Quote[/b] ]People and hardcore fans are already sceptical, very sceptical.

With due respect, "People" and "hardcore fans" are very different things.

And even among fans, there's a big difference between fans of the GAMEPLAY (an awsome sandbox with loads of stuff and terrain to play with) and fans of MILITARY UBERREALISM (Gunporn?).

Only the "hardcore fans" of the later branch seem to be worried that "faction X is using item Y which isn't in service or won't be in service in 2009 according to Jane's"

I'd rather think that most people are reasonably impressed by the list of features included already and the quality of previews.

Not to say it can't be better or improved, but you have to salute the obvious effort and commitment put by BIS into this title. If a "requested" feature isn't included it's most probably because it can't be at this moment for time/budgetary reasons.

You have to eat in Prague too, so you have to release your title someday before you run out of cash.

The best way to see more things implemented is to buy the game, make BIS recover their investment and give them incentive to release new games and expansions.

Nice had a nice ofp feel to it. Liked the Tank sound near the end.

Bad: Please lets not have American robot voices for the other groups, make them speak they're fictional language(its real-life counter part, Czech?) in cutscenes with sub-titles and very accented english for in gameplay. Like Ofp for instance smile_o.gif

Nice tracers! The men are a little closer to running into the helicopters properly... Tank effects are looking good... Excellent.

Now I think they just have to get those placeholder sounds out of there (like the vehicle weapon), and make the mounted guns fire in bursts instead of at a constantly variable rate.

The Hind looks gorgeous, but we already knew that tounge2.gif. It's nice to see improved mounting animations, hopefully they made them better for vehicles as well. The rattling sound from t72 as it went by was a nice touch.

Loved the music.

Niiiice!!!!!!!!!!

The kogugjev like song together with the god old Hind realy gave me goose bumps!

Long range tank engagments... that´s just what I wanted to see!

I also apreciate the improved animation for the mounting sequence into helicopters!

But the absolutley best for me is to see the Hind cockpit view without any arcadish radar, health and compas windows, now thats a big step forward for me!

Nice ! smile_o.gif

Cockpit sound of Hind is spot-on.

A few things though:

- crew sound of T-72 is audible outside. This is nonsense, as it was in OFP and Arma. Please fix that finally.

- Crew speaks english again. Please introduce a new voiceset for at least one side. I know, I´ve already had a conversation about this with Ondreij when Arma was released, but still....this is part of the atmosphere for a game. It adds so much to the atmosphere if you sneak up to a enemy position and don´t understand a word of what they are saying.

- It looks like the animations at the checkpoint are playmove or switchmove animations, please add some random, unscripted behaviour for troops like that. Random conversations won´t do harm aswell.

- spinup time for hind still is arcadish

- no backblast of tanks while firing

Apart from that I love it. thumbs-up.gif
