If I was a BIS dev I would not even consider it, simulating whether lakes have water in them during different seasons is going to far.

Well, it's Monday for half the world... currently.

What's the average time the dev branch receives updates?

I haven't been running dev since 0.74!

[hawk_silk 49]

If I remember correctly the Dev branch updates between 12 and 4pm (GMT) so my guess would be anywhere around 7pm and 11pm for you bud, since Australia has several time zones.

Regards Hawk.

[Simas 12]

I would say at least 3 more hours to go before the update :)

[Tyl3r99 41]

i say update will be 4 hours there may be some other decent fixes too!

*sigh* I would say 9 hours to go before update. -> After work :(. Time to get unemployed ;)

Eek. This is blurry textures. I'm sure they will be talked about in review. They are like an anachronism in a modern game.

Quite true - mostly apparent from the air - very unbecoming of Arma 3. Hopefully, the Nordkindchen suggestions will lead to something.... (http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?149905-Sophisticated-considerations-on-how-to-get-rid-of-the-blurry-mid-range-textures)

[cannonouscrash 12]

Most patches get pushed around mid morning 10-11am GMT. Can't see why it would be any different today.

Could be visitors from gamescom who have seen the bug, first news was that the version that was on gamescom is the version that will be released to the dev-branch ;)

Well all i know , is that it needs to hurry up and update so i can go to bed and be able to wake up and play on a new map because the Stratis is getting really old and i need something for this game lol .

[zedderzulu 7]

Well, should only be a matter of hours either way. I for one shall be giddy with excitement the second I see a green appear in my Steam taskbar icon.

Question I could ask everyone here I guess is, what's the first place you're going to visit?

Me, I'm going to see whether I can find Telos - which I'm sure I saw mentioned in the trivia bit at the bottom of one of the loading screens. Obscure Doctor Who reference? Obscure Star Wars reference? Obscure Greek reference? Or none-of-the-above-what-the-hell-are-you-talking-about!?! :P

Going diving to look for the large ship wreck mentioned on the first Livestream.

Then I am going to night dive it with some chem lights.

I could never find much underwater on Stratis... Maybe I'll have more luck on Altis. Anyway, first thing I'll do is take an atv and go exploring. I'll see if I can find the village on the mountain side shown in one of the newest Gamescom videos, that looked fantastic.

I think I might get a helo and simply look at all the fantastic shots. Take many screenies along the way, and literally find anything I can! Oh boy I am hyped ^.^

I'm just going to get in a Pawnee or Hummingbird and fly around with my stick + TrackIR... check out the locations from the sky, look at things like terrain variety, interesting locations, etc.

Try and learn the place.

By then, mission makers should have created something adapted to Altis, and I can explore it on the ground. :)

+1. I want to do some sight seeing first up.

[valnwt 11]

Only place I'm checking out is the Salt Lagoon, everything else i want to save for the campaign. I think it will give a better experience in missions if you're unfamiliar with the place.
