76 0 Posted July 26, 2009 (edited) I posted this here http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?t=81460 but posting it here too hoping BI would see it and comment :) pretty plz :) Is there any way you guys at BI could select the best of the best user addons (I'm only thinking weapons and vehicles) and with permission from the creator release them with patches??? There are some amazing user made vehicles and weapons out there but like all before them they rarely get used by the mainstream OFP/ArmA player. Something like... with each major patch, BI select what they think are the best 2 or 3 addons for the time period between each major patch and release the addons as official with the upcoming major patch and so on. Best being... - Falls in line with the ArmA2 standard/feel - To serve a real purpose/to be of actual use in the ArmA2 world (not just a hummer with a different GPMG on it or another variant of a G36) - Looks, plays and controls like its authentic - User friendly Maybe BI could slightly edit them to comform to BI standards just a thought Edited July 26, 2009 by 76 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Reyn 10 Posted July 26, 2009 I totally agree. There is a lot of user made content that should be standard within the game so that it can be used online without the need for addon folders and the like. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wooly-back-jack 10 Posted July 26, 2009 before anyone suggests it, no 'community votes' ... let officials decide imo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Reyn 10 Posted July 26, 2009 I don't think i would be 100% wrong if i said that BIS may have had this cross their mind already... Afterall, look at the standard units we have now... Seem familiar? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BI could hand the task to 1 or 2 employees, it shouldn't take up more that a day before a patch is finalised for release. Edited July 26, 2009 by 76 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

USSRsniper 0 Posted July 26, 2009 Dang, i knew it! Of course because that guy who made it worked for BIS :D So BIS does use addons they like. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[aps]gnat 28 Posted July 26, 2009 ........ not so easy. All copyrights and permissions and true source etc would have to be very thoughly checked and traced before BIS could even consider adding them to an official patch, otherwise BIS could have accidently stuck their head on a chopping-block! Nice idea ..... but very tough for them I'd think. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
