dmarkwick 261 Posted January 30, 2011 European maps are my favourite. But, Europe is a very dense environment, perhaps some area like the Russia/China borderlands? In fact that scenario might be quite good, Russia vs China, I think we're all filled out with western content :) So, a Russia vs China scenario, with possible western units in "peacekeeping" roles to keep the online active, and it gives BIS a good excuse to lose the "4-sides" (Blufor, Opfor, Resistance + Civilian) paradigm and move into user-made per-mission factions/sides.

savedbygrace 2 Posted January 30, 2011 I'd like to see another expansion pack compatible with Arma2 that not only improves features in Arma2 and OA but introduces new ones like...swimming under water. Introduce more animations for climbing out of water and onto banks, rocks or boats. Climbing over walls, ledges or other medium sized obstacles. Animations for sliding feet first on your hip toward cover but remaining in squat stance similar to Americas Army 3. The South American Jungle with winding rivers and waterfalls sounds awesome. Of course the same terrain could be universal to Southeast Asia. I'd like to see The French Foreign Legion come into play as well as some African or South American Pirates. We could use some more water battles with various vessels to accompany them. And to put icing on the cake, Sharks, Dolphins, Whales, schools of fish(piranha included), Boa Constrictors, Pythons, Poisonous Spiders, Gorillas, Monkeys, Tigers. Essentially Mammals and Reptiles that actually pose a threat to players rather than just an obstacle. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CoD style mission editor not hurts, downloading free addons not hurt download addons, make 50 custom SP missions instead "new expansion need" mission editor really is not big problem, instead new expansion, we can have hundreds of missions like OFP era , just wake up creativity (which was OFP flag and OFP soil for nearly 10 years, even RTCW had huge modding , missionmaking scene ) IceBreaker makes islands, Old Bear makes islands, just take addons and make 50 SP mission for it :) I couldn't have said it any better, vilas. :) I enjoy great new content almost every day, thanks to a great community. Isn't there a sticky for DLC suggestions anyways? Seems to be a new 'I want this' topic every day, with the same replies, from the same people, asking for the same thing they asked for two days ago. Not trying to sound like an ass, I do like some of the suggestions... some of you do have good ideas. But like vilas said, explore what's already available and you might be surprised. Anyways, whatever BIS does, they will get my support. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How about destructible buildings? Ummmmmm :D Fancy tearing a hole on the wall with that 7.62 mm? or that M107? Bang! Blood splattered . . .;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Beagle 684 Posted January 30, 2011 A fictive african area with a large map in the 40x40km class featuring savannah,, mountain, desert and some dense forrest areas with soem dividing streams or deltas, with the usual wild mix of western and russian Forces against a undefined opfor using a even wilder mix of all available equipment...you could even throw in some high tech contractors (south african, british, US, russian) on both sides with a lot of blood diamonds in the middle of it.

ryguy 10 Posted January 30, 2011 When BIS makes add-ons they make it to the level of detail that community add-ons rarely reach. I always prefer using BIS vanilla stuff than having to mess with something like ACE and other third-party stuff. And ignoring that, there is a global level of support when they release add-ons, because everyone who owns the game automatically has to download it in the newest patch. Their offices have multiple sections, too. The company can make add-ons and fix bugs, haven't you ever thought about that. Honestly, think about the change from Arma 2 1.0 to Arma2 1.6 and how many things were fixed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Flash Thunder 10 Posted January 30, 2011 I would like to see a snow map as well. With a redone weather system, really realistic snow particle system, That would look so beautiful and perhaps an improved lighting engine. Content wise somthing like 1 island, 100km + 2 factions Updated Opfor and New US Navy seals features: Weapon assembly animations New AI behavior for clearing buildings and stacking New Intuitive Squad Radial wheel for ordering faster orders Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
