    Arma 3 Community Alpha - Announcement!

    I hate steam bloatware but 15% is an excellent rate, especially as the remaining 85% goes to BIS whereas with hard copies it'd be divvied up between them, the distributor, publisher, etc.

    Doesn't seem like much new content on show. :( Same old E3 demos with expanded training camp and mine segment.

    Dreamt about Arma3 last night that the gamescom demo was showing off all the aircraft. :(
  4. For some reason Worthplaying is releasing DayZ screens as WarZ screens. http://worthplaying.com/article/2012/8/1/news/86727/

    I can speak from experience and with absolute certainty that no it would not.

    Would rather have a picture of something new. We've seen the SDV from every angle. Do they have any new media that isn't from the done-to-death E3 demo?
  7. It's been in development since last year. Might want to scale down the paranoia.

    Those vids are better than the corresponding official E3 ones. Shame though that this repeated, narrow look of these 5 scenarios are all we'll get for quite a while. Haven't seen anything new since the first week of E3.
  9. This is appearing on news sites. Digital camo is being ditched after $5,000,000,000 and 8 years because it actually helped highlight soldiers. http://www.thedaily.com/page/2012/06/24/062412-news-camouflage-fiasco-1-5/ http://defense.aol.com/2012/06/25/army-drops-universal-camouflage-after-spending-billions/ But relevant to ArmA So it's expected the army will be heading back to wave-based camo, and given all the backlash that's going to happen: I doubt anyone will suggest returning to digital camo for a very long time. So will Arma 3 keep the digital based camo, for infantry or vehicles? For It's already finished It matches the future setting, stylistically So many assets to recheck for texture seams, etc Against It won't match reality, even allowing for future setting The time left till release might be long enough? If digital camo won't work in the real world, it won't work in a game It's a repeating pattern taken from a reference picture - very little "artistic" input needed to make it work

    Man, they're really going to drag this out over 3 weeks? Seems desperate.

    During one of the vids a player scrolled open the action menu and highlighted "Draw P07 pistol" but selected cancel instead, so the character model should be carrying it.

    1. Vapor trails coming off jets' wings in tight turns. Done by modders in Arma1 & 2. Such a simple thing but it improves the look no end. 2. Pic of the Bradley's replacement Would be nice for BLUFOR to have it but probably too late by now.

    Is Arma 3 authentic?

    That turret style exists http://h8.abload.de/img/patrianemoonpatriaamvpe05f.jpg and future setting allows it to be adapted by other vehicles.

    It might just be the equivalent of an M1A1 vs M1A2 TUSK as the one with reactive armour also has the extra commander MG.

    which vid was this?

    I agree that most likely Grenadier versions are separate models like in Arma II, but on the topic of underrail attachements, the top pic shows a vertical foregrip and the 2nd pic (the MX next to the MX3GL) has a Magpul angled foregrip. Sorry, i was talking about the AFG on the rifle in the upper right of that pic, not the pistol grip of the 3GL in the centre.

    But here's an MX with a vertical foregrip http://www.imfdb.org/w/images/thumb/9/99/Arma3-e3-2.jpg/600px-Arma3-e3-2.jpg and here's one with the slanted version http://www.imfdb.org/w/images/thumb/0/06/Arma3gl.jpg/600px-Arma3gl.jpg

    Metal Storm's 3GL is the mounted grenade launcher used. http://www.imfdb.org/wiki/ArmA_III#Metal_Storm_3GL
  22. Hi, I've reinstalled Arma 2 for a playthrough but to change things up it'd be good if I could choose any weapon I wanted. Is there a mod that gives you access to all firearms or spawn a firearm of your choice in the Singleplayer Campaign?

    Hello. Could you please make the F2000's optional foregrip the Monolith Arms Tri-Rail System so it looks like a giant P90? Would also love to see the integrated scope version instead of the ugly railed Tactical model.
