purepassion 22 Posted March 18, 2013 (edited) "Arma 3 - The only shooter you will ever need" Eurogamer.de Arma 3 is surely one of the most interesting games of 2013 - that is without even knowing the campaign plot, the mission design and other bigger and smaller gameplay details. Few other titles of the past five years gathered around such an active community as Arma 2 did. With a insistency as if it would be the only game in existence, fans provided the military-sandbox with fresh mission ideas and mods that set new trends and captured gamer fantasies of hundreds of hours. Though the love for the game did not appear out of thin air. It is the result of an incredibly solid and forward-looking grounding which was created by Bohemia Interactive with full purpose and without any regard to losses. Arma 3 does not make an impression this design-philosophy has changed. It's hard to imagine what will grow and prosper on the back of this impressive engine in the following months and years.

There’s no such person, so you’re not missing out on his sage wisdom. And Arma 3 is pretty easy to have fun with. Here’s what people have been up to Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

purepassion 22 Posted April 13, 2013 "Arma 3 Hands On Impressions" justpushstart.com The step from Arma 2 to 3 is simply said to be an improvement. By no means am I good at playing Arma 3, but I feel less daunted by the game than previous titles in the franchise. It seems more accessible and a lot of issues that players have had with the last game have been addressed. It goes some way to inviting new players to the series whilst keeping itself true for the long time fans. Arma 3 is a military simulator at the end of the day but one that many will enjoy. If you think you might, buy the alpha now and become part of the games development. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

purepassion 22 Posted June 7, 2013 Arma 3 screenshots prepare you for E3 by showing the full game and beta PC Gamer.com Technically all Arma 3 screenshots have been pre-E3, but these ones are the most pre-E3. Or are they the least? Whatever the semantics, here’s a gallery of tactically telling pictures, taken both from the full game and the upcoming beta. Arma 3 screenshots make the case for rebuilding reality in Bohemia's engine PC GamesN I've heard some pretty convincing cases against photorealism. Most of them go a bit like this: a more stylistic approach will be cheaper, provide more opportunities for inventive expression, and keep us safely on this side of the uncanny canyon. Today, though, I'm not really interested in hearing another. I've just seen the latest batch of Arma 3 screenshots, and they're gorgeous. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chortles 263 Posted June 12, 2013 “Accessible, but not dumbed downâ€: hands-on with the ARMA 3 beta Bohemia Interactive missed opportunities to make ARMA more accessible for players in the past, and the franchise’s third iteration is a chance to amend that trend, the company’s creative director told games.on.net today.In a hands-on demo on the E3 show floor, creative director Jay Crowe said the company wants to make the game much more accessible, but denies the game has been dumbed-down at all. “There’s definitely no desire to dumb it down because…we need to be unique. The game has the squad commands, the complexity, and sense of player’s autonomy.†“These are things that make it stand out from things like Call of Duty and Battlefield, the studios which do linear games much better than we would do, or would ever want to do.†Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
