Is this update ok to use with Operation Star etc.

[Dane49]

Is better suitable than previous version to be something like this

Did this get fixed in the new update?

The update should work with all your DLCs.They work with mine.

Hooper is a very good DLC.I think you'll enjoy it.

I didn't think I'd be interested in an Angolan War DLC seeing as I wasn't very familiar with the conflict,but I'm having a lot of fun with the modern weapons and tropical terrain.

I'm definately looking forward to more modern DLCs eventhough WW2 is still my favorite theme.

What fixed?
Now reeds and rushes something like this.

[Dane49]

OK,

The reeds were changed on purpose for the March 13 patch.I didn't know that.

I thought it was a bug or an oversight.

I liked the old reeds better,but it doesn't bother me enough to wish them changed.

Old reeds is  small dry reeds in _winter_, not summer.
Like or not like but in summer reeds are big and green
