VBS2 VTK - Virtual Battlespace 2 - Virtual Training Kit (VTK)

[10samm10]

The graphics could use some improvement. Everything looks flat.

[Renegade23456]

@10samm10

look when the video was posted...

[10samm10]

@Renegade23456 I am not seeing your point.

[Renegade23456]

@10samm10

they have made major improvements to it?

[Hendar23]

@10samm10 It's a military simulator, it's not designed to impress teenagers.

[zhiheng2005]

Request a price for personal copy of VBS2 on Bisimulations. Personal copy cost between 500 EURO or 850 USD

[Deloix]

Is in this simulator some AI? In ARMA2 is AI good but sometimes stupid.

[Dutchman177]

lol i played this, and well.

this looks so awesome but wen you play it then it kinda suck -_-

[dark3zz]

go and buy armed assault 1 and 2! vbs isnt for public!

[zitema1]

good video

[GabbeTek]

I just fell in love with war simulators, im not a gamer anymore, im a simuler :)

[OceanTheFreak]

i still really wanna know the first song. Just asking...

[fighterpiolt1992]

where can i buy this

[draqozan]

@fighterpiolt1992 Join the army...

[535manbearpig]

wher can i get this

[ThomasBellarusa]

I saw a torrent, but it was the lite version which contains only UK units and opfor.

So google it

[Petarosus]

Where i can obtain new weapons and technique to this game.

[imboor3d]

can someone tell me how this program works ... does it like run off arma or arma 2, i dont get it

[konrad12xpl]

@imboor3d its like arma and operation flashpoint

[ThomasBellarusa]

ArmA 1

[RangerARMA]

Жаль, что этот симулятор скачать нигде нельзя=(

[bascule42]

No..do NOT get operation flashpoint 2 dragon rising for the program. Different program, different developers & a load of crap to boot.

If you want VBS but havn't got the budget the US defense department or the UK Ministry of Defence have at thier disposal, get AmrA 2.

[w4k4]

lol where can i get this ?

[metsapeikkoo]

From the developer.

[bakuya99]

@w4k4 get arma arma2 or operation flashpoint dragon rising for the program

[w4k4]

i have arma2

[jayhelldee]

i want this so i can port the baghdad map to arma2

[M1lko01]

seriusly guys im just disappointing i was borned in 1983... it would be nice toborn in the 1993 or 2000 so when i will reach 20 -25 years i an play with those kind of stuff maybe online with server with 200-300 human soldeirs in battlefields.

[kingsman565]

@M1lko01 Why don't you join the army then do it all for real & get payed for it?

[D3MOL1T1ON]

@M1lko01 i feel ya man.. im was born in 82

[Hendar23]

@M1lko01 Don't worry man, ArmA3 is the public version, it's coming soon and has 100+ player servers. :) I played OpFalsh on a LAN years ago, four men on each team each controlling 11 AI squad mates. We battled to control the entire island. Games lasted 8+ hours. Some of the best gaming of my life.

[jonnyfilmboy]

Very nice video! The last shot of the guy running away from the burning tank seemed so ominous. He's living to fight another day.

[4IN14094]

With the up coming datadisk Op Arrowhead together with ARMA2 they are still a bargain compare with the VBS2 price tag; that is if BI managed to fix all the engine bug without creating new ones

[ckolonko]

If Bohemia put this amount of work into ArmA it would be well worth it.

[zakyzeek]

yeee

[AAMetalXJON]

Wow they actually can make good sounds, so why are arma and arma2 so shit sounds

[ebtricks]

ARMA 2 had amazing sound effects?

[Moxyz1]

this looks great but i like to have a campaign in games / story so arma2 does everything i need as i dont make missions only play around with the editor etc. saying that vbs has some great features id like to see modded into arma 2. i would love to try this sim out though but to expensive .

[NYSP22DAVID]

Man, I want the terrain/map and vehicles for ArmA2. The FLIR with the Apaches looks awesome. I wish it were in ArmA2.

[jonnyfilmboy]

It is scheduled to be added with the Arrowhead expansion pack as are the PEQ lasers! Should be awesome!!!

[aantiawp]

@jonnyfilmboy the PEQ in ArmA 2? FINALLY? sign me up, lol, what about that FLIR system? ;)

[jonnyfilmboy]

Yeah, the FLIR is listed as one of the options for Operation Arrowhead as well. Arrowhead includes a lot of US Army units and some unannounced vehicles as well. Personally, I think the AC-130 would be an easy item to transfer over from VBS2 to Arrowhead, but no one's talking about that. I hope the PEQ lasers are added to vehicles as well like helos and C-130s. But BI seems to have the same attitude that Porsche has toward the Caymen. Keep it limited so people spend more money.

[aantiawp]

hell yes. that is awesome. but to be fair, they do need a way to pay their employees. and they are a busisness. they aren't about to release whole new factions and maps without having you pay for it you know what i mean? lol personally i don't mind spending 20-30 for a new expasion when i know it will keep them in business, i am sure they are doing their best with patches and updates.

