SF Arctic:
AA:SF (Downrange) will include two new multiplayer maps. One of these maps is "SF Arctic". But don't let the snow fool you. This is a fast-paced map that will keep you on your toes. Here's the situation: a coalition forces convoy struck an Improvised Explosive Device (IED), leaving their vehicles immobilized on a high-altitude mountain road. Your SF A-Team, supported by friendly IF, must protect the convoy from resistance forces known to be operating in the area. Assisting your SF A-Team is the Stryker, strategically placed in overwatch positions. With a near-infinite number of spots offering cover and concealment, the Z action is awesome. For those that enjoy maps that demand strong leadership and teamwork, SF Arctic won't disappoint.

Introducing: Sun Flares:
Sun flares portray the real-life effects that you see when looking toward the direction of the sun. Their introduction has a really exciting impact on gameplay and in a variety of ways.

When looking in the direction of the sun, this has a slight-to-moderate impact on your character's vision. Sun flares add a much greater immersiveness to the game, brightening-up your gamma momentarily. Needless to say, sun flares have a much greater impact on certain levels/missions. They are not limited to SF-only maps and are expected to be retro-fitted to previous/existing maps.
