Max255 59 Posted March 31, 2011 (edited) And there we go... :) Looks nice so far... EDIT: I have one complain so far - it seems like the MD500 is using sound from MD520N - which is totally different, lacks that high pitched noise produced by tail rotor...

Undeceived 392 Posted March 31, 2011 I think this quote needs to be posted again. I think the point is that it depends what they lead one to believe. With the posts on the Arma 2 FB page and not on the BI FB page one could think that it is A2 related. Thus one could concentrate himself only on Arma 2 and expect something for this game. This is the way I think. If there was a more neutral approach (e.g. posts on the BI FB page) I would be open for whatever BI might produce. But I really am glad to hear that BI have the possibilities to introduce a new game - this is very good for them! On the other hand an ep2 would be AWESOME! :) *waits* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
roberthammer 582 Posted March 31, 2011 If i saw good - it using RV (ArmA2) engine - so no big surprise Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[frl]myke 14 Posted March 31, 2011 Well, if this newly gained knowledge will help BIS to fix the helicopter related bugs in another Game they've made, count me in. If not...well, i can wait. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dale0404 5 Posted March 31, 2011 I do play FSX but have never flown a helicopter in that game, this might twist my arm... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rksl-rock 1300 Posted March 31, 2011 (edited) Since this is in the "Other games" forum we can assume this isn't a "plugin" or can't cross over into ArmA2 then? Its actually a completely separate game derived from ArmA2 engine? Edited March 31, 2011 by RKSL-Rock clarification Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mosh 0 Posted March 31, 2011 (edited) PC Gamer article just posted. :) Well that tweaked my interest a little... can't say I was overwhelmed at first though. EDIT - but I do like sims, although FSX is enough for me in that genre I'll still buy this to support BIS Congrats BIS, I hope all goes well with this project of course too.
