downloaded from armaholic the 642 faces unlocked before and used the camofaces, but now it doesn't seem to work. Is there another way I can get camo faces on my character or custom faces?
