New Arma 3 Screens - Holy ****!! Battlefield 3 Dethroned

[QUOTE="hiphops_savior"][QUOTE="XVision84"]

A very realistic first person shooter series only for PC.

You shoot guns in Mirrors edge, that doesn't make it a shooter.

Looks sterile and lifeless. It needs BF3's dynamic radiosity and megatons of smoke&explosions. gpuking

See this is funny, Because the scale of a game like Arma, goes way beyond anything ever done in a series like Battlefield.

I hope they:

- make the game look as authentic and life-like as possible (we're talking about a Greek island here after all)

- make an enjoyable single-player campaign that'll also be playlable in co-op mode

- more urban combat and possible naval battles

- enable support for more than 32 players online (64 player servers would be cool)

- don't release the game in beta state (read: remove the glitches and optimize the net code and graphics engine)

Also, the game looks hideous (ArmA II) and pistols are USELESS.

If you still disagree, then tell me why Forza and GT are considerend 'racing games' when they are simulators too as well? Hmmm, that's what I thought.

Other than Draw distance it looks mediocre.

Would decent be a better word for you? :P

The draw distance is very impressive. :)

They could be screens running on low settings (seeing the lack of Anti-Aliasing in the screenshots), and also this game has an entire year of development to go. Arma 3 has a lot of potential, I can just imagine these screenshots at higher resolutions, with more AA, and those draw distances, with that scale, etc. It's still very early on in development, but it's reaching what Battlefield 3 looks like, and by the time it's released it should look much better (especially when maxed).

Really?

The physics are horrible on ARMA3...

I'm sure Battlefield 3 will look "prettier", even if it's scale is miniscule compared to Arma III. Most people care more about animations, envioremental and characters details and destructability than scale. So even if Arma III is more impressive technicaly BF3 will still be considered prettier.

That said, I'm waiting for Arma III far more than for Battlefield 3. I just prefer tactical shooters over arcade shooters.

I guess Uncharted 2 must look atrocious to you then.

[QUOTE="SpeedsterCards"]quick question... what is arma?hiphops_savior

A very realistic first person shooter series only for PC.

Bebi_vegeta

That's Arma II. Arma III has full PhysX support, meaning ragdolls, the whole nine yards...

[QUOTE="SpeedsterCards"] Its a simulation shooter. 1shot kills, you can live for 10-15 min if you play it right.

[QUOTE="millerlight89"][QUOTE="SpeedsterCards"]quick question... what is arma?sillaris

not everyone has your taste in pointless arcade shooters, aka Blackops. die, spawn, die, spawn, helicopter perk, die, spawn. x7

That's what I'm saying... hopefully this will be corrected, or else ouch...

Some shots from Eurogamer

From past experience we can say it will be too inconsistent to be graphics king, but no way does it look bad or mediocre like some people say.

It looks nice, i think BF3 looks better though. And the people complaining about the physics implementation, seriously? It is obviously unfinished, they even say it isn't physically correct and they are working on it, right in the video. They were just showing off that their engine supported those types of physics now.ferret-gamer

Hey, if your going to show off something... atleast do it right... right?

The game is still far from being finished.

Battleflop 3 was never a good looking game to begin with. Excessive use of high contrast, bloom etc is only a tool used to hide how ugly things are in that game. ArmA3 pisses all over it.

Dem bullshots ChupacabraIII

This is not a console game.

Quite possibly the most overrated game in history when it comes to graphics. The boat scene was horrible....

BF3 never had the throne.

[QUOTE="ChupacabraIII"]Dem bullshots RyviusARC

This is not a console game.

BI has a habit of releasing super high-res with lots of AA screens before launch.

What you can notice pretty easily is the lack of shadows on most of the objects in the world.

As said before in this thread, ArmA is widely inconstant with its graphics to ever be up there with the best.

The game also has Ragdoll physics this time around and an entirely new physics system for the vehicles and objects in the game.

Also Who would play Arma II over BFBC2?Grey_Eyed_Elf

I do think BF3 will be great game, but just like BF2 and BC2 before I will be bored to death with it after few months. Arma III I will play for years.

The only reason why I still have BF2 installed on my PC is Project reality and since BF3 wont be supporting mods all it will be is yet another arcade shooter. Fun for a while, but lacking things that would make me stick longer than few months.

[QUOTE="Bebi_vegeta"]

[QUOTE="AdrianWerner"]Depends which physics you mean :) Ragdolls and boxes being thrown around? Sure. But vehicle (tanks, planes, helis) physics will be far more advanced than in BF3

I don't know... the tank is pushing the container without even touching it.

[QUOTE="Bebi_vegeta"]

[QUOTE="AdrianWerner"]So yes, worse world physics, but superior vehicle physics. Altough I doubt thise weightless boxes will be left in the final game

Tanks look pretty good in BF3... let's wait and see.

Arma is not about graphics, it's about realism and mods.
