I don't have it but I think it looks pretty good for the price and people are saying they copied the cup weapons but they don't look anything like them most of the content I seen looks and sounds much better than cup
BI's latest CSLA cDLC is mostly Arma 2 and even Arma 3 vanilla assets retextured + Lots of bugs. I am not saying a lot of work didn't go into it because the map looks good but the sounds, the models, the lack of jets etc... Everyone had high hopes for this, at least quality on part to previous cDLCs. I Imagine that BI themselves should come out in a few days with the following statement: "In light of the recent events, and the state of the latest cDLC, we are inclined to compensate not only the buyers but also our loyal community and so anyone who has bought the cDLC will be able to get another cDLC of their choosing (50% discount on SOG) on us and CSLA will become a beta now and free for anyone in a year from now when hopefully all issues are resolved, this is also our gift considering the cDLC portraits our homeland and we want all our players to be able to experience it in its fullest, sincerely yours, BOHE*** INTER*****". That is the only thing they could do to compensate years of hype for this cDLC only to let its fans down completely again.
It‘s really sad to see how this DLC ended. ČSLA mods have huge tradition in Czech and Slovak OPF/Arma community. First iteration came out on Operation Flashpoint and it was really great mod which later even expanded to AČR (Army of Czech Republic). Lots of weapons, vehicles and whole campaign. Great times. By the way its still available on Moddb. Next iteration for first Arma was a basically just graphical upgrade, however only 12 SP mission was present. The best version was without doubt a version for Arma 2: CO. 3 factions, 27 SP missions, 12 MP missions and big full fledged SP campaign ‘89 with 60 missions, cutscenes, voice action and 3 different ending. This was definitely highlight of this mod series. So it’s really sad to see that mod team failed to build on previous success. Maybe it’s because a lot of original mod developers went to work for Bohemia Interactive. Maybe. But if nothing more, go try out Arma 2 version of ČSLA. It’s great, it’s free and it’s still available on Moddb.
I think the Soviet-Afghan War would be a good idea, but what we really need is an enormous DLC that adds all the coldwar theaters of war. Global Mobilization with its recent big update is a great start.
You are not going to find the Tatra T-815, or DANA SpGH or the armored V3S in RHS. Iron Curtain does have some unique vehicles not seeing in any existing mod.
Thing lot of people miss, is that its not about the US, technically they are supposed to be sort OPFOR faction in this situation and the focus is on CSLA units (hence the name). It started as mod for Operation Flashpoint as having Czech and Slovak faction in theme of cold war since that was the conflict in Operation Flashpoint. Many Czechs and Slovaks at that time remembered their service in CSLA or just knew it from films and movies. It is something czechs and slovaks build for them self and probably was not considered to appeal to foreigners. There is a fan community around CSLA for almost 20 years and this is simply must for us. But when people looks at CSLA as another eastern faction and easily don't see difference between soviet troops I can see how that makes no difference and just go for RHS and CUP. But that is not the solution for czech and slovak players. And considering the creators worked on this for 20 years for free, the literary lunch money for this dls is hardly too much to ask for. And its sad that people who were not the target audience to begin with give it low reviews, because they don't understand what this mod is about.
I don’t think that’s the reason for hate maybe because of these poor work on some aspects: -helicopter damage model is none existent -tank turret spins like beyblade -when on the exterior turret of a tank/arc, free-look down to your legs -apparently stealing a car for a hot ride is a mission
Thank you so much for this review, this is probably the most honest video I've seen (on such an unpopular topic). Glad to see it though! Several hours into the DLC and enjoy I thoroughly and have seen all the points you've discussed.
@@nicohola6172 uh... Maybe when the new game comes, usualy on A3 winter maps or are fucking bright or it mkes you feel like your floating clouds... It is *kinda* hard to get it right. But i do agree with you, cause right now the only dlc with a winter map is the GM DLC and even if i do like the map, is not the best :/
I haven't tried this DLC. And if I need to command a squad for a good portion of the missions, I'm very unlikely to get it. I really dislike being a squad leader. I don't want the headache of dealing with commanding AI squadmates. I just get overwhelmed and the game then looses its appeal. I just want to be a grunt and told where to go and what to do.
@@TheRunaway115 Bohemia oversaw this project. Just like with the other paid DLC. They signed off on this project to release man. With it's current state they should have told the team that it's not up to standards.
@@michaelmartin2763 Oh yeah, that much I knew.I just misinterpreted your comment as you placing full blame on them. i was sitting here like "It's not bohemias problem that this cdlc is shit, its their fault for letting it be released". Yeah, I can totally agree with you on that one.
Imagine I be telling BI that I wanna publish a CDLC about modern Russian military then I just re-texture some RHS assets and boom guys! Your money please!
7:45 Well now that you mention it, I would like to see a cold war ww3 scenario in poland, be it polish resistance against the warsaw pact, or NATO forces against Polish People's Army.
Personally I think its a good effort by Bohemia to entertain the community but its honestly grade A garbage. I would have a higher opinion if not for RHS and CUP being completely free. Edit: My friend just told me anytime he selects any weapon variant with a grenade launcher in CSLA, his game crashes.
check out Shield 84 štít 84 to get some inspiration. I only played old demo for OP Flashpoint, then Arma I, I did not lie the flying, felt too arcadey and unrealistic when it came to physics.
Still no desert city DLC, I mean iraq would be nice but if we got a Syria or even something like Oman DLC that would be something arma is missing. All the desert city community maps are not up to arma 3 quality sadly.
Kidal is very good. Never had any issues on Kidal. I’d say it’s not too far from BI quality. The remade (new) versions of Fallujah are good if you haven’t tried any of them too but still not BI quality. Lot of good desert maps as well that don’t have a “big city” per se but have very dense population around a large area, some of which are definitely BI quality. Names blank off the top of my head tbh Also a new one that came out recently called Al Basrah. Not that big but has great detail, worth checking out
guys Bohemia didnt make this. its part of the CDLC content make by Arma modders. It has some bugs but for $10 its worth it. Just skip McDonalds or starbucks for one day.
they *did* QA the DLC, like all of the CDLC. Why did they sign off on this DLC that 98% of the assets are arma 2 ports and exist in tons of free workshop mods
Yes absolutely. The issue is that Bohemia stands behind this. On the CDLC page FAQ Bohemia says their purpose is to help with QA and make sure the DLC’s meet a standard before being published. This dlc certainly doesn’t - to see even more mistakes with the DLC you can’t watch Rimmy’s video on it. It just doesn’t even look complete.
The crown is mad, and they demand better quality dlc, well then, make Iron curtain free and make RHS paid :), i think that solves the issue, alright, byyyye

