There is nothing new in it, exactly the same as the old 505 trailer.

Okay damn it... i overread törnis comment. And forgive me for calling this scenes as new ones. I was referring to the latest arma II HD ingame trailer and there they are not a component of the trailer

Just about 2 hours

I was wondering how long it'd take

[Colossus 2]

Sweet

EDIT: Having sort of a problem with downloading this new trailer.

Mr.G-Cs Feedback:

+ Information Policy and how its made up to bring atmosphere!

+ Atmosphere Excellent (even better than OFP1?)

+ Graphics+Shaders Excellent

+ Tanks have weight?! OMG, i couldn't believe it....

+ Go-Animations are more fluid looking than Arma1

+ Distant Chopper Sound (bop-bop-bop-bop-bop)

0 MH60 Sound could need tweak, sounds like he is still spinning-up even though already flying - maybe that how the video is cut though...

0 A10 Sound is way to overpowered, it has in Real-Life a very distinctive "whizzz" when passing-by. It could need a tweak. Please dear responsible BIS Sound-Dev have a look at these Videos :

and here at 02:10 :

- "Running-Animation" looks "weight-less", means it looks like at old UnrealTurnament , just a animation but it looks like the people are "floating/Gliding" over the ground.

Just let someone in RL run around and you will see that whenever one feet touches the ground and all the body weight is transfered to one leg/feet that he is moving a bit down then... hard to explain, watch this and imagine 30kg more weight: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5x6V48IIQRQ

So far, very cool! Looking forward for next week.

Does it mean release in 6 Weeks ?

That's true. I can hear them allmost daily flying over my head and that was not the sound that I had expected

So far, very cool! Looking forward for next week.

Does it mean release in 6 Weeks ?

Haha, that was my first thought too.

Impatiently waiting for the release.

great stuff.

now theres' something i am wondering how long it will take - if the official secrets act is revoked then can we be given more details on release date?

is it 5 weeks from now as USMC = week 1?

my money is ready to be spent on arma2. eagerly looking forward to it.

Awesome! Keep up the good work BIS!

[Deadeye 1]

Great job BIS ! Thanks for everything. I'm loving it !

Awesome indeed ! The most realistic graphics seen in a game. Other games with great graphics usually end up looking like a cartoon, that's not the case here.

Really, I can't wait !

What caught my eye:

Quote[/b] ]"Marines in field rely on many advanced weapon platforms: Predator unmanned aerial vehicles, <span style='font-size:17pt;line-height:100%'>MLRS rocket artillery</span> and many more."

Would be awesome to get realistic working MLRS.

Hi, didn't anyone noticed that the hmmwv exhaust it's in the wrong

side? or that the hmmwv don't have the snorkel on the hood?, also

seems that rightnow the M249 that everyone is equiped with, it's

the short barreled one, not the one with the Minimi barrel's lenght;

i've seen the A-10 there, i don't know how the real ones sound but

i like how this ones sound in comparison with the ones in ArmA, they'll

scare me if im on the ground in case that they're able of engage on

foot OPFOR, but i hope to see the AV-8BII++ wich have their own FLIR

and use to carry mavericks.

I've also seen that the weed under the UH-1Y isn't affected by the

rotor movement; and that unarmed observer in the airport's tower

makes me await for the worst... that silly looking standing animation

have less life than tut-ank-amon.

But i like much more the sprinting animations, they're much better

than the ArmA ones, and judging by the previous videos... i think

that we may see many improvements in the anims field. I'll drink

a bit less to await for the ArmA2. Let's C ya

*Edit: I also have forget to complain about the absence of the

green upper glasses in the UH-1Y, the UH-60S and the KC-130.

Also, shouldn't the F-35B have a slight golden tone in the damn

cockpit glass...?.

[funnyguy1 0]

Wow! I'm impressed. Watched it 10x, and the only thing that looks silly imho is the helo takeoff. And jeez, leave the a10's sound! It finally sounds like a plane. jk

[berghoff 11]

Damn nice shaders indeed. I will definitely buy arma2 it already looks wayyyy beter than arma. Foliage and environment looks superb also.

[lennard 447]

I'm liking what I see so far, though I agree with wipman that the absence of the green upper glasses in the UH-1Y, the UH-60S and the KC-130 is quite a miss.

Looks great and looking forward to it.

Keep it up BIS

nice graphics of course but finally a good sound engine

[lwlooz 0]

Hello,

if Arma2 was just a 3D rendering,virtual world representation engine, I would say that this is already pretty good.

(Of course it remains to be seen how the lighting and any overdone graphical effects will annoy me ingame)

Nicely done camera sequences as well. And the amount of factions there are too. Could actually be a campaign I will play.

(Despite the fact its all l33tzor super-revivers SF stuff)

I hope for all of us tho that within that nice engine that portrays military equipments to an quite amazing detail is a good and fun game thats improved from OFP.

But I guess we are only going to find that out after we paid the money already.

But I am actually posting because of a rather lowly reason.

Could we like get an CH-46 or CH-53 as well? Excuse my lack of faith in your Osprey simulation , but I would like to have large fall back options for transportation in mission making if the AI can't quite handle the V-22.

[fullmetal69 0]

I see the video is huge !!!!

I can't wait more !

The released date is know or the game is not gold?
