Folk ARPS

Alright so assuming I am not super tech-savvy regarding modding and patching, I have been having quite a few (non-game breaking) errors pop up as of late due to a common compatibility problem between the latest CBA_CO versions and the latest Arma 2 Beta patch. I am running ArmA 2 through Steam (no S...

While I do not know all comrades personally, I doubt that most players here have such a need to win that they would justify screen watching in order to get a tactical advantage over the enemy. I mean if your main concern is to "win" at stuff, Folk ARPS is definitely not the community you should be p...

I will be trying out Grizzly's recommendation for Crosstalk, it seems easily customizable and I always liked ear-specific channels in ACRE. Since the vanilla server doesn't run ACRE, I hope it's an acceptable clientside substitute!

Thank you for all the comments and clarifications! Regarding the ammo trucks and other squad vehicles, I think I left them behind because I wanted the elements on foot. Apparently, big mistake :P I agree with you on the 30 bullets > 1 smoke grenade, my point was only to increase ammo/grenade count b...

I was not aware of the limitations on which factions can have backpacks, that's a shame! Regarding the "spray and pray" comment, I would not disagree if it wasn't for two things: 1) Most people shoot only when given the order and permission. If they are shooting at enemies and "spray and praying", c...

Apart from FOLK's house rules on scopes, I would really like to see some different loadouts than the default ones on the infantry, for the longer missions. And before you think I will request HMGs for everyone, what I mean is: -More ammo -More smoke grenades -Backpacks for everyone? My request stems...

Hello comrades! So after taking on the CO role for the first time, I noticed one important problem that I struggled with and which I am sure made some people angry/disappointed: I am not very accustomed with the game's acronyms regarding enemy vehicles, and worse even, I am not sure what weapons/arm...

Zigzag Bravo 2 Automatic Rifleman Having predicted that OPFOR would use the classic "reverse reverse reverse reverse psychology" tactic, Bravo knew that the Alpha ambush would never happen and were watching the East and South-East for any enemy flanking. Soon enough, we were under fire, and Bravo 1...

My 2 cents 1) Avoid getting into a pilot slot without having any prior experience in flying. As much as it is okay to be relatively new to the game and join a fireteam as infantry and die gloriously with FOLK, it is quite frustrating for everyone (especially those being transported by you) if you ha...

Hello all, I am running a study on FPS games as part of my MSc. I am looking for avid FPS-gamers living in London to come to University College London (UCL, near Euston Square station) and take part in my study. The pay is £10 for an hour's worth of gaming! And also a chance to win a £50 Amazon vouc...
