burkhar 47 Posted May 5, 2014 (edited) EDIT: Hot news: Incoming completely new True Story for Arma 3! Arma 2 version will be frozen for a while. More info soon. TRUE STORY of Infection Check True Story website for full info! by burkhar ver 0.2 (WIP) pre-alpha test stage actually Utes for testing purposes Chernarus will be used after basic functionality will be properly tested Hello everyone! I am currently developing MP mission which would interest you and which you would enjoy. I humbly think it would be very original piece if I will succeed and finish it to publicable state. If you are interested in testing I run the mission on my own computer dedicated server so read further to read the details and don't hesitate to give it a try. It's early development stage, so don't expect too much. Now I run separate dedicated server, so you are more then welcome to try it out end test. I'm looking forward any feedback (negative will be appreciated more because it would make the mission better). Please report all bugs, unpredictable behaviour and your remarks via PM. Thanks for you attention!
