Armed Assault Video

An amazing video of ArmA can be downloaded here:

There is a version on Google Video but it is much lower quality:

I really like the night scenes, especially the zodiac boats. Watch the last three seconds for the dead paratrooper shot.

Well, the game is out in the Czech Republic and will be out in Germany at the end of the month. A UK version won't be out until 2/2007 and there are no US distributors yet. So, I'll probably order a German version since all the voices/cut-scenes are in English.

If you never heard of ArmA, it's is from the makers of Operation Flashpoint (OFP).

Word on the street is that a simple file modification will bring out the english.

But, as I keep telling folks: unless you are German, Czech or Slovak, or you plan on building missions or mods, you're probably better off waiting for the "main release":

1. with the OFP release, major functionality was added after the initial release. V. 1.0 (europe) lacked many features that v. 1.20 added; and v. 1.46 (final before resistance) was quite an improvement over that.

2. people will be ironing missions and mods.
3. You really don't want to play with a bunch of Germans, do you?

then again, Morphicon is distributing to Austria and Switzerland, so I'll probably have to get that.

What would be interesting is a combo...  Aces high in the air and a ww2 version of armed assault on the ground.  Makes you kinda wish two companies could work together and joint release a dominating product.

Well, there are attempts at that. Of course, they don't exactly support the fancy predictive logic of AH.
