What about a demo??

[andersgrim]

I thought Armed Assault was supposed to be some sort of demonstration of the engine improvements for OFP2. So where's the point in the demo's demo?

And as it's release is scheduled Q4 2005, and we're soon to enter Q3, I'd rather want a tip top game than a rushed demo. Atleast that's my point of view.

Armed Assault will have tuned OFP1 engine, while OFP 2 will have new OFP2 engine and not tuned OFP1 engine

I am sure that OFP2 will use the poseidon engine too. I guess the AA engine will be something between the OFP and OFP2 versions of the poseidon engine. They wont make a completely new engine for OFP2.

This doesn't mean that OFP2 will be just like OFP with the engine limitations, it will be an evolved version. You can compair it with the engine used in Unreal which was released 1998 I think and the engine used in UT2004 which are basicly the same but really evolved.

What I'm wonderin is if VBS stuff will be portable to AA,not really fair that they can use our stuff but we can't use theirs,or atleast thats what I heard,somethin about a file type or...thing..I dunno.

xnodunitx your post has nothing to do with this thread and in fact has no place on any forum here, there are VBS forums for discussing VBS.

Sorry for not keeping to the topic, but isn't that beacause OFP can't handle as detailed models as VBS?

Well anyways back on topic,
Yes, I also think a demo should be released, with maybe new Everon, and two, three SP missions, or something...

I will not say it anymore, stop discussing VBS, these are not VBS forums.

ok but anyone from BIS can tell us is there any demo will be released or no??

Operation Flashpoint had a demo, Operation Flashpoint: Resistance had a demo, so it's not outside the realm of possibility that ArmA may have a demo, but it's not as simple as saying "yes it will" or "no it won't", time and circumstance are only two factors which contribute to such a thing happening (or not)

Well that's good news. I'd love to see a demo, these screenshots and shakey cam videos just don't do any good. Infact it's a bit dissapointing.

Why hasnt BIS released any official videos yet? I never seem them do much of this at all, but when you look at other games they post videos of it like crazy.
