chortles 263 Posted August 23, 2013 Here's the problem with Arma 3 comparisons to DayZ in a nutshell... all this talk about what DayZ does "better" when in reality it's just Rocket's own publicly expressed wishes yet they have nothing publicly available to show for all of it because they still have yet to get the client-server architecture in a workable state to Rocket's satisfaction, and so many slipped deadlines this year alone (he does note that by December they had nothing to show for it development-wise) that they went from release dates to release windows to simply "whenever networking is done".

Brain 12 Posted August 23, 2013 Remember seeing these mystical dromes for the first time? This is what's inside them :) If BI would be DICE/EA, you would enter that/use the ABC-weapons and a then a message pops up saying: "You have used ABC-Weapons, please buy the ABC-DLC or DayZ now. The game gets automatically closed and you will redirected to the Origin Store". :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kylania 567 Posted August 23, 2013 they have nothing publicly available to show for all of it Imagine what ArmA3 would have been with the DayZ team working on it. :) Team might be small, but has some rockstars on it. Also, page 666. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
metalcraze 290 Posted August 23, 2013 Here's the problem with Arma 3 comparisons to DayZ in a nutshell... all this talk about what DayZ does "better" when in reality it's just Rocket's own publicly expressed wishes yet they have nothing publicly available to show for all of it because they still have yet to get the client-server architecture in a workable state to Rocket's satisfaction, and so many slipped deadlines this year alone (he does note that by December they had nothing to show for it development-wise) that they went from release dates to release windows to simply "whenever networking is done". DayZ has a better wounding system as a mod already. ArmA3's primitive 100 hp system with no punishing effects for getting shot is nothing compared. That's a one. DayZ SA was also 2 years less in the works and has like 1/10 of ArmA3 team. And yet the progress Rocket's team show is amazing. Unlike ArmA3 team which has absolutely no passion for what they are doing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brain 12 Posted August 23, 2013 Unlike ArmA3 team which has absolutely no passion for what they are doing. I wouldn't say that, but somehow I keep thinking that the progress and passion in the development of A2 was higher. Did the team change a lot? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GranolaBar 10 Posted August 23, 2013 Hey guys I have a revolutionary idea. It's risky... and highly bold... here it comes... lets stay on topic. Next person who goes offtopic gets a shiny infraction and repeated ofenders will get a temp ban from the thread. New era^^ In the very few news from the gamescom, i listen in the video new sounds for weapons in the infantry showcase . Maybe i'm crazy^^ Not nice news about a content than we have never see ? And in my opinion, very few news about water scenario or how they would using it, only the sabotage for mine and the huge static submarine in a old screenshoot and after ? Disambarking from an boat (and chopper in a cutscene in scenario or campaign) and it's finish for the water... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So what ;) IMO developing underwater stuff is a waste of time, on the gamer side I cannot see any interest in that at all. Waiting eagerly for new Gamescom coverage (seen 2 vids so far) and for Altis on Monday. Why do I have to work, aaargh. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EricM 0 Posted August 23, 2013 I for one loves the new clouds and underwater stuff... I spend half of my time flying and scuba diving. It completes the whole sandbox. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
old_painless 182 Posted August 23, 2013 Very nice video the one from Gamestar. At the end it is stated that BI plan to support and extend the game for several years. Not really unexpected info, but nevertheless nice to hear the support timespan is measured in years :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

antoineflemming 14 Posted August 23, 2013 At this point the underwater stuff is more immersive and actually exciting than Altis. Well, gamescom and release in general would be more exciting if they'd show off new content, and not just what we've already seen (like UAVs/UGVs and tanks, where there isn't really much to show).

Hard to show more when there is nothing more. Community will take the part of delivering the content. Like the game before. And the game before that. And the game before that.
