Quick Look: ArmA II

In addition to being truly frightened by ArmA2, I now know that there isn't enough "Yakkity Sax" in all these Quick Looks...more "Yakkity Sax", please!

yeah, game is not for me

For everyone saying that this game looks boring or whatever, it should be fairly obvious that this is a game for a nice market. But for that market it is amazing.

Am I the only guy who thinks ArmA II is a very good game and isn't too complicated? Just finish the training and it'll all make sense. I found the tutorial to be very comprehensive.

Great ending

Hey this could be interesting, flashpoint was hectic back in the day!

I've read that tanks and such have HP and that if you shoot long enough even small arms fire will take down a tank. Unrealistic and bad. May be moddable though. Silent Hunter 4 had a HP based damage system, but there are mods that changed it to physics based so that ships sink based on physics not when their HP is depleted.

Dude what's up with their voices? Did they buy new mics or something?

This game is definitely not for me.

Also, I really laughed at "We ended up where we were, didn't we?"

My friend tried just running this game and his computer froze out, its awsome though.

Wow, you guys REALLY SUCK (no offense).  This game is not THAT hard.  I am 30% (estimate) through the game and only died a few times.

You can play the entire game 3rd person , vehicles, even the characters.  The 3rd person looks and plays really good, kind of like Socom or something.  I prefer 3rd person.

I am kind of sad at this quick look because I know it will drive ppl away from the game and it is a really awesome game.

Game looks dreadfully painful to play, do love the speed up option & we definitely need that in other games especially if there's the chase music from Benny Hill.

No more night missions. Please.

Good QL otherwise--didn't make me want to play the game (luckily I already wanted to, lol), but the commentary was entertaining.

haha best quick look ever.

ATTACK that MAN!

looks JUST like a dream... I... Had.No seriously thus looks to hard and complicated and sorta weird. Not first on my list.

YOU.ARE.GETTING.KNOCKED.THE.HECK.DOWN

It feels like every time Dave was about to articulate an interesting point, Jeff interrupted by yelling something.

wow...u really can play games!

That is just too complex for me.

You act like we could actually hear the game in these quick looks. FYI we can't. Turn up the game volume in the mix.

i thought the voice acting was a joke when i played the demo -__-

it might be the worst voice acting ive ever heard from what i remember

Jeff is so annoying in this one :|

"That seems like the dynamic between his and Jeff's personality. Jeff seems more extroverted and Dave more introverted. As an introvert myself, I get spoken over so goddamn often I just wanna smash faces. Hence my preference for type instead of speech. "

" Hey guys, the framerate issues you see are not with ArmA II, but with our capture setup.  ArmA II was running pretty smoothly while we were recording.  We will have this issue fixed by the next time we do PC capture so this doesn't happen again. "

I actually really dig Arma 2, I have no prior experience with flashpoint, arma 1, etc.

But I love the realism and the ballistics models. Fantastic game.

like them duders said before, this type of game is probably played by people that make flight sim cabinets.  i

Did we get him? ARGH!

was the audio pretty over driven to anyone else?

if my comp could run maxed

i would get this

Awesome Quick Look!

You're a grey warden, huh?  Why?  Yes, I get that's an ad

AWW!NO PS3!

It's like a ransom note yelling at you haha.

Such a funny quick look

I can't believe they released the game with that dialogue. Kinda hard to be realistic when you're fighting a war alongside Microsoft Sam.

TARGET 199905 TO OUR FRONT.

Arma is a really great war sim, much more realistic than the Call of Duty or Battlefield games out there. It´s super hardcore, but also very rewarding, when you get the hang of it.

I realy wanted to love Arma II. I liked the concept but I just couldn't deal with it. I just kept feeling like I was playing it wrong.

I'll go back to sinking subs in Silent Hunter 3 and doing the trig to kill them.

DayZ is awesome!

Is it just me or is the frame rate absolute trash

I think this was just a shitty game.
