Arma 3: Confirmed features | info & discussion

[antoineflemming 14]

I have to disappoint You because there is no Raven PMC faction hidden in game data, it's just the mod. The only thing available in game data is the cap with some raven logo :icon_twisted:

Raven is Greek, though, isn't it? The camo looks like the A3 Greek camo.

Please, Bohemia, make good optimization for this game!

Well that sucks, I must have misunderstood his post. I was getting excited...

[Polenar 10]

Dont know about the Barrett M95

[kilroy the nerd 14]

At about 5:24, what is that launcher? It is not an NLAW nor the RPG-32 Alamut, and it's not a Javelin either judging by the hexagonal shape.

[johncage 30]

No, but it makes sense from a commercial point of view.

didn't know you worked for bis

Good eye - looks like a fictional METIS-type system for Bluefor, possibly with FLIR sights. Doesn't exclude Javelin-like top/overhead mode, which could be toggleable.

Based on Vespa's earlier comments about prioritizing and even dropping or not implementing features, along with Jay, Ivan and other devs' own E3-and-Gamescom-period public comments and explanations...

I get the sense that the devs want Arma 3 to get a 'proper' development this time instead of what Arma and Arma 2 got, that they had/have an internal list of development priorities (with the aforementioned comments and explanations hinting at where certain 'features' are on that list)... and that fast-roping was most likely always low priority, even if it wasn't difficult to integrate and implement.

isn't it possible to just copy paste this shit over?:

hopefully the rudimentary system is in place even if they don't utilize it.

[nodunit 397]

Not really, for one TKOH didn't use phsyX, Arma 3 does and as such the two need to be tweaked to work together so that they don't inevitably clash, if both are implemented to begin with.

[NeuroFunker 11]

can't wait for at least some content expansion. Some of new weaps, new faction at least, some of vehicles. It gets slowly but surely boring already.

[scrim 1]

Yeah. I really think they should add a single APC. I know, they want to focus on infantry and what not, but really, I've just about had it up to here only flying/walking around everywhere. Adding just one APC with just a machine gun would hardly wipe out all the infantry gameplay. There's pretty much no way this will be viable until summer, with the exception of some new rifles and sights.

[CyberZ_DK 1]

will there be some bunkers where you can go in and clean out it and water caves with base ? and will like to also glide from helicopters.

[chortles 263]

Ya know, scrim, there is the Hunter and the Ifrit if you need a ride on land, with both HMG and GMG variants... ;)

[NeuroFunker 11]

this are armored cars, apc is more like LAV or BMP/BTR.

[zimms 22]

I know of at least one underwater cave on Stratis for now.

Yeah, like Neuro said. I mean, nothing wrong with the cars, but when you're in a rapidly expanding clan and feel you don't want to be inserted and extraced via helicopter for the twentieth time in a row, using cars doesn't work well because either you assign a crew to them, or you leave them behind and go back for them, because there's only room for 4 guys in it. Now, some proper ground transport, i.e. an APC like the one you see in Dslyecxi's Arma 3 info video shortly after the 4 minute mark, that is something that a bunch of guys could ride in, and you could assign a crew to it.

[jchika85 1]

Your need add AUG-77, as CS, great weapon)

[sig 10]

Will you be able to get weapons we all know like M4, SCAR, SAW, G36 and others?

[StreetUp 1]

CS good choice

[TheSurvived 1]

Awesome, cant wait to play Arma III :)

[Maio 293]

Look what I found in the air_f.pbo after the new update :)

[onlyrazor 11]

I wonder if T6 stands for anything important.

[Maio 293]

I wonder if T6 stands for anything important.

Not sure what T6 stands for, but if you check the texture file, you can see that the tail section has an angular surface. Also the exhausts are shaped similar to the ones from the StealthHawk concept drawings so my guess is that we are getting the Stealthhawk ( that or I'm seeing things)

[papanowel 120]

I was thinking about it too, would be a nice addition into the game and an awesome gift from Bis.

[Smurf 12]

Why not? Would be a really nice addition.
