First night back.
Last night (Feb 9) was my first time playing ArmA since 1.08 was released. Things did not go smoothly....
-Could not find targets... I remember this game is tough and finding targets is hard so fine. I still got to shoot buildings, tents and lots of trees though. Also very intense when everyone around you starts shooting an you have no idea why.
-Hard to stay with squad.... If not for that little circle on my squad leader I would have have spent every mission running around lost and alone.
-Clausaphobic... Riding in bacl of APC with no external views, no magic map to track progress etc...
-Rusty... This was complicated by wife issues as well though. Had a chance to get airborn in an MH-6 (bird of choice for me) to do some recon and guidance of ground forces. Betweem wrong VOIP channel, getting lost and then jumping out instead of auto-hover I have some serious practice I can get back to my distinguisjed air cav badge again...
Glad to be back though.

Re: First night back.
-Could not find targets... Yeah them Soviet infies are hard to spot sometimes.
-Hard to stay with squad.... Thats the job of the squadleader tbh. A good squadleader always keeps an eye on his men.
-Clausaphobic... you never know when they will hit ya !
-Rusty... After a couple of games youll get the hang of it again

Bring a copilot to do the watching while you do the flying. Originally Posted by sparks50

Re: First night back.
Welcome back, Toshido. If you need help with anything, I'll try and help (that's if I can help
). Just takes a while to get back into "the zone", try not to get caught in the front line until you are confident again. :P

Re: First night back.
Last night got caught seperated from the rest of the squad in the park on the perfect utopia (I think) mission.
Once it was all said and down I had 8 (i think) kills and was able to get out of there. With the kindest thanks to Fincuan aka clown face (probably misspelled) who came to my rescue as I lay wounded in the grass. Then i ran like a screaming like a schoolgirl out of the park to kill another two hostiles before reforming with my squad.
Good times and the game is coming back quick.
Now to start leading missions soon.
