QUOTE(RicoADF @ Mar 2 2008, 02:39)  Weather AI is scripted or not has nothing to do with ragdoll, its done via the physics engine (which arma has a bad 1 for everything). If ArmA II had PhysX in it ragdolls would be part of the package  ArmA is using the old OFP engine, ArmA II is still using that old engine, all the same bugs, dumb AI etc. OFP 2 is using a new engine, which = less bugs (in theory  ). Point is OFP 2 should be a better product since its got a different engine running it.I assume that OFP2 will not be like our ol' loved OFP and ArmA (and ARMA II), it will be like the other games, where you have to follow a path to finish a mission, even if it will have a mission editor. Also, i told you: ragdoll is not only a physics engine improvement: if BIS should improve this feature in ARMA II, then they have to modify the entire engine, adding entry points for scripts to perform the actions in particular moments and so on... See, when in COD4 a soldier is killed, that's because he must be killed in that particular moment, to create the "movie-game" effect. This is pretty impossible in the real Virtuality 2 engine. What this engine wants to achieve is a war simulation more than fun... -------------------- Visit my blog about Poker at Blogspot.com

I think ARMA 2 is going to be pretty cool, but i really cant see myself playing that, cuz i dont have that kind a computer, and my current one is already new so, better luck next time  |

LoL, I live in Poland. I dont know how its in Estonia, but our countries are poor and I managed to buy new comp for 5000 zł (+- 2000$) and ArmA (except forests in North Sahrani) works great on high and normal settings

Hehe, well im not poor, my computer is actually very good, but the video card is a complete peice of trash(Nvidia 8500 GT 512MB), and to make it even MORE worse, its integrated, so i cant change it, unless i buy an entirely new machine. Otherwise i have AMD X64 X2 4400+ and 2GB ram. Other games run perfect on my comp(Call of Duty4 everything maxed, Crysis on normal), it's just ARMA that's killing me

The one thing that scares me, in all reality, is the fact that ArmA2 will just have 5-man teams instead of what we have now. Personally, I would like to keep it just the same as ArmA1. I sure hope this can be changed in mods, etc. Does this "displease" anyone else?

This ragdoll obsession is kinda off, why do you care so much how or why a person dies after being shot at? This is supposed to be a training simulator, you should not care about the gibbage factor just that the threat is no longer a threat!

Personally iam looking foreward to ArmA2 then OFP2..simply becouse it is BI that focus on the realism, while i see that Codemasters will be milking OFP2 for all its BF2 gloryness...(is that a word?)
i sense OFP2 will be nothing but a run and gun with vehicles while Codemasters claims is it the most 'realistic game' on the market...this may be true if you count awsome textures and a shizzle load of weapons as realistic, but i sense that ArmA 2 will have much more superior game play. You must remember ArmA2 was the bridge to raise funds for the Next Gen Game people, so iam going to support ArmA2, as shoddy as it may be, iam gonna get behind BI and not give in to the evil American Empire of Codemasters. LONG LIVE VICTOR TROSKA AND LONG LIVE THE FIA!

In my opinion, ArmA2 might just turn out to be a disaster. Considering how ArmA has turned out, I wouldn't be surprised if this new version crashes and burns. Like viper said, these guys are hung up on U.S. vs Russia. This gets to be very old. Playing this way on OFP was great, but it's time for a change. Gamers, I believe like change... We (gamers) don't care so much about fancy graphics. All we want is an appealling gameplay. Get off the cold war theme. If you want to impress us, think beyond 1980's.

USA vs. Russia is the best scenario. It allows the creators to produce the worlds best up to date military gear, and also has the advantage of being relativly balanced. If they did make a middle east scenario , say USA vs. Insurgents, it would be pretty boring in terms of content they could include for both sides.

True, but US and Russians have very similar military doctrine. I know that it's easy to get hung up on the small things, but when you look at "the big picture", there's almost a sort of symmetry between and American and Russian forces. M1 - T72 M1A1 - T80 M1A2 - T90 Havoc - Apache Hip - Blackhawk Which, while it is nice for balance, it really means the forces aren't that diverse...
