a new technological giant emerges.

sorry hermit but that looks like phail

After seeing that 1,500 person battle on youtube, this does have my eye on it.

Looks great. definitely can't be done on consoles.

the game is a monster

The battles should be impressive! The graphics aren't much though (which is understandable).

Isn't it impossible to run this game on max details with todays hardware?

Anyway, looks impressive but not very fun...the modified version is used for training soldiers, correct?

It might be realistic....but is it fun? Gamingcucumber

Consoleboys only respond to corridoor shooters. Don't bother.

ah...well than you must be one of those people who are somehow capable of judging a games gameplay based off of screenshots...and of course mistake a game like this for a generic war game without of course realizing there is nothing even remotly similar to this game out there.

Did you miss the point where he said 250 square miles? When you render that kind of space all at one time, its not going to look like Crysis.

If a developer implements it correctly it can be more fun than run and gun shooters.

Meh, It looks impressive but I got tired of Operation Flashpoint games years ago.

I don't have time to play games like this anymore.

[QUOTE="07pops07"]

[QUOTE="OreoMilkshake"]I didn't say anything about graphics.

OreoMilkshake

you dont seem to understand what this game is like.

This game is to tactical shooters what LBP is to platformers....except rather than create levels, you create missions. The entire enviroment is pre-built for you (though there are tools for creating a new one)

This game is shaping up to be great. I'll be picking it up soon.

Even so, I actually do think it looks special. I'm quite impressed and my hype meter has gone up for this.

This game is super win. Something definitely not possible on consoles.pyromaniac223

not anymore according to the developers.

Oh Man!

The game looks like a war simulation, the polygon count looks huge and the environment details are astounding, draw distance and the player count.

My PC is quivering with the thought of the Specs required to run this game.

I can run Crysis at medium-high at 30 fps very smoothly and comany of heroes at highest settings. This games is something else though!

this game is a war simulation...thats what its designed to do.

I will probably just get the new operation flashpoint game on the Xbox when it comes out because ArmA 2 is borderlining my PC specs on the normal settings. Plus Operation will have Co-op. I'll just get ArmA2 when/if I get a new PC next year.SparkyProtocol

honestly though, OPF 2 looks kind of pathetic compared to Arma 2...and unfortunatly even OPF1. The developer walkthrough they had during E3 was just funny to watch because of how stupid it sounded.

The guy playing got hit in the head and the guy playing just kinda shrugged it off.

qaudcore at 3.2??

I hope they desgn it well enough that even my humble Laptop can play it.

core 2 extreme dual core 2.8

he was not in god-mod...he says during the end the demonstration that they decided to play with damge on.

and even if it was off...there were just so many other issues in the demo that were just funny.
