Folk ARPS and ArmA 3

Post by fer » Tue Feb 26, 2013 11:12 pm

Hey, I heard ArmA 3 Alpha will be available on 05 Mar 2013 - is FA switching over?
Not yet, comrade - but we do have some criteria for when the switch-over will occur, and a plan for the interim period.

What are the criteria?
Before FA's main sessions on Tuesdays and Sundays switch-over to ArmA 3, the following criteria must be met:
  • The FA ORBAT and comms approach for ArmA 3 must be agreed and published in our forums
  • An ArmA 3 version of F2 (F3), configured for the FA ORBAT etc. must be available for mission makers
  • Half a dozen FA-standard missions must be ready (which is not a lot if 3-4 comrade mission engineers go to work)
  • ArmA 3 must be available worldwide
  • ArmA 3 must be out of Beta (although a very stable beta may allow us to switch before the full release)
  • A significant number of comrades have ArmA 3
What happens to FA's Tuesday and Sunday sessions before the switch-over?
They will remain ArmA 2 sessions.

Can I play ArmA 3 with FA before the switch-over?
Yes, following the release of ArmA 3 Alpha, we shall be running a regular experimental session on Saturdays at 19:20 UK; however, these will probably be different from our regular sessions, and more focused on research.
