kylania 567 Posted August 16, 2012 Simple waypoints were sometimes not clearly visible in the speed when they change every 100 meters or so, so additional 3D helpers were added. I'd have preferred something along the lines of "There are many turns in the route, so make sure you consult your map and plan your maneuvers accordingly" over floating helpers, but I understand "new user" concerns. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

onlyrazor 11 Posted August 16, 2012 kylania, you are a better troll than I am!! and i am damn good, ask vespa;) It's true, he's actually trolling right now! Wait, wait, wait. Is there any BIS dev at all that is currently working on Arma 3 instead of trolling the community? I eagerly await Maruk or somebody to come up and say "nope".

Vespa 1 Posted August 16, 2012 Maruk just called and he says we are both fired. So there will be no animations in Arma3, sry :( Maybe later as DLC. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well, look on the bright side - he successfully trolled the community and developers in one fell swoop. That's a winner in my book. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NoRailgunner 0 Posted August 16, 2012 BIS GC staff have to follow strict rules in Cologne = get drunk with Koelsch & sing the famous "Viva Colonia..." in front of the Cathedral - otherwise they are not allowed to pass the German border!

eJay 1 Posted August 16, 2012 (edited) Game looks even better than on E3 videos but it runs...worse? At this GC video it looks like 20-25 fps. Edited August 16, 2012 by eJay Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MavericK96 0 Posted August 16, 2012 Game looks even better than on E3 videos but it runs...worse? At this GC video it looks like 20-25 fps. I noticed that too, it looks to be running considerably slower. :confused: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

metalcraze 290 Posted August 16, 2012 (edited) The terrain resolution has indeed been increased considerably. Look at that infantry part. All those bumps. More chances of survival in the open - sweeeet. Also Field Manual idea is a great one. Speaking about in-game manuals - how about including editor manual too? VBS2 had one where you could look up syntax for a chosen command etc. Edited August 16, 2012 by metalcraze Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
liquidpinky 11 Posted August 16, 2012 I've found this on YT - More detailed presentation. Thanks. Some nice little details in that like the rotorwash on the rocket smoke and it was nice to see Ivan switching to show the support actually firing during the disable AA mission.

Pyronick 21 Posted August 16, 2012 Thanks.Some nice little details in that like the rotorwash on the rocket smoke and it was nice to see Ivan switching to show the support actually firing during the disable AA mission. I wonder if the downwash also affects vegetation and other particle effects... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nodunit 397 Posted August 16, 2012 .... Truth be told even though I've already seen some of the things showcased, it's still a thrill to see how things have evolved. I think one of the biggest things people always complained about was polish and more polish. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

metalcraze 290 Posted August 16, 2012 BTW shouldn't a mine finding mechanic be refined? floating red markers feel way too gamey. It will mean that with this device finding a carefully hidden mine will be a piece of cake. There got to be some more realistic way of doing this. Sound maybe? Sorta like that IED detector mod (SR5 or something) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That misrepresentation of rocket artillery made me sad. Why don't they just make a 40 mile map instead? Sorry for derailing this otherwise constructive discussion.
