Well..

Been playing IF44 this weekend.. And here is what I have found out

I forgot that ARMA does not model the interior (cockpit if you will) of the tanks.. Which kind of bummed me out. But still alot o fun playing on the tank servers.. Just hard to find one this weekend.. Hopfully that will change with time

As for the planes.. Yikes! I think I can count on one hand how many times I have flown a plane in ARMAI and ARMAII.. And it only took me a few seconds to remember why after flying a P39 and Fw190 in IF44.. Totaly Arcade as a flight sim!

The FPS aspects of IF44 (ARAMII) is the real redeaming quality of this game! Which will become more aparent as more stable servers start showing up over the next few weeks.

Are the maps any bigger than the ArmA II postage stamp sized ones?

Still debating getting this.

I do like tanks.

They are about the same size..

The big difference that I can see if the ARMAII maps mark the edge of the maps with water.. As in a island.. Where as it appears the IF44 extend the land out beyond the useable area kind of like IL2 did/does with that extention being this sort of blan uselss land with no real details to it

I mean it is fun!

ARMA stuff has allways been a realistic first person shoot first and formost.. that 'allowed' you to drive dumbed down vehicals and dumbed down airplanes and hellos

So if your expecting a realistic WWII tank and flight sim.. Don't get this!!

But if you can accepted some dumb down aspects to 'GET IT ALL' in one package than I think you will like this game!

In that is all we got to choose from.. At least until CoD sequals include the same.. and hopfully at a little less dumbed down level

Played ArmA for years. I understand about the poor vehicle modeling.
