ArmA's ok. I sure hope they make mission editing quicker in ArmA 2. It takes ages to make a mission even when you know what you're doing.
Please put in some decent anims other than useless dancing.

Yes Trash Can Man, I do agree with you on that, and I hope that I'm wrong, because I'll be lying if I say that I won't buy OFP2. I can allways get the two of them, or at list play the demos.
The one thing about ArmA and ArmA 2 is that BIS is been working on ArmA 2 at the same time they trying to iron out the many bugs in ArmA, so hopefully, the quality and response to correct possible issues with ArmA 2 will be much faster... At list they get to work in another big development, like for example ArmA 3, Lol.
Don't forget that ArmA is nothing more than OFP 1.5 really, and I don't thing I'm far wrong by saying that ArmA 2 will have a much faster "bug squashing" than ArmA.
As you can see I'm full of hope, lol.

Nito, just how do you know the creators of OFP2 aren't going to support their upcoming release??? Fact is you don't. Now let's talk ArmA support.... Most people would agree that the creators of ArmA have been very slow in correcting certain issues dealing with gameplay. Granted they eventually get around to fixing a few problems here and there. Until OFP2 gets released, I think it's best not to pass judgement on support until we actually see the game. To this point ArmA has been nothing more than eye candy..... in my opinion.

I really hope they fix the thing where you know when your using an m16 203 or m4 203 the units hand is going through the GL on the bottom of the rifle.. I really hope they fix that.

Remember when we seen the first pics of WIP ArmA? We used to think that the addons created for OFP by the comunity did look way beter than them WIP pics for ArmA. I'm sure that BIS will deliver a much better simulation than we expect, and don't forget the support, you not going to get that with whoever is creating OFP2.
As long as the terrain, the AI, the driving and flighying are much better than in ArmA now, I'll be happy with ArmA 2.

The screenshots do look fantastic, but you only have to head over to the ArmA photography thread in the BI forums to see that this can be very misleading. I mean i would bet that some of the positions of thoses unit models have been "posed" for the shot and not taken from actual ingame action. This is what i'm seeing more and more of in the BI forums. Nice screenshots but not actual ingame action. What we never hear about though are the PC specs that the game was playing on to get that kind of quality, hell you need a top range beast to play ArmA on high i'm quaking in my boots until i find out what i'll need for ArmAII.

To be honest the only thing im looking forward to is the new AI because other than that the game looks basicly the same... I know its early days and it may improve but thats all i want out of this game. They should keep all the original unit models so we can simply take our addons and put them in the Arma 2 addons folder with out having to wait for new stuff to come out for it. We can only hope

What we will get is a not very pleasant island. :( Not that I have any porblems with russian environment, but nice european island(s) could be better.
I do hope that BIS will improve the AI. Mostly in urban areas (they still get struck in bulidings, narrow streets).
EDIT: "they" I meant the ARMA1 AI

All i want from Arma 2 is improved AI in the urban area, so more variations of the M4 and a nice shiney new island but i think they should of gone for a middle eastern style because it seems that from OFP, OFP2, Arma and Arma 2 they are all based in a sort of Russian type Islands fighting Russian type enemys. Maybe thats the whole idea of it either way im happy with fighting in the fields, forrests and small towns. Im sure that some desert addons will be about.
