LAUNCHER-BASED SERVER BROWSER
With a new Server Browser integrated directly into the Arma 3 Launcher, you can skip the Arma 3 main menu, and more easily jump into the multiplayer server of your choice.
Quickly search for a server by selecting the desired game mode, terrain, player numbers, difficulty, and more – and use the tick boxes to hide full, empty, or monetized servers.
When joining a multiplayer session, the Server Browser will check for mods running on the server, and offers you an automatic download of missing mods that are published to the Steam Workshop.

AUDIO UPGRADE
An overhauled low-level audio engine and the corresponding enhanced configuration of sound effects were applied to shooting and explosions.
Dynamically mixed samples are now used for combat sounds heard at various distances, vastly enhancing your sense of direction and immersion during combat.
This part of the new audio technology provides a smoother transition between ambient sound and positional audio, used primarily for reflection tails.
