zork 10 Posted April 11, 2010 Can anyone from the dev team or someone who knows can confirm or deny that Arma 2 is coming to PS3? I don't know if I have to buy a new PC to play Arma 2 or wait a few weeks/months to play it on PS3... Thank you for any answers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[frl]myke 14 Posted April 11, 2010 There was an attempt to bring a Game of the same genre as ArmA 2 is to consoles. Due to the limited processing power it had to be scaled down quite a bit. People weren't quite happy with it since it lacked a lot of features that it's (at least by name) predecessor already had on PC back in 2001. So, do you think a game that already requires a high end PC to run smooth with decent graphic quality could run just fine on a console? That said, even if it would be ported, do you think it would still be the same experience as on a decent PC? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They couldn't even get the most basic reload animations right like tactical reloads. CM is a poorly run company and that game had probably the most controversial and spotty development cycles of any game ever with numerous restarts and false representations to the public. The 360 has a tri-core 3.2 GHz processor. I think it would have no problem on that end running an optimized arma. It's main problem is RAM and the video card(ati 43xx series kinda), however proper streaming(the thing has blazing memory bandwidth) can somewhat get around it. Just Cause has a view distance of like 20KM+(I forget the number buthow ever wide the map is, you can see the whole thing at all times) on the 360 and PS3, albiet with absolutely retarded AI. With a truckload of money and some extra resources BIS could get a fully functioning arma game on console. And I would bet it would look pretty good too.

Aeneas2020 10 Posted April 12, 2010 do we really have to start this topic again? there are existing threads on both OFP: DR and arma2 on consoles... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Placebo 29 Posted April 12, 2010 There are existing threads on this, but the answer is the same, there are no current plans for a PS3 title. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
