Ok so a futuristic setting that isn't 30 years ahead is fine.
Its the semi-plausible side of the future.
I do agree that making weapons that make non-nonsensical moves from the army to use primary weapons like the scar in OA which is very very limited in terms or adoption.
Its a stunt to appeal to CoD fishys
And helis are actually cool to have High tech stuff. I mean I love flying classics but those will come in mods or Exp ( Hint : MAKE a Cold war and modern Pack PLEASE, modders or Devs )
Because Arma is the best starting platform to build off of to created a military shooter that feels realistic.
Un like PR, you can make sure your scenario is what your want.
( I love PR however )
This " fresh air " destroyed OFP, and it might be a dif dev.
The point still stands, fresh air is unrealistic soldier. Your to sick and tired to enjoy the countryside and when you do get that chance your in a trap.
Because COD kiddies will demand a diminish in the TIME/REALISM/IMMERSION fun factor of the game.
Realism players or the specific market that we are require :
ALOT of time in game
Realism to the bones
which makes immersion on a " whole other level " of games
Then it will be fun for us
CoD fishys :
No immersion
therefore little play time
and realism mode is simply a 1 hit mode.
So its a preteen way of saying oh I'm better then you cuz I head shot 99 times out of a 100.
For us, we don't care about head shots, we care about those awesome moments when your behind enemy lines and an enemy patrol is walking right on top of you and you blow them away or when your 100% suppressed and you need to call in air support which is another player and confusion hits the both of you.
Those awesome movie like moments which will never happen in COD because everything is done for you and combat lasts 1.2 seconds or less!
there fore cod fishy are LITTERALY the opposite side of the market from where we stand. were like the grammar nazi and them the leet speakers.
Actually, their the type of people who love fast food like its gourmet and we are like the sticklers for extreme quality.
