The new content is called Private Military Company, as it will allow players to go all ~~Blackwater~~ Xe Services, and word is it is focused on cooperative play: "The whole campaign is co-op multiplayer compatible. Instead of creating set of loosely connected campaign, single player and multiplayer scenarios, we focused solely upon a cooperative campaign. All missions will be playable in two-player co-op, giving you the opportunity to invite your friend and share your progress.

What it does have though, is a brain dead, always cheating AI and horrible physics. If you ever drove a Tank or vehicle in arma 2 you know what i mean Surely its a fun game in MP with good group of players. But in SP the game is just plain crap. I still fondly remember that 1 mission where you have to blow a bridge - with tanks falling down the entire way... and not "dieing" So there were about 5 enemy vehicles down in the water shooting at me. And in the rare event a downed bridge works the enemy always magically knew where i was even though i was perfectly hidden. But the best is still being forced to drive in an AI vehicle and the AI being stuck in a curve or corner. Or ramming head on an ally tank. Or driving down a cliff, seen it all. And lastly of course, the AI not engaging the enemy properly. With the player often having 50+ kills and the AI 2 or 3. Its like we get a different even more broken AI when we have squad mates. Maybe they fix it in Arma 3.... one can still dream!
