ArmA Progress Updates

[Guest]

Brilliant!!!! What a trailer!

I love the harrier and the sound of it, the weapons sound very good, explosions look fantastic and nice animations!

I can't wait.

Nice one D034rk, now I was finally able to watch that trailer.  Man, it looks awesome!!!

One thing that still bugs me in Arma is the USMC harrier and cobra, the usmc/usarmy mix cuts down the authenticity of the game imo.

You don't ever get the US Marines called into assist the US Army because they have a faster response/deployment? I thought that's why the US Marines existed?

We know that not all character/player models have been finished/revealed yet, so I think it's entirely possible that in the final game the storyline will be that the US troops on the island are re-enforced by Marines.

Nice video and music.

The environment is really coming along. Some of the close tank moves were very realistic looking. The sounds were much better (accept some later tank engine sounds). Of course the smoke is going to add a new feature to the game.

This is THE game that sets the bar for ANY first person shooter that thinks it's trying to be realistic. (from what we've seen)

Sounds good to me.  As I pointed out there do apear to be two different models for US guys,  One with his sleves rolled up the other has his sleves down.  Also I've only seen the Bull insignie on the long sleve guys..  prehaps they are army??

Love the trailer although the whole matrix effect is a bit annoying

New interview guys from Gaming Area. We asked what others wouldn't!

Also I would like to ask that webmasters not to host the screenshots on their site until 26th, but instead, link to them. Thanks.

Probably no "real" rivers, but who knows... Take a look at the south coast in the Google Earth image:

Indeed. The river apparently shows a current, or are these just the wave effects of the sea?

Very nice! But FYI: The second thumb in your interview is misleading.

Great interview!

There needs to be an interview asking where that google earth picture of saharini came from! It's still a mystery.

Also asking about the grass and if it will conceal you from other people far away.

Autumn 2006 is good sign

I really believe in Q4 2006

Winter 2006 starting toward the end of November

Didn't see anything I would describe as a river, i.e. above sea level?

Very nice trailer but anyone else feel that it played in fast motion?

Yeah playback is insainly fast.  

[jakerod 254]

Anyone else notice what I think is a Javelin on the guys back at the 1:00 minute mark?

Two things I loved: The littlebird flying into the explosion looked really cool for some reason.

[Sniperwolf572 758]

Yeah, I noticed it, altough I think that is SRAW, I also spotted an flashlight attachment.

[d034rk 0]

It actually looks more like a Javelin.

That is possibly the best interview to date. It addressed most of the remaining questions and has certainly put a few endless threads to rest.

I also only noticed one dodge from Placebo - on the question of enterable buildings.
