I do like the way that equipment is set up in A3, and the physics engine is lovely...but the time period leaves me cold, whilst I'll admit the drones are a lot of fun (especially when you realise that you can actually kill someone by kamikazing into their head with one :haha:) the 'tanks' and other vehicles...they're not that brilliant. Fantastically modelled, but...whilst I know what an M1A2 Abrams is, what it looks like, what it should be able to do, I know nothing about whatever armoured vehicle myself and Raptor took for a spin in our last game of A3 was, except for the fact that the future must have very expensive ammunition because it had less rounds than the average RARDEN magazine. :O:
However, the beautiful part of Arma has always been the user base, so I'm waiting and hoping that people will make beautiful real world vehicles to use, there's already some lovely aircraft for A3, and A1 and A2 vehicles have been ported over to A3, but really it's a stop-gap solution.
I mean, I guess in time I could get used to it, but until then it makes battlefield ID a bit difficult, in A2 it was a case of "T-72 front", in A3 it's "Erm, armoured thing, front." :haha:
Exactly, thats the part I don't like, I am not really familiar with the units. I mean the Comanche and the Ghosthawk yeah, as well as the littlebird thats in there but besides that.. not really, I am a bit lost on units. I liked tht about Arma 2, I knew the units, and it was nice.
Basically, right now I think of A3 as a canvas for future real world and Cold War mods to be used on. :yep:
