Is this still the case or are the Candians and US now issuing these to troops? Regardless of that, good post, looking forward to the AAV.

0.92 in 5...4....
0.92 next week?

Awesome work guys, can't wait for 3D Optics, Eco, and UAV :razz:

I think there are a couple of comm factions that are quite close to being ready. They'll probably stay secret as long as possible.

Everything's looking awesome btw. Hopefully I'll get my new non-awful computer before the next patch and can start playing again :shock:

Secret?

Detailed German infantry preview: https://www.realitymod.com/forum/f196-pr-highlights/84844-bundeswehr-infantry-mini-preview.html

German Puma APC/IFV: https://www.realitymod.com/forum/f196-pr-highlights/84819-puma-spz-woodland-version.html

I'm just wondering why those highlights were left out of the reel.

you can't put everything in one reel, they were too late and maybe will be featured in next reel

An extra link would fit.

That implies there's some sort of deadline, which doesn't make sense when you can edit a post anytime you like.

You're wrong, drop this pointless argument.

Since you just say "No, you're wrong" without reasoning, any form of objective discussion with you seems pointless.

Hopefully someone else will explain why it can't be edited.

There is a deadline for it. As for reasoning, see above

No, it won't.

There's been no explanation as to why news posts can't be edited. I'm curious as every other type of post on the forum can be edited.

If there is a limit to the amount of links in a post, there's actually one link being wasted on the 'New shader for 3D Optics' as it's listed twice under 'Coding:' and 'Graphics:'.

I never said it cant be edited, i said we're not going to edit it, because its pointless and i gave you reasoning why some highlights are not in.

1# bosco collects the updated dev blogs and highlights that he thinks would be suitable for a Highlight (this happened a week before the big German faction release was announced IIRC)

2# he writes up the highlights reel, asking devs to post up better or more finalised renders for his highlight. He also downloads the latest test build to get in-game shots of highlights (germans were not fully in the latest test build at this point)

3# Website Gurus (Who are extremely busy at the moment with test builds, wiki, website updates and real life) adjust pictures in photoshop, add the templates and write up the dev blog so it is formatted in a way that the main page can handle.

4# Red tags check the update and it's posted.


We aim for only 3 items in an update. We had 4 items this time due to there being 4 big projects we wanted to show off. if we had included the German Faction, they would have knocked off one of the other projects. And we don't want to include them in a small footnote at the bottom.
