Anyone noticed Zamak instead of Kamaz. Must because of legal issues

well with the all the videos out seems like there would be nothing going on the site for a few month.

Stop saying the russian are communist. It is clearly a modern russian army in the game. And Russians are not communist anymore

Its incorrect though. This is a Soviet national anthem, the Russian Federation anthem is the same but without the vocals. So you should change that, since its Russian Federation forces not Soviet forces that are in game.

Based on this single pic, NAPA looks like to be somekind of guerilla type force, I doubt they'll have military structure and uniformity. I also doubt they'll have armor or any air vehicles, maybe some rigged civilian vehicles with heavy mgs if that. I wonder how the other factions will be played out in campaign, so far it seems like- opfor(USMC,CDF), blufor(Russia,ChdKZ), independent-NAPA. But maybe Russia will play a diff role rather then just be an enemy as ChdKZ. In the vid it didn't indicated about who Russians will be fighting/sided with, but it makes sense for Russians to have all the modern technology to go up against USMC. Of course as user missions and campaings start to appear different versions of conflict will be played out. And how would you be able to tell the difference between some vehicles that are shared by 3 (maybe 4)forces? You don't want to fire on a friendly Mi-8 or UAZ.

Saving the best for last, I guess. Up to this point there was never any screens or videos featuring the Russian armed forces or NAPA. Maybe the official trailer had some russians but I think they look more like CDF. NAPA is still a mystery

How come there is no pics of Russian forces so far? No modern russian tanks or weapons. I doubt russian faction will be the russian army. Maybe small security force.

I think the user made campaigns could be a lot more interesting in Arma2, since it got all this different forces/factions to mess with. And I bet the next factions will be the CDF, then Russia(no russian forces in game right?) then NAPA. EDIT: Just saw the thread about NAPA.

Nice

Go to gogamer.com i already got my boxed version in two days in fact just by regular mail. Its not that impressive.

Yes if you live in US you can go to gogamer.com which is a US site and order it. The pushed back the release day to October 15. They will ship you out a brittish version which is exacly the same as american one, out of california. This is a fact man. For more details read the first post and go to gogamer.com and search for arma.

I'm sorry if this already been said. But for those of you who live in USA and Canada and you would like to get a boxed version of QG without waiting till May next year, you can pre-order it on gogamer.com. The release date is Oct 15 so i think they will ship out on Oct 15. I do not have guarantee for people who live in Canada or other countires (Mexico etc.) Gogamer ships it out of California so american costumers can get it for sure. And i beleive it will be the British version which uses 505 publisher. Thats how my Arma came anyway.

I've read on Wikepedia, that there is a project of converting old OFP- Cold War Crisis into the Arma starting with islands, the original campaign and then the resistance campaign later on. There were even a couple of screenshots which looked pretty good. Anybody knows when its planned to be finnished or anything about it.

Thanks for the geography lesson. I didn't say that US is a whole northern hemisphere. i did say gogamer might not ship to OTHER countries, i just don't want to list all of them. plus who knows if people even play that game in Latin countries. Anyway too bad they don't ship to Canada maybe in a little while.

What about an IV with nutrients so you don't have to get up from you computer to eat. Â We will be all set then. o wait we'll need something to go number 1 and number 2 in. Anybody whatched the south park episode where they all play war of worldcraft for like a week straight.

Thanks for the feed back. The car vanishing happened right after the talk with the colonel. I drove around the town where hospital is i didn't use roads to get to the boat. Was i supposed to kill Draco some how, the last i saw him in the missions is a cutscene of him doing the war crime and driving off to base and thats it. Well what lighthouse are you talking about to assasinate the colonel the one thats on the other side of the island has guards there and if i kill them the colonel flyes out. Of course the guards at the base tried to stop me but since they are not real people but retarded ai it wasn't very hard to escape

