Thread: Submarines and Naval Battles

  1. #1

    Submarines and Naval Battles

    I understand there are personal submersible carriers in the game which look really awesome. Could the game potentially support bigger submarines later on do you think? I think it would be neat if Arma 3 was also to focus on a full on naval battle with frigates and carriers since in the new engine you can travel underwater.

    This belongs more in the Community Wishes and Ideas No Discussion thread, but I think that either in the vanilla ArmA3 game or in a later expansion pack, BIS should add in full navies for NATO and Iran. Both have naval vessels, and a regionally-powerful Iran would definitely have a strong navy if it were to be a match for NATO. Seeing as Iran is focused on Limnos, Iranians on the island would most definitely be supplied by a naval vessel. Iran should really have a fleet in the Aegean sea.

    That would be a crazy-big new addition to the game, but would certainly be awesome. ArmA 2 has land, air, and sea, sure... but a few dinghies and a fishing boat and non-operating frigates are no real navy.

    I'm thinking an operational aircraft carrier (maybe a small version) that automatically refuels, repairs, and rearms at certain points and has its own settable launch system. And a frigate that is drivable and has a handful of gunner seats that control various guns from machine guns to cannons to cruise missiles.

    I'm guessing this may have to be an addon or mod, which im sure many talented modders will jump right on to

    It will be pretty shitty as when in water you will still see blue all inside the submarine.

    Yeah, that's why BIS needs to do it.

    Probably not possible with the ArmA engine.

    It will never happen. ARMA's focus has always been the foot-soldiers. Even if they did add naval combat, it would be arcade, not realistic anyway.

    That is when the modders come into it
