Yes of course. I've no problems with Steam.

I like Steam, so I dont have any problem with this development.

1. If you think this is a problem, read Windows EULA... 2. I consider Valve to be trustworthy company 3. All my important data are encrypted and I have good backup solution.

Its standart licence - almost identical to any other digital distribution service.

Another app for same purpose (and designed specially for Steam users) is SteamTool.

Unlikely - as final defensive option, Israel has large nuclear arsenal - enough nukes to turn most of the middle east to glass parking lot.

Not really, many games use Steamworks only for Steam version.

I dont see any reson why at least Steam version shouldnt have some Steamworks features.

Its almost exactly same EULA as with any other digital distribution service. Just slightly different words. taken from http://www.sprocketidea.com Also none of us own any games at all - only thing that is being sold to customer is limited licence with proper EULA. If you own software, you can for example make your own copes and sell them whereever you wish.

For example Steam Workshop is nice way to manage/install mods.

IIRC Trophy has 0.3 second between shots and can engage 2 enemy missiles/RPGs at the same time (I saw video where they tested it agains 2 RPGs at the same time), so it will wont be easy to take it out. Also remember that Merkava 4 is very well armored, so you would need powerfull ATGMs or RPGs to disable/destroy it. I agree with others that tank should be something that bunch of soldiers should fear instead of thinking "bleh, another target practice".

Fully mobilized Israeli army has around 700 000 soldiers with much better weapons that anything currently owned by Iran + Israel has enough IRBMs and ICBMs with nuclear warheads to turm very large part of middle east into glass parking lots. Also except of Syria, almost all other countries in region see Iran as enemy - so any cooperation is highly unlikely - there was even story last year that KSA might allow IAF to use its airspace to attack Iranian nuclear program.

Yes. 5char

Gas mask wont protect you against "modern" chemical weapons - skin contact is enough to incapacitate or kill.

Great way to open door:

Also I doubt that Leopard 2 or Challenger 2 or Abrams would have better results (compared to Merkava 4s) in such enviroment (almost all total tank losses were due to massive IEDs which can kill any tank).

Also danger that while he is shooting glue at tank, crew of that tank can ruin his entire day by MG fire or 120mm round. Overcomplicated ways to resolve problem on real battlefield can be very unreliable (true for both sides).

Well, its look like that Trophy works in Army3 http://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/trailers/3447-Arma-III-Teaser ---------- Post added at 01:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:40 PM ---------- Explosion speed of reactive armor is similar to that of C4 - so it would be effective. ---------- Post added at 01:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:42 PM ---------- I doubt that it would be effective - Trophy is computer controlled automated system, so its just matter of Trophy having instructions that in case of incomming projectile splitting into two (RPG-30 warhead + decoy) to shoot for bigger projectile - because RPG-30s decoy is small - so small that even if you jammed some warhead there instead of it, it wouldnt have enough power to cause any problem to tank. ---------- Post added at 01:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:52 PM ---------- Pretty much only ATGM that I know of capable of defeating Trophy and destroying modern well armored MBT like Merkava 4 or Abrams is/was american LOSAT (which was canceled) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LOSAT

I like features like STeam Cloud, so Yes.

I would like if Arma 3 use SteamWorks - improved server browser, Steam Cloud and other such features would be very good news for me.

Israel recently made Merkava 4 available for expert (to help fund its development and manufacture).

No we wont - because NV crippled CPU version of PhysX. I have AMD GPU and IMO if developer is happy to accept cash (if they allow significant feature differences from AMD to NV GPUs) from NV and in return screw customers who dont have "correct" brand GPU, I will (not) spend my money on their game based on that.
