demon cleaner 1 Posted May 19, 2011 Quite an interesting choice! From what I know Lemnos is THE military island in Greece. Correct me if I'm wrong ... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dale0404 5 Posted May 19, 2011 I'm currently flying over Lemnos in google Earth. If the level of detail is high enought (and I have no doubt BIS will do a great job), Exploring Lemnos gonna be epic ! I am gonna fly over it on FSX with all the settings maxed out, might post a few screen shots! :p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
icebreakr 3159 Posted May 19, 2011 Real shot above? Isn't that Kamov in the picture, what is it doing in Greece?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Trauma.au 10 Posted May 19, 2011 It's not a Kamov, it's the Mi28 with coaxial rotors that we've now seen in ArmA III screens. And I think it's a real photo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

warden308 0 Posted May 19, 2011 I'm almost 150% certain that's photoshopped... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mankyle 418 Posted May 19, 2011 There are many interesting islands out there in the Aegean Sea Skyros for example would also be a good island for Arma 2. It is not that far from Lemnos, it is the size of Sharani, and has a big city, a couple of village, a very important Air Force base and the terrain is interesting (mainly for infantry warfare) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Greek don't appreciate enthusiasts taking photos of aircraft. lol I mean the environment is a real photo, of course the units are shopped, I can tell by the pixels.

dale0404 5 Posted May 19, 2011 Or maybe the Islands were connected when you are in a mission, just a loading screen to load the new Island but the transition was seamless... :cool: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dmarkwick 261 Posted May 22, 2011 That's a great, great real-world island choice :) I just wish it had more woodland/vegetation. But, I'm in whatever :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Damu 10 Posted May 22, 2011 Maybe we could play another game. :) How many things do you think are photoshopped? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dontknowhow 33 Posted May 22, 2011 Maybe we could play another game. :) How many things do you think are photoshopped? 2 choppers and the smoke Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cctoide 0 Posted May 22, 2011 (edited) Maybe we could play another game. :) How many things do you think are photoshopped? Choppers, the road (too clean and perfect, looks like a repeating texture, no shadows from the grass), the poles (jaggies on the cables, pole on left resembles Chernarus poles). Plus the road people assume this was taken from is unpaved and has no poles, unless it was upgraded after the latest satellite imagery. Also looks like the entire sky might have been swapped out, as the lighting in the grass seems too even and devoid of shadows for what looks like a mostly clear sky. Looks like it might have been taken on a much cloudier day. Edited May 22, 2011 by cctoide Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Daniel 0 Posted May 22, 2011 Maybe we could play another game. :) How many things do you think are photoshopped? Just the smoke, and what i'm gonna say is a Shilka and the two Hind/Hokum/Havocs. There could be a hell of a lot more given the compression rate, I can't say. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tonci87 163 Posted May 22, 2011 I would like to now if there will finally be real rivers in the game. Someone posted a Google Earth Screenshot showing a River on Lemnos. So BIS, will there be a realistic river? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

icebreakr 3159 Posted May 23, 2011 (edited) They have a lot of work ahead ;) I've been hoping to see Lefkas, but Lemnos will do :) At least we'll have building assets ;) Edited May 23, 2011 by IceBreakr Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mr.g-c 6 Posted May 23, 2011 They have a lot of work ahead ;) Jesus.... i suspect frame-rates way below 30 in such 1:1 modeled cities - at least with current OA engine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ArmAriffic 10 Posted May 23, 2011 Jesus.... i suspect frame-rates way below 30 in such 1:1 modeled cities - at least with current OA engine. There is a new engine, maybe severely optimized so A3 can actually be played. Otherwise in that city I will get like 1 FPS Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rye1 21 Posted May 23, 2011 Imagine trying to point out a target... "Yeah, the white house... with the orange roof... oh I give up". Hopefully it will be optimised and there will be more water aspects (e.g. rivers, streams, and bridges over them). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
