2027 is a ways off, but Reforger has improved quite a bit and should be enough to hold folks over until then. I do wonder how this will affect mods; Will mod creators delay creating new mods until 4 is out?

Pretty sure Bohemia specifically said that they were planning to stop doing anything with reforger as it was a testing platform for modders and the like.

I specifically didn't buy it knowing it was a precancelled project and I'm fairly confident that the reforger mods will be transferrable to Arma4.

That said, ARMA4

For sure. Reforger was always meant to be a stepping stone to Arma 4.

What you said regarding mods is why I'm wondering how the modding community will react to the news. If mods are transferable to Arma 4, I would think mod development would continue. But I've seen some say they haven't put any effort into modding Reforger because it's just a stepping stone game.
