Marshal 0 Posted November 15, 2005 Marshal ... you quite full of BS ... 4 years waited for update ... funny that last OFPR update was released early this year ... right? ...and You sure wait for 2nd game from first minute first one was released ... you made yourself looking like "edited" .... noone said 4 years ago there will be ANY sequel .... You must be the only person who got a OFPR update then mate unless you mean a patch? A patch isnt a new game is it? Just tidying up on bugs in the original game. Isnt it obvious that a successful game gets an sequel? Am I wrong to expect an announcement regarding this game because it doesnt seem to be any where near complete and Im curious that no announcement has been made even though the site says 'release Q4 2005' ? Moderators, we are all grown up enough to realise that game makers sometimes cannot make a release date that they were working towards, but we do expect for the company behind the game to make an announcement if they cannot deliver on their specified date. Keeping quiet only gets people mad (as you can see here). Please dont blame or ban us for holding an interest in your product or for asking a simple question which should have been answered long ago. Were not trolling at all - we just want an official announcement that the game wont appear in Q4 2005 because of a lack of publisher or because the game needs more work. Why is that such a hard thing to announce? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[ukf] john r. 0 Posted November 15, 2005 Let's give ArmA a new name... My idea: Phantom-Game -> Everyone heard something about it, but anyone knows if its exist... p.s.: Sorry for my bad english but i think you know what i mean Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
notan00b 0 Posted November 15, 2005 John R. @ Nov. 15 2005,16:39)]Let's give ArmA a new name...My idea: Phantom-Game -> Everyone heard something about it, but anyone knows if its exist... p.s.: Sorry for my bad english but i think you know what i mean  yeah, i for one totally understood what you meant... i'm so sick and tired of this bullshit.... now i'm going insane, for the past two months i've been searching for some new info on this forum... so little info on this game, i mean, look at s.t.a.l.k.e.r, they have a shitload of screenies vids and info, and the game should be released next year! and armed assault, who's gonna be released in 2005 (hopefully) has just a bunch of screens , a very poor website (in content) and half a page of info :| i am so unsure about the release date... It would have been much better if they would have said that the game would be released next year in the beggining, and then make us a surprize and release it this year, not vice-versa! well, it's not in our hands, heck knows what's gonna happen....  Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Marshal 0 Posted November 15, 2005 Yeah but at least the companies making those games keep their fans clued up to why its been delayed and when it will probably surface. No news = Bad news and companies who decide to ignore their fan base will only start creating problems for themselves. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WeilichderRöhrichbin 0 Posted November 15, 2005 Yeah, some info would be appreciateted indeed. No news is indeed bad news when considering that the release of ArmA was scheduled for Q4/ 2004. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
notan00b 0 Posted November 15, 2005 i have a Amd Athlon 64 2800+, with 512MB DDRam (2x256), nVidia GeForce FX 5500 etc etc 19* LCD screen....do you think i can play it with high resolution and effects? i am playing OFP with 1280*1024, viewdistance 1500 + or - (depending on the island, if im playing on desert island viewD is set to 5000 Â ) terrain detail medium....:) what do you think? they say that the engine is much better than the previous one, more efficient.... so i guess it wont use much resources, no?

Metal Heart 0 Posted November 15, 2005 1. They have given an estimated release date. 2. They will confirm the release date when the time is right. 3. They owe you nothing. Try to live with that. What's the worst case scenario: ArmA is delayed from the estimated release. Guess what? It wouldn't be the first time in the history of gaming industry, Holmes.

Espectro (DayZ) 0 Posted November 15, 2005 No, they don't owe us... they owe it to themself... Ignoring the fans will just reduce sales. PR is very important.. you would allmost think they ´learned it after the codemasters scandale Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
notan00b 0 Posted November 15, 2005 you're absolutely right, they dont owe us s**t.... but that doesn't mean that they should ignore us   we're not asking that they release the game tomorrow, we're asking for some info, some freakn info, i would even settle with a "hey stupid morrons that like OFP, i wanna say sorry for keeping you here everyday checking for info when there is none and  i wanna say that the game has been postponned, so here's a screenshot to last you this week, next week we'll throw you another so that you don't "starve" to death" i mean, wtf? and i hate you guys who keep saying " bis will release some new info when they're ready, just hang on!" when are they gonna be ready? dont tell me that youre happy with the current situation because im gonna tell you u're nuts.....

Hauk 0 Posted November 15, 2005 Ok, lets cut a deal. We don`t need an acctuall update as of jet. We`ll settle for 4 more screenshots. I agree. Four more screenshots and a two second vid and we'll call it quits until release. I don't post here often, but have been lurking for a year, and am a hardcore Flashpoint fan for three years now. I'm dying out for some info, just update the site like you said you would even!!! Hauk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Colossus 2 Posted November 15, 2005 If no info about ArmA is released soon at least explane to me what you mean with "when we feel we are ready". Is it the contract with CM that prevents you from saying anything or is it because you don't have an agreement with the publisher for ArmA? Or is it the fact that a publisher for ArmA won't allow BIS to release anything? I'm just saying that the morale is low Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

"We'll be updating the Armed Assault website soon"(not a direct quote, but said before). Is soon in Czech Republic differant to soon here in Ireland??

jotte 0 Posted November 15, 2005 Marshal (and several others), *You seem to have no or very little knowledge of the realitys of life or business. *You seem to have this totally prepostreous idea that BIS is holding in the info for no good reason at all. They most certainly have a good reason, and that reason is also very likley to be stopping them from saying anything. Its getting really annoying to see this repeated pissing an mouning for more information and calling annyone with a "voice of reason" for a fanboy. Says quite a bit about the posters mental or factual age... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scrub 0 Posted November 15, 2005 It's doubtful BIS are just sitting on their collective thumbs. Â Everything they have said has been positive - "ArmA is getting more like Game 2", "Will have benefits from 'Elite' and 'VBS' " , Etc. Â You know BIS doesn't think small, and large projects, especially done well, take time. Â Everything is pointing, IMHO, to more being added to ArmA. Â I am wholeheartedly trusting that it will be worth it, like the initial release after the demo (remember *that* wait time??) like resistance, ya know: Rev. 1.46 - 1.96?? I have not been dissapointed yet, and not looking to be in the "near" future... Though I am beginning to think of that Ireland comment on the meaning of 'soon' Â Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
