ArmA 3 fans, get ready for a treat. Bohemia’s forum member ‘super-truite’ on a mod for the latest entry in the ArmA series that promises to bring the Apocalypse with falling meteors, volcanic eruptions, earthquakes and floods. Unfortunately, this mod is not available as of yet, but you can view its first screenshots below.
This mod is all about surviving. As super-truite wrote on Bohemia’s forum:
“You spawn at a random location with your teammates and you must find a way to leave Altis, to try to reach a NATO war ship. CSAT forces try to run away as well and you need to fight your way through Altis to find fuel, vehicles, Ammo ect. Your primary goal being of course to find a boat or chopper. “
The modder is currently looking for other modders to complete and release this mod.
“I cannot release the mission for the moment as it is far from ready. What is done so far is some prototypes for the apocalyptic effects (meteors, earthquakes, water rising). It needs some visual tweaks, but performance wise it is working fine. What needs to be done is to implement more randomness for the loot/spawns/patrols, while keeping good perfomances. Since I will have very little time for modding till june-july 2014, I would really benefit from having partners to help me. So, if some good scripters are willing to join the adventure, please PM me”
Enjoy!

Just downloading Arma 2 right this minute, as I’ve watched 30+ vids on DayZ and I have to have it. I’ll get the standalone when it’s had a few more updates later in the year, wish me luck :/
Yesterday I was reading the reviews for DayZ on the steam page. So many laughs haha. Gave me the urge to get the game just based on the stories. xD
Agreed, funny reviews and crazy game stories. I haven’t played in the Arma engine before, so I’ll be a total noob. If you buy it, come join me, the combined operations pack is £16.99 and then you can download the DayZ mod for free 😀
Oh goodie, that sounds like fun =D then will be two noobs haha
I’ll have wait till next month however, my monitor fell down and broke ;_; so gotta have some things done before buy another and the game so I’ll try to be in touch 😉
I’m playing it on a crappy 17″ as I just sold my 27″ to my girl but I’m getting this in a few weeks time:

Gonna see those pesky bandits on my 6 with the ultra-wide screen
(-_-)
Wow mate a couple of weeks ago I got Arma Gold Edition, Arma 2, Arma 2 Operation Arrowhead, Arma 2 Dayz Mod, and some more stuff related to it for just 4,75€ in a Humble Bundle. And more games from Bohemia Interactive as Take On Helicopters, Carrier Command Gaea Mission and some other old ones.
My PC can´t handle the game very well so I´m not playing the mod, but once I upgrade I´ll try it for sure as well.
I missed the sale, but I can’t wait for the next one, as I need this game in my life 😀 See you after your upgrade.
