Army of the Czech Republic DLC

Recommended Posts

I'm guessing all of Cherno plus across the river. We've seen several places from Cherno in pictures (Main Airfield, Stary, Ruined Village, Elekro) that I feel like it would be the entire island plus the river and what's beyond the river.

I really hope so, but I worry we're going to get the southern part of Cherno only, maybe only as far north as the Sobors, plus the new bit across the river.

Whenever 1.61 patch comes out is the release date. Meaning - infinity.

Well...1.61 RC1 out today. Which means hopefully within a few weeks we'll have a 1.61 final. Maybe ACR is coming out sooner rather than later?

I hope the new dogs will hopefully open up new behaviour for animals so we can have them follow us like pack animals. Cant wait for it to come out though for all the other things as well. (going to go on a hike/ drive/flight in the new maps as soon as they come out)

Editor view of the (three, well) "new" islands:

Takistan (cut-out):

Bukovina:

Bystrica:

(low quality textures of course, like the rest of the ACR DLC which is also part as light variant in 1.61RC1)

I think its kind of stupid how I'm being stripped of content I paid for in Arrowhead, no more UN faction?

Also I was expecting new maps not slight edits of Chernarus.

You complained about that now here and here.

By now we know it, there's no need to violate forum rules which clearly say:

§9) Do not cross-post

Do not post duplicate threads in more than one forum simply to get an answer quicker or to draw more attention to your post.

Get over it, no one forced you to download the 1.61 Release candidate. If that is so important for you, go back to 1.60 and wait for the final 1.61 patch.

Do you read before you post?

1. I've only made 1 thread which has been now locked, I fail to see how this is making duplicates.

2. I've only complained twice, your second hyperlink is just me asking for them to include a Exclude option in the server filters menu.

I fail to see how waiting is going to get my stripped content back, when this is a release candidate not a beta.

Installed 1.61RC1

Checked out the "new" maps.

There's gotta be a joke somewhere.

Everybody knew the "new" maps were Chernarus parts... so not sure why you are so surprised.

I didn't know. And even then why is it 2 times smaller than original Chernarus?

Save for the southern coastline it's just a reskin. Why not full Chernarus considering only textures and tree models were replaced? It makes no sense.

Well the town featured in several of the pictures was clearly Elektro and mentioned many times in this thread. Doesn't really matter though I guess. It looks like I was wrong and I was hoping to be right this one time. Where's the railroad track bridge at that goes across the main river? Maybe thats why those are lite maps. Maybe the full Chernarus will be in the actual DLC... yeah that's got to be it right? That's what's going to happen... and everything will be better *curls up into ball in the corner and rocks back and forth*. I'll be happy with whatever I get I'm sure.

Lets wait, Saharani was cut in two too. Maybe its the same deal with chenarus.

Has anyone stated the Map sizes for Bystrica and Bukovina ?

I know they are based on Chernarus but I would like to know how, split into the two republics?

I've proberbly just answered my own question :eek:

SEARCH :Bystrica Bukovina map size and variations gave no joy.

Thanks for any answer.

check out the RC in beta section of arma2 forum. you get low texture versions of these maps to explore.

edit - damn i am slow. yes it is common knowledge. sorry.

Ok, but one thing I didn't yet understand.

BIS are going to make the CZ units from Arrowhead blurry if you don't have the CZ DLC?? Or what?

If yes then I just don't get it because in that case I would have to buy those units TWICE to have them in good quality. Or am I missing something? :confused:

Yep, that's a good question indeed.

2nd time i agree with you today. hopefully full version has more. that part south of vybor is one of my favourite areas in chrenasus.

@Undeceived:

Again, those woodland ACR units are completely NEW models. Not just a reskin of currently released from OA.

I think he is talking about the ACR units which were in OA. Those models are replaced with the ACR DLC models now and therefore they have blurry textures now if you don't have the ACR DLC.

Example:

http://www.abload.de/img/arma2oa_2012_07_14_00qjzjk.jpg

For example the model for CZ_Soldier_DES_EP1 was

model = "\CA\characters_E\ACR\acr_soldier";

before now it is

model = "\Ca\Characters_ACR\acr_dst_soldier";

Ok, that's great. But if they are different models - why do the Arrowhead-ones get blurry then? Just asking. Because in that case I would have to pay twice to continue playing with the Arrowhead-ones in HD quality. Or is there a misunderstanding? If not then this is pretty disappointing.

I can understand that it makes sense to remove the simple OA units for the newer, better and manifold DLC units. But what if someone isn't planning to buy the DLC (because of whatever reasons)? Then virtually he is punished for not buying the DLC which isn't really a customer-friendly move!

if the cut out takistan map is for this ARC DLC. Why did they need to make it? From what it seems is that its exactly the same.

We already have the Takistan map. and it was bigger.

Unless its a way for people who didn't buy OA to play on the Takistan map. (But that's stupid because ACR requires Combined Operations to work)

So I don't see why they have done the cutout Takistan map.

This DLC is questionable indeed. Saying that I can live with the lack of new maps if BIS will reconsider and make a full summer Chernarus not a 2 times smaller cutout.

Why have same stuff but smaller if BIS already has the original map finished and it's great. It isn't like it needs some horrible remodeling when geodata is still the same

Not really happy with this dlc, definately not going to buy it...

Units are okay, but new maps are just Chernarus copy-past, but in unplayable for MP form - small.

Also, units are full of bugs, islands too.

Some ACR weapons have wrong sounds... worst BIS DLC for now.

Its only WIP, so let's hope everything will be better in Final Release!
