I would like to see what the ground in ArmA II looks like from 20k up in the air. Somebody who have the game, plz take a screenshot from that altitude and let's compare it with the high altitude screens we've seen of CoD.

don't know if anyone has seen this, so in case you've missed it... stumbled upon it today so I thought I'd share:

It's old.

And it's already reposted in another thread.

Nice video, I think I saw it before on some Russian site.

However, no wonder the game is called Cliffs of Dover; the game is a slide-show over land! I know WoP has a postage-stamp map, but I can play the WoP demo at full settings on my ageing core-2 duo (2.00ghz) and ATI 4650 without any fps loss, and similarly I can fly the 352nd CCM in Il-2 (everything set to max) with tons of objects and trees on the map, and no noitceable FPS drop like that.
I understand CoD has a lot more in it than either of those sims, but if the game runs like that on most systems, I can see many people shelving it for a year until it's properly playable. I hope I'm wrong.

I have to buy myself a new machine to be able to play this, which won't be within a year from now... unfortunately. It's just like when I started playing Il2 in 2004, three yrs after release, but that's life -sigh-. ;)

@Hecke: I didn't know the vid; it's old you say... so be it

In this case it's the video that stutters, not the game. The original video is way more fluid: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7kVocagsoUY

Are the roundels generic? A photo of the Sunderland KG-F has no yellow outer ring.

CoD is an unfortunate acronym as CoD is synonymous "Call of Duty"

Yes but BOB is even worse because there is the Battle of Britain games and it's a simulation about 2WW :grin:
