ArmA reviews

Recommended Posts

Before you slag off the reviewers for not rating ArmA 10/10 ,

maybe it could be true that BIS majorly failed to fix and update stuff in the gameplay department?

It would be funny if reviewers care more about gameplay than the alleged "We don't care about graphics" community and the "Our main focus is to produce a gameplay-orientated ultimate realistic MilSim Hoaah" developers icon_rolleyes.gif

I can't wait to review this myself in 20 days

how can they say that an updated flashpoint is a minus

thats all i want.. not that i really need it but thats a big plus

It sure is if it's priced like a new game. wink_o.gif

As far as I see it.

OFP always had a good deals of quirks.

There have always been weird issues with many things in the game.

I think many reviewers are sooo used to all the games these days that are all about looks and just getting "oohhh, ahhhs" and cheap gameplay mechanics and ragdoll physics. OFP wasn't that pretty, and there were/still are weird issues and things that subtract from gameplay, and feel. (the aa videos with the AI saying "3 ENGAGE SOLIDER" over and over always annoyed me) but I will still choose OFP over the newest released game, no-matter how many poly's per model or what kind of crazy player bump-mapped-shadow-thingeys it has.

I don't know about you guys the reason I still play OFP all the time is what the community has done. As long as AA is wide open for community projects, the same way OFP was.. even if the game deserves a 70% now or less, I will still be playing it for 5 NEXT years.

And hey... if AA does turn out to be crap.... We still have OFP!

Let's hope some bugs will be fixed and maybe some addon tools will be released when the game hit the stores in my area (505).

there is still no idea about what would run the game smooth loz, but be perpare for a atless a core 2 CPU, some 4GB rams, a cock a$$ expensive SLI/CF display setup, and a nuclear plant to run is both good looking and smooth

That gets a big W T F from me, nice to see the Marines showing up after all though. Thought they would have bothered putting MARPAT in though, all it would have required is a colour change, and using the Coyote Interceptors the DRS army is wearing. Hmm.

I wonder if there's a protect-the-reporter mission. Hopefully it involves a helicopter, so we can see if she parachutes as well as she handles that mike. tounge2.gif

I was starting to live with the Army/USMC vehicle mix but that guy looks so wrong... instead of the small release they could have gotten these inacuracies sorted for a even better Q1 general release...

Any existing small bugs dont bother me since i trust they will be fixed/patched but the performance/requirements are scaring me since im about to build a new comp.

I like what they did to the old, nice church we can see in this picture

but the weapon holding animation doesnt hold the AKS74U correctly and looks quite bad sad_o.gif .

505 better not include SF in their release mad_o.gif .

Couldnt agree more. What annoyed me was the fact that BIS got all the intel they needed concerning The Marines Corp, texturing MARPAT wasnt that hard im sure.

One negative point for Immersion, no doubt.

Lets hope they change it to 505 ver.

Sometimes details make the difference between Good Games and Great Games.
