Now we covered Modern Warfare 2 at the begining of the week, let’s stay a little in virtual tactic armed fights with this new info concerning ArmA 2’s release (that fans also wrongly call Armed Assault 2). Still developed by Bohemia Interactive Studio, the FPS-like military simulation continues to emphasize on realism. Indeed, creators of Operation Flashpoint and ArmA the first never took it the easy way. ArmA 2 follows just the same spirit as it turns out to be an even more precise and acute fight simulation.
In ArmA 2’s scenario, you will be put in the shoes of an American grunt from the Razor team at war with Russians in a fake East Europe country. Though the visuals are already very nice, you might be even more impressed by the sound effects, which will lead you straight into the battlefield. In addition to ground fights and parachuting, be ready to take the helm from various transport means, including air ones. The very discrete interface, as well as simplified control and a proper artificial intelligence, show the editor’s will to open it to as many as possible. Well it would be a real waste not to enjoy it!
