Brings a tear to my eye

12 Upvotes

I've been playing this game for a week or so now and I love it, its all the best things about arma combat condensed into rounds with great mechanics in place to stop everyone camping.

But honestly this is probably one of he best community I have played with in a long time, I've not met a single toxic player so far, and when everyone on your team has a mic and is communicating its makes the game that much more fun.

I know its early days yet and as the game gets more popular the community's personality will change, but for now I'm loving it :)

I know this is a bit of a shitpost but I wanted to share.

P.S here are my stats for anyone that cares :P

You may play as a burly dude but you have the hitbox of a child.

Was doing some PIG testing with a buddy as we wanted to see the damage ratio from glancing shots (seems to be about half). And we inadvertently discovered that the body is much thinner than it physically appears.

Here is a short clip demonstrating https://streamable.com/05cqt My friend had a similar experience when trying to test damage done to legs.

I love this game.

10 Upvotes

I have 900 hours played in Arma 3 and 600 in DayZ Standalone.

For a long time I have been looking for a good pvp game. The problem with Arma is that you have a lot of diferent modes to play and tons of mods and addons to install, in the end everyone is scattered playing diferent things with diferent mods. Im not saying that we don't have good pvp gamemodes, but I don't really like wasteland or KOTH at all. So since Battlefield One is still a bit broken and unbalanced and is impossible that I reinstall that toxic game known as Counter Strike, I decided to try this experimental Project Argo.

And I loved it, it is great even with a lot of things missing or under development. I really hope to see this game finished someday.

Thanks, Bohemia Interactive guys, you are doing great with this.

Played the game yesterday and its still fun.

Title. Played a few rounds in a clash lobby, as the lowest rank at 19. Actually had a blast because everyone knew what they were doing and there was a lot of teamwork. The being said you would be totally fucked if you tried to pick the game back up and you werent high enough level to get a DMR 2 or body armor.

Biggest problem with Game: Friendly Fire.

8 Upvotes

Simply put, the distinction between one team, or another, is nearly impossible to tell. They should at least make one team white guys, and other team black guys, or something. Or make their clothes have blue/orange color schemes to them.

Just being able to tell a team, by whether it's short sleeve or long sleeve is very hard, espcially considering how much you can change your looks. You're supposed to do this when a guy is around a corner, with his head peeking out? Or in a snap decision, within 0.25 seconds of seeing him? The Amount of FF deaths is insane. And while it might get better with time... it can only get so good... because it's so hard to tell the difference.

More Non-Hardcore servers would help player base.

8 Upvotes

I'm just getting into this game to see what it's about. Mechanics feel pretty good, but I'm done playing because all the official servers (aside from 1) are Hardcore.

Having to constantly reference my map before I shoot is irritating. I love playing Squad but at least then costumes change team to team and you can learn to react to visuals.

This game gives me no reference, and no where to learn.

Great way to keep the player base small; hard to learn, hard to master.

I'm looking forward to improvements. Looks like the maps have room to grow.

XP and Money Reward after Game

7 Upvotes

Hey all,

I just wanted to ask if it just me, or if it is a common thing.

Sometimes it happens, that after a round the Reward screen doesn't apper. And then, what a suprise, I don't get Money/XP.

So, am I the only one having this Error/Bug? Or are there other ppl that have the same problem?

It's really sad this game is basically dead already

7 Upvotes

I've never seen more than a few dozen people in game at any given time and a few times have logged on to find nobody else playing.

Is there a solution or is this game doomed to be dead forever? I know it's still technically in testing but not having a solid following while already being over 6 months into development isn't showing good signs of interest.

