I was waiting for a mission, and for my sins, they gave me one.

They have their competition cut out for them. The Unsung Vietnam mod is Exceptional with a capital "E".

It seems the DLC is a "creator DLC" which may be the unsung mod?

Perfect game for this setting I say. Might actually finally make me load arma3 onto my pc.

I don't have Arma3 but this is interesting.  Some very nice looking screenshots in that link. 

Dammit Carl!

Unsung is great, but having it as dlc with a dedicated sp campaign will be cool.  Also a dedicated Vietnam island shipping with it.

This was released....was thinking of getting but seems like single player content lacking, mostly more training type stuff.  Maybe once people come out with a lot more single player scenarios, I'll jump in.

Yeah. It's another bullshit co-op campaign. So God damn annoyed. I don't know why Bohemia keeps doing that. So frustrating.

The older iterations of Arma had AI you could put into co-op missions. I guess they got rid of that? I was annoyed to find I was Rambo running around the Ho Chi Minh Trail by myself.

Rimmy's crew do the campaign (to be continued)...


Wolfpack's more sober version:
ICEBREAKER THESIS CHRONOLOGY! -- Victor Suvorov's Stalin Grand Strategy theory, in lots and lots of chronological order...
Dawn of Armageddon -- narrative AAR for Dawn of War: Soulstorm: Ultimate Apocalypse
Survive Harder! -- Two season narrative AAR, an Amazon Blood Bowl career.
PanzOrc Corpz Generals -- Fantasy Wars narrative AAR, half a combined campaign.
Khazâd du-bekâr! -- narrative dwarf AAR for LotR BfME2 RotWK campaign.
RobO Q Campaign Generator -- archived classic CMBB/CMAK tool!

I watched somebody review it a little and was really disappointed at how the arma3 engine has aged graphically? I played ARMA3 for about 5 minutes total many years ago and thought the graphics were amazing at release. Now it reminds me of operation flashpoint. Was it just the review I was watching? Do the graphics hold up still? Or is it now a game you have to love the mechanics so much that you can ignore the poor graphics.

It may be somebody's graphics settings. Forests/jungles are notoriously high-poly, and to keep frame rates reasonable on an older machine they may have dialled it down. I think the game still looks amazing, but I don't know what you're comparing it to.
