This multiple publishers thing isn't anything new guys! OFP did have more publishers then only codies and other games also work with other publishers, but most do have one for America and one for rest of the world or at least something like that. That is not the case for ArmA as we all know. And that makes the multi language problem, we have countries with different publishers and dates next to each other, so to protect the publisher who is on the wrong side of the release dates the game is being localised. The fact that Morphicon is called the GERMAN publisher must gave it away why it does NOT have the ENGLISH language format in it, didn't it?

Well I love the "lobby server" idea Having played phantasy star online on the xbox, their lobby's (a big space ship where you could interact and all) where the best thing of the online experience. And it surely will be in ArmA if it will be nicely set up. With all sorts of decoration and objects to interact and have a nice time just hanging around with other players and maybe some locations for meetings for differend kind of missions and the best thing about the arma time zones is that you could start the "mission" at the exact time it is at that moment and if you stay to long and have to great time you will see the time going by only problem is the location of the host offcourse :P but hey sahrani most have it's own time zone

As far as I know, there have been mentioned an chzech, german and 505 version of an collector's edition. The 505 one will be in english but as you probably allready know, 505 does not have the USA in there region. So unless you can order it online you have to wait till an US publisher knocks on BIS' their door and also feels to have an extra Collector's edition out, what offcourse would be cool and a good reason to catch some extra money but at the same point is more work for them. well don't lose hope and all, i help you wishing if it helps

Rotterdam, Netherlands going to Germany the first day it's out, don't want to get it by mail. I'm going to get it myself! And offcourse when the 505 is here that one will be in my hands the very first second. Buying 3/4 copies of ArmA for myself including the special editions

I'm glad that the game isn't much realistic than it will be. From what I've seen and know from OFP it is pretty nice centered between real world realism and gameworld realism. And even though this maybe not be the answer you want, it all WILL be modded by the community, and there will also bound to be the less realistic mods around in a year. Why? because it's a game and not everyone wants ultra realism over fun. Me, well I guess it will be the same for me as in OFP, make it a bit more realistic and I be hidding behind my desk to survive longer than 5min. but I don't really like it to be less realistic because it's less to challenging. So I'd probably play without most of the mods for the first years Let's all just wait untill this game comes out, VBS2 is due Q2 so probably almost as far ready as ArmA so I guess anything can happen for ArmA in the future

even more frustrating than the naked skins; clown skins all the way

hope you aren't serious or at least haven't seen any of the current screenshot if you are talking about screens like this: old screen than I can agree abit, still this game isn't about graphics but if you are talking about newer screens like this: newer screen (are newer i know but some are done on lower specs) then i have no idea of what you mean with high quality

I loved the beginning except for the added transition effects, the combination of the different shots was verry good as an intro or trailer, but the rest I didn't really found much more interresting than in the original vids. Nice job

you heared the glass break when the grenade went in side the building, the grenade went off after But must say as I didn't ever missed it in OFP, don't think I will miss it in ArmA

The demo is going to be in english, ain't it? So there will be an english stringtable, wouldn't it? Probably not complete with al the mission text but for MP or something it will be do able

we've allready seen something about glass in buildings in the elevator video didn't we? guy trew a grenade inside a building, you could hear the glass break (if i remember correct) but I don't recall seeing the glass breaking, but the vid was of an old build

Uploading it with music soon! Well I meant sound but this rocks too :P

thnx for the heads-up Nice entry. Hate to be Steve :P But DAMN, that shore looks well, REAL. Too bad there is still no music but doesn't make it less spectaculair. You can even see some underwater flora. Looks funny seeing all the guys walking in uniform and then walking up to a chopper with guys in shirts,shorts and flip flops :P

Ooh okay, didn't know that the US will only be in ACU in ArmA. Is it stated anywhere or all <s>speculation</s> taken from the screenshots?

I'd say that the south-sahrani flag is more UN like flag for the "peace keepers" and it are the US troops in the M113. If I'm correct

I agree with the above But, don't have that much knowledge of warfare, shouldn't there be one DEFENDER and one other ATTACKER? and wouldn't it be realistic if the ones defending a base or something be able to respawn in a barrack or something? This being limited and then goes to an other base and than getting transfered back to the action as reÄnforcement? this all offcourse does not really have to do anything with ArmA but more with the mission design

i guess there's an extra line somewhere that says "remove weapon" or something like that. should be modabble

that sounds like fun yeah! the third is running right? :P I love the latest reactions on the clips, now it's more like: "Wow cool, well this and that could be fixed. But the community can do that also." instead of: "IEWL BIS FIX THIS AND THAT"

something like this can be done better i know just a quickie

If I get the change, money, time I'm going to the nearest country to get my version of ArmA even if it's not yet in english, can look through that. As long as I get me the collector's edition I'm happy

amen totally agree with you padre I'm one of the lucky people on the right side of that big pond so I have to wait a max. of 4months from now and I do understand German a bit so I could even get that version on release date. and here I see people placing insults to BIS when the european publisher was announced a well, strange world we live in i guess let the next months come!

I can't recall seeing this workin in MP in OFP:E and how do you know that it where other players on the screen? I do hope this works, can't check it in OFP:E just stopped paying Live, and don't have friends... who have OFP:E Will see in the next months if this feature is implemented

I'm sure the Pope will be praying for us with all of the rest of the vatican city for ArmA to be released online before christmas, as they can't play at that time and will be much to busy. But atm (can't believe I'd ever say something like this) I'm keeping myself busy with BF2143, it's better then molesting F5 buttons around here. I'm really happy to have it 100% confirmed that 505 will distribute here in Holland but still I'm thinking of taking that trip to Prague, love the special edition

this delay is only for 505 games to set up all the advertising and production things

300ft * 30,48 cm = 9144 cm, that's about 90m. That's not really far... Actually, I haven't seen one screenshot where the grass is visible that far, it's like 30-40m. Dream on... I hope you're right but I thought it was Linda who's responsible for the vegetation and there were no plans AFAIK to release Linda as a tool for modders. (still I wonder how islandmakers can add vegetation to their islands...) I ment if you tweak the grass to 2km, but your vd is only 1km