Balance Suggestion / Sniper Rifles too powerful

7 Upvotes

First i want to thank the Devs for making this game! I love it! Especially the hardcore mode as it is! Its perfect! I have some troube understanding the current balance right now tho. Imo most sniper rifles are too powerful at the moment, because they all have a reflex sight and no downsides to a normal rifle. Especially the ones with a big magazine. But they have an enormous advantage on long ranges (obviously). I would love to see the reflex sight removed on most if not all sniper rifles, to make them more situational. What do you guys think?

free to play? not if you live in the US apparently

6 Upvotes

alright devs, we could live with the ongoing death of the US servers throughout the "prototype" period and call it "server maintenance." But today, launch day, the only US servers available (AT ALL) are the "Premium" servers. That means that I can't play without at least a ~180ms ping (EU servers). This was often the case for me in prototype, like I said, but this is getting silly now... what's the deal?

I had to quit this after 5 minutes because the FOV made me feel sick. Felt like I was playing Halo. Can it be changed?

Is Project Argo to buggy to the point where un-playable becomes a reference?

5 Upvotes

Project Argo (Or now know as just Argo) is a very simple version of Arma 3 as it is created by the same company, but playing Argo i have experienced so many problems its hard to count, in the way were it is so buggy its un-bearable, i have had a solid 75fps on every game/round, meaning it runs very smoothly until the game crashes of some sort or the servers just close down. Very aggravating when your pulling 17-0 mid game, just a note to get feed back on if you have hgad the same experience or your thoughts on the game overall...

Feel free to comment.

Using DMR's

5 Upvotes

I finally unlocked the first rung of DMR's and have purchased both the MXM and that Chinese one, they're both great and feel very smooth and powerful despite only being 6.5mm.

The question is, should I be trying best as possible to play a designated marksman role or should I just move in as close as everyone else? What are the best modes for DMR's currently?

Argo already hemorrhaging players, from its already small player-base

5 Upvotes

Honestly, it looks like this game is going to be dead soon. The game started out with decent playership. But, it peaked on the first day of release. It held its playerbase for a few days. But since, it's been losing players every day.

I feel that unless the devs make a patch very soon, this game will be dead/forgotten, except a handful of level 25 people, who like stomping noobs. The matchmaking is just too out of whack for new players. The vs AI mode is a poor game-mode, with tons of bugs.

Overall the game is very glitchy. Constantly people spawn where they shouldn't. Constant mini-map glitching. Almost every time I enter the menus while in game, my voice-chat, and text chat glitch out, and no longer show up. I've spawned with my legs stuck in the concrete many times now. And on top of it all, the optimization is pretty darn bad, for a game this simple.

That's not to mention the MAJOR problem, which is teamkills. It's nearly impossible to tell the teams apart(I KNOW LONG SLEEVE VS SHORT). But in practical situations, you're forced to pause, and try to look at a person's sleeves(which often aren't CLOSE to being visible, if they're peeking around a corner, or are in a bush).

I really don't think this game is going to survive the next month, unless a serious update is coming. But for some reason, I don't feel like it is, and this game is just going to die. And that's because the problems with it are SO far reaching, that it's not just one thing. It's balance. It's glitches. It's matchmaking. It's optimization. It's fundamental game-play aspects. I'm going to keep playing every once and a while, just for fun. But even now, it's becoming harder and harder to find a game without joining one 1/2 way through. And even the games you do join, it's often a lopsided team, which results in one team having players leave before the match is even over.

EDIT: http://steamcharts.com/app/530700

There's the graph. Started out with players in the 7k-6k range every day. Now it's lucky to get 4k at peak(hasn't in the last 4 days or so). For a free-to-play game, that wasn't that well advertised, this drop-off is a pretty big deal. I don't really see how the game can attract new players, without an ad campaign, or some HEAVY changes to gameplay.

Suppressor difference?

What is the difference between a 2k credit and a 20k credit suppressors on 1dmr? I mean it LOOKS longer but I cant hear any difference in sound it makes.

Hey, I recently discovered this game and I find the concept , the story and the missions very interesting. I also found out that it's almost dead and there are almost no servers.

Anyone interested in playing this game? Comment and we can host games ourselves.

Also let's promote this game to our friends and other forums!