[jonnyfilmboy]

Totally agree. This is a small company that is doing a tramendous about, way more than any other game developer, to improve and expand their game and offer massive support to the community. In this way, BI is unique and I think they deserve to make money for their incredible efforts. Great company!

[xyrt99]

ummm... if i crank my system. OC my cards ( i run dual 8800 GTX 256 ers)... ARMA 2 looks about the same as this... one look through the advanced settings of ARMA2 will show you it was also designed to be used with VR systems (aspect ratio options etc)

[L8KI1]

The army uses this to train

[Vinator04]

:D 50 GB RAM ... You need only 2 GB RAM

[ghilliemaster]

If this exists... then why are all of us chumps playing BF2 and the like? The work is done... use this platform to make awesome public games! NOW!

[Dslyecxi]

Do a search for ArmA2 on Youtube and you'll see that it's available if you want to pursue it.

[cappilot12]

Seriously, this is just a military version of Armed Assault 2, its even the same company

[Covertmaddroxx1]

@ghilliemaster ITs like 500 dollars for VBS

[SecuR0M]

@ghilliemaster

ArmA2 is the cheap, civvie version. The real steel VBS costs several thousand dollars.

[Skyried]

@ghilliemaster because this thing is designed as a Military training tool... individual personal copy packages cost up around $850 USD as zhiheng2005 said before.

[zorbaknecromancer]

@ghilliemaster yeah arma 2 is basicly VBS2 with gaming add-ons.

[Dslyecxi]

@zorbaknecromancer, not true. VBS2 and ArmA are very different products that share a core engine (that has been branched). ArmA2 is a newer engine than VBS2 (VBS2 is based on ArmA1). Also, OFP came first, then VBS1. ArmA1 came first, then VBS2. Since then, ArmA2 and Operation Arrowhead have come out, with no comparable product from the VBS series.

[Killersok]

Its look like the others: Arma, Operation flsahpoint, VBS 1... The arma and the Operation Flashpoint is almost same

[Armyrangers42]

I WANT THIS GAME SO BAD

[bucks2743]

wowsers!!! realistic looking!

[Hawkeye0918]

Why is it so expensive?

[Chrinik]

because its a military training tool...

[jonnyfilmboy]

It's not really a game. It's a military simulator that is incredibly expandable. Watch some other ways (in other vids) that this tool has been incorporated into training crew members how to communicate with pilots in blackhawks, how soldiers are trained to correctly interact with indigenous populations (even with a language barrier), etc. Very networkable tool with after action reports, very robust. Much larger than what appears in this video alone.

[AsILayDyingBFMV]

its exactly the same as a modded arma. jeez

[allanmunro1993]

well its going to be beter because its used as military training

[TheProgamer66]

Its looks nice.I want buy it !

[modernflyboy]

Were do you get vbs 2 I love it and have seen it on youtube in weeks:-)

[Appclypse]

no lol get the arma demo if you want to play essentially the same game without all the cool bells and whistles.

[Jimderkaisser]

The military version (VBS) are from Operation Flash Point, but militarized. All what a soldiers know in practical and theorical portion such patrol,security, Amphibious Operation ect can be used in VBS not the Civil Version because Armed Assault (civil version) don't have exactly the same realism from VBS. Example the VBS use IED,terrorist and recreate afghanistan with more 10,000 km2 they create Helmand,Kandahar,Kaboul and recreate all military vehicle/equipement from Canadian/UK/US military.

[Jimderkaisser]

The map editor on military version is in realtime, and officier can reccord the session and know who made what and who made mistake.

The real time map editor made the VBS increase difficulty from a patrol,example a no where terrorist attack or IED explosion and change the mission priority from patrol to evacuation. You can made exactly the same from Arma but isn't specialized on real military portion.

[senrat94]

This simulation was made for military's all around the world as a training device. I pretty sure its possible to get it by going to the site and contacting the people about buying it. They will then send you a price and stuff. Im also pretty sure its over 100$.

[SCORCH543]

the personal edition the only one you can buy it is 540$ plus handling and shipping

[ArmAFan]

And where did you find that price? I asked people that actually own VBS2 and they paid 1500...

[SCORCH543]

I got that price by emailing the company and asking how much it costs. They said the only version you can purchase is 549$. I know 1500$ is what it costed a long time ago but it now costs 540$ you can even email the company themself

[75ranger101]

not a clue never played vbs2

[venom1dark]

OMG look at the graphics..thier..thier awesome

[mp5mg42]

I think Virtual Battlespace is for companies and the military, not for the normal pc gamer.

[75ranger101]

its for both, its just we regular gamers could buy a brandnew alienware computer for the price of that game

[mp5mg42]

Ok, nice that, but here is the big question, is vehicle damage realistic, like a FPS Theatre Of War or Combat mission? (not like ARMA & Op. Flashpoint). Is A.I. advanced?

Can a home pc run perfectly this?

