TriPro 10 Posted August 17, 2011 Hi everyone, as an avid fan of the series, I had to head to the Bohemia Interactive booth at the GamesCon in Cologne. Being a games developer, I had access on the business day and to the business area and after looking at other games, I had to go to the ArmA 3 developers. It was a small both with 3 PCs, including Take On: Helicopters, Carrier Command and last but not least, ArmA 3. One of the devs gave me a brief walkthrough and played the game and answered very honest to all my questions. I even received a note book and a sticker for my car. It was a very interesting and nice experience and have to say that they are not only making good games, but are nice people as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TriPro 10 Posted August 17, 2011 I'll post a picture as soon as I got it on my car. ArmA 3 looks nice, the physix does really a good job (it looks nearly like the Grand Theft Auto series when you hit a body with a vehicle), civilians had no great interaction yet but where there, civilians had futuristic vehicles which could well fit into todays environment, clouds look great, the biggest town seems to be bigger than Chernogorsk and smaller than Zargabad. It was lagging a little and the AI is far from being finished but I am sure that these issues and a few others will be sorted out. I asked if there will be a console version, entry animations for vehicles and working rear-view mirrors for vehicles which were not present and they are definitely looking into it but both depends on performance, which liked in most game projects, has among the highest priority. Thats it for now, hope you enjoyed my read. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

4 IN 1 0 Posted August 17, 2011 Console version is almost not likely to happen, just by looking at the min. system spec. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NielsS 10 Posted August 18, 2011 I'll post a picture as soon as I got it on my car. I asked if there will be a console version, entry animations for vehicles and working rear-view mirrors for vehicles which were not present and they are definitely looking into it but both depends on performance, which liked in most game projects, has among the highest priority. Strange. The Arma 3 site clearly states that Arma 3 is a PC exclusive. Thanx for the info. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
