How is this considered ARMA 2?

The questions is asked after watching a few videos.

The game looks no different than, "ARMA 1."

I do notice trees are colored but who cares?

BIS is using the same engine and the same animations they previously had.

Telling me on paper that there are a numerous amount of changes. Yet the videos show nothing that merits anything less than an, "addon fee."

If I compare this to OPF2 if you will, the game isnt even in the same arena and I would just like to know what they are trying to pull on us, were not blind.

How is ArmA not OFP? =P

Similer engine, just updated, as ArmA 2's is from ArmA's...

Looked exactly the same in earlier screenshots...

ArmA2 looks good, dont complain untill we know whats its release state is.

it is ArmA 2 because it's the Successor to Armed Assault, Thats why it's considered ArmA2 PERIOD

Makes me wonder if you know what an engine is.

Based on the ArmA engine yes, but not the same. No point in a total rewrite.

Can you explain what puts OFP2 in a better 'arena'?

And I believe it is considered "ArmA 2" because that is the name that was given to it

Then why not reply in the thread about the videos? A separate thread isn't required.
