Subscribing to this Workshop item does NOT give you ownership of this DLC, but it will make it possible for those who do not yet own this DLC to join multiplayer servers that make use of GM assets, such as its weapons and vehicles.

Please be aware that restrictions[www.bohemia.net] to the use of DLC assets will apply to non-owners (for example, premium weapons cannot be picked up, premium vehicles can be primarily used as a passenger, and you receive DLC purchase notifications when using premium assets). Also note that access to the GM DLC's Weferlingen terrain remains fully exclusive to owners of the DLC (similar to default Arma 3 DLC with premium terrains such as Arma 3 Apex/Tanoa).

Frequently Asked Questions

When should I subscribe to this item?
If you subscribe to this Workshop item as a non-owner of the Global Mobilization Creator DLC (GM), then it will adopt the same Content Licensing system[www.bohemia.net] that is also used for default Arma 3 DLC. Some of the most typical use case scenarios for wanting to subscribe to this Workshop item are the following:

You did not want/were able to purchase the DLC yet, and you accept restrictions to the use of its content, but...

you want to join multiplayer servers that make use of GM content (note that this does not include access to the Weferlingen terrain);
you want to be able to preview the GM DLC assets in the Virtual Arsenal;
you want to access a community-made scenario, add-on, or mod that makes use of GM assets.

Why is Creator DLC data optional to install?
Creator DLC is optional to install so that the default Arma 3 installation size (and update download sizes) remains manageable for all – also for those who do not own or have interest in particular Creator DLC, and/or for people with limited storage space or slower Internet speeds/data restrictions. This is expected to become even more important in the future, when more Creator DLC of large data sizes might be released (for reference, GM DLC data is already about 20 GB). One other reason is that a Creator DLC's theme or setting might be very different from regular Arma 3, and not everyone might want that to be visible in their game.

I already own this DLC. Should I still subscribe to the Workshop item?
If you already own the DLC, you should not subscribe to this Workshop item to avoid the unnecessary duplication of data.

Anything else?
For more details, be sure to read the description on the "Global Mobilization - Cold War Germany: Compatibility Data for Non-Owners" Workshop page.

All in all, we believe this provides a good solution in terms of enabling DLC owners and non-owners to still play together online as much as possible. Thank you for your feedback and patience – and see you in-game!

Following its reveal in May, today we've published a brand-new trailer for the upcoming Arma 3 spin-off expansion, Arma 3 Contact – which is scheduled for arrival on Steam on July 25, 2019.

https://youtu.be/wpCQZdhnDAM
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1021790

Narrated by Game Designer Scott Alsworth, the new trailer goes beyond Arma 3 Contact’s extraterrestrial components – such as its military science fiction singleplayer campaign – to present a showcase of all the other sandbox assets that the Contact expansion will deliver to the wider Arma 3 platform, including a massive terrain, new factions, weapons, vehicles, and more.

The largest addition is a 163 square kilometer Eastern European terrain, which covers the partly abandoned Nadbór region within the larger Polish-speaking country of Livonia. This temperate summer environment is characterized by its many coniferous forests, open wheat fields, towns, railroads, the Biela river, and many interesting landmarks such as an old munitions factory, an abandoned radar station, and dozens of old bunkers from World War II.

To support the new locale, Arma 3 Contact will introduce two small-yet-capable new factions to the game. These are the local Livonian Defense Force and the Russian Spetsnaz. Each of these will be equipped with their own gear and have access to a customized arsenal, and will be complemented by new character faces, as well as Polish or Russian radio protocols. Moreover, the expansion will add 5 new weapons and an unlikely pair of new vehicles in the form of the Mini UGV and Tractor.

In response to first contact, there will also be various new game assets that are more closely connected to the theme of Arma 3 Contact’s singleplayer campaign. These might have scripted gameplay functionality within the campaign, but will still be available as cosmetic-only items to players and content creators for use in the Arma 3 sandbox (e.g. multiplayer and scenario editor). Perhaps the most striking of these additions is the gear related to CBRN defense, consisting of over-garments, face masks, and breathing apparatus backpacks.

Lastly, Arma 3 Contact will bring along a variety of free bonus content for everyone who owns Arma 3. Specifically, NATO forces will be able to make use of a new woodland camouflage option providing better concealment in the Livonia terrain. Meanwhile, the local civilian population will see its wardrobe expanded with new outfits for farmers, looters, and scientists. To reinforce content creation, all Arma 3 players will receive more than 100 new terrain assets and decorative objects to use in their projects.

Not shown in this sandbox trailer is the headline act of the spin-off expansion: the story-driven "First Contact" singleplayer campaign. Here, you will take on the role of NATO drone operator, Aiden Rudwell. When a massive alien vessel suddenly enters the Earth’s atmosphere, Specialist Rudwell joins an improvised taskforce and is sent out to investigate the extraterrestrial presence. However, amid the tension and chaos, armed conflict inevitably unfolds.

Arma 3 Contact is expected to land on July 25 and will be made available as DLC for Arma 3 on Steam. You can already pre-order the expansion (with a temporary 10% discount until one week after release), which will grant you immediate Sneak Preview Access to the new Livonia terrain, weapons, and more.

If you are new to Arma 3, you might want to get the Arma 3 Contact Edition or the recently introduced Arma 3 Ultimate Edition, which bundle the Arma 3 base game with Arma 3 DLC at a heavily discounted price.

SITUATION

After several sneaky teasers, the newest Arma 3 expansion was announced to all Earthlings, and is scheduled for arrival on July 25. In today's report we'll provide a recap of all decoded Arma 3 Contact intel, and throw in a few more bits of information. Rounding things out are a look at some technical changes in Contact's 1.94 platform update, as well as how Creator DLC (like Global Mobilization) is going to be updated.

We're excited to present: Arma 3 Contact – a spin-off expansion about the most important discovery in the history of mankind. Scheduled for release on July 25, Arma 3 Contact features a military science fiction singleplayer campaign, which will arrive together with a fresh new sandbox terrain, factions, weapons, vehicles, gear, and more.

In the “First Contact” singleplayer campaign, you'll assume the role of NATO drone operator Aiden Rudwell, who is deployed to Eastern Europe as part of a military training exercise. When a massive alien vessel suddenly enters the atmosphere, you're sent to investigate the extraterrestrial visitors and determine their intentions. However, amid the tension and chaos, armed conflict inevitably unfolds.

Besides its story-driven campaign, the Contact expansion also brings various additions to the greater Arma 3 sandbox. One highlight is the massive new 163 km2 terrain set in the fictional Polish-speaking country of Livonia. With this new locale come two smaller yet capable fighting forces: Livonian Defense Force and Russian Spetsnaz. Furthermore, the expansion packs 5 additional weapons, 2 new vehicles plus variants, extra gear, a wide variety of decorative objects, and more.

Arma 3 Contact is scheduled for release on July 25 and will be distributed as DLC for Arma 3 on Steam. You can now pre-purchase the expansion on Steam with a temporary 10% discount. Also, if you pre-order, you'll gain Sneak Preview Access to the new Livonia terrain as of today. Click here for more information.

If you're new to Arma 3, you should consider getting the Arma 3 Contact Edition, which bundles the Arma 3 base game and Contact expansion at a much lower price than when both are bought separately.
