Bohemia Interactive released a special Arma 3 developer diary video, providing more details on Tanoa - the new terrain featured in the upcoming Arma 3 expansion, which is scheduled for release in the first half of 2016.

In this developer diary, Arma 3's Creative Director Jay Crowe and Project Lead Joris-Jan van 't Land discuss how the devteam came to a South Pacific destination, describe some of the key characteristics and points of interest on Tanoa, and reflect on development so far and the roadmap ahead.

*Game footage in this video was captured from an early development version.

Besides the new Tanoa terrain, the Arma 3 expansion will include new vehicles, weapons, attachments and gear, characters, playable content, and more. The expansion is scheduled to be released in the first half of 2016 and will be distributed as DLC for the base Arma 3 game. More information about the expansion will be shared at a later date.

Looks awesome! The only ArmA 3 DLC I have at the moment is the go karts. This expansion might get me playing ArmA 3 again and regularly. Looking forward to see what the community can do with this expansion!

Czech Republic for Arma 2 was the best expansion imo.

But until they sort out the performance issues, netcode, super 100/100 enemy ai eyesight and their ability to see through solid objects, trees/foliage...Im going to pass on all things arma.

If you ever thought they would be resolved you were deluded, everyone has always known the engine is horse****e and the only thing that will help it is either a full engine rebuild or getting some DX12 implementation, which is likely in the future.
