Heart 24 Posted June 9, 2018 Many have first-handedly felt the pain getting through checkpoint alpha, the struggle manning it and just "It" In general. Cpa is just a cess pool of pure garbage. From snipers on the surrounding mountains, roadblock spam and retardation surrounding the checkpoint in general I feel I have the perfect solution. If the TLX community encourages the leaders to have these following additions to cpa it would be much better. Add a canvas roof or hanger style roof overhead of the checkpoint. This would lower the chances of you getting you head shot off. Add more tank traps, cement dividers and hesco barriers. This would in theory slow incoming traffic down and create a more (calm) cpa. Make the checkpoint more valuable. If more important activities were centered around cpa than there would be more people traveling In between creating interesting scenarios Be sure to leave a thumbs up and a comment. I am free to help anyone who has a question.

Mez 186 Posted June 9, 2018 Checkpoint Alpha is the most important checkpoint in the game and you can buy the camo nets and other items from shops but most people are too lazy to stupid to use them. To deal with snipers just buy thr camo net or get someone to scan the mountains by CPA. This checkpoint never had any problems before but all of a sudden it's the worst thing to exist? 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've spent like 10 minutes looking for the interaction menu with them, resetting TLX keys and all and they are un-interactable, so it would be nice if they were added to CPA by default. Also maybe add a fortification shop to CPA so we don't have to back and forth since OPFOR base is so far from CPA? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
S.Russo 24 Posted June 9, 2018 CPA isn't that hard to man. If you don't check the hills that's your problem. It's made like this so you have action. What's the point of manning a checkpoint if you have an extremely small chance of conflict. I've manned CPA countless times and for an hour or so at a time and although I will admit it is hectic as fuck and quite annoying to deal with indeps so much, it's what makes the server enjoyable, the unknown factor of enemy contact. If you're on your toes at all time and have a 4 buddies then the chances of you getting killed by indeps is very low Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
S.Russo 24 Posted June 9, 2018 (edited) and if it gets too hectic just request blufor to come and help. 90% of the time opfor has asked while I was there, blufor came without a second thought Edited June 9, 2018 by S.Russo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You can't spam camo nets because vehicles cant drive through them, but I have found placing lots of bunkers are more effective giving you hard cover from snipers and explosives, 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Alec 2 Posted June 18, 2018 As said above fortifications can be bought at base and moved to alpha. I strongly encourage this! Bringing a fire team of Ai and an armored vehicle will give you more chances of success. I do agree we need to draw civs to the south to make our presence at alpha more of a “check passports” day instead of independent slaughter Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lt. Col. Stryder 23 Posted June 19, 2018 +1 Please add these... A lot of indeps will say no to this because they only play indep and do not want to get countered. This is such a good idea and needs to be implemented... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You can not use camo nets in Opfor, they're bugged and you can not move them or place them. You can also see through the camo nets unless you spam 50. You also can not really place them on the road cause well, you'll be blocking it and they'll be waiting for it. And people casually accidentally running it over. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Abdullah Al Arganeen 79 Posted June 19, 2018 I think 1 hangar would be reasonable, or at least some more cover for guys that are there, as they only can hide inside OPF building nearby no-mans-land, a white house at south and maybe inside those small green sheds that have giant windows, but its not a good cover Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mohamemd Von Bjorn 27 Posted June 19, 2018 I'll start by saying '' Get Gud ''. When you go to CPA and you dont check your surronding, knowing their's indep online, it's all on you. When you're Blu4 or Op4, and you don't check your surronding near key points (like Checkpoints, Capzones and Shops) you will be in danger, both from indep and angry civs. You are Cops and Soldier in a warzone. Use your eyes and all the equipments at your disposition. Check, Look, scan, patrol. Im playing mostly indep, and i encourage people going at CPA and Fortifying it, we're just going to show you what poor peple with AKs can do. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mr.Pickle 12 Posted June 19, 2018 There are not drive trough hangers in Arma 2, what I believe most people in this discussion are talking about is the big green hangers from Arma 3 that only have two side and you can drive straight through. Unfortunately these are not in Arma and there inst anything I can think of that people would be able to drive trough. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
