Good stuff! Love the "move body" action, as well as the different troop transport truck. Thanks for sharing!

It has been said already, but it bears repeating.

ArmA is VBS2 for civilians, if you want to look at it that way. There is absolutely nothing in VBS2 that justifies the $1500 price tag for civvies. When you combine ArmA with any of the current mods out (not to mention forthcoming stuff like ACE), you get an experience that is better in many ways for a tiny fraction of the price. VBS2 has plenty of things that are great for military customers, but to think that VBS2 is somehow better for civilian purposes is silly.

If you like what you see in those screens or videos, buy ArmA. You won't be able to tell the difference.

I have plenty of videos up showing ArmA if you're interested:

why do you think I do this, lol... to cause trouble.


Like I said before, I agree with D 100%, VBS2 is not worth it for us gamers, get Armed Assault instead... that said, I sure do like to play with some of the extras VBS2 brings...and posting screens and videos is my "personal justification" for buying VBS2...

I do really love the real time editor, the "commander" mode where one person is like a combat coordinator (a dungeon master), and the AAR tool... so NO it is not worth buying, yes I'm glad I did.

I can understand why you do it, but I think it's a missed opportunity when you post VBS2 stuff in a forum where people may not be aware of ArmA to begin with. If you post VBS2 content and they say "Oh hey, you can buy the civilian version of this for $30, it's called ArmA!", that's great. If you just post VBS2 and people see that and think "Wow, that's cool, too bad I can't afford it!", on the other hand, that's a problem.

edit:
I just looked at the vid posted above - not sure who made it, but it's a rip off of the official videos I've done for BIA. You can find those, at their best quality, here:

If you disagree with the logic, say so. I'd be interested to hear what your thoughts are. No need to resort to that.
