ArmA 2: British Armed Forces starts with a scene that is unlike anything in most military shooters. Your helicopter is shot down over enemy territory and you're tasked with defending it before running for evacuation.
Mods on Monday is back for another week. This week, Arma II's mod, Wasteland, a sandbox style gamemode is featured for this week. The idea is to scavenge for your weapons and gear via vehicles as well as take down objectives that appear on the map, taking them for your team. Along with that, the ability to build your own bases by taking the resources you need from the places around you.
Suggestions for more mods to look into are welcomed.
With the first public protests planned for the 26th of November in Prague, a letter of Czech President Vaclav Klaus to the Greek Government seems to bring a new momentum to the cases of the two imprisoned Bohemia Interactive Devs Ivan and Martin. The matter is now proclaimed an issue of international diplomacy between the two states, however the words of Klaus appear rather cautious and hollow, taking into account the tremendous weight of the accusations against the two.
Do these two have anything to do with Dayz development? Regardless, Im sure given the state of Greece and its economy; Greece assumes these two are multi millionaire devs or at least backed by a multi million dollar game company. Perhaps Greece is hoping to "cash in" before they agree to release these two innocent vacationers.
Ivan and Martin worked on the Chernarus map, they were not directly involved in DayZ development. But they could have been involved in making Chernarus Plus for the Standalone, if they were not detained in greece. :/
The release date for DayZ Standalone was updated at official dayzmod.com forums to December 2012. An official Standalone Thread is existing over there where board admin Griff explained that an exact release date cannot be published yet, because a release of an alpha version can be postponed if modifications have to be done right before the internal planned release.
