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.

I don't care wich faction it is I know its gonna be awesome and weird/ artsy, like the cow video

I met a guy a few years ago that actually had filmed cows during 24 hours, when they walked around, sleeping and eating and stuff

At 0:34 you can see some new "mounting animation" on the mi17 looks really smooth and fast.

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

[tribun83 0]

it is just awesome!!!

difinately made my day after todays opf 2 disappointment...

[max power 21]

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 . 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.

[Commando84 0]

oh the new one was a bit different  

some more action in it this time  

definitely got the ofp feel, I even recognized the kolgujev song  

edit, the interiors of the hind was like 100% more detailed now then it was in the GC 08 videos  

sandbags looked crazy good looking! They got to have upgraded the poly count alot on them

[Maio 293]

Nice video !

Everything looks nice .I love the new mount animations

[bionic 10]

Hehe that video saved my day downloading the HD now to give better feedback.

[derk yall 0]

[mattxr 9]

[Colossus 2]

Great vid! Can't wait.

Mi-24 'Hind'

[hoot 0]

Good answer folks!

[Placebo 29]

As Commander Worf almost said "Today is a good day to be Bohemia Interactive"

[Spy17 1]

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!

Plz don´t go OT or you will be banned from this thread we are just enjoying the moment.

Btw. you like BSG? Then you should know this sentence:

"All this has happened before, and will happen again."

I watched the trailer in HD now and it looks even more fantastic.

[luemmel 20]

best video ever. the arma 2 ingame tank scene at the end looks like the ofp2 render vid :-) i cant waiting for arma2.

[Balschoiw 0]

Nice !

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.
