Just when BF3 was getting all the praise....BAM BAM BAM!!! Here comes ArmaIII to put BF3 back in it's place!!

The draw distance and detail is sick and being able to enter EVERY building has me reminiscing of STALKER and how awesome it is to explore everything and really feel immersed and lost in a foreign land.

I can't wait to flash bang and clear a town building by building. Hell I can't wait to accidentally call in an Air Strike on my head lol.

I can smell the gun powder and hear the empty shell hitting the ground already!

Gimme a release DATE!

Always loved the ArmA series, tho you can't compare this to BF3 or MW3, they are all different games that offer different things.

TimmyShire4615d ago

ArmA 3 is the real man's war game. Takes a lot of dedication to get into this, no twitch-shooting like in MW3.

JsonHenry4615d ago

It is a very good game franchise. No run and gun here folks.

Looks good, but still, Battlefield > Arma 3

MARKUS_MAX1MUS4615d ago (Edited 4615d ago )

You really have never played an arma title have you?

It makes BF look like an arcade game, its a sim and it has EVERY Military piece of equipment from bulldozers to ultility vehicles and almost every gun aswell wether it be base game or modded in.

mods, something which BF3 WONT have. Thats a big negative on the game right there. Seems theres just a big fanboy following of BF3 because of its pretty graphics, graphics dont make a game good.

I agree but Arma isn't for everyone though. A lot of people prefer more arcade type games and get frustrated with battle sims. I prefer Arma for its realism and for the fact it punishes you for making a wrong judgement. You can't run around doing VC award winning runs here

ATi_Elite4615d ago

Battlefield > Arma3......Please elaborate!

are you talking game play or graphics?

either way I'll take Arma3 over BF3 any day of the week! Arma3 is hardcore and a way harder challenge than BF3. Both games are everything PC Gamers want but if i had to choose just one I would go with Arma3 cause the SP has more of an RPG feel to it and the MP is so realistic.

Guys that made OpFlash right? Looks fun - but the RPG/sandbox elements interest me the most.

iamnsuperman4615d ago

Operation flashpoint cold war crises. Not the other ones. Arma is the spiritual successor.

Bohemia’s war against Arma 3’s misinformation misuse

From GI.biz: "Back in October, a video clip started doing the rounds on social media, showing what appeared to be the Ukrainian artillery attacking Russian tanks. The footage was shared thousands of times across social media platforms.

There was just one small problem; the footage in question was not real.

It was, in fact, a video of gameplay from Arma 3, a military simulation title made by Czech studio Bohemia Interactive.

This is far from the first time the game has been used to fake footage of warzones. In the past, Arma 3 has been used to spoof videos of conflicts in Afghanistan and Syria, as well as military action between Israel and Palestine. It’s even been used to fake videos of a fictional war between India and Pakistan. This isn’t even the first time that footage of the Ukrainian war has actually turned out to be Arma 3 footage."

When these videos make their way into mainstream news it just shows me how incompetent these networks are. You could blame YouTubers, click bait titles, you could try to do something about it as the dev, but these are huge news networks with a lot of money poured into em and hundreds of employees. Perhaps if they weren't so set on being first they'd ensure that they aren't putting out fake footage as often as they do.
