Daniel 0 Posted June 15, 2011 -Luc-, i'd say if your PC can handle Arma 2 well, there's every chance you'll be able to at least play Arma 3, all be it with lowered graphic options. And how on earth do you expect BIS to better their games without increasing the requirements? It wouldn't make sense. That's what Arrowhead and DLCs were for: to squeeze the most out of Real Virtuality 3. Those same requirements (thankfully) wont hold back RV 4. I've managed on the same machine for Arma 1 and 2, I think it's fair to buy a new one for Arma 3, Take On and Carrier Command. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smookie 11 Posted June 15, 2011 I will be happy to play ArmA3 as long as there will be a competitive scene existing. The moment I am forced to play valhalla/domination clones being nearly the only public maps available - it's over (how long can you torture yourself?) :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Binkowski 25 Posted June 15, 2011 despite the fact that i don't like the futuristic approach and don't agree with some stuff in arma3 i'm still going to get it. and all the dlcs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
-Luc- 10 Posted June 15, 2011 Hi, A lot of assumptions being made here...You should know that, given enough time, ArmA3 will be modded just as much as any of the other previous games. So maybe 3 or 4 years down the road (when you'll need a new computer anyway unless you're stuck in the past playing ArmA2 with the measly 100 or so people who will still be playing online) you'll consider upgrading your PC and buying ArmA3. Never say never. You know, I followed that series of games since the beginning. I am disappointed and sad... When you lose something unique in what you have a lots of hope, is like that. Perhaps it's emotional, but the disappointment is up to the expectations. *** OFP and ARMA2 are unique. Everything suggests that ARMA3 will be a flashy super lonewolf teenager game as the others... I will not follow this time. *** To be honest with you, when I buy a new computer is mainly for games. I am certainly not alone. WORD runs on a 486 ...

froggyluv 2130 Posted June 15, 2011 Can't come fast enough for me. In fact, waiting for it has now taken my interest away from Arm2. I was trying a very well made new mission by Sick1 and upon my first shot, noticed the enemy just standing their unflinchingly asorbing my bullets with red puffs appearing... ...I can't wait for ragdoll/new animations!

Big Dawg KS 6 Posted June 15, 2011 Regarding DLC; do you all remember when BIS announced the first DLC for ArmA 2 and how many people bitched about it and said they would never buy any DLC? Well as always it looks like people were just hating for the sake of hating... Everyone wants DLC for ArmA 3 now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KEVINMGXP 20 Posted June 15, 2011 All it says is that they don't know if DLCs will be released. read again and again! Sometimes reading between the lines helps m8 ;-) spanel said clearly that ongoing support will be given for ArmA3 but that he does not know if this will be given in a form of stand allone expansion or dlc release, but we will be doing something like this, and so yes it has been a success for Arma 2, and it was a good move. Our userbase reacted well to it. so yeah dlc and ongoing expansions will be buyed by me ;-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Big Dawg KS 6 Posted June 15, 2011 (edited) Is it a forum? Can we express our opinions freely? Yea, you expressed your opinion and I responded with mine. And yes I know it was disrespectful, that was intentional. Why? Because you are clearly being ignorant, and I hate ignorant people. If that was your honest opinion of what ArmA 3 will be like, then you haven't been paying proper attention to any of the media.

160thSOAR 10 Posted June 15, 2011 I love the concept of the game, and I would certainly buy it if I thought my computer was up to it. Right now, I have ArmA2 down to lowest settings. My computer can handle quite a bit higher but it might overheat. It's a MacBook Pro from like 2007 though. I really don't think it will be able to handle ArmA 3. That's my cent - I'm saving the other one to buy a new computer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bangtail 0 Posted June 15, 2011 I'm playing Devil's advocate a little here but some of you seem to think that it's some sort of blasphemy to vote 'no'. Tbh, I'm not a huge fan of the premise etc of A3, I'll buy it for the editor but the future nonsense doesn't appeal to me at all (I would have rather seen a Nam based campaign for example). Now, if someone is basing their decision to buy the game on SP/Campaign content and they don't happen to appreciate the futuristic nature of the game, why would they buy it? Most of us here like and appreciate BIS but I'm not sold on this direction in terms of theme/content. As usual, I look at it as an easel and a canvas but I don't think anyone should be persecuted for a 'no' vote. That's their right at the end of the day.

The only thing remotely close to indicating something like that is when they said you'd have the option to do lone wolf or commander style missions or playing style in the campaign. Neither OFP nor ArmA2 were the pinnacle of realism when they came out, but with mods they are great games. What makes you think that ArmA3 with realism mods is going to be any worse? You say the forums are good for posting opinions, and my opinion is that you fail. Hard. Because you are assuming way to much about a game that hasn't even been released, and you aren't even taking into consideration mods. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
