Ukraineboy 0 Posted May 29, 2006 But how many of you are so lucky? Question is, who cares? Im a consumer in a capitalist consumer country, and I don't give a crap about anyone else. If they can't find a publisher, Steam is a great interim solution to bring up more attention to Armed Assault. First they release it through Steam, then when enough attention comes they'll release a box version. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lecholas 2 Posted May 29, 2006 But how many of you are so lucky? Question is, who cares? Im a consumer in a capitalist consumer country, and I don't give a crap about anyone else. The answer is, developer cares. If there insn't enough customers that will buy the game that is distributed by steam or similar way they won't bother to release it this way.

You really need to rethink your posts before replying and be more constructive towards others instead of negative all the time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If they can't find a publisher, Steam is a great interim solution to bring up more attention to Armed Assault. First they release it through Steam, then when enough attention comes they'll release a box version. And hence devalue the hardcopy version? The amount of real world contractural Nightmares that would pop up for any prospective publisher and developer would be endless. Contracts are as thin as the paper they are written on and are the source of long and bitter company-killing disputes despite any amount of goodwill that exists when it comes to 'co-distribution'. The Bottom of the line is that before even starting up business, any company with any sort of business know-how, have already spent many hours agonising over product launch and the feasability of each. With each option potentially having various consequences. I'd take the safe option! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CameronMcDonald 146 Posted May 30, 2006 If it were released digitally, I'd be scared of accidentally deleting it. I'd copy the files around 20 times just to be sure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CameronMcDonald 146 Posted May 30, 2006 Calm before the storm, you reckon? I reckon the next big thing to happen will be an update on William Porter's blog... though maybe Placebo has an ulterior motive for his little "holiday..."

Dangerous Waters was sold via online store of the publisher only and now ended up at steam... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
aus_twisted 0 Posted May 30, 2006 I'm guessing there will soon possibly be a Multiplayer demo to test out and have the community report any bugs which is the best way to do it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

de la rocka 0 Posted May 30, 2006 is think this Thread is more compatible Quote[/b] ]Hi there! didn't found the topic what's related. I have my problems with "Running" and "Weapon-view" Fortunatly it's still in progress. So i hope they fix it in any better way. One of the many good things i loved in OFP was the completely different weapon-view. It was just more realistic. And now it seems BIS try to make an average FPS-view (even in a more worse way) out of it. (i made some quick exsamples of what i mean... Yes, they could be better, but i'm lazy ) Running first: The "running" must be a joke. looks like a cartoon. i wish some original motion-captured moves. in VBS i think the moves are more authentic as well <OBJECT CLASSID="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" WIDTH=350 HEIGHT=120><PARAM NAME=MOVIE VALUE=http://home.arcor.de/de-la-rosa/my_shit/arma/run.swf><PARAM NAME=PLAY VALUE=TRUE><PARAM NAME=LOOP VALUE=TRUE><PARAM NAME=QUALITY VALUE=HIGH><EMBED SRC=http://home.arcor.de/de-la-rosa/my_shit/arma/run.swf WIDTH=350 HEIGHT=120 PLAY=TRUE LOOP=TRUE QUALITY=HIGH></EMBED></OBJECT> the view Original: The arm looks more than unnatural in position and holding These are some tests and of cousre they are just coarse examples of what i mean. Just to imagine that even my "shitty" examples looks more improved. Even the old view looks better real gun *Sorry for my english. I have better formulated arguments in german. So hope you ppl know what i mean Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

telejunky 0 Posted May 30, 2006 But i think that afaik BIS said that they will release a MP-Demo a few months before and the single player quite near the release of ArmA, or? And Q3 ends on september so the mp demo would be released only one month before the great game is released... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
