They better have female soldiers...

[They better have female soldiers...]

erhm... what about women wanting to play arma too?

in all seriousness... women should be in arma 3 on equal terms with men, this is supposed to be the 21st century after all... and women have had the opportunity to serve in armed forces throughout history ;) the dahomey amazons does spring to my mind as a classical example of an all female military unit that served on equal terms ;)

[WW1 Mod - ArmA 2 CO]

i will get this when it goes beta :) i love the period and there are so much possibility to do something with arma

and if you don't like trench warfare?

the african theather, vonn lettow and his campaign in east africa- 4 years of successful guerrilla warfare

the ottoman campaigns of the middel east and the balkans - we got the map for a med east area already :)

the eastern front of germany and austro hungary, romania and possibly also serbian fronts could be well covered by the original arma 2.

the italian front could also be nice to visit, rommel won some victories there that should be fun to recreate :)

[Latest CC:GM Press Coverage]

yes it looks very very pretty and it does indeed look like an arma ii engine makeover.

now we just need some info on the gameplay from the devs. but since it is being developed for consoles as well im not expecting a classic like the original nor any revolutionary improvements other than squads and infantry... or maybe it is just me :p

[How close to the original? (don't know the books)]

Regarding the chap who was writing a remake since 2003: could one of the BIS team clarify that no legal threat was made towards the guy?

I have read most of his development notes and I haven't seen him hint at any intention to eventually release his code as a commercial product. It started out, and seemed to remain a project for himself and a community of enthusiasts of the original game.

Considering he has been working on his project presumably long before BIS decided to get their mits on the IP rights, can you justify any legal threat made to the chap (IF any were actually made)?

If I was in BIS's shoes I'd be getting this guy onboard - he knows the game inside-out, and has an obvious passion and commitment to the project...

it would appear as if bis indeed did threaten the guy, since they never even bothered answering your question.

also ive found no indication of bis actually owning any of the IP for carrier command or any news to the fact, one is left with a rather bad taste...

i for one would also love a clarification as to what has been going on and a simple clarification as to who owns the IP currently

but it is lovely to see one of my favorite oldies remade, even if it is going to be consolif*'ed :rolleyes:
