W0lle 1050 Posted March 12, 2020 That's right. After only six years I finally found my way into ArmA3. And after I have donated a big part of CWR² to the CUP team years ago, I thought it might be a good idea to get the Mod and see what they did with it. And soon after I started playing the first old missions in the new playground. Tried a bunch of other Mods and addons but soon it was clear that just playing missions and exploring terrains isn't enough. Guess I just can't let sleeping dogs lie. 🤷♂️ So I got in touch with some of the old team members and after lots of talking - well here we go. This is the beginning of Cold War Rearmed III. Just a bit late though. Now, this is what we have in mind:CUP will be the Basis for the Modification, simply because a big part of what is needed these skilled people already made or ported to ArmA3 (and a lot more!). This is an approach we haven't gone before but porting all the required models from CWR² is simply not possible. And it makes no sense to reinvent the wheel when it's already rolling. Only what is not included in CUP, we have to either create on our own or maybe can get from someone else who made it. After all, the many kind donations from the community allowed us to make CWR² as big as it is now. I'm well aware that there are several more or less active or abandoned Cold War Mods out there. And I hope that we can complement each other. The goal is, as before, to resurrect the original content from the very early days of this series. One more time. No more a 1:1 copy like in the past though. We might change things here and there for a (slightly) more realistic approach. All depending on time and resources though. Also, there won't be any more Expansions like in CWR². If someone wants Cold War <insert random army> in Cold War Rearmed III, he can create that Expansion using our Mod (and CUP) as basis. We might assist with small tasks, but fixing problems and distribute the Expansion is nothing we deal with anymore. Besides the CUP dependency, something else will be different with Cold War Rearmed III. Other than before, we will release the content we have ready to be shipped out. The details on how and where the releases take place must be determined. Let's see how and where this journey ends. 🙂 57 20 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mondkalb 1087 Posted March 12, 2020 That is certainly unexpected news! You should definitely get into contact with the very promising Conflict 85 and see if there is any synergies or cooperation that can be found. Perhaps join and boost their effort? Also check out CSLA3, they seem to be covering the US side quite well in regards to being an analogue of OFP. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

flv*venom* 83 Posted March 12, 2020 OH MY GOD! YeeeeeaaaaahaaaaaW!!!!! welcome back wolle! That is the best News I've read in a whole while! Best of luck with the Project. only one Question remains: will the Cobra make a comeback? I don't want to Sound rude to those who invested their time into turning the AH1Z into an older model, but None of them managed to create a realistic and gorgeous one like the one from cwr2 . 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
krzychuzokecia 717 Posted March 12, 2020 Welcome back! Arma is in dire need of some old-school Yanks vs Soviet action! And to think that just on Monday I started working on my own "CUP in the 80s" thing - guess it's time to find some new project lol! 5 hours ago, mondkalb said: Also check out CSLA3, they seem to be covering the US side quite well in regards to being an analogue of OFP. Out of curiosity: isn't CSLA part of Creator DLC program? I remember their photos from BIS Creator Bootcamp event. I guess you should know, being Creator yourself. ;) (yeah, yeah, you all probably signed NDAs, and black helicopters are after me!) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't want to Sound rude to those who invested their time into turning the AH1Z into an older model, but None of them managed to create a realistic and gorgeous one like the one from cwr2 . Now, now. 🙂 At present, it's all more or less a crazy idea and a long way to go. Porting the finest Cobra model this community ever has seen is difficult. Especially since Max has no dev Tools installed anymore. But I heard that there is hope the AH-1F one day returns. 😉 15 minutes ago, markocro said: Awesome news, ohh and try to contact Conflict 85 DEVs 🙂 I was in touch with slatts some days ago, before I decided to make this public.

After all, they were (and are) the heart of OFP and CWR. They might be a bit different now with that smarter AI around and all the other changes in A3.
