Arma 3 Apex with new terrain is up for pre order with a 20% discount £19.99 gbp

Dont think of it as being vastly outnumbered ... but just having a large target selection.

The only thing more accurate than incoming fire, is incoming friendly fire

Is this likely to be a SimHQ thing? The aesthetic improvements come pro bono. $30 won't break the bank but I have no reason to do it unless this becomes something we do regularly.

The new map looks great! If I'm not mistaken the new Eden 3D editor gets released about the same time as Apex.

Its extremely likely to a near certainty it will be.

As for the eden editor, thats supposed to come out with the nexus update, which shouldn't be far off

I'm gonna guess the new map will be highly used. Probably new units as well.

If we all get it, then it's worth it. If some regulars don't get it, that will be problematic as either they are excluded when the map is played or those who have it are forced to play the old maps until they do.

So, if we all make a promise to get it, it shouldn't be an issue. smile

Day 1 purchase. I am sure I will use this plenty.

BIS posted that the graphical update is being pushed back to the Apex release. frown

"In our video update we also mention that the Visual Update, previously planned for Eden Update, has now slipped to Apex"

That's too far to wait after seeing that screenshot.

{Just deleted a stupid post}. But yeah, I'll get it. Another campaign should be fun if nothing else.

Apex is set for a Q2 release right? Hopefully it's out in the spring.

Should be good. I've never passed up an official expansion, they're always quality additions to the base game.

Is it expected that this graphical update will bump up system requirements to play it at the same level, or are they optimizing it at the same time?

they've said the only real performance killer will be the real time reflections on the water, the rest is pretty much on par with current performance.
