ArmA didn't generate the popularity and funds that ofp did, and for it to happen again would put them in financial jeopardy


You seem to forget there was still a lot of copies sold AND CM didn't take their cut of sales this time around.

The way I'm looking at it, ArmA1 was a very good "beta", well worth the money (compared to crap that is on the shelves these days) and I'm feeling that ArmA2 will be/looks to be a great step forward to a full product.
.... and lets face it, theres nothing like it available elsewhere, so whats the problem.

AND, different from ArmA1, ArmA2 will be flooded with lots of (ArmA1) nice user made mods EARLY in its life, because lets face it, very few people who played OFP at the end and hailed it as the best game ever, play just vanilla OFP. The 100's of addons and mods made OFP what it was.


@Old Bear,
Don't feel you have to defend yourself to everyone and their "odd" perspective.
This site is an awesome product.

@Alpha125 : I have read this
"If they make this kind promotion (low quality, some pics and a lot of letters) they are afraid of the competition."
twice and I don't understand your point.

I, Old Bear, am the sole responsible of the choice of the matters published in this new, I am an independent new poster, even if I am an ArmA fan and somewhat quite dedicated to the game. So if the choice of texts and pics doesn't please you I am the responsible guy, BIS or 505 has nothing to do with that.

As I can't go to London myself without a bit of planning, I have to rely on the guys there to get infos.
The Twitter channel was announced on our site and I believe it was fair to give you a hint of what you can get on it.
I have choose to publish an extract from the "TacticalGamer" review because I found it well written and interesting, and I give you the link to get the full review on Tactical Gamer Forums
Of course, the video taken from Jason, the TacticalGamer are of very poor quality ... but I have choose to publish it because it shows items the guy was quite enthusiast about and want to share with the community.

As a gamer myself, with some experience ... I enjoy feeling this enthusiasm because I feel a big event is ahead !

I think a lot of the lag is caused by the phone. My old pone used to lagg when there was a sudden lighting change. Hopefully this is the case!

I've heard that the guys in BIS have said that its already performing better than ArmA1, hopefully that wasn't bullshit to make us buy it!

BIS need to release a good title here, or they are screwed, ArmA didn't generate the popularity and funds that ofp did, and for it to happen again would put them in financial jeopardy (IMHO) - SO, hopefully we won't have a buggy piece of crap!

Edit: Bit enthusiastic there posting your message twice. - JynX

"A" demo would be bad.

A demo that is not bull of bugs and frustrates/disappoints the population of earth would be good.

Weapon sway,morphine etc etc, remind you of any community made Mods ?
DEMO is a must so ppl can see if it will run of their PC or if everyone has to buy a new PC/VGA like OFP to Arma caused also to see if its a laggy bug infested crap like Arma was before 2 dozen patches.

If they make this kind promotion (low quality, some pics and a lot of letters) they are afraid of the competition.

They are also pushing forward to be the first on the market. The expirience with other games tells me it isn't the best way.

4 me as gamer it is only the game itself that counts! Let them their time but I wanna play a good game that will live with its own dynamic for years- like OPF.

nice marketing, its really important to steal the ofp 2s aduience, and make them pay a little attention to Arma, and a demo would really capture a customer or two, I love that "pull" strategy
