Huw the Poo

The only thing that I came up with was a better collision detection between player and vegetation. Does any game actually do this (Quick research: Unreal Engine 4 goes into the right direction, but does not enforce contact strictly. Must be a penalty method)? A lot of immersion would be gained if plants would realistically move out of the way of the player, especially in a first-person game.

If I recall correctly, Horizon: Zero Dawn does this.

QuoteOn the other hand, being spotted and shot at through vegetation was still a noticable problem.

Yep, and this is something I've never seen a game get right.  It forces you to turn the fancy vegetation graphics off in games like these, so that you aren't at a disadvantage.

the alien contact dlc released yesterday....a little expensive for me right now, sure i'll pick up in some future sale

I was going to post Rimmy's play through the contact campaign, but I decided that would be too spoilery.

Please instead accept this video AAR of Warhammer 40k Space Finnish Russians facing Iron Warriors in a winter Chernarus. This heavy fire is from Valhalla, with love.

Rimmy invades a Pacific island with his US Marine players, against a Japanese team; Arma continues to be just amazing (and amusingly buggy).

  All of the Faces of War and the Last Days of the Empire and all the CUPs and LTE compatability things plus UNSUNG and Indochina War to get some Israeli 1948 Negev atmosphere.  The Mods still have lots of weirdnesses such as which tanks are in which formations plus odd linguistic problems.

Nice series of screenshots Meng.  Are these singleplayer missions or is this co-op multiplayer?
