Persian MO 82 Posted October 22, 2016 (edited) Arma 3 roadmap 2016-2017 sounds good. somebody can explain whats means 'ORANGE' DLC Quote This year, we opened a new studio in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. With the goal of gradually building up experience, work has started on a small project, codenamed 'Orange'. While the exact direction isn't final, we're very much interested in exploring an interesting and unique perspective on the battlefield. It’s shaping up to be a valuable, innovative addition to the platform! what is that? Edited May 19, 2017 by Maio Because I can ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
suds420 179 Posted October 22, 2016 I'm guessing they are using "Orange" as a code name because it looks like their new studio in The Netherlands is developing it and orange is the color of the Dutch Royal Family, House of Orange-Nassau. Fun fact, that is also why orange carrots exist. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Harzach 2517 Posted October 22, 2016 The announcement clearly states that "Orange" is a codename. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
xxgetbuck123 945 Posted October 22, 2016 I doubt it will be a Netherlands faction, since theoretically that should all be covered under NATO in Arma 3 standards. Agent Orange was the first thing I thought of? So maybe more air burst style munitions? Fuel air bombs etc? Chemicals? haha I dunno Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted October 22, 2016 The link between Netherlands and orange make me think that this codename is only related to the Amsterdam Studio, and doesn't give any information about the actual content of this DLC. I don't think it will be about agent Orange/chemicals... --EDIT : do the devs even know what it will be? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
haleks 8212 Posted October 22, 2016 Yeah they do. My wild guess : naval stuff. With Malden (yet another island, and a small one) coming to Arma3, it would make a nice combo... Although that bit : "interesting and unique perspective on the battlefield" makes me think I'm probably wrong. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rydygier 1309 Posted October 22, 2016 "interesting and unique perspective on the battlefield" Frankly this sounds potentially promising to me. But too vague and mysterious to be hyped about. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ceeeb 147 Posted October 22, 2016 I expect it will be a scripted feature, something along the lines of Zeus. Moricky moved to the new studio, and BI are advertising a "technical artist" job there. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Agent Orange would do that. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
znooptokkie 14 Posted October 22, 2016 Maybe VR support for A3? http://orangecountyvr.com/ 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hamakaze 142 Posted October 22, 2016 Maybe VR support for A3? http://orangecountyvr.com/ I hope not... I'd rather it add some actual content to the game such as naval assets... Landing craft etc. we've been given Tanoa and Malden is in coming it would make sense for them to add equipment to move heavy vehicles around these islands and to use in amphibious assaults. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted October 22, 2016 VR would more likely to be a task for Enfusion developers, not content/features developers. --EDIT : What if... What if they actually didn't planed anything, and they're just looking at our reactions after the roadmap release in order to assign what we're asking to this Amsterdam team? I mean.. I'm just asking. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
heavygunner 179 Posted October 22, 2016 "While the exact direction isn't final, we're very much interested in exploring an interesting and unique perspective on the battlefield" They aren't dead set on a direction, so we might be able to influence their decision. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
froggyluv 2136 Posted October 22, 2016 My wild guess: VR We Dads need a conference on how in the hell we're gonna sneak this new tech into our families unnoticed. Im thinking "nightvision to catch intruders honey" to start... 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrStregatto 31 Posted October 22, 2016 Why not a revamp of the High Command Module?Or the entire commanding system? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[evo] dan 79 Posted October 22, 2016 I'm still hoping its going to be small boats and what not as part of a amphib dlc (marines, some small floating vehicles, landing craft, cb90 etc) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CaptainAzimuth 714 Posted October 22, 2016 I hope it's Naval assets. Jet and Tank DLC's are cool, meaning we have everything from Helicopters, Infantry, Planes, Tanks, Dirt Grinders, and... well, a rubber duck. Not many threats on the water, and all those detailed ports. I would absolutely love for this to be a Naval DLC, as there's a handful of things and new tech they could use with it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

xxgetbuck123 945 Posted October 23, 2016 Maybe how ACE is know for its Bananas, maybe BI is adding in Oranges as their little fruit? VR would more likely to be a task for Enfusion developers, not content/features developers. --EDIT : What if...

I'm just asking. If thats the case, quickly everyone jump on the band wagon and say we want naval assets and then they'll make them! haha 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Callsign 128 Posted October 23, 2016 Based on the usual topics that pop up on here for discussion, and 'interesting and unique perspective on the battlefield' I think it'll either be; Greater Medic/ revive functionality Naval Assets (The Netherlands is a maritime country remember ;) ) Women Another new MP gameplay mode 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
