Hey all! This thread is for people who falsely claim Arma being the "Military Simulator" genre. I find an increasing number of people using the term "simulator" to describe the Arma 3 in forums, video comments and even in the feedback tracker. I want to make it clear, BIS has never classified Arma 3 as "Military Simulator" genre. If you check out any of the official BI websites and game description, they do not mention Arma 3 being a "simulator". Instead they mention it being "authentic". Virtual Battlespace genre is "Military Simulator", which is a true simulator made by BI specifically for military simulation. Arma 3 genre is "tactical shooter". Not "simulator". However, BI describes Arma 3 as "authentic" and a "massive military sandbox" which fits it perfectly. BIS says its "authentic". IT IS. The MEDIA says its "Simulator". It's not. The media can be misleading. Arma 3 wiki- says genre is "tactical shooter". Does not say its "Simulator" genre. http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/ARMA_3 Arma 3 description- does not say Arma 3 is "simulator". Its "authentic". http://www.bistudio.com/english/games/arma3 Virtual Battlespace wiki- says genre is "Military Simulater". This is a real simulater by BI, not Arma http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/VBS1 Correct me if I'm wrong ^^ - Renz I hope this clears things up.
