Tonci87 163 Posted July 1, 2011 well I'm trying to look up the article but google is not giving me the damn link so far, they where in no way special forces, they where regular army i pretty sure of that. But like i said it might be a single time or whatever, its a couple of moths back that i saw it when i was looking for some info on the Scar variants. I think you are right, they were given to some units for testing I think. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Valiant 1-4 10 Posted July 1, 2011 So Limnos is 2.4 times bigger than Takistan. Therefore 393.6 km2 Im also pretty sure in the E3 coverage i hear the guy say its their biggest island they have modeled to date? But Sahrani is 400 km2, so... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Max255 59 Posted July 1, 2011 Sahrani is 400km2 including waters around it, Lemnos 390km2 is only landmass :) It was said with all the area around it will be 900km2. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

eymerich 11 Posted July 2, 2011 It's just me or watching the video there is no a significant improvment in graphic? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Maio 293 Posted July 2, 2011 It's just me or watching the video there is no a significant improvment in graphic? The video is filmed off screen so it's hard to tell , but most reviewers praised it's photo realism ( IGN , gaming shogun, ripten , games radar , etc ) I'm still hoping for a screen capture version of the demo :D .

You could just look at the released screenshots. :p Though they do have this brownish color filter which doesnt look very nice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Big Dawg KS 6 Posted July 2, 2011 It's just me or watching the video there is no a significant improvment in graphic? Is that a problem? Overall, the screenshots look good. Whether or not they changed a whole lot from ArmA 2; who cares... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
purepassion 22 Posted July 2, 2011 @Eymerich ehhmm you must have watched some 480p videos, otherwise i can explain it to me... This looks like a stunning improvement to me! just look at things like object draw distance etc Ohh and you also have to note that, during E³ you just saw the DX10 version. DX11 will follow later ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Przemek_kondor 14 Posted July 3, 2011 It's just me or watching the video there is no a significant improvment in graphic?I noticed one (IMHO the most important one in graphic) in one of the videos - that the HDR changes are much less drastical - even when player started looking at the bright sky (following heli) visibility was ok (no more too dark screen).

purepassion 22 Posted July 3, 2011 yeah, thats the negative point... better visuals require better hardware. But in general you can expect an much more optimised game than Arma 2. and regarding the lottery, well who knows? ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NeMeSiS 11 Posted July 3, 2011 (edited) yeah, thats the negative point... better visuals require better hardware. But in general you can expect an much more optimised game than Arma 2. Interestingly enough people alse said that when we went from ArmA1 to ArmA2. :rolleyes: Now i wouldnt be suprised if ArmA3 ran better than the same as ArmA2 1.0, but noone will compare it like that.

Valiant 1-4 10 Posted July 3, 2011 Optimisation is indeed key, im tired of having to spend so much doe in upgrading, like moreso than usual, and when i do even then not getting full performance. A2 was a total hog, but i dont blame trees, i love forest settings. Takistans desert was a bit bland and felt like a cop out. But yes the hills and angle were still great.

Maio 293 Posted July 3, 2011 I've added a fan made video breakdown of the E3 presentation to the video list because it was nicely done . I also added hovercraft to the sort of confirmed list . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CarlGustaffa 4 Posted July 4, 2011 ..them all. just to finish your sentence ;) Yeah I don't think anyone will claim that Daggerfalls area was particularly interesting or detailed (I recently tried without fast travel - damn that took a while!). But Oblivion is more detailed than Arma, but also smaller, and also feels cramped artificially tight probably to allow shorter draw distances. But this is Nirn, another planet, so I guess we can't scream too much when devs take certain freedoms. Biggest game I ever explored was Elite II Frontier. Naturally you can't go in real time, but a whole galaxy? And I did explore to the other end of the galaxy just to have done it - took a while :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ArmAriffic 10 Posted July 7, 2011 (edited) NOT confimed but in the credits for OA it says "Mando Missile Systems approved by US Department of Defence at todays hearing; Navy and Air Force to implement systems by 2012", my guess is we may be getting an official MMA :) Edited July 7, 2011 by ArmAriffic Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
