Wiki 1558 Posted January 6, 2014 Hi guys. I just noticed this: although Altis is based on Lemnos (IRL), there hasn't been any comparative picture. So, can you (people who live or go to Lemnos) take some pictures from the island IRL and then take an ingame screenshot and post them, so that we can see how good it is in game? Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brisse 78 Posted January 6, 2014 Hi guys.I just noticed this: although Altis is based on Lemnos (IRL), there hasn't been any comparative picture. Oh, really? When Altis was first released, the internet was stormed with exactly what you say does not exist. http://lmgtfy.com/?q=altis+vs+lemnos Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wiki 1558 Posted January 6, 2014 Ok, Thanks. That weird, I googled altis + lemnos but couldn't find pictures like these Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
katipo66 94 Posted January 6, 2014 Those images were great, I hadn't seen those before... Would still be cool to see other images, especially from locals if there are any on the forums. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CaptainAzimuth 714 Posted January 6, 2014 Only some things are kept to proportion, but it's a fact that Altis was rendered half the nearly half the size of actual Lemnos. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brisse 78 Posted January 6, 2014 Only some things are kept to proportion, but it's a fact that Altis was rendered half the nearly half the size of actual Lemnos. It's not 1:1? Where did you get this information? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MissionCreep 12 Posted January 6, 2014 It's not 1:1? Where did you get this information? When life gives you Lemnos ... you make Lemnos-Aid. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
antoineflemming 14 Posted January 6, 2014 It's not 1:1? Where did you get this information? It's old news. VERY old news. It's about 3/4ths the size of Lemnos or something like that. Not half, but 75% - 80%. This was said 1.5 - 2 years ago when ArmA 3 was first announced. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Harzach 2505 Posted January 6, 2014 It's not 1:1? Where did you get this information? 26.6/35.6 = ~0.75, or 75%. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brisse 78 Posted January 6, 2014 Big thanks for the pics Harzach. :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
marcai 1 Posted January 7, 2014 Seeing those pics again, I wish that Altis was a bit more green and lush in certain areas. Whilst I appreciate its an arid climate, the greenery in the farmed fields, the additional plant life and the neatness of the lawns really pop out at you when you're used to Altis as we know it. If only it wouldn't consume 99% of computers if we had a perfect copy :( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
10t 12 Posted January 10, 2014 (edited) From an old Alpha thread, here's a picture I knocked up to compare Altis and Lemnos: Linear dimensions on Altis are 75% of those on Lemnos. Which means that the area is 0.752 = 56% of the real island. Edited January 10, 2014 by 10T Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
