Yet another game I am happy to wait a few months for so it's fixed and cheaper. I was the most die-hard day-one game purchaser in the world for years but these companies have finally taught me to wait and give them less.

Never had a chance to play this, what was the general consensus around here?

Funny how everyone complains about the texture streaming, when I've seen soooooo many other Unreal engine games that suffer from the same issue, even on PC. Talk about selective criticism.

Actually, I never noticed pop-in textures in any Unreal engines all that much; maybe because it wasn't as blatant as it is in RAGE.

And frankly, while the time may have passed now, I used to expect better out of id.

How about you guys 1) fix the game first and 2) release the tools so people make their own DLC; before you guy start thinking about making/selling your own DLC to us.

Will Windows 7 be the new XP

Yes. At least with me unless Win8 makes some drastic UI decisions that I know it wont.

I think the tough time Arma has in general is that you practically need to be ex-military to play it with others. At least, the videos I've seen on youtube indicate this, where everyone seems to know all the military lingo and procedures.

I've been wanting to try some vanilla Arma II, but frankly I find that point above intimidating as hell, even with my great love for tac shooters.

It's great to see DX11 features becoming standard with games. It's just a shame that the game still looks like ass and the gameplay and presentation look terrible. How much longer is Ubisoft going to keep rehashing the same shit?

They should have two separate front ends for each, and the option to select which one upon a fresh installation of Windows 8, or some type of dual-boot option should you want to tinker with Metro.

Thoughts?

Classic Shell! Love it, and I believe it supports the 8 betas...

I agree. Not only that, Microsoft is giving the desktop second-class citizen treatment (no access to the latest Windows APIs, no free dev tools) and putting all its focus on Metro, where the end users can only get new applications through Microsoft's online store.

It goes even further, desktop apps are only allowed on the store in website link form. They are really shafting their established base IMO. I'm not a dev but the ones at our company are really upset with the direction they seem to be going in and the heavy handed way they're doing it. On a personal note I'm pretty open minded and have been running Windows 8 for months now but I can't make myself like Metro. The odd juxtaposition between interfaces is too jarring, sometimes its ok to have two distinct products because a tablet interface is pretty much at odds with a desktop UI in terms of presentation and design goals.

If this is the future of Windows then I'm very interested in alternatives.
