Sorta Kinda. OA is more along the lines of free roaming but there is no role playing element to the sim. But there are mods that can definitely turn it into a full blown free roam sandbox even rpg type game. Best place to look around is the Armaholic modding community.
@HesterDW Yeah but its mostly just forests hills and plains.. kind of realistic but not as fun.. id rather walk through half the size of a mildly urbanized area than 80 miles of dense forest with the occasional animal stumbling into the path
@TheDiego1255 Im sure it is.. I just have the Arma 2 Free maps tho now that i think about it. No realy point in paying for Arma 2 when you could just buy a better game of same idea, like Battlefield 3 or what not. It makes for a great game though and the atmosphere of it all is great. Not just random meat grinding like some games, *cough* Call of Duty *cough*
@PhenomenalHeadShot Yeah kinda, but I do disagree. I used to play free but then I got combined ops, joined a squad and it's amazing. Totally different game mate.
I WANT THIS GAME, THIS GAME IS AWESOME!!! GIMME GIMME GIMME! NICE VIDEO DUDE AWESOME GRAPHICS AAAHHHHH, no but seriously. this game is fucking amazing, the grpahics are AMAZING, no game will in atleast 10 years beat this.
have to say this is the best mil sim game made to date its not about killing people and going from one obvective to another on a piss easy path way its about maing the game your own using team work and tactics and you know the rest THANK YOU BOHEMIA : )
even though i got 2x3 Ghz and a 8600GT with 1024 mb (not high end i know) i can only play it on lowest grpahic and then the view alays is hangig after the mouse so if i push the mouse fast to the left it almost takes a second for the view to turn.
@Kenny0339 Of course the M15x can run it, that laptop is one of the best gaming laptops on the market, you will probably get 60-70fps on the highest settings which is plenty smooth, but remember battery life will suck just keep it plugged in. Hell, I don't even think your eye can tell much of a difference after 65fps or maybe even less.
@Kenny0339 Lol gaming laptops. My two 5850s and 3.80 GHZ Core i7-920 would struggle with this game maxed out. Gaming laptops in general are fail. Either they overheat or the battery dies in an hour. Doesn't matter who it came from.
The good news is you can max out BC2 with it, though.
@MiroMiroSune an I7 quadcore 1.86ghz (3.20ghz turbo mode) with DDR3 ATI Radeon video card can't run this? Everyone but you has told me that it can. Any other reason besides overheating or dead batteries? Can it run or can't it. I don't mind if it's not at maximum settings, I just want to know if it can run it so I can shell my money out on it or get a cheaper laptop and spend the rest on a gaming rig. If you're just trolling, find something else to do.
@Kenny0339 The game doesn't support Hyper-Threading so good luck with that, and which ATI Radeon videocard? Depends on the card. It may have a 'okay' graphics card, but that still leaves your processor...
Running a game like this on a laptop is an absolutely terrible idea if you plan on using a trackpad and that tiny keyboard.
@MiroMiroSune I can attach a mouse and a better keyboard. What do you mean Hyper-threading? My graphics card is going to be an 1GB DDR3 ATI RAdeon Mobility HD 5730? a processor on 3.20GHZ can't run this?
@MiroMiroSune You have a point, but, it doesn't mean it's unplayable. I was reading that it has no problems with it, except that the texture pop ins and frame rate dips are a bit more often. But I want to know if it renders it unplayable or if it's extremely often. Thank you for your interest :)
@Kenny0339 Yeah, I'm sorry if I seemed a bit antagonistic. It won't run well on a gaming laptop though. You'll have to disable Turbo Mode which takes away performance in other application. The game isn't as graphically intensive on the 4870 and up cards as it is on everything else--mainly the processor and the hard drive. It takes a bunch of SSDs in a raid 0 array to run the game without pop-in and pop out and 1.86 GHz is simply not enough.
@MiroMiroSune That is a very valid point and that was actually my main concern, the processor. It is the most expensive part of the computer. I just got into PC gaming and I don't know a whole lot, is that something that could be fixed by a patch or something? or is it something that will stay flawed?
@Kenny0339 You can run it absolutely fine with that PC, forget about hyperthreading, its not relevant when you have a powerful PC like yours. It will run any game you buy for the next 2 or 3 years no doubt.
i dont like videos with music, but this was amazing!!! the song was awesome. can you do another 1 cept in a heli? not many of those videos around, espicially not in HD
it is slow because its a JUMP JET.they are designed to hover and act almost like a helicopter,but can go up to about almost Mach 1 (785MPH)the Harrier GR7,as like the one in this video is the most common jump jet.
you dummas. did you ever fly a jet? it's alway look like that. if you fly low, near tyo ground, than everythibng is moving very fast, but higher you flight, everything move slower.
ty for this amazing video i cannot wait to build my pc and get a clan going for this game current play project reality bf2 mod but this game looks amazing with vop sound mod is a must
im using a dual core 2.8 ghz, 4gb of ram and a ge force 9800 gt. when im flying i use 4k distance and when im on the ground i use 1500. it seems to work perfectly for me even though i have a somewhat crappy computer
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
its because this game has a fucking retarded engine cuz of fucking codemaster fucking fat nerds game creators fat fuckers, cant create a proper engine, fuck them all, u will never be able to run this game above 30 fps even if u had a godlike pc
its not even code masters, code masters made operation flashpoint and it has 1 of the most advanced engines in a game so far, so all systems can play wit h no lag
its not really highest settings unless u got 10km distance set... most people cant get higher than 6km with a heavily clocked core i7 and a gtx 28x or ati 4890
ArmA II looks amazing, remember when BF2 first came out. How great it looked, now it's not even that impressive. I'm pretty sure in 4-5 years time when another game like ArmA II or BF2 comes out we'll be saying the same thing about ArmA II.
Also, gotta know. Whats the song? I really like it.
No? Did I implied that? The game itself wasn't really optimized at the time when I played it as in the game itself, not how my computer runs it. I prefer Operation FlashPoint over this. The gameplay itself is more of a simulator in which I'm fine with.
you don't necessary need TrackIR 5 for that. It's all about a Bohemia's choice. Look at my profile the video campaign for free head tracking. nice vid.
i think its really good. Its more of a simulator, so expect realistic bullet trajectories etc. Plus you can pretty much build your own missions from scratch. On a mid-high end gaming PC this will look amazing for you
