Good to see BIS getting work from you guys, his AK-74M is probably the best one I've seen.

[Kaxii 11]

How do you know it is his?

It certainly looks amazing, but is it as of yet available in a mod or is it just a model for now?

Comparing the two, the DayZ one is a new texture and some changes but it's made by the same artist

and

either it's the same artist or they have incredibly similar styles, but I'm leaning to the same as the bolts and markings are the same

[Kaxii 11]

Hmmm I doubt it is the same, otherwise as they haven't officially said it is his then they would be stealing his work which I highly doubt Bohemia would do. And they would look the same (same markings etc) as they are meant to look like the same gun so any high qaulity 3d model should look the same as another as high qaulity = close replica.

It is the same person who did both (the one for RHS an DAYz)

Nah, they're the same. You can tell from texture details like using the exact same shape and position of wear and tear and other surface markings on the GP-25. Chances of 2 separate artists doing that is almost nil even if they were designing the same basic weapon.

BIS do employ members of the community to work as external artists (or internal artists) on their projects, quite often - It's nothing new, and BIS do compensate them for their contribution (i.e. not stealing ;)).

Yep that was what I was going on, glad I'm not losing my mind

I was wondering, are there any plans about how this mod is gonna be released? I mean, are you gonna release a first pack with infantry and some basic vehicles and then bit by bit adding new stuff, or is gonna be all in a big entry?

Are you gonna port all A2 stuff?

If you can achieve the same level as the previous version is gonna be probably one of the top mods, if you can improve it...

[Damian90 696]

Well I hope that at some point RHS mod will add T-64 tanks. :)

I remember playing with their T-64's in OFP, it would be nice to have accurate models of these fascinating tanks for ArmA3. :)

We honestly don't know exactly what will be released for 1st release yet and we wouldn't wanna spoil the fun now ;)

But there might be more content than any previous release :P

That's gonna be awesome! A proper NATO side. I CAN't wait for tomorrow's announcement ( I'm hyped ).

Could it be a first pack with the infantry? :o

[Rages123 10]

sounds really good!

[king homer 1]

Sweet! Can't wait for this to be released!

[tachi 10]

Where is the promised announcement?

[mistyronin 1181]

Where is the promised announcement?

17h ago they said in their Facebook page that they "are putting the final touches on tomorrow's announcement".

[serjames 357]

Will they be ALiVE compatible... I'm really hoping to get an east vs west Map up and running :) But NEED a proper armoury, not just troops. RHS vehicles were cracking models so really looking forward to it.

Hello everyone! Today we would like to formally announce our latest project at Red Hammer Studios: United States Armed Forces.

Spurred on by a need of a comparable opposing force for our Russian faction and a fondness for the Operation Flashpoint-style East vs. West scenario, we have been working for months on a modern US faction that matches the same quality standards set by our Russian forces. Keep an eye out here at BIS, or at our Facebook page for further updates that are right around the corner.

Yes and no--they are a mix of Alex's unreleased work and some new gear. We'll be showing more of this as we go along as we refine and replace older work.
