Take a look at some of the vids on YouTube. The dev knows of ArmA II's issues and looks to improve with this release. Whether they succeed or not is anyone's guess, but I wouldn't completely write them off if you have interest in the series.

they still patch ArmA II weekly, and it's still broken. They have good intentions but their games are so ambitious, and of course they will say that the next game was better. I don't belive PR when it comes to this kind of thing. Bethesda said they had an all new engine and that the PS3 version was getting a lot of attention before release, and then it turns out that the engine is basically the same and the PS3 version is broken. PR will say anything to sell the game.

Of course they will, but that's why I say if you have any interest, don't just write 'em off. Heavy Rain had bugs (yep, even after patches) and was quite ambitious, but it will not stop me from grabbing 3EYOND.

Figured we had more ArmA fans here.

Have you ever played an ArmA BTW? I don't mind bugs if the game is great but ArmA isn't really my kind  of game, maybe if the singleplayer campaigns were actualy fun I would be interested. But a mil sim with a multiplayer focus that level of jank is enough for me to skip it. Now if the gameplay and setting was as good as S.T.A.L.K.E.R then I would be interested.

I'm not surprised there aren't any ArmA fans here, it's a niche hardcore military sim repackaged as a game. The people that do have it likely just got it for DayZ.
