Arma 3 on nextgen consoles please

decrypt4278d ago

Why would want another perfectly good franchise to turn COD?

Check out the range of controls on Arma games, then let us know how all of that would fit on a lolpad?

Gazondaily4278d ago

Never played ARMA. Might have to give it a go since Battlefield turned cod

Wizziokid4278d ago

why would it turn to COD if it went on console??? because it's utilising the keyboard and mouse set-up I'm sure it could be converted to controller set-up.

@Wizziokid

Please check the game out before making comments about fitting it onto a controller.

I bet you have no idea about the game and probably never have seen it running before passing such comments.

The game would require serious steamlining to make it fit on a controller, by which point it would become a BF or COD game.

Saryk4278d ago

There is no way that would happen. Only if the console had mouse and keyboard would this happen.

Trunkz4278d ago

@Wizziokid

Theres so many keys to use on the keyboard to issue commands and orders so how earth do you expect to do all these commands and everything on the console? You can't!

"why would it turn to COD if it went on console???"

....Operation Flashpoint : Dragon Rising and Red River, anyone?

ATi_Elite4278d ago (Edited 4278d ago )

Call of Duty went to consoles and it turned into CRAP luckily PC Gamers still had Battlefield.

Battlefield 3 goes to consoles and it turned into CRAP luckily PC Gamers still have Arma.

If Arma 3 goes to consoles it will turn into CRAP just like Operation Flashpoint turned into CRAP and then PC Gamers will have only Planetside 2.

When one PC Game becomes console CRAP luckily another game steps up and take it's place.

*I DO NOT see Arma 3 coming to next Gen consoles. Bohemia Interactive is a very small studio that just focuses on the PC, and trying to break gamers PC's with their demanding titles.*

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.
