Dayz is pretty fucking awesome but it's still sort of a shame that ARMA has gotten popular just because of it.

Even worse is all the people I've seen complaining that they paid for ARMA CA Exclusively for it which is ignoring all the other awesome shit you can do in ARMA.

If you want a more realistic military shooter, you can also try America's Army. Not only is free, but also looks pretty good and it tries to be a realistic experience.

It's the only Multiplayer shooter i've ever seen where you can get to a situation where 4 players are smushed together behind a destroyed van for 10-15 minutes because the enemy team found out your location from higher ground and is raining fire on you, and if you get shot on the arm or leg... it matter, anywhere else could be a insta kill easy as that. .

And on other E3 News...

Here is a Blubr about the elder Scrolls Online

Steve Butts: Despite the MMO nature of the game, your own personal story missions will be entirely instanced. You can share the rest of the game with other players, but when it comes time to advance the story of reclaiming your soul from the Daedric prince who stole it, you're all on your own. This should allow Bethesda to tell a much more personally relevant story. The rest of the time, you'll be involved in group instances, public quests, and raids. To combat kill stealing and spawn camping, everyone who participates in a given encounter is rewarded for it, so even if you're late to the party, so to speak, you can still get credit for killing mobs and looting quest items.

So, apparently TES Online is basically those "battle for the castle" PVP Maps from Ragnarok with a Single Player campaign tacked onto it.

I'm not going to say that this is not what i wanted... cause i don't know what i would want from an actual "Online" TES... but... not quite that.

Sounds like what Guild Wars 2 is doing, only slightly worse.

[Magus]

Complaints about war video games that are not realistic are stupid when they ignore the vast plethora of war movies which are also not realistic.

I mean this from the perspective of someone who is all like "DISRESPECTFUL TO OUR TROOPS" is stupid, and not from a perspective that would like a more challenging war game where you get killed more easily, of course.

[Bells]

i THINK the entire point of the Gamespot reporter was with the producers using "respect for the troops" as a selling bulletpoint on a war game.


Cause... games need to be fun, and any sort of "War is hell"story gets set with the background narrative and storytelling of a game, which it's hardly a Philosophical piece...

But when you put as a selling point that your game "respect the real troops"... i can see it gets somewhat easy to distort or misinterpret that in a number of ways.
