Summary (AI)

Arma Reforger 1.7 introduces several gameplay adjustments, including reduced strafing inertia and slower movement through thick vegetation. Vehicle handling has been overhauled for more realistic driving, and repair trucks now allow single-player unflipping of vehicles. The FIA faction is now playable in Conflict scenarios, offering a challenging experience as an under-equipped partisan with access to hidden supply caches and deployable spawn tents. Xbox players gain up to 50 GB for mod storage, and Workshop uploads have been improved to reduce errors. Additional fixes and optimizations address crashes from the previous update, with ongoing tuning planned based on community feedback.

Tip: expand all for quick scanning.

Bush slowdown - Characters are no longer able to sprint through bushes as if they don't exist. Thick vegetation slows you down now.
Mod storage - Xbox players can now utilize up to 50 GB of storage space for mods on their consoles.
Mod uploads - Workbench uploads to the Workshop are now split into smaller chunks, improving uploads and significantly reducing errors.
FIA spawns are randomized after the islands have been overrun by US and USSR troops. To make your cause easier for yourself, deploy secret hideouts using the tents obtainable from the hidden arsenal boxes. These hideouts let you spawn anywhere on the battlefield so long as you keep them stocked up on supplies. Hide them well; they might be your only way of keeping your friendlies together.
For any US and USSR troops, traversing the warzones of Arma Reforger has just become a different challenge. From now on, you can never be sure if the FIA enemy manning a checkpoint on your way to the nearest objective is now a real player or not. Stay vigilant, don't get complacent, and stay in the fight!
