andrewman~SPARTA~ Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 Weight limits - British Forces combat fitness test - 35kg - 8 miles - two hours Running 1.5miles 9 minutes I would suggest that an infantry patrol will hump 40 kgs, and would conduct the patrol walking, if engaged the load is dumped and belt kit used. My 2 cents Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beta Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 (edited) With my normal kit I usually lug 23 - 24kg with Ace I like the limit myself (blackouts and all) since without it you can just take that 70 000cc backpack and just load up full on smaw rounds and ammo, you can end up lugging 80kg with no effort at all. A side note on the backpacks that I find cool, you can fit a rifle in them with clips. I had the 6 round grenade launcher with a spare rifle in my backpack Edited March 1, 2010 by Beta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My 2 cents You just made my day, the loadout I carry into mission is 43Kg most of it is in my backpack which I can drop. I still haven't fully researched the CQB weapon I want to carry (at present a SA 58 with six mags of 7.62). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Halli, thats what happens when your internet connection consists of you talking to someone at the other end of a can line who describes everything that would be going on your screen.

Skaz~SPARTA~ Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 As soon as the final version is released, get this on our server! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punisher~SPARTA~ Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 As soon as the final version is released, get this on our server! This is ACE, there is no final version, only updates . It will calm down eventually but I don't think we can ever expect a static version that everyone can rely on for a long time. Its just going to come down to controlling the version we use, the same way it happened with the original ACE in ARMA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, the initial install did take a while. But the intermittent updates have been dealable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeltaSierra Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 (edited) Intermittent updates take anywhere from 1-15 minutes depending on how big the update is and how fast your connection is. Edited March 1, 2010 by DeltaSierra~SPARTA~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

custard~SPARTA~ Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 FYI ACE2 has a built in sight adjustment, if you use the GMJ mod and press shift V (this switches on the built in sight adjustment) the GMJ mod stops working. I like the built inversion and am setting up range cards for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beta Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 there's a range card for them, if you pop down the range table you can also get the wind, don't forget to brind a kestrel (wind) and a Vector (I think thats the name) Range finder now if only they could try to keep the updates per day down (8 updates were done yesterday, its not to say thats a bad thing, but its just too many downloads to do per day, check a few weeks back it got a update then 15 seconds later new version.)
