are two very different statements. Just because they aren't seen doesn't necessarily mean they aren't being worked on.

I not necessarely meen that, I know what Placebo wrote.

Yes, They may be already made, they maybe working on them now, maybe they still have to work on them, that wasn't the main reason of my post anyway   Maybe there is a full finished version of AA in Mars and you'll only get it here when Marcians beta test it...    I know, I need more sleep.

What I was trying to say is that they only have half a year left if the release that in mid 2006, just to beta test it, to be able to release a neet product, they'll need time.

Regards.

@CERO... I'm not really a Marcian, I was born in Jupiter...

I wouldn't worry! Expected release dates always get pushed back!

So does that mean that IDEA will be publishing ArmA?

[Daniel 0]

Does that mean they'll (BIS) be promoting it and releasing it themselves?

its a bad idea i think im probably wrong but if people see a game with an unknown publisher then it will look like a budget game so ppl wont buy

Well at least they won't get ripped off by any dodgy b******s, like EA...

Now they really are their own bosses

Thats really not true... most gamers don't look at whos publishing the game. Hell I have never heard of most of the publishers on games I buy... but I buy them becuase they game looked good. I worked in a game store for a time, and I never saw anyone pick up a game they thought looked cool, say "Hey this looks cool, but I never heard of this publisher... bet it sucks" and put it down.

If the game looks good (as ArmA does) people will buy... trust me

Agree..... but not fully

Since when do ppl look at publishers these days......well depending on the game....

Look at EA or Valve,Blizzard and Activision all well known names... and Why is that??? The Games that hit the target in the Markets...

there are very few advertise on TV or papers about a new released game... why?? ... mostly due to $$$ sign flashing in front of the publishers eyes.... Best place to spend it would be where the ppl look... magazines and Internet...keep you right next to the source The PC

Quote from Placebo BIS PR Officer

"It means it's a collaboration between three developers to aid the developing of games, marketing, pr, legal issues etc. It's not about publishing, seems most people have missed that point"

[Placebo 29]

"It's not about publishing per se"

We need more informations regarding release

[VDV 0]

Yes, you are right we should to know an exact date of issue

PS: Somebody knows Russian though a little? I badly know English and consequently I shall translate not absolutely clearly

PSS: Still I wished to ask a question, in Armed Assault - it will be possible to play for RUSSIAN?

Yes, that's what I want to know, if we will be able to play for the North 'enemy' side, like the Russians in OFP...

Clearly.... I so have understood, that Russian will be in AA....... I as the patriot of the native land of the Russian Federation (Russian Federation) with pleasure shall play Armed Assault for (Russian) and I shall destroy all terrorists of the world

PS: Still a question - if Russian will be in AA, whether that game will use the military conflict in the Chechen Republic - the Chechen war?

[Heatseeker 0]

I would prefer a Russian campaign too has i have grown quite bored of blackhawks and M4's but it seems we will once again represent a peace keeping NATO (US) soldier wich seems ironic to me...

Probably unrealistic to expect, but wouldn't it be nice to pick the player's nationality? Probably better to expect it in a mod.
