ArmA 2 site hacked

Recommended Posts

If it's indeed an expansion, hope the standard is OA or better with thermal mapping done on previous units as well. Finger cross.......and can't wait for the announcement whatever it is.

Just trying to sum up all the clues so far...

terrain assets. So, based on the above it's likely we're looking at ARMA 2: Operation Green Sea expansion?

Alternatively, could BIS be about to launch a new Naval Warfare simulator?

More like called Operation Freedom or Free something...

think about that "Arma2Free" file

I would love to have a campaign like OFPR, where you lead a small force with mostly crappy weapons (like pistol, shotgun, IED even molotov-cocktail) again superior enemy

We - www.teamkommando.de - have a multiplayer coop-mission where we play as terrorists, trying to disturb blufor-missions. at the beginning we have nearly no weapons, trying to get ´em from the blues.

we dont play that mission often, but sometimes when we feel like it.

we can plant IEDs, steel weapons, have to wait for long times for convois aso.

Whilst I in one way would love that to be an ingame image, I also don't want it to be, as it would spell the end of my machine being able to smoothly run ArmA...

A new expansion would be nice, there's a lot of Greek links in the "clues", but the location of Limnos in the Aegean isn't as tactically important as say Crete....

Limnos is completely surrounded by "Friendly" forces, unless it's Turkey invading, plus the very nature of the Greek isles means any sea-bound approach would be highly dangerous, and easily repelled with some good shore to ship defenses....

Strange....

+1 real photo

Ha, of course it's a real photo. Assuming BIS are recreating Lemnos to some extent, i'd say they probably picked it because they like the island, not because of its strategic importance. That can be managed by whatever back story they come up with. It's even likely they'd rename it and plonk it in their Green Sea or some new fictional region.

And at 477km sq it would be a damn nice Island to play around on!!!

I'm hyped up once again. ;)

Is betting allowed on this forum? I'd bet a fortune that's an in-game screenshot, and the ones from the first incursion with alleged Spukayev's hideout location in RL Krasnostav are also CGI with RV3 / ArmA 3 engine. :cc:

I get the impression that you people can't run Chernarus @ max. settings, which make various landscapes at certain TODs look like... oh, boy - photo-realistic. I like quoting myself to reiterate, so -

1) Go out, take images of the original Krasnostav landscape;

2) Use these high-res photos to render the in-game world with a new feature render-to-texture;

3) Go to the same place in-game, take screenshots;

4) Geotag 'em;

5) ???;

6) Someone rushes off into the wilderness of CZ to look for who-knows-what;

7) trollface-emoticon-4.gif

The first hack image, Nothing struck me as being CGI or ingame shots. But i guess if the greek airfield picture is ingame, then why couldnt BIS do what they've done to that... to A2

I think you could end up losing a lot of money :p It's not an in game photo, the lighting and details and what not are just too life like to be any game engine.

Flat textures on the ground around the treasure glory hole, unnatural haze & blur in the distance. trollface-emoticon-4.gif

Have you ever seen RL photos as a promotion for a BIS game? You don't place a photograph into a composite of several ArmA 2 / Operation Arrowhead screenshots and tell me it's not in-game.

Who dares, wins. ;)

You know what I'm talking about: RL Chernarus, Taki(Tajiki-, Afghani-, Baluchi-, Any-)stan just before announcement/game release. Photography won't sell it, I, on the other hand, was sold on the vegeration of Northern Sahrani in Armed Assault 1, even though, I preferred Southern Sahrani in the game due to the amount of trees present in the North, killing FPS. :cc:

It's unfortunate there seems to be no rule about trolling.

They haven't announced anything yet, so it's not that illogical that they're not showing us actual screenshots.

I'm for real, you'll be laughing when you get to go down a river in a boat across Lemnos with a new physics engine. Mark my words. ;)

The outline of the island is fit for sub/naval warfare, why not introduce streams for getting around the some-400 km^2 island? You know people always wanted rivers in the game. :)
