How would you want one to answer a question about a product that is not even ANNOUNCED?

There is no content presented on AAN that is part of a future BIS product.

I meant more of is that something that is possible? Can you use things from a different engine and implement them into a new one (assuming A3 was on a new engine). Whatever it's a pointless question because you're right nothings been announced, who knows what we'll get.

I did think it was strange that they would show that on ANN but then never release it...what is the point of having it to begin with then...

That's the reason why I believe Pufu or Darkiron are BIS spy :cool:

Stay close to the facts, nice to have some cool guy here as MadDogX or ArmAriffic trying to gather community knowledge.

I'm not spy ...

Try engage brain, so as to interpret his post correctly.

Here it is for you, step by step:

This is the image he is about:

http://www.aan-online.com/images/stories/news/jac_img17.jpg

If there was an A3

not certain about a future A3, but he points out there might be a possibility to it.

would it be compatible with A2 stuff?

question towards you/me etc (since by now it is obvious there is no BI dev answer in this thread) about a product there is no information about in the end

I mean the main reason I'm confused with all the A3 talk is the screenshots from places like AAN that depict a game world (summer Chernarus)

SummerVegetation

and units (woodland Czech SF) that are the same as A2 units but have never been released.

could that be also an addon?

EDIT:

I meant more of is that something that is possible? Can you use things from a different engine and implement them into a new one (assuming A3 was on a new engine). Whatever it's a pointless question because you're right nothings been announced, who knows what we'll get.

If it is a 3d model, no matter what file format it is, it can be moved from one game engine to another. The basics are the same.

maybe...but is farfetched. The post is dated 21.09.2010

Dated of the pmc annoucement and armex show not new ... not arma III or other addons ....

"stay close" is a good rules (number 12 for Gibbs )

I've seen summer vegetation, maybe it's just me but it doesn't look the same as above. Just forget it though, no point in bringing it up anymore. I guess we'll just wait and see.

Yep, already documented here. Interesting that our Persian friend should choose a thread asking whether BIS maps are modifiable.

Haha, this Greek stuff! Should really have the enigma wiki as a pop up when you open this thread. :p

We have a lot of speculations here, theory's about whether it is a Announcement for ArmA3 or not.

As far as the speculations goes we also got hints that are pointing out to various aspects of a possible new content, whether it is DLC or just a update with free content or even the Announcement of ArmA3 is at this point not clear. I strongly WANT to believe at this point that it will be a total new game, like already stated before by others.

The reason why i have this strong believes? The tips are pointing out to what i think is to drastical engine changes on the entire game, they might have the possible resources to update the current engine but then again why do that when you can bring something different and better when starting from ground zero? Bis brought us so far GREAT content but we need to be honnest that the Arma2 also chares a various lot of buggers, the good part on having bugs is they have learned much from their previous engine and will do better on the next one. I am still speclative " thats the only thing i can do " at this point, never the less what i think is that bis will bring us a larger update of the Current ArmA2 and iron out the bugs that they still have, they will keep working on the current content to improve it to a surtain dagree and they might even pore in free content as a treat for 10 years support of the bis community.

In the mean while they will announce there new Project ArmA3 (SPECULATIVE) with the new possibilities that the new engine

will provide in the near future.

Why do i think this? plain and simple the tips point out towards too drastic changes, the resent use of the engine in a other game by a other devoloper besides of ArmA2 (BIS). So far is did not saw any game that used the futures of the ArmA2 engine in other games ( i might be wrong here doh ) but bis was very protective towards this engine and if i was on the same spot i would have don the same. They might sold or coorperate with that game devoloper to use ArmA2 engine or even get a persentage on the sold items of that game they are making now.

The tips also point out towards an entire new theatre and play ground to start from, although al this is again still speculation and dream talk till we know what is realy going on.

But i might be very close to the truth :D

Kind regards

But what about an ASCII image with a ball breaking a wall? You can't just add physics into a game where they don't exist in a simple patch/expansion....
