It's absolutely huge compared to Stratis. Just opt into dev build and let steam download it.

It's apparently 1.5x bigger than cherneraus from arma 2

Hey peh!
Chernarus = 180km²
Altis = 270km²

Just to let you know the first update is i think 2.5GBand then another 800mb so the stable build whenever this will be released is more than 3GB. Thats so far who knows what other changes and addional content is to be added soon.

Stratis, Huge?!?!? lol

you really want to see how much bigger go on Goggle maps and look up Lemnos Greece (real life Altis) then scroll south a little bit and you'll see the real Stratis

I have noticed that, when it is not modelling something of millitary signifigance the ARMA universe map stays pretty true to real life.

Dev build is getting the rest of the sandbox content (tanks, artillery, static, etc.) next week, they say hopefully September 4th. Models and their coding take almost as much size as a map, so I'd say probably 4+ gigs.

Like frigging monolithic in comparison. I was overwhelmed lol
