Well we seen that sight (Leupold HAMR) in the videos before :)

Thanks a lot for pointing out Robert :)

That's some snazzy Rainbow 6 stuff going on in those screens - love the animations/stances. Couldn't get more interesting than this, hope Beagle & Kilroy are present.

;)

But then they'd all be highest-priced. :p But still, it makes sense to me -- after all, presumably all of the discs would have to be "gold", meaning based on the feedback and developments from alpha and beta.

I don't understand the point in having Digital Deluxe Edition? It offers a few gimmicks and OFP - and it's just cheaper to get it separately if you still for some reason haven't.

Should've included some better offer because it's either Alpha for 25 euros or Supporter for 70 that make any sense.

The answer is simple: For some people, "the shiny" (the gimmicks) is enough to justify the extra $20-or-so... as the Steamworks reveal should have revealed, BI wants their money too. :p

I'm very happy to see they allow modding in the Alpha. Don't know whether we should expect proper modding support like documentation and samples etc. already too, but atleast we can go explore ourselves. Unless the PBOs and other files are locked just like the ones from the DLCs. We'll see soon enough.

Thanks BIS!

So we can play Alpha on the 5th. Can we download it ealier as it was with TOH?

For those of you who fell in love at first sight with the Ansyr Ifrit like I did, I cut her out and pretted her up a little. :D

It's named the 'Ifrit'.

We'll not go in to how much trouble naming this one bloody vehicle has caused. :D Suffice to say, it's a bit of a beast, and I'm glad you like it!

Best,

MadDogx that's very nice. Any chance I can get an avatar seized image of Scott Miller? This one I just want his face though. Please.:p

I'd love one of those with a road permit, but if I'd try that in Germany I'd probably get shot immediately :D

How dare You to even mention that? I was wearing tin-foil-hat during the whole process, it was the only way to keep the rests of my sanity (probably without any success) :icon_twisted:

Is that one an invention, or does it exist? I suppose this one was the inspiration? Anyway, I agree with MadDogX, it looks great.

[chrisb 196]

Seem to be asking this everywhere, is there going to be a full Mission Editor in these first releases, it just states the Scenario editor on the website in the Supporters Edition, anyone know ?

[purepassion 22]

It's named the 'Ifrit'.

For anyone wondering, "Ifrit" is a creature in arabic culture known for their strength and cunning.

Usual weapons are said to don't have any effect on them. :)

That's quite spot-on for a M-RAP!

Fully expecting this scenario:

Am I the only one who thinks it looks ugly? I mean, it doesn't bother me because 1) I'm a BLUFOR player and 2) I was going to request that BLUFOR be given the M-ATV anyway, so that's good.
