Rating: - Great game
This game is very underrated. Very realistic, even better with a few mods. Good graphics if you can run it with everything turned up, but it still looks decent even with low settings. And with a built in editor, and Online play the possibilities are endless. Just go on youtube and look it up. Lots of videos that show what its all about. Or just download the demo and try it.
Rating: - Sooo Disappointed.
Sadly enough, I didn't like the demo and originally decided not to get the game. The in vehicle graphics leave a lot to be desired. I have maxed out the graphics and all other settings and it is easier to tolerate. Based upon all the hype I heard, against my previous judgment, I purchased it at a highly discounted price THANK GOD. I listened to all the fluff from friends who told e if I loved Operation Flash Point, which I did, that the full version of the game is much better. The movement of the troops is quite bothersome and does not resemble actual movement unless you are talking about a bowel movement (at least when they are walking crouched). The pasted facial expressions are so in line with the predecessor. I had a lot of high hopes for this game since I loved the previous releases but I can't really see much improvement over the previous except controls are more user friendly when it comes to joystick support. It strikes me as a prettier remake of the first with a different story line. Even though I loved the first and I like the promise of new equipment, the flashback factor made me decide not to play it any further. For someone new to the Genre this may keep them satiated but to a seasoned FPS player, there are better titles out. The Battlefield Series has more realistic movement as does Call of Duty 4. I chose to go back to that realm in lieu of continuing to try to like this title.
Rating: - Great Game
I purchased this game because I enjoyed Operation Flashpoint thouroughly. This game did not disappoint. From the training missions to the campaigns, This game maintained my interest. It is not just a shoot-em-up. Rather, Arma requires strategy and patience as well as a steady aim. This, I feel, is the game's true appeal. While it is not flashy like a Halo3, it is more engaging and dynamic. True, there were some tedious parts of the game, but the missions, weapons, vehicles, and characters were all beautifully rendered and realistic.
Arma did require some tweaking on my part in order to minimize buggy graphics--Yes, it is a resource hog. I use Windows XP. The reported bugs have not diminished my enjoyment of Arma. I have not played Arma online, though, because I played it while on deployment, but I look forward to doing so soon.
I will get tons of play with Arma, thanks to the mission editor. I would purchase this game again and again. Four stars for the dazzling, yet heavy Arma.
Rating: - Not as fun as Flashpoint
I was a big fan of Operation Flashpoint. I eagerly awaited ARMA, I even upgraded my computer months ahead of schedule in anticipation of ARMA. Only to find out all the Vista bugs that plagued this game. I downloaded patches, read troubleshooting pages, and entered in maxmem 512 code. But it is still buggy,
When it does work it doesn't work well, Single player the feels more like Call of Duty 3 due to the limitations in this game, there is no room for creativity.
Relief does not seem likely as Atari doesn't recognize the Vista issues. BI Studio I think has moved on to ARMA II.
Rating: - have no idea, wont even start
absolute junk, installed and had to download a 322mb patch from the start. Looks like they put this POS on the market way before testing was complete. Now that I have the upgraded version, I can not get past the load, always crashes. I have tried starting from the auto run, and says the disc is not in the drive, even though it just auto ran, lol. I have tried through the start menu, and every time, just crash. I have a dell XPS pent D, 3 ghz, 3 gigs of 667 ram, dual DVD drives, XFI sound card, and geforce pci-e 7900 GS. Running XP PRO.My system is more than capable of running this game, just crappy software design, complete waste of time and money, they should be ashamed of themselves putting out such a terrible product, just lost my business.
