Heatseeker 0 Posted August 23, 2005 I don´t think ArAs will be a full-price product.It´s not totally new, more like a reworked expansion. Hopefully the price will be reasonable around 30 - 40 Euros. Depends, it will have new content, new island and campaign plus the engine is considerably updated, the old islands and campaigns (1985/res.) could be considered bonuses to the new armed assault game , i wouldnt mind a 65€ or even higher price tag if all vehicals, weapons and units were all new high detailed ones, everything else seems great so far .

Espectro (DayZ) 0 Posted August 23, 2005 im sure it will be a normal priced 349 DKR PC game Ill let it stand there as danish currency so you all can wonder what that is... Weather or not it is in euro, us or yen, it will be different according to your countries economy... So I guess dkr is as good as any cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CanadianTerror 0 Posted August 24, 2005 Quote[/b] ]Now if these vehicles are improved, redesigned, I don´t really see what you are complaining of Ive been playing OFP and VBS and so far, it doesnt look any better to me for a "new" project. What am I complaining of? this is a rehashed money grab pure and simple. The screens shown are very unimpressive for 5 years later. VBS uses XBOX models and old OFP models...this looks to be more of the same with the very sketchy looking troops thrown in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

For $100 Less Personally just looking forward to the whole forest thing, the redone buildings and the new island. Hell pretty much just the whole game.

First of all VBS isn't a game its a training program and not available for everyone. VBS itself also has a few improved things, the only thing I'm impressed with is the DIB movie.

If you're looking for new shiny graphics then "game2" would be more suitable. With ArmA you'll be able the bring a full scale combined arms battle to live but still not enough for some ppl. Lets just say this is VBS for -100 less with new improved things. I don't have VBS for 150 so I don't think this is a money grab at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CanadianTerror 0 Posted August 24, 2005 Quote[/b] ]First of all VBS isn't a game its a training program and not available for everyone Ya thanks for pointing that out...I wasnt aware of that considering i beta test for it. Quote[/b] ]I don't have VBS for 150 so I don't think this is a money grab at all. Well I do. It's funny, You seem to be the expert on "training programs" you dont have. Maybe save the VBS comments and opinions for people who have it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gandalf the white 0 Posted August 24, 2005 I wanna see videoes illustrating the physics engine I am with you... Not a chance, kids . Berghoff, don't forget that VBS1 Core comes with almost no models / sounds/ whatever. what you get (less then half of what you got with OFP 1.00) is of low quality. ever wondered why you only saw the VBS Cobra from the right side? ArmA will have like four campaigns, fifty sp missions, and within a months there will be more mods for it then VBS1 can even dream of . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
berghoff 11 Posted August 24, 2005 and within a months there will be more mods for it then VBS1 can even dream of . Not to mention that it can be easily converted to ArmA Quote[/b] ]Well I do. It's funny, You seem to be the expert on "training programs" you dont have. Maybe save the VBS comments and opinions for people who have it I was talking about the price in comparisation with ArmA. I don't think I need to own VBS1 to do that now do I? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
imported_bör 0 Posted August 24, 2005 Talking about the price of Aras: In the press release they talk about a mid-price release, so I think it'll be around 30€. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Placebo 29 Posted August 24, 2005 CanadianTerror: Unfortunately "CanadianTerror enableFreeWill false" refuses to work in our games, so I think it's quite simple for someone themself to choose to buy or not buy. You've shared your opinion, that's everyone's right on the forum, you're opinion is clear so now I would suggest you move on to somewhere/something else that offends you less. Re: Opflash.org, Edit: beat me to it Edit2: I cleaned up the thread, no need for history to remember a small mistake Any/all sites are welcome to report the news that there are 4 new screenshots, just the fansites should be linked to for now rather than hosting the actual images Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Heatseeker 0 Posted August 24, 2005 Looking at that forest pic left me wondering if a.i. behaviour for forest combat was improved or do they still shoot us like the forest isnt even there, also curious if the a.i. got any small improvements or not, i have become tired of the mighty a.i. machinegunner that kills helicopters easily and snipe me from 500M+ or how the a.i. have great built in nvg in really dark nights .
