Well,there is no reason for me to buy the game until the campaign is released.

SITH3895d ago

There is plenty of reason to buy the game before the campaign is released. The editor alone provides that reason. I have played over 100 hours alone with user generated content on steam workshop that rivals some past arma and operation flashpoint campaigns. The multiplayer is functional, and the steam client is functional to allow you to choose what user generated content you want and install it for you.

Then the editor itself. Make your own campaign. Literally!
Also there is the single play missions which about 6 are currently available and more will be released at game launch.

Feralkitsune3895d ago

ARMA isn't a single player kind of game anyways. Basing your purchase on that is not a good reason to ever buy it. It's all about either playing user made missions, or paying with a group. Hell, you could even play game modes like Wasteland.

i hope they dont make a shift in their scenario and make Greece an enemy country (they will be for laughs )...they must understand that Greece is not like other european countries with no enemies around ...going and taking pictures of weapon systems and army bases without permission isnt happening anywhere in the world

aliengmr3895d ago

Except they weren't doing that. They were on vacation.

breakpad3895d ago

NO ,they were doing exactly THAT ...i m from GReece and i have seen photos of what they were shooting (detailed and countless photos of our army bases from every angle possible) ...if they were in other country like Turkey ,Germany ,Israel or AMerica they would have hanged them by their testicles

aliengmr3894d ago

Actually it was 7 photos your government took issue with.

They were not scouting for the game as the art was already done.

They were on vacation. They were NOT detailing your military bases, they had no reason to.

i hope the company sues for damages caused by the false imprisonment of its employees. and greese is one country i will never step foot in along with the whole middle east.

GenericNameHere3895d ago

I don't read news and political debates and whatnot. How is Greece these days? They still doing bad economically?

KazHiraiFTW3895d ago (Edited 3895d ago )

Greece is a shithole. Athens is one of the filthiest cities on earth.

breakpad3895d ago

..stop playing lot of videogames and educate yourself a little bit... Greece is not Middle east

sovietsoldier3895d ago

hurr durr, i know that. i also know your out of bubbles for being a bubble head.

Bohemia’s war against Arma 3’s misinformation misuse

From GI.biz: "Back in October, a video clip started doing the rounds on social media, showing what appeared to be the Ukrainian artillery attacking Russian tanks. The footage was shared thousands of times across social media platforms.

There was just one small problem; the footage in question was not real.

It was, in fact, a video of gameplay from Arma 3, a military simulation title made by Czech studio Bohemia Interactive.

This is far from the first time the game has been used to fake footage of warzones. In the past, Arma 3 has been used to spoof videos of conflicts in Afghanistan and Syria, as well as military action between Israel and Palestine. It’s even been used to fake videos of a fictional war between India and Pakistan. This isn’t even the first time that footage of the Ukrainian war has actually turned out to be Arma 3 footage."

When these videos make their way into mainstream news it just shows me how incompetent these networks are. You could blame YouTubers, click bait titles, you could try to do something about it as the dev, but these are huge news networks with a lot of money poured into em and hundreds of employees. Perhaps if they weren't so set on being first they'd ensure that they aren't putting out fake footage as often as they do.
