Island with biggest mountains, canyons etc.

Recommended Posts

UPDATE: Allright, Im now looking for islands in general that 1) are good for dogfighting, meaning they should have multiple mountains and canyons, and 2) decent perfomance, so that I can play with large view distances

Clafghan was perfect, are there similar islands?

................................................................

Original question:

Hi!

Im a bit overwhelmed by all the maps released for ArmA 2 and OA. No way I can download them all to check them out. So I ask for your help: Which map has the highest / biggest mountains? Im looking for canyons, deep valleys and crevices.

It should have a bit of plants and buildings, so no simple "terrain", like Rockets Aoraki/Mount Cook Island.

Thanks in advance!

Some large terrains for dogfighting:

Kunar Province (similar to CLAfghan, far less clutter)

Esbekistan (an excellent terrain with fantastic scenery in general, but too much clutter at airfields IMO)

Sands (very austere desert map with a few basic airfields)

Waves (a large map with several small islands, little to no clutter, comes packaged with Gnat's frigates and naval weapons)

dbo Afghanistan (very large map, three versions with varying levels of clutter)

PMC Desert (the big boy, 51km, very simplistic scenery, but fine for dogfighting)

PMC Rattler (same as Desert, but 25km)

Wow thanks for making such an extensive answer!

A bit offtopic but: WTF is the deal with ArmA and the Su-27 family? Its like that plane is cursed! There are like five different versions out, all beautiful, but every single one also has like one tiny aspect that makes them unusable.

There is the Su-33 by Gnat, which is actually perfect, but unfortunately it suffers a bit from being an OFP port.

There is the Su-33 by Naoyuki, which has an amazingly detailed model....But no cockpit.

Then there is the Su-27 by citizensnip. Very nice model too, very nice cockpit, no bugs....But also no weapons. Not even a gun.

There is the Su-30 by Aushilfe, which, although an ArmA 1 release, has an equally beautiful model. It even has a nice cockpit and little details like working and animated Thrust-Vectoring, or an animated radarscreen, or a working MFD that actually displays which missiles you fired. But in ArmA II it has this big white "FUCK YOU"-box right inside your face: http://s1.directupload.net/images/130922/nsr7abqi.jpg

And now the Su-30 by deanosbeano. Nice model yadda yadda, cockpit, weapons its all there....But only works in Take on Helicopters.

Im NOT critizising the addon makers, hey I know you all have more important things to do, and sometimes hobby and real life collide. Its just funny that like five different people started working on the same plane, did all an equally great job, but before they could enter the final line of code the "Dark God of Sukhoi", who apparently suffers no addons created in his image, struck them with lightning :D
