The team has done it again the long awaited Echo release is finally here!!!

Dependency and compatibility

 

The Unsung mod is designed as a standalone full-conversion mod for Arma 3. This release supercedes Delta release and is a complete replacement for it. It should be backwards compatible with missions made for Bravo, Charlie and Delta editions.

Some of the maps use APEX foliage and playing on those maps MAY cause you issues with signed servers if you do not have the APEX DLC.

It is not tested with other mods, and we cannot answer questions about compatibility.
However we have tried to make it work with TFAR, and it probably works alongside ACE, but what works and what does not work with ACE is unknown.

If you have memory crashes using Unsung, especially on the APEX-related maps. Turn down your view distance, and play in 64 bit and test the 3 available memory allocators in the A3 Launcher.

You can play up to 32 player MP persistent missions made by the team here

Well worth all the time and effort, guys. Delta was great fun, but Echo totally blows it away. It`s like a whole new game.

 

Exhilarating and utterly horrific in equal measures... Welcome to the jungle.
