Actually something like this might be super helpful for Total Conversions like the Star Wars/Mass Effect opposition mods.
I dislike that these trailers never embrace the real arma experience. Where are the people lagging around and the scene where someone is stuck in a rock mashing his emergency noclip button aka vault
Or the Girlish Screams of young men when something really simple spooks them.
Ok, so this is how I get back into Arma 3 after a couple years away.
or people being weirdly racist and slinging slurs around (looking at you fparma)
As somebody who has never played Arma, I really wasn't expecting an alien expansion for it. Looks cool though.
Still no info on whether it contains actual alien units, or if it's all just scene dressing
It does seem to take after Roadside Picnic in some ways, with the gravitational fields and weird unknown obejcts and such, so that's good at least.
I wish Bohemia would just focus on developing a new engine that uses more than a single thread, and isn't tower of jank. Instead of milking A3 past its fresh-by date.
Store page makes note of "Recent reports also mention sightings of highly advanced car-sized alien entities surveying the UFO’s nearby environment."

if there's actual ayy forces in this i'm getting it so hard
Dude in the white T-posting to assert dominance.
Most of the dev team is now working on their new engine.

I'm sorry, but who are you? Like I'm legitimately serious, I don't think I've seen you at any of our missions. Granted I've been playing since 2016, but still.
I can't wait to see people some how fuck up first contact engagements in ways currently inconceivable by normal human beings and only barely conceivable by pentagon war computers.
The new terrain looks really cool honestly.
At this point, we wouldn't try to fuck them. We'd tell them we're going to bring them to our leader, President Ligma (Balls), and that'd begin 30 minutes of unfunny memeing and friendly fire before the aliens blasted back off and decided to crack the planet in half and call it a day. https://streamable.com/a6u9d
1 minute of a guy stumbling over his own words on the radio trying to call contact

https://clips.twitch.tv/RacyDeterminedPonyThisIsSparta i was in a handful of ops, a couple smaller ones. i encountered multiple people multiple times casually using "nigger" or "sand niggers". for somebody who's been playing since 2016 and to have never encountered any of this is wild.
We don't let people get away with that anymore. Especially since Twitch changed their TOS (and we typically have multiple streamers playing any given op). I'm not going to pretend that FPARMA is suddenly a bunch of good Christian boys who'd never say a single offensive thing, but we've generally clamped down on the worst behaviours -- groups change over time. And if you (or anyone playing) has an issue with another player, PM a moderator about it and it'll get sorted out; lots more effective than posting about it in a random thread over a year later.
nah, i already brought it up when it happened and nobody cared. just decided to leave fparma.
Shut up about your FPARMA drama nobody here gives a fuck Gonna wait for this one to release and see how it turns out. I heard Global Mobilization or whatever didn't do too well
My dude we can't control if some Norwegian wants to be a edgy Norwegian. Also, were you referring to this exchange with Versten as proof of us doing this? https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/213440/9f23babd-a56a-4561-be83-ddd65655e711/image.png I mean this was almost 2 years ago. He was given warnings for doing that. He doesn't play with us anymore because of it. There's a lot of exchanges like during that time frame you played. Mostly directed at a bunch of Northern/Slavic Europeans who didn't even have the same amount of stigma you or I have toward those words. Regardless of that, they were told off, they've been handled now, and they haven't said it since (and when they do we call them out/warn/ban them for breaking that rule). But hey, maybe you can look for yourself and see how much has changed. Should be easy, since you're still in our discord.
Trailer is giving me Arrival vibes, I wonder if there'll be a sequence where you use the EM spectrum device to communicate with the aliens since they speak via electromagnetic frequencies.
