Console takes over Crysis. Arma on consoles Wanted

Now that Crysis proves possible on consoles, i want Arma on consoles next. then there would be no more reason to game on PC

They wouldn't be able to optimise it well.

Hmm can your consoles handle a 1000 AIs :D

Those are your two reasons for gaming on PC? :lol:

Good luck, I guess. ARMA has a ridiculous control setup.

rofl...

What if you want FULL HD 1080P, 4X FSAA, 16X Anistrophic Filtering, DX 11, Tesselation? Not to mention better controls with mouse + keyboard?

you would have to assign 20 things to each button. :D

Soon the only exclusives the PC will have are RTS

Even if 100% of the crapload of PC exclusives out there were on consoles, PC would still be the way to go, for competent people. I suppose TC isn't one of those.

Yes Crysis was possible on consoles....

...at 480p and medium settings.

I'm so shocked.

Let me correct you there: Crysis "console cut down" edition prove's possible on consoles running at 30fps, sub-HD, and overall less graphical quality and technically. Then there would be no reason to play on PC because console is a lesser experience overall. *lol wut?*

and while all compressed youtube video's are capped at 30FPS. Good job. OP's intent with this thread is getting very obvious now.

Arma isn't the kind of game suited for consoles unless they scaled it back an unimaginable amount for performance and dumbed down the gameplay to the point of removing gameplay elements to make the controls work. That's in all seriousness. The reason I don't play Arma 2 is just because of the piano controls, it's why I play Project Reality mod instead of it. Bohemia would have to start from scratch on a new engine and I don't see that happening anytime soon. Maybe on next-gen consoles they might shoot for that, but you'd have to hope for REALLY good sales for Arma 3 on PC for that to happen.

In short... it's possible but it won't be the same game by any stretch of the imagination.

On a side note: I'd love to see Bohemia invest in CryEngine 3 for a Arma title. That would be freaking awesome.

Also, Crysis 2 is sub-HD. Crysis doesn't look HD either.

Show me 500vs500vs500 player FPS on consoles.

Or tens or thousands units in a game that looks better than most console games, in DX11.

Ya cant

Not even possible to map the control scheme to a controller.

ArmA 2 was planned for the 360, but was canned because it was impossible.

haha found it: http://forum.beyond3d.com/showthread.php?t=46241

Crysis= 1024x720 (TAA + edge post-process)
Crysis 2= 1024x720 (TAA + edge post-process)

Answering a question with another question is usually a sign of inability to answer the question truthfully.

Also, Crysis 2 is sub-HD. Crysis doesn't look HD either.

I presume you were being sarcastic with the 480p remark, still, just because it's sub-HD does not mean it is 480p.

WTF is that XD

They had to butcher the gameplay of Crysis 1 on the consoles just to make it work with a controller, imagine what kind of mutilation they would have to do to fit ArmA onto the consoles.

Crysis wasn't really the most complex game though, so I wouldn't call it butchered, and you have to admit its a lot easier to automatically power jump when you want to instead of having to select it through a finicky power menu. From what I've seen the gameplay isn't even different, just the changes in how powers are used.

I can see ARMA being possible on consoles, but there would have to be a LOT of button remapping (two things on one button, maybe through holding or tapping) and it would move slower, but I think its possible if console gamers are willing to spend more time searching for commands on their controllers. I mean, Flashpoint kind of did an alright job moving from PC to multiplat, with the biggest issues being technical ones and polish instead of dumbing down from what I've seen of it.

Its unwieldy on controllers, but it is possible without being dumbed down I think. Of course that depends on the wishes of the developer and if they want to dumb it down, or keep it more complex but make it harder to play and unwieldy with the controller button layout and number of buttons.

I'd like to see them fit the control layout onto a controller.

Actually, Bohemia Interactive was planning a 360 port of ArmA II but considering that many rigs can't even run the game at a decent framerate I'm not sure what would have happened if it was released on the 360.