DANGER SOME SPOILERS Mission ver 1.06 and Arma 1.08 Thanks for fast feedback. I'm suprised i'm the first one. Your mission is great by the way we need more like that. ARMA seems to be more enjoyable when playing lone wolf missions rather then trying to reacreate a large scale battle, which i've never enjoyed even when it was tryed in OFP. I also like your style its very similar to some russian mission makers, with kind off holywood story line and its twist and turns. Yours is not very holywood but more realisicly military, but the story line keeps you going. The problems i've encountered was a couple of weird delete vehicle messages. For example I drove a land rover to the castle. After the talk with the officer the error line came on and the car vanished. A couple more of those came on. Nice emmersion but you should put more warning i drove the 4X4 after the battle at the base cause i didn't wanna run all the way to the rubber boat. On drive to the castle there is a weird farm house with an ammo ural and a uaz trying to escape which i caught and killed. My point is i drove right into the farm next to the town where a war crime is commited, well when cutscene rolled in i was killed in the 4x4 trying to reload the mission would cause a crash to windows. i guess you didn't entend driving for the player, sorry i had enough running to the military base at the start of part two. part one when on smoothly with the ambulance and staff i crawled to it trhough the fence hole got in to ride in a back and it took me across the border. At the beggining of part 2 for about 10 sec fps do drop but then its back to normal( i use dell xps with dual 2 core duo 2.14 i think porccesor wih 2 gig ram).All my settings are on high except for one is one medium i do get a fps drop not in your mission but in general when looking through sniper scope in the woods . I just dashed for the mountain base which is one downfall is all the running you intend. For example on the way to the rubber boat i didn't use the hospital but drove around all the towns straight to the boat. And the instructions on assasinations are not clear am supposed to enter the base and kill him or take sniper point which is impossible since the base is on the highest point in the island so i just walked to the base entrance where there is a sitting sniper listening to that horror music from OFP and walked to where the chopper was taking off and shot the colonel before he climbed into it. When i got to the island pick up point i did call the radio with the character saying all i have to do is wait. I waited like 20 arma minutes nothing came so i went in the boat to the home base the pilots where just sitting inside the chopper i flew the chopper to the island  and a pilot's dialog went: "welcome back major" and thats it, that where i'm stuck, is that how it supposed to end me being flown back to the base. Probably the best sp mission i've played in arma, its very interseting hard to stop. It does get a little ramboish till the end but you can't avoid that i guess.

I'm stuck on part 2 after where you assisinate the colonel and go to the pick up island. I guess the chopper should come and pick me up but nothing happens. I waited at that pick up island for a while then drove the boat where it says return to base the chopper was in the middle of the base i guess its not taking off to go the pick point island. I did call the radio the pilots go into the chopper but don't fly it they just sit there.

Let me also add i know that Arma isn't a rambo game i've learned that when i got it after not playing flashpoint for like a year or more. Even in flashpoint being a rambo offline is just getting used to controls and low difficulty setting for the ai. In arma cover is essential just like in real world but when you peep out of cover to take a shot and the guy shoots you from 200 meters away with like one shoot. plus the ai take multiple single shots at you, what i mean is if i try to do that i become very inacurate i have to re aim after single shot or burst. plus alot of comfrontations don't have cover we just shoot in open field. They should have made a tactical civil war simulation.

Am i the only one who has this. The ai in the armory shoot like they are olympic gold medalist super snipers . One time in defend your position challenge i run into those bomb shelter bunker things, well i spotted the slodier running from the little window or opening on the side he was like 5 feet away well before i could do ANYTHING there was ONE shot (through the same little window) and i was killed. i also think they have superman sense of hearing since sometimes they can spot you like 150-200 meters away while you are crawling. Any body has expreinced this ai is unrealisticly accurate with super fast reflexes, they don't even aim or train their sights on you.

