Vehicles despawn

Pendereckii · 10-25-2011, 11:40 PM

Just a little feedback about the vehicles despawn.
I think the system probably have to be checked out. Actually if you leave a vehicle somewhere on the map and start moving away it will despawn after what ... 5 min ?

It would be interesting to be able to hide a ride somewhere before a "danger zone" go check it out with infantry and then return to the ride for a new location...
It would be also interesting to be able to do "rescue missions" for abandoned vehicles (Logi trucks, jeep loaded with crates, etc...)
Pretty frustrating to head back to the Logi you parked 10 min ago, with 2 FOB crates loaded and realise he despawned... leaving you with only the boxes and no way to move them around.

Anyway that's not a top priority but I don't think someone already pointed this out.

If you weren't alone, you could leave someone with the vehicle(s) while the rest do the recon...

That ^^

The rationale behind the vehicle despawn is quite obvious.

Also, whilst vehicle recovery tasks might look attractive to some, it does risk turning PR:ArmA2 into PR:Sims. Too many people dedicating their time to non-combat tasks such as logistics, moving crates around bases, building fancy castles out of Hesco etc, means less people actually fighting for objectives. God help us if we introduced human civilians, and maybe a tractor or two ....

You just have to taking care of your vehicles in similar way like it is in real live.
