ArmA 3, a game known for its hardcore simulation of military combat, is shifting its focus slightly with its latest DLC, "Laws of War". Where much of the base game centers around the moment-to-moment action and tactical decisions required in a firefight, "Laws of War" hones in on the effects of those firefights on both civilians living in the area and humanitarian workers attempting to repair the damage done afterward.
Announced last year by Bohemia Interactive of DayZ and Arma 3 fame, Project Argo was set to be a kind of “Bohemia Incubator” where they could freely test current and future projects. However, with constant updates and continued community involvement, Project Argo is changing it’s name to just Argo and is preparing to launch June 22nd on Steam.
A massive update landed for ArmA 3 this week, coinciding with the Apex Expansion launch. If you're an ArmA 3 player, you're in for a doozy of an update. This update clocks in at 9.6 GB or 1.5 GB, depending on whether you have Apex or not.
There is nothing quite like the thump, thump, thump noise of helicopter blades in a computer game. They invariably mean that you are about to have incoming enemy fire, or blessed support. Both will be enabled in ArmA 3 from November 4th when the 2nd Premium DLC is released.
Who says you need to put zombies and dog-eat-dog PvP into your modern military combat simulator for it to be popular? At least one million people have snatched up ArmA 3 since its release last September, as revealed by developer Bohemia Interactive's top dog, Marek Spanel. Of course, it probably wouldn't hurt to have zombies in there, seeing as how Day Z has wracked up twice that sales figure.
ArmA 3, the military sandbox game on the PC, recently got an official launch date: September 12th, 2013. It's hard to believe it, but that's just a little over a month away!
ArmA 3 has hit alpha phase and is actually available to purchase via Steam right now for $32.99. By doing so you get early access to the game, can contribute feedback to its development, and will get full access to the full release once it's ready. If you aren't familiar with the series, ArmA is all about real tactical combat in a sandbox type environment. We've already seen the potential of the series, with ArmA 2 allowing 100 player co-op missions.
Bohemia Interactive have released a teaser trailer for Arma 3, their next iteration in their tactical warfare series for the PC. It sort of blurs the line between live action video and in game footage. We're actually quite confused at what we're looking at, especially if you let the trailer run passed the closing logo.
Boehmia Interactive have announced Arma 3, the sequel to Arma 2. Shocking, I know. The series is created by many of the original developers of the first Operation Flashpoint game and it retains a gritty and realistic look at war. Along with this, the Arma games focus on realistic vehicles and weapons to try to emulate an authentic experience.
