A3 default launcher

Recommended Posts

I've recently started playing ARMA after a long time out (other games, life, yadda yadda). One thing I really liked seeing is the new ARMA launcher however are the BI devs able to include a server browser to go with it? The reason I'm asking is because you don't fully identify what mods are required for most MP servers until you're in the server browser. Once you've identified it, you then have to exit ARMA, load it up via parameters, etc then jump back in. 

 

If we had a browser that was part of the actual launcher (similar to a lot of other A3 launchers), we could identify the required mods then load up A3, find the server and join. Even better if you could jump straight into the server. 

 

Either way, we need a better system of managing mods or making it easier to join MP servers. Yes I know we have Six Player, but it doesn't always give you every mod required...and its quite slow.

Joining public servers = playing Arma wrong. :)

Jokes aside, I've read in some of the Spotreps (Techreps? Somethingreps?) that BI aims to somehow improve server-joining experience in upcoming expansion but they didn't share much details.

yeah I know - I'm a member of two online ARMA squads, however they only really play on weekends...during the week I like to join public servers, which is where the problem lies. I'm really hoping they improve the current A3 launcher as its quite good.

Yes, we do plan some improvements in this area. More details should be available soonâ„¢ ;)