I don't know if this was posted before, but this is for US/Canada players. GoGamer.com is selling 505 version of the ArmaA, fully english. I ordered mine on Sunday night and got it on wendnesday (priority mail) in a nice little DVD case, i'm not sure if they are selling Australian of UK versions, but it comes patched to 1.04, so GoGamer.com is acting like a middle man. Well upon receiving the game upgrading it to 1.05 and playing it a little i'm impressed and i don't understand other peoples view about it. I have a dual core and run it on full setting well not "very high" but on "high" settings it runs fine and smooth. I think that this game is a lot different then OFP. It maybe based on its engine but it feels so different, i don't know i haven't played OFP for more then a year. But its a lot better its huge leap forward from flashpoint, and i love the textures and new sounds i think everything is much better the any addon that was ever released. I love the new island, the game is more realisitic then OFP, it makes OFP looks arcade i mean even soldiers walk a lot like real people now. I mean i've noticed there is a couple single player missions that are exact the same as in OFP well this is just to show you how ArmA is an improvement. I do love the campaing its different having no central character i think it gives you a bigger feel for the battle, also i think its a big hint for how Game 2 is gonna be i doubt there'll be a central character there. Well the only negative things that i've experienced is that its very difficult to spot an enemy i have distant view set to like 2000 but still a lot of time i get shot and not see where the enemy is. Also it a lot harder to shoot and aim, the recoil got very real life feel to it. And the enemy always shoots at you at full auto and i don't think they expirience a recoil which is kinda frustrating they all very good shot from big distances 150-200 meters. One bug that i have frustrations with is how AI can see through bushes and tall grass and use it to kill you. Other then this i like the game. BIG QUESTION: How do i unlock the locked single layer missons.

So what? Â Codemasters was in business for 25 years. Â It doesn't mean anything. Â Plus who cares who publishes it? Â As long as its not EA, but that doesn't matter anymore as you guys are being treated worse. Â "cough" starforce "cough" You know i live in US and i'd take any publisher be it EA, Ubi, Codemasters or whatever it takes as long as we get the game (in box) by this year end. And speaking of dnwld version, EA game NFS:Carbon has a downloadable verson and i guess most of the people would have to dl it a few times over because they kept getting it corrupted. I'm sure people with 56dl won't be very happy redonwloading the game over and over again beacause of corruptions.

Okay then but is the game going to be completely in english or german. I'm talking about english speech and text. Cause if the text in German there is no point for english speaking community to order. How are we suppose to understand the mission briefings and even set the game settings. Having voices in English only does a one-third of a job.

Now i'm not trying to blame anyone at all. My point is, is that U.S. is completely forgoted. It almost seemes like and i hope its not that Armed Assault is European only game. And the reason why i have made such a heated comment, is that is i haven't played flashpoint in like 2.5 years. But even though i'm not a computer gaming geek. I still look forward to it. To tell you the truth i'm only awaiting 3 games. That is NFS: Carbon which is like 1 month of gaming. Battle of Brittian which is a flight simulator, which is by the way is made in Russia (Ubi publisher) and Armed Assault. I'm just anxtious since i haven't played computer games for a very long time. Since my computer gaming phase was over when i got my driving license. Its just one thing that kinda ticked me off is one of those European websites with Armed Assault  reveiws, which supposedly have been translated to english, it had screenshots of like game menu, mission brifiengs, game settings, and the words on the in-game screenshot were in English not in polish or french but english, even though it was on some European website representing a certain country. Now if those screenshots had been in website's country native language then i would've accepted ArmA as European Game only. And if South Africa is getting the game before the States/Territories do then i'm happy for them. At least somebody in the world won't be felt forgotten and will enjoy the game. I know that game doesn't sell very good in states, but the main reason is  lack of advertisment(depends on the publisher) at least thats what i think, american kids don't know what the game is about and how good it is. The only reason i ever picked it of the shelve, is that i come from Kyrgystan, and i was very suprised to see the familiar UAZ on a screenshot on the back cover of the box, one of my neighbors had one, not military of course, just regular russian jeep. That picture of the UAZ is the only reason why i bought OFP rather then like Rainbow Six. To answer the question of where to buy, well for me right now, absolutely nowhere, haven't got a clue . Got it off my chest now, sorry for such a long post.Thanks
