mr reality 0 Posted September 26, 2005 I'm getting the feeling that there either holding back on the good stuff or they hav'nt updated ALL the vehicle models as the only vehicles we get to see are the M1, Hummer and truck. I'm not being negative but i don't want a repeat of VBS1, when the OPFOR units and the majority of West vehicles included in the core where the exact same units in OFP. By that i mean texture and model wise. My point being, i don't want to pay for the same models THREE times  Because if that is the case then wouldn't it be a good idea for owners of OFP to be able to pay for a download link for the part of Armed Assault that they require. Don't jump on my head guys as it's on a thought... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pardon me but BF2 graphics were very FUBAR'd up atleast on my gfx card they appeared messy and lagged like hell for no reason. That game failed on nearly ALL fronts graphics , gameplay everything. ArmA's graphics look fine and good enough and the if they hold back a bit of that eye candy for gameplay reasons i dont mind a bit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Even if there will be 3 vehicles with the same model, you can download tons of addons from the internet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Â Only problem with that is they wont be playable in the armed assault campaign...and i've already got tons of addons...I'd much prefer a highly polished game than having to download addons of the same vehicles made by the community. Also why do you think there are tons of addons. Becasue the game is over 3 years old and by todays standards the included vehicles are relativley poor quality. So thats why i would like better quality vehicles. Then the community wouldn't have to make the same model 3 or 4 times...... because the original would be very acceptable.

jakerod 254 Posted September 26, 2005 I like the building too. Also I like the sidewalks, the large town in the background and the new Blackhawk. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CherokeeJack 0 Posted September 26, 2005 Lovin' these new screenshots! Sarah looks great, but I wonder what it's supposed to be based on, geographically? To me, it kind of reminds me of Israel, especially with that farmland in the background of the third shot. BIS makes me drool... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stgn 39 Posted September 26, 2005 Thats the VBS M16A2, a thing thats kinda funny is that the VBS manual comes with a picture of the M16 used in older screenshots of armed assult. STGN Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Uziyahu--IDF 0 Posted September 26, 2005 Hmm, that might explain why it is called "Sarah", the name of Abraham's wife. Â It would need more light-colored rocks in the ground in the greener areas, kinda like Greece or Italy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
privatenoob 0 Posted September 26, 2005 There IS actually venetian blinds on the windows of the house! Im longing too see the game in action and not just on screen, a picture doesnt speak a thousand words you know but this feels awesome. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think you could be right with that So perhaps ArmA is about a Middle-east conflict Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sniperwolf572 758 Posted September 26, 2005 On most of the screenshots I've seen of ArmA, there were enterable buildings. I wonder.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you're getting at all buildings being enterable that isn't right because you can clearly see in a few of them that they aren't open. As of right now anyway but maybe they are upgrading that.

ExtracTioN 0 Posted September 26, 2005 AFAIK BIS said ArAs will have a new island and campaign ArAs will AFAIK old Cold War Campaign, Resistance Campaign and a new Campaign So I ques the new campaign will be set in a tropical african island or a desert maybe afghanistan or Iraq Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Murmur2k 0 Posted September 26, 2005 A few palm trees doesn't really constitute a tropical region in my eyes. I mean you can plant a few palm trees anywhere. I think they are just around that building complex - look in the background, no other palm trees anywhere. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hauk 0 Posted September 26, 2005 yay! The glass in the black hawk in the 4th picture is reflecting ligth!!!!! That will make our scripted cutscenes look (read: killer) on screen! BIS, once again, i bow down! Yay!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
marcusjm 0 Posted September 26, 2005 It's great that they use the old islands as well for screens. I've allways wanted to see how the Malden/Everon will look with this addon. They are still my favourite islands . marcus Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
twisted 128 Posted September 26, 2005 well done BIS! these screens look great. the flat look of the ground has been replaced by something better. a very smart choice in my opinion. as the 'flat light' look was OFP's biggest graphical problem imo. its much darker and more interesting to look at. lots more vegetation and a richer environment. great. the ideal is having ground and landscape and environemnt that look natural and offer convincing light and dark areas and textures where all is illumated naturally and consitently by light. really looking forward to the release. brilliant! PS - just hope AI cant see through vegetation. lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