[Xirdla]

mp5mg42 sigh... Operation Flashpoint is civilian version of VBS1 and Arma is civ version of VBS2 same engine same company. Therfore same vehicle damage modeling. And since military buys VBS not ToW or Combat must think VBS1&2(OFP,Arma) is better and VBS2 cost is something like 1800$ get 40$ Arma instead(or Arma2 when it comes out). Keep in mind VBS2 will come only as a tool set, no campaign no missions you have to make them your self with the editor.

[exitos07]

not true any more . i ordered it just last week. (VBS2)

[kei41202]

At wt price, dude?

[SCORCH543]

It is really cheap now 549$ if im not mistaken I'm purchasing it in a few weeks also extremely polite staff and they respond to emails in no more than 3 days if not hours..

[Vultar666]

I hope that ArmA2 wont miss those great features.

[2muchforem]

what's used to play this?

[RicStudios]

how much does this cost and is it multiplayer?

[Makos93]

Why BIS didn't added those features (imprved physics/graphic engine (destroying walls), UAV, tank controls and many more...) to ArmA 1?

[Dslyecxi]

Most of this content was created long after ArmA1 launched. It's not really reasonable to expect that any of this would be transferred over to ArmA1.

[vasek94CZ]

This things have Arma 2

[Debilnebil]

CZECH GAME?

[vasek94CZ]

Yeah ;)

[jmekiwi]

I played this in the New Zealand Army, Its intense, I found especially with incoming fire I flinched. The Set up in our Virtual Training Centre is Perfect.

[Merkavarules]

Did you buy this game?I hear its around 1.5k dollars, is that true?

[4IN14094]

all i could hope is that something could make its way into ARMA2(which is less likely)

[NewElita6]

make for arma effects when shoting in house its not full blow up a just like battlefield bad company xD

[MrORLY]

Thats whats its going to be like in ArmA 2

[Dslyecxi]

This is a bad assumption to make.

[timthom148]

The army doesn't just give it out! desertstorm

[desertstorm1989]

No shit or I would have been playing for about a year now

[chrisvcb]

It's even more awesome when you see stuff that you made in there :D

[desertstorm1989]

so what did u create?

[chrisvcb]

The Chally 2, and the SA80s/LSWs/UGLs. I also did work on the Vector (not shown).

[desertstorm1989]

so did they give u a copy of the game for free? Shit I wish the army would give us a fucking copy

[ArmedAndDangerous]

My favorite parts are those showing the British army's challenger 2 tanks, lanrover's and infantry. I can only dream of any of this making it into Arma.

[SlAyErPaTh117]

Very nice video. What is the name of the beginning song in the video? It sounds so majestic.

[Dslyecxi]

I'm not sure - it's a track by the developers (BIA). There wasn't a title on the version I had.

[deviletk]

hope FLIR comes into ArmA2, made by BIS or the community. Becoming very interested in VBS2 because of all th features. Videos like this makes me want it even more :) nice one mate.

[mrjfin]

Yeah I admire ur skill and talent to put piece together one masterpiece again.

[unabomber06]

thats amazing

[mattrstudios]

Great video! man :)

[DeathsOneDesign]

This video is amazing, Dyslecxi. Perfect choice of music, excellent editing, I love your vids Dsly, they're always a great expierience

[resonatorproductions]

Yeah it looks awesome. There seems to be alot a exclusive neat little features in VBS2 (thermal view,craters, laser pointers, building destruction etc) that people are struggling/wanting to simulate in Arma. I wonder why these things were not included/considered as standard in Arma? The game engines dont seem to be vastly different on appearance. The price tag certainly doesnt justify VBS2 to the mil sim gamer. One can only hope these things are built into Arma 2.

Nice vid by the way.

[Dslyecxi]

resonator: VBS2 has been in constant development since *after* ArmA shipped. These are funded developments, millions of dollars worth of contracts, by huge organizations like the USMC, UK MoD, etc. Comparing what VBS2 has, over a year and a half after ArmA's launch, to ArmA itself, is unfair and inaccurate. I would not expect anything from VBS2 to necessarily show up in ArmA2 by default, but surely some features will carry over. Also, A2 will likely have features that VBS2 will lack.

[SibirianHusky]

only i wish !!!! VBS2 <3

[zhijn]

Awesome as always!.

[olibf2lover]

very nice video mate, well done, and edited, nice one

blacKKnight63

(=

[sparks444]

Arma with some mods is better. And cheaper:p

[Dslyecxi]

It's not that ArmA is "better", it's that it's a much more sane purchase for a civilian user. VBS2 has loads of great features - for the gamer, though, the $1500 price on those features is not worth it. However, if it was a $30 product, that would be a whole different story. It isn't, though,.

[oyvinator]

its expensive..

i would consider it if it was around 300$.. but not much more than that..

it looked like a crater was formed when the missle in the end went off..

never seen that type of thing in vsb2 before..

[olibf2lover]

thank you Dslyecxi you have found the answer to the people who always say that VBS2 is a mod to arma

[DocDaneeka9]

Oh god this is awesome!
