Some Communities on Arma 3, like ShackTactical do that every time, so if you have a good PC and don't bother too much w/ arma 3 non existent control scheme, try that out

It has some serious drawbacks as a gamemode in itself, but it's extremely fun as an event.*
PRTA should consider hosting this weekly or something, as I'd probably join every time.


*Fucking bullshit though I hatted a tank and hit him with SPG-9 HEAT and then he shot me broken game piece of shit #BlameTheTesters

Yes it really gives you a more intense and rewarding experience. It fixes a long PR problem - penalty for dying.

But what didn't work is that the slots need filling up constantly, which wasn't working this time.

Used to play Americas's Army. It kind of had 1-life-only. If you died, it was like 5 min wait until the round was over.

Idk, get killed by stupid old BF2 game mechanics no thanks. (car clips into object: boom etc.)

Mentioning logistics, couldn't we have some sort of layout where logistical vehicles are more valuable and common, I hate the whole 1 man grab a trans truck and ditch it close to where he wants to be, moves away and still the truck is ditched there whilst it would probably be better to relocate using the truck.

You think if it cost 50 tickets he wouldn't abandon it?

It's about the someone might need it after me, not the tickets, selfish people everywhere.

One life are fun .... till you die and have to find another server.

Issues populating.
Also dying due to glitches, TKs, or disconnects is far too heavily punished.
Also FOBs and especially rallies become largely obsolete.

Perhaps the developers can give PRTA special permission to run the server without a password to ensure more people will keep joining a running game. I know I would wait for the next round if I already died.

Well after the next saturdays event, which will feature revised and fixed gameplay for even more immersion, we will also run an INS event in the following weeks. :) More info coming asap!

Personally I'd like a mode where you become dead dead (not wounded) when you die. This would make people think twice before rushing into enemy territory, because now when you get shot you cannot get revived.

I think this would be an interesting mode to play.

That would make more people eager to die to quickly respawn rather than wait for a nearby medic or your squad to try and "rescue" you.

I'd rather see a penalty to dying, as in a 5 minute respawn timer, as most games go for an hour or an hour and a half, I can live with that.

Blame the devs. They brought back the permanent rallies with 1.0.
A lot of us miss the .95 / .98 spawn mechanics.

I'd see people trolling too, as they would just intentionally teamkill you.
