Just take a look at this video. The awesome textures and modelling of every little bit of vehicles. Much improved weather affects and everything just looks vastly superior to that of ArmA!

Take a look!:

Looks a bit better. I picked up the original hoping for a tactical shooter. The AI or lack thereof made it just a scripted mess instead. Hopefully this one addresses that.

Yes I did. And yes theres severe AI problems in the game. When its supposed to be tactical, and all I need is a corner to find to get the enemies to just continuously turn the corner and die by my gunfire, theres issues. Dont be fooled by scripted sequences. When they flanked you, it wasnt AI. it was scripted to be that way. Theres a difference.

It wasnt a terrible game, just the AI and the bugs killed it for me.

Arma and OPF games had better AI's than most of the FPS's and war simulators!

For example:COD4,Vegas2 etc...

COD4 for sure. Another heavily scripted game.

But Vegas imo had some of the best AI I have ever seen. Everytime I had to redo an area, the enemy would use a different tactic based on how I entered the area, or how they were placed at the time. I died so many times in that game, but each time(well almost each time :P) I would laugh because I got totally owned by the AI. Doesnt happen often.

Okay they used different tactics in Vegas but they were spawned when you entered an area...

I will agree I believe the Vegas AI were much better. They do use diffrent tactics each time. And I have never seen them spawn in my area. Either they are in an area I have purposly went in to because of the mission or they show up after I have arrived in an area. I am still looking forward to ArmA 2 as I love tactical shooters. The old spray and pray games like COD and Combat Arms and such get boring so quickly. Also I have never noticed hackers in the more tactical games. I think it is because it takes them so long to find anyone to kill that the thrill of cheating is taken away from them.....Hehe

I probably won't be able to max out this game, I have trouble with ArmA running on maxed. 10 KM is just too much for my 5200+ Dual Core and 8600 GTS...
