Tyl3r99 41 Posted August 5, 2013 (edited) what types of downloadable content would you guys vote for. hopefully give BI some sort of idea what the community are after :) for example. - DLC's like BAF, PMC etc... (not suggesting remakes - just examples) - DLC's like vanilla campaigns, more missions, more units (tanks, air, infantry - so smaller more frequent DLC content) - DLC's that are feature based (community wishes) - OR COMMENT BELOW IF YOU WANT BIG OL' EXPANSIONS LIKE ARROWHEAD :D so go ahead and vote Edited August 5, 2013 by tyl3r99 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nmdanny 22 Posted August 6, 2013 An expansion pack based on naval warfare or aerial warfare Features such as bipods shouldn't cost money, they should be included in a free update Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
liquidpinky 11 Posted August 6, 2013 Although I voted for DLC akin to BAF and PMC, I would hope they would introduce new, improved or community requested features while releasing it in the form of Lite versions of the DLC so all can benefit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tyl3r99 41 Posted August 6, 2013 keep the votes coming :) and pinky I think its a multiple choice poll :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maddogx 13 Posted August 6, 2013 I don't think feature based DLC would be viable, at least in the majority of cases. With content DLC like BAF and PMC they have always included low quality versions in the base game to maintain MP compatibility. This isn't really possible with engine features.

lao fei mao 21 Posted August 6, 2013 I bet there will be a PLA DLC, cause in the latest interview video(PCGame.de), I noticed a type95 rifle in the room, so I guess it must be used for 3D model reference and anims capture Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cjph 0 Posted August 6, 2013 Can I be greedy and ask for everything ? Seems like most of my Arma1 and 2 time was/is spent on maps and games which are a combination of all of them and I find it hard to pick just 1 or 2. cj Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tyl3r99 41 Posted August 6, 2013 a selection of MAP DLC would be very cool actually :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

doln 10 Posted August 6, 2013 I bet there will be a PLA DLC, cause in the latest interview video(PCGame.de), I noticed a type95 rifle in the room, so I guess it must be used for 3D model reference and anims capture The type95 is ergonomically quite similar to a KH2002 (Katiba) so they probably just used that.

Wiki 1558 Posted August 6, 2013 - DLC's like BAF, PMC etc... (not suggesting remakes - just examples) - DLC's like vanilla campaigns, more missions, more units (tanks, air, infantry - so smaller more frequent DLC content) A mix of these. I'd like to see a French Army DLC ( as I dunno whether OFrP will be on ArmA 3 or not...) and another DLC about modern/current vehicles/gears/weapons etc... And of course, some SP missions and a campaign for each DLC. BTW, is BIS helping kju for AiA? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fragmachine 12 Posted August 6, 2013 Easy one. Feature-based DLCs OFC. Community is really neat in modding armies, vehicles, islands etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
comp_uter15776 1 Posted August 6, 2013 I'd like to see all of it... I just have visions of a sh!t tonne of vehicles and infantry roles all battling it out in a massive expanse of land. Like, 200vs200 minimum :D I can dream :( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

petek 62 Posted August 6, 2013 ArmA1/2 backwards compatibility DLC. Fixed versions of all that content. This! When the campaign plot originally had an arms dealer character I had a dream they would have a stock-pile of old weapons and vehicles that would comprise of this....... ahhhh Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kylania 567 Posted August 6, 2013 Do what Advanced Squad Leader did, each expansion was a full order of battle. Instead of getting BAF without things like MBTs because it didn't match the story of the DLC sell us "The British Army", complete with all the units and vehicles and weapons we expect from a major side/faction. Maybe have a showcase or whatever or even one or two SP missions, but the toys is what it's all about. This would match their "sandbox" vision for ArmA now. Maybe have smaller ones too like Civilians or Terrorists or Ambient kind of packs. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
comp_uter15776 1 Posted August 6, 2013 Further agree w/ kylania here. It's just the thought of being able to plonk down whatever units I'd like, (brits all the way!) so I wouldn't have to be stuck with "only that SDV" or the "only helo" in such and such a faction... With several units one can just pick n' mix :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
simon1279 51 Posted August 6, 2013 a selection of MAP DLC would be very cool actually :) let the community making maps in some cases they're even better than BIS ones (no offense BIS), and absolutely for free, this is another thing that makes arma games unique and great Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bee8190 10 Posted August 6, 2013 Obviously I'd like to see more content and will be happy to pay for DLC as long as it's nothing like ACR. What I'd hope for though, is expansion like AO was but even more focused on pushing the engine limits away. There's massive pool of features that the community has been asking for ages...

kilroy the nerd 14 Posted August 6, 2013 I would like a big ol' OA style expansion with US/ANZAC/SK/Japan fighting the Chinese expansionists mentioned in storyline. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Masharra 10 Posted August 6, 2013 It is my dream that they would go around doing content for countries. 1 map for germany 1 map for spain etc etc and the corresponding countries army+ weapons. That way I can get my mission making on :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
