Is this by BIS or under their sanction? Or is this a private entrprise, i.e. mods/addons for a cost? Do we need or want these? |

Yea I saw that. You would have thunk that they could of given us a top view of the "NEW" island, huh? And I take it to be a stand alone map/island as I know of NO coast on the ones we play now. Or am I missing something here? |

I suppose it's worth just having a new map on the server that may draw additional intrest. For 10 dollars, and with all the added extras not mentioned that are included in the package should make for a good night of ducking bullets. But before I can do that though, I need to re-cooperate from pc repairs and buying OA.
Hope to see you all real soon.
All the Best! |
