Flash Thunder 10 Posted January 10, 2012 Why does this deserve a thread? Its a person saying that he saw beta footage of Arma 3 but has no video proof or interview or anything. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
msy 22 Posted January 10, 2012 (edited) Maybe with the new sandbox design, new animation and ragdall etc. ARMA3 can be partially arcade FPS mode in some situation and can cater for thouse traditional common FPS player first, then introduce them to real ARMA world. Thanks to BF3, system requirement for ARMA3 should not be a big problem unless they really want to set the longest view distance. ---------- Post added at 03:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:21 PM ---------- Why does this deserve a thread?Its a person saying that he saw beta footage of Arma 3 but has no video proof or interview or anything. Because many of us haven't seen a working beta ARMA3 since GC11. Edited January 10, 2012 by msy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Flash Thunder 10 Posted January 10, 2012 Because many of us haven't seen a working beta ARMA3 since GC11. Am I missing something is there new footage? He linked old videos. There will be a demo on Thursday supposedly dunno if its Beta or not and how this guy would be able to see it earlier. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steakslim 1 Posted January 10, 2012 I think it's more of he saw something that the rest of use haven't seen yet possibly. Hopefully that'll be rectified soon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He linked old videos.There will be a demo on Thursday supposedly dunno if its Beta or not and how this guy would be able to see it earlier. My understanding is that he had a chance to see the recent working beta but for some reason he didn't have any pictures or videos back home. To help thouse who don't learn about ARMA3, he linked the old viedeos in the forum. Am I right? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maddogx 13 Posted January 10, 2012 I can't access the article until I get home, so I have to ask: does it contain any new information at all? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PuFu 4600 Posted January 10, 2012 no, there is't any...i also wonder why some beta of A3 would be available somewhere in UK, at some programming institute (no name given...) Well I went to a crazy programming institute up here in the midlands near brum, and was better than expected as I got to see a working beta of ARMA3.BF3 is still great in my opinion but now im reaching lvl 45 and all unlocks, im out of game time and anticipate something now. Im totally speechless. I gotta say it has everything we ever wanted out of battlefield 3 of which bf3 failed at.... VOIP squads (not groups, groups are now groups of squads) kinda looks like arma2 but a million times better looking and more arcade in the animations. it was on a nice big HD screen also and really looked f'kin incredible! they also made it much more "fluent" compared to arma2. It just looks smooth, no old arma2 jolt walking feeling. because it still a war simulator, some of our players whom like the COD / BF3 arcade FPS feel might not like but i gotta say its still worth taking a look when its released. Im really anticipating this release now, it would be nice to see other peoples show interest in arma3 and we should be playing it! Now i seen this.... im more excited about arma3 than i was with bf3. and so is loafhimself.... loaf is so convinced hes already gone out and bought a new cpu and mb for bf3 and arma 3. Sorry dice, i know this game is out of your league, but it shows.... your not the best afterall. im gutted to say i didnt have me GE cam with me to take some footage so im leaving you with these public vids instead.... enjoy!

Tonci87 163 Posted January 10, 2012 I think this is fake. How could a copy of Arma 3 leave the BIS high security bunker? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maddogx 13 Posted January 10, 2012 I think this is fake. How could a copy of Arma 3 leave the BIS high security bunker? We know that they're showing some kind of Arma3 presentation the day after tomorrow (in CZ I believe), so it's not entirely impossible that they've recently done the same in other places aswell. The story still seems a little far fetched though. EDIT: Come to think of it, I remember either RiE or Gaia (or both) tweeting about being in the UK a while back (before christmas), so perhaps they were there for business. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If its BS, then its pretty creative sounding BS So FTL's would be able to comunicate with their SL separately via a dedicated "squad" channel avoiding the command channel? If it turns out to be true, this would be great. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dunedain 48 Posted January 10, 2012 Why would he be lying, I mean dude's just telling what he saw to his "friends" in his clan... Anyway, can't wait for sauce, it's been some time without real news. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Maddmatt 1 Posted January 11, 2012 Why would he be lying, I mean dude's just telling what he saw to his "friends" in his clan... Because there are people that make up stories to their friends to make themselves sound cool. I've met some losers like that. Not making accusations, just saying it happens. more arcade in the animations WTF is this supposed to mean? Hate it when people think "arcade" is an acceptable way to describe things like this. Makes no damn sense. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
james2464 176 Posted January 11, 2012 WTF is this supposed to mean? Hate it when people think "arcade" is an acceptable way to describe things like this. Makes no damn sense. It makes perfect sense, he means the animations are like BF3. DUH Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
froggyluv 2135 Posted January 11, 2012 So it wasn't eloquent Queens english -at this point I'm so starved for feedback/info, a 13yo Pitbull styled gangbanger saying "Looked smooth yo", would make me estatic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Big Dawg KS 6 Posted January 11, 2012 WTF is this supposed to mean? Hate it when people think "arcade" is an acceptable way to describe things like this. Makes no damn sense. I assume he is talking about how much more fluid they are, but I still wouldn't call them "arcady". Just more fluid. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NeMeSiS 11 Posted January 11, 2012 I assume he is talking about how much more fluid they are, but I still wouldn't call them "arcady". Just more fluid. Well you dont know that. ;) But yeah, you are probably right, and since BI already told us they would change the animation system this isnt really news unless we actually get to see it, since 'less clunky' was obviously the direction they were going for.

Smurf 12 Posted January 11, 2012 A BF3 fan saying that A3 looks and feels good? Is that bad or good? :P I actually would like if A3 attracts more people from those arcade shooters; Number of online players grow, BIS gets more money (even better post-release support?) and the hardcore sim fans still get the hardcore mods. Great. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
