George Reisman Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 I thought that program got canned.Yeah, me too. But ARMA also has the XM8 in it too... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lanny Ansar Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 Seems they're out of innovative model concepts for ANOTHER Modern-Day Warfare game...so they're gonna try to ressurect canned concepts instead. Can't wait to see the M60A2 "Starship" at this point... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rei Kuhr Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 Just to remind people: ArmA 3's Alpha test starts March 5th. I'm not sure if it's limited invites or not, but those who get in will have invites to hand out. Also, preorders will be up on March 5th, and those will come with three invites. Go here to see the details. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agares Tretiak Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 (edited) Also, for those naysayers, they've been overhauling the interface so it's less cumbersome and it'll be running on Steam only. Alpha access can be granted through invite or by buying an early access package. There's varying levels of access to the Alpha depending on what you're willing to pay. =========================================Just a quick rundown in USD: Alpha Lite: - Free, Invite Only, only lets you participate in the early alpha with no multiplayer or early mod access (ACE3 I'm sure is underway as we speak, given how snuggly close its dev team, ShackTac and BI seem to be). Alpha: - Approx 30$ USD, Is pretty much just access to the alpha, beta, and full game in that order. You also get three alpha invites. Allows multiplayer and mod access in Alpha stage. Alpha Digital Deluxe Edition: - 50$ USD, same as above, but with extra doodads like maps, soundtrack, and other fun stuff. Alpha Supporter: - 92$ USD, same as above with more goodies involved.You get Arma X, All the future DLC, a special identifying forum's badge, and your name in the game's credits.

Deadmon Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 (edited) a note on the name in game credits, it says first 500 to purchase. I would -highly- expect that 500 has already been met.DLC says "If any, does not apply to standalone expansions or sequels" The standalone expansions part is whats shitty about it. Wasnt arrowhead standalone? @Agares: yes the UI is less cumbersome. That doesnt mean the game is watered-down in terms of need to know controls, realism, ect. Something that most gamers dont want to deal with. Especially the travel-time involved in arma. Im fully planning on getting AIII, but I have no expectation for its playerbase to be huge.

Deadmon Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 Well then yes it is wrong haha. I didnt bother to look because I dont have the cash to pre-order right now. Either way. Its first 500 so I would expect it to go within an hour. If you arent ordering it as it opens up then I wouldnt consider it when weighing the options.

Tsume Xiao Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 I doubt my comp can run it. I struggle graphics wise with ArmA 2. :(At some point I'll have to either get a new GPU or rebuild my comp completely. I'd love to play this if they have fixed the physics issues and other stuff that ArmA 2 had. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caleb Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 (edited) The requirements are surprisingly high. :\ That doesn't bode well for probably a good number of our ARMA guys. EDIT: Also, near the bottom it says the full game is 44.99 euro, but near the top it says $32.99 USD and you get the full game and beta. Does that mean it's going a minecraft-route? Lesser price if you buy now, versus when it is released? Because if so, awesome. I can afford that. Edited March 2, 2013 by Caleb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Afevis Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 (edited) The requirements are pretty much the same as PS2. Dual Core, video card from 2006 (which you can pick up a modern equivalent of for about $40), 2GB RAM (PS2 requires 4). http://www.arma2.com/customer-support/support_en.html Arma2's recommended requirements are pretty much exactly the same as this set-up as well.

Mister Party-pooper poops on all my parties. I digress however, if it keeps the annoying CoD kids (read: the annoying kids who play CoD and think it's the be all of FPS gaming) out of my game, I'm pleased as Ffffin' punch and I'd not want them to water down anything. It's ArmA, for heaven's sake. It'll still have a large enough player base to make it worthwhile, especially since the exposure the game has gotten lately through Steam and DayZ alone have piqued a lot of interest, plus all the favorable press for it's release. I'm a tad worried some players will be hype-fags but who knows, maybe they'll actually stick around once they see what it has to offer in terms of challenge and scale.

Deadmon Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 (edited) no no. I wasnt advocating they water it down. Simply saying that while the game is going to be badass for sure I dont think its playerbase will be much larger than Arma II. Like I said Im getting it too, just being realistic in terms of expectations. :PIn terms of DLC / credits chat I was just highlighting little exceptions they hid to the side to help people purchase the right pack. As I see it the deluxe is best value as most arma success come from mods or base version / stand alone versions.

Caleb Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 (edited) Hey, the playerbase could be equally as large as ARMA 2 and I'd be perfectly happy. As long as there's not a distinct lack of players and servers, I'm just fine, and I very much doubt there ever will be. EDIT: Also, way to change the forum theme while I hit "POST". :C It made my whole screen freak out. Edited March 3, 2013 by Caleb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
