[Idea] Precise real world map - Join Altis & stratis Like they are on the real world map
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

As you Know Stratis and Altis are real places in Europe not far from Greece.(if you dont , Go on Google Maps and copy and paste this into the google maps search : 39.533571,24.999794 and scroll out a bit and you'll see both maps) The place is actually called Limnos.

My Idea is , once Stratis and Altis are completed , I think it would be a very Amazing Idea. Think about it this way : You already have the Distance in water, i have flown out with the helicopter up to 35km before i got bored and re-spawned so you have the water distance. All you need is to Add them on the same "world map" in-game and make the game very very realistic !

Also perhaps it could be a Choice of Game , Ether Altis , Stratis or Full map for people who don't want to the full map. It will also Aid in Fix Wing Pilots when they come out , Planes like Cargo Planes and Para-dropping and Bombing runs would be more realistic and useful if you would have to fly across the sea to get to the other Island to Say .... Drop off a Special Tank that can only be found on Altis or only be found on stratis , ect.

Also to Aid realism , this kind of servers could be up to 100-200 players. It is possible because i used to play a game on the PS3 called MAG and it had 256 players on 1 map and null to zero lag. think about how Realistic that would be ! 200 people battling it out , Pilots wont complain about space any more , the possibilities are endless !

cant it be done as a modded single map when the game relases? it is possible, Seattle was the biggest map BIS ever made, and it was 100 X 100 km

correction, i meant south asia being 120 X 120 km

I can be someone made a 250000km map for the heck of it, so it is possible.

But those maps have a really large cell size right? So the topography would be very much less detailed.

It can be just as detailed, just with a map that size the problem is taking the time to detail all of it.

yep, i think after arma 2 or with arma 2/3 engine you can make a big map without killing detail, like i said, you CAN make altis and stratis a one unique terrain, but its all about who will do it, if BIS wont do it for gameplay reasons or because Altis its not made yet.

ArmA 1 did something similar with that small island south of Sahrani, i hope A3 can do the same, and it was a shame A2 didn't did the same with Chernarus/Utes.

And after that, Limnos its only a portion of greece (lucky us, its actually the most beautiful part of greece)
