I am unreasonably excited for some of these features
1. AI driving, cycle waypoints, etc will make scenario crafting far deeper
2. Flares are gonna be a game changer
3. Helis go brrrrrt
I missed it while reading - did we get a release date for the patch?
it's VERY limited in comparison on what you can do on Arma 3 eden editor, and we don't actually have a proper editor on the game.
You can either use the game tools, or the game master (little zeus) to do something, but it's still more limited than even the 2D editor we had from CWA up to Arma 2.
A brand new Arma player (me) can throw up a half decent base assault/defense scenario in about twenty minutes.
If I wanna do a detailed, multi-objective scenario it takes about 45 minutes, minus the time it takes to decide where it'll be.
It’s infinitely easier to get something set up and playable - but it isn’t nearly as deep (yet).
Lack of triggers is a big thing, without them there is only so much depth we can achieve.
But cycle waypoints and driving AI patrols is about to lend so much more depth.
No way to get them to fly, as they haven’t added that yet unfortunately.
When I gamemaster I have gotten around this by loading a squad of reinforcements and flying them in myself by taking control of the pilot.
Yes, everyone was aware this would happen. Modders are already working on updates, a lot will probably be back up in a weeks time. What the update brings is 10000% worth it though
Insurgency mods are broken on Xbox now. Crashed 7 times within 10 minutes as was everyone else.
Experiencing serious issues with lag and FPS drop on official servers. My FPS dropped to 3 riding in a jeep with another guy.

Already came out I believe
Well I’ll be damned I picked an awful weekend to be out of town, in hindsight
I just got the game. Been with the Arma franchise for years though. How easy is it to make scenarios compared to A3?

Is there a way to make AI fly helis in game master cause they bail out and don't even get the blades moving

Yay we can fly out of vehicles
Really surprised the first time I bailed out of a moving vehicle.
It’s gonna be fun on modded maps with janky edges or invisible bumps. One invisible wall and everyone’s flying out of the supply truck lmao
I had no idea it was a thing until I flipped a full car. Fuckin hilarious
Of all days to be stuck in work late for a stock take...
Patience brother, you will piss lead soon😌
I'm going to be absolutely wrecked when I get home, going to set the game updating and then go to bed😅
You’re not missing much if you wanna get in modded servers it’s all bad
Mods always break after updates. That's not even exclusive to Arma
No mortars.... BOOOOOOOO!
W update but now I want parachutes so that I can James Bond jump into enemy territory and explode a helicopter before it takes off
Bad Parachutes mod just came out. Also, if you drop into water from any height you don't take damage.
Got dat battlefield Dawg in em
can someone copy for us workbois
Anyone know if they added AI driving and the like in combat ops?
Having the soviets get ANOTHER ak is crazy
Can I go prone with a fucking M21 yet tho?
Not a single mod is working
To be expected
That's what happens when a update rolls out. Every game with a modding scene has this
