Helicopters are right at home here and you will have a lot to explore (oh yes, the Burj Al-Arab helipad is landable, for starters). A map to lose yourselfĬombat and missions aside, if you are like me, you’ll lose yourself just flying around.
Arma 3 gulf war update#
The whole atmosphere since the 2.5 came out seems better in each update and the new map shows that in full glory. The map presents you with great new structures, a lot of air bases and places of interest to fly at. You have the desert, the urban areas, mountains, some zones filled with trees, the Persian Gulf, the Gulf of Oman, new countries… As do the smaller villages across the map.īut those, I think, do capture your imagination when you find these small pearls of architecture buildings that are very native to the location. Or perhaps all the artificial lakes and offshore constructions (or me being a sucker for the Burj Al-Arab hotel since FSX) that contrast with the buildings, but the city of Dubai really strikes me. Perhaps it’s the cool, tall buildings or the way they are organized. This may sound weird to you, but I feel the urban areas of this map to be more interesting than the NTTR ones (yes, even Las Vegas). Haven't you subscribed to our YouTube channel yet? Well, the thing is that this is really a map that takes place in the desert, but you have a lot of different things to see and to fly at. If you go back at the last couple of paragraphs I wrote, that looks like the feeling that I have had, right? I once saw a fellow simmer saying that this map was “just a big piece of desert”. It’s not that this is a bad thing or some sort of error or mistake from ED. In the Persian Gulf terrain (just like the NTTR) I feel some areas are empty. In the Caucasus you have a lot of stuff going on: trees, houses, roads… The map feels solid, although, I must confess, desert maps always make me think there’s something missing. The general feeling when flying around it is pretty good. The extension of the map is huge, and it spawns through the strategic and geographic interesting region of the Strait of Hormuz with some quite interesting features and some astonishing urban areas. And we went even crazier when we started to see some screenshots coming out. So, we all went crazy when we heard Eagle Dynamics was working on the Persian Gulf map. Oh yeah! And Normandy looks pretty nice as well.įolks crave for new places to fly at. And, for some reason, I think NTTR is not getting a lot of love. The Caucasus is a great map and the Nevada Test and Training Range terrain is fun (and a classic for those that love jet fighters) but they have been out there for some time. Is the new terrain worth my hard-earned money? So, whenever a new terrain comes out (another thing that makes DCS special in the market – you can’t fly the world rather, you need to purchase new scenery) people get excited over it and immediately want to put their virtual wings to work on the new environment.
