ArmA 4

The other day...I played a bit of ArmA 3 and clicked the 'instant action' multiplayer button, which I hadn't before, and found myself at a base, in the dark of night, hearing a squad leader (another player) instructing the pilots where to go and then ordering me onto a chopper, and off we went into battle. It was a blast. Then I played a mission and it was set in the day. While everything was fantastic, one thing stood out clearly, as always in the past. And thats that the LOD is not good. Im not sure if that's only on my system, or in general. There's a lot of amazing detail up close, but then if you look in the distance, stuff looks like it's from the 90's and any cover the foliage would provide is almost gone or reduced to twigs, so enemies are right out in the open almost. I'd say thats bad except at times, in the mission, it felt like that big advantage was needed for the win. So I went to find an ArmA 3 thread to do a rant, but the closest one was near 20 sheets ago. But in one of them, someone mentioned ArmA 4. I did a little search on the webs and found this...

This looks amazing and I'm looking forward to 2022 much more now! Can not wait!
 
Wasnt sure if I should make a new thread for ArmA Reforger, or not, but since it seems to be a step towards ArmA 4, added it here.
There are only a handful of vehicles in here, so far, but the interaction and visuals in the new Enfusion engine can be seen in here, and it's amazeballs. It runs quite smooth on my janky system, even zooming out on the whole island. Im not sure how they're able to do this so well, compared to ArmA 3, but they are. The lighting in this is incredible and has full day-night cycles, or set your own speed for time dilation. Still, only a taste of what's to come in ArmA 4. Can not wait!

Have been having lots of fun in it. Connection a bit unstable, so only played about half of 30 hours so far, but very enjoyable to be back to Everon after 20 years.

How are you liking the new interfaces? To me, it's like they've taken all suggestions they've had over the years and condensed them and made them well. Have you been in the BTR-70? If they can have that but in tanks and heli's and all, it'd be amazing. It already is.

Had fun with a squad and now, with how the map is, the driver made a left when he should have made a right...drove a few hundred meters, then realized it, and we turned around. Talk about immersion!

My hope is they'll be able to take anything made in the old engine and just drop it into this. Take-On Helicopters, but in this? Carrier Command 2? Would be nice.
 
If Reforger gets single-player content then I’ll buy it without hesitation - OFP is one of my most favourite games ever (and the main reason I’ve had a Seiko SKX009 diver’s watch strapped to my wrist for the last 15 years 😁) but I’m not a multiplayer gamer these days.

Hopefully either the original campaign will be added or mission creation tools released in the future 🤞

That I like to hear. Enkindles my interest.

It won't get a SP content. This is just a Multiplayer game between Arma 3 and Arma 4, but still a year from beeing Stable and Optimized. Basically how ED:Odyssey was on release day :rolleyes:.

Ther is a Game Master mode, where you can spawn NPC's, Structures, vehicles etc.
And a modding tool for creating Mods like this:
