Jesus

I only played FIA once in 1.7 and we were annoying enough. Can't imagine this is gonna play very well at all

It's funny cause around the world people have known for over 100 years that it's annoying to fight an insurgency as conventional force. The Arabs harassing the ottomans, the US learning the lesson in Vietnam, Iraq, the soviet's in Afghanistan, etc. It's annoying cause the enemy gets to choose where to strike, and can effectively be anywhere or no where at once.

BI is adding a force that is just gonna be annoying to fight for conventional forces. Fun for FIA, and a thorn for everyone else. I don't think this is gonna be healthy for the game

its all could work with FIA but ON SMALL MAP, not fking everon map with 30 players vs 30 players, with area to secure so big in favour for FIA, if we had working AI for protecting and having over 200 players that might work, it would be a challenge for FIA to sabotage anything, now all they need is take some RPG, mines and wait, then runaway to vast forest

Yeah, that was my thought as well.

If we had tons of friendly AI on bases, patrolling, and running logistics (as convoys with protection) it could work.

But we won't have that level of AI integration in PvPvE modes until Arma 5 at this rate.
