Armed Assault FAQ

Recommended Posts

Btw, this thread contains some information about news & changes in Elite. It might be worth a look.

My apologies for all the typo's,I typed that at 2am and I was pretty tired..but nontheless..still trying to get the pictures but I'm debating if their worth it,all I need is to see somebody say "Yes post some OFP:E pictures" and I'll do it,I have a projector with a large eh..screen..much like this picture http://www.mapfact.net/Material/News/Mai06/ArmA/ArmA_08.JPG

And my thanks to everyone whom contributed to the OFP:E "update" thread.

Frequently asked Questions:

I got the following info from the following pages, plus an E3 interview video I saw recently (though I can't now find it to link to it).

http://www.simhq.com/_all/all_018c.html

How many players will be supported in Multiplayer?

Armed Assault will support up to 200 players in multiplayer.

Release Date...?

According to the E3 interview, they apparently hope to have it ready to purchase by... July? That's a bold statement, given that, to my knowledge, previous to E3 they didn't have a publisher. Perhaps a publisher has snapped them up during E3, that they haven't announced yet?

I've also recently seen Q3 as a target time period.

How big is the new island?

The island has an area of approximately 400 square kilometers.

Will the terrain include rivers and lakes?

Yes, according to the E3 interview video I saw.

A river may be possible..in OFP:E I recently discovered that the fountains have animated moving water that does NOT move up and down,a river model might be possible..

DAmn that OFP and OFP:E typo!

The key term in that description is 'emptying'. If the body of water is not on an incline it can't 'empty' into anything and it is not a river.

Well if you think a question doesn't deserve it's own thread you mightaswell post it here i guess.

Anyways, i'll read through the mapfact report and see if i can add to the FAQ.

The FAQ should be accurate and thus open to correction, yes?

I don't see how we can avoid debating the accuracy of some answers. It shouldn't be done in another thread either, unless the FAQ answer points to that discussion as further reading.

Rivers will not be implemented in Armed Assault, according to BIS. Of course, the old OFP "fake" rivers can still be made, only that it'll be salty sea really.

It will also be possible to create water above sea level, but you'll probably be able to 'destory' the water. (Place a satchel in the water, blow it. And tada: The water isn't there anymore).

I guees that would be possible. Though BIS didn't think about that when they created the pond south of Le Moule in Elite help.gif

Maybe there is a way to do it like in OFP:E,the church fountains and whatnot have animated water that doesnt move up nor down,it may be possible if the river is like a model or something..

i dont think these will be in armed assualt

but they should be http://www.military.com/soldier....00.html

All three of the weapon systems are connected to a central Improved Target Acquisition System that gives the gunner the option of firing each weapon with the flick of a switch and automatically gauges the range of the target by using an eye-safe laser range finder.

nice maybe they put em in game 2

So, as this is the FAQ thread, you meant to phrase that as:

Will we see the Humvee-mounted Assault Weapon System in Armed Assault?

No.