What do you guys think of Iron Curtain?
It looks terrible. It’s sad that Bohemia would stand behind a product that most people seem to agree is worse in quality than free mods.

Can I get arma free
Download?
@@whendashow6935 people are complaining cause they took arma 2 assets and just changed textures n shit

We need a China DLC for arma 3 that has the ZTZ96. Would love to see more modern stuff.

Some Korean War stuff would be dope!
You know I had the same thought back in arma 2. If I knew how to make stuff for the game I’d absolutely work on it
BlueDragons vs RedDragons, hmm not a bad idea at all
i think we need a winter map and a full DLC with cold war
@@nicohola6172 uh... Maybe when the new game comes, usualy on A3 winter maps or are fucking bright or it mkes you feel like your floating clouds... It is *kinda* hard to get it right.

No not worth it at all. Reused assets from arma 2 and CUP. Embarrassing how Bohemia would even release this in it's current state
You say that like Bohemia made it

Operation acid gambit comes to mind as soon as I saw the delta guys.
Independence war in Bosnia and Croatia, some adriatic coast map combined with mountain inland
Imagine I be telling BI that I wanna publish a CDLC about modern Russian military then I just re-texture some RHS assets and boom guys! Your money please!
They didn’t even retexture it
7:45 Well now that you mention it, I would like to see a cold war ww3 scenario in poland, be it polish resistance against the warsaw pact, or NATO forces against Polish People's Army.
Some Operation Just cause of the Panamanian gear And weapons would be nice, is often ignored even though it was the Last cold conflict of the 80's
Well S&S new wave has the badass looking ragtop PASGT helmet and several 1980s US army pieces of equipment. :)
Personally I think its a good effort by Bohemia to entertain the community but its honestly grade A garbage. I would have a higher opinion if not for RHS and CUP being completely free.
Edit: My friend just told me anytime he selects any weapon variant with a grenade launcher in CSLA, his game crashes.
I think creator DLC's are not by Bohemia, but by independent teams
After further review the content isn’t that bad really; I can really see around and it’s not too bad it acceptable for what it’s doing.
check out Shield 84 štít 84 to get some inspiration. I only played old demo for OP Flashpoint, then Arma I, I did not lie the flying, felt too arcadey and unrealistic when it came to physics.
Umm mod/mission/campaign idea: Red Dawn! No one has made a mod from the original movie!
no
Antistasi with Soviets as the occupation force. Done.
Still no desert city DLC, I mean iraq would be nice but if we got a Syria or even something like Oman DLC that would be something arma is missing. All the desert city community maps are not up to arma 3 quality sadly.
the desert city maps are good maps. desert cities just suck.
Well lemme tell you about this new cdcl
Kidal is very good. Never had any issues on Kidal. I’d say it’s not too far from BI quality.
The remade (new) versions of Fallujah are good if you haven’t tried any of them too but still not BI quality.

4:54 Sounds like a nitpick on the tree assets but okay.
i want to see the dersert storm op
me too!!!
I miss this game so much, I need to buy a new PC
this vid was uploaded on my 13th birthday
i want multiplayer for this
my question is are they going to add multiplayer srry for asking a lot
Bought it but cant even understand how to launch it
how are we spelling Roche? Rosche?
how do u even play it i downloaded it but cant find it
Iron Curtain needs to be enabled in the DLC tab of the launcher
is there mulitplayer
Having played both CSLA mods for OFP and Arma 2, this CDLC is damn embarrasing.
They should of made this only 5$ max. It’s a cool little mod but not worth anymore than 5 US dollars tbh
i got iron curtain and it wont give me any content i was promised!!
guys Bohemia didnt make this. its part of the CDLC content make by Arma modders. It has some bugs but for $10 its worth it. Just skip McDonalds or starbucks for one day.

How is it worth $10 when you can get it for free from the various mods these assets were stolen from
The crown is mad, and they demand better quality dlc, well then, make Iron curtain free and make RHS paid :), i think that solves the issue, alright, byyyye
exactly, they did this for 20 years for free and now ask for 10 bucks and everyone goes apeshit.
So... Um.. RHS and CUP.... Um.. LOL not buying cold war content
THIS DLC IS TRASH DONT GET IT
