Hvymtal 1251 Posted December 16, 2018 Absolutely, hence why we don't already have fully modeled and correctly portrayed versions of every armored fighting vehicle and variant and subvariant from 1945 to present :P Anyhow, I'm looking forwards to using the new stuff. I've had some ideas for some scenarios regarding the Yugoslav wars and intermediate-tech forces (think Project Reality "Militia") running on an ultra-lean mod setup to play with friends, and the new late CW gear will work great. I wouldn't be surprised if that PASGT setup starts appearing in Shacktac's Vietnam ensemble as well :D (all of these photos seem to be coming out around Christmas time... hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm) On another note, would there be any intent to add carrying handle optics rails to the M16A2? They were frequently used by at least US soldiers during the 90s and early noughts before flat-top receivers became common, and even early M16s had the ability to fit optics rails. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alwarren 2767 Posted December 16, 2018 9 hours ago, General Yudenich said: First of all, thank you very much for your work for the entire ARMA 3 community! The appearance in CUP MT-LB really made me think, why not move more Cold War-era content to ARMA 3? For example the Chiftein tank! It is very much lacking in ARMA 3! Most of this content is present in mods for ARMA 2 such as Project 85 Maybe because we are one Chieftain tank short of actually having a Chieftain tank? Yeah Project 85 was a good mod but for one thing, we would need permission to convert it to Arma 3, and most of all, we need the manpower. That is currently a bit problematic, seeing e.g how many tanks are not updated to the Tanks DLC yet. It's always nice to have more stuff, but it needs to come from somewhere. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jarrad96 1940 Posted December 16, 2018 @Hvymtal Carryhandle mounted optics (no flashlight/laser mounts, only on top of the carry handle, are indeed a thing for the dev version of the CUP M16A2. WIP faction mod I'm making one uses them. 6 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hvymtal 1251 Posted December 16, 2018 Considering the primary method of affixing lights, lasers, and such among grunts prior to picatinny rails was the use of duct tape liberated from the motor pool, I'm fine with just optics. I'd rather my LLMs be on straight xD Man this CUPdate is really shaping up to be something, huh :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hvymtal 1251 Posted December 19, 2018 The wait is killing me. I'm messing around with loadouts for my new scenarios (and just playing soldier Barbie in general) and knowing that all this new stuff that will complete the set is coming is slightly driving me bananas, those PASGT-Vs especially, and on top of Delta Hawk's helmets... I guess I could ask for the dev build on discord, but that feels like cheating since I absolutely do not have the time to playtest and bug hunt right now. GAAAAAAAAAAA!!!! By the way, whoever controls the CUP Team account should probably consider updating the front page. Judging by the description of CUP units it doesn't seem to have been touched since CUP's first release. Given the hopefully awesome and huge infantry gear, weapons, and factions update, it certainly wouldn't be a bad time to do so. 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hvymtal 1251 Posted December 20, 2018 @CUP the coincidence is fucking REAL P.S. Winter is coming.... Also, RIP RACS urban desert, Mech Inf, and weird-ass digital woodland, and of course old woodland. You are gone, but not forgotten Spoiler Srsly could urban desert, mech inf, and old woodland make a reappearance at some point, just for the sake of variety? 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CUP 1532 Posted December 21, 2018 Even though it's still three days to go some presents can be opened early this year. And what is in these presents is a CUPdate of all our packs. And looking at the size of the changelog it seems to be our biggest update so far. As usual this update not only brings new stuff (and old stuff ported and upgraded from other places in the Armaverse) but also improvements on units, vehicles, weapons and units with new textures, models, animations and bugfixes. You can read about all new stuff and improvements in the changelog for every package. We updated our website with the 1.11 GoogleDrive and Torrent mirrors. An update to Steam Workshop will be pushed slightly delayed by a few hours to give groups, squads and server admins some time to update their mods. https://imgur.com/a/w8IxmJV 11 7 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wiki 1558 Posted December 21, 2018 This is definitely a great addon, kudos to all !!! Finally, we have actual black paint for the chopper, we can make the 160th SOAR !!! A few things thoug (Yeah, I know, I'm never satisfied ahah) - On the MH47E, would it be possible to add the option to close, level and open the ramp? - Nice addition for the HK416. About the optics, will you add EOTech + Magnifier later? (I know, I've read too many time "No Easy Day") - With the F-35, when there is no gun pod mounted, there is no "master arm safe" option. Hence, the bay is always opened. Can this be fixed? - Also, on the F-35, the external view is perfect. The internal view, however, is really to close: This is is "zoom out" view - which IMHO should be the "standard" view Anyway, still congrats again for this release!!! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
