getting killed horribly is ALWAYS enjoyable

Especially once we'd solved our communications problems. It added to the sheer absurdity of war when for the first 15 minutes we could hear you going, "Can you hear me, guys?", but you couldn't hear us. :p Anyway, once that problem was solved, I was as amazed as always that the game actually works reasonably well with people who have pings just below 500.

And we're returning to Altis for some more hot and cold warfare. Join us in the trenches next week!
Date: Saturday, 27 May 2017
Time: 4-6pm UK time
Game: Arma 3Things to note:
* Please note that
we're switching to Mumble of voice chat. Bring a headset and make sure to install the Mumble client. Login details (courtesy of Malf) can be found on the Steam page (see below) under Discussions.
* No mods required, but for quality of life I'd very much recommend Shacktac UI and CBA_A3 (the latter is required for the former to run). Easiest way to add them is using the Steam Workshop. Any client-side mod should be fine, really.
* I'll be online a bit before 4pm to set up the server and check who's on Steam, and I'll launch a server shortly before the session. I'll post the IP and password on the Steam group ((
http://steamcommunity.com/groups/ArmaTTLG)) under Events.
Hoping to see you there!

A thing of beauty, just like the session. :cheeky:
Thanks to henke, Jeshibu, Malf, Piglick and special guest Lord Penney! Two successful mission, and one kinda messy one, though that assault on the respawn point was definitely intense.

Here's some highlights from that third mission. :)

Love that video - it captures the cheerfully bumbling atmosphere of our best/worst moments in the mission.
I'll have to check out if we can actually save and reload in those long missions (I know the function is there in theory, but I don't know how well it works in practice), so we can perhaps spread those missions over two sessions. That way we could restart the Sigma Quadrant missions and *not*... how did Piglick put it? ... deny vital resources to the enemy (AKA blow up our own, mission-critical truck).

This is just a heads-up to let people know that the next Arma 3 session will be on Saturday 17 June. I'll post the details once we're closer to the date, and I'll send a round of Steam messages to catch those who aren't on the forums on a regular basis.

Good VR co-opping in Rec Room tonight! First we played a couple rounds of Disc Golf, then we went on a Quest with a guy called Gerard, and after that we fought robots on a spaceship!
Here's the second bit.

(annoyingly the recordning did not pick up my Rift mic)

Yeah, really enjoyed that. Definitely looking forward to more VR shenanigans.
