Like to see good weapons animation, pr feels a lot better when reloading , afraid to die in a corner, and the animations looks like i AM in this corner...it never ends..looks fantastic...then enemy comes...reload done...shot...

And the sounds from PR are the best weapons sounds ever, distance sounds , footsteps (wich are very silent in arma), all great.

PR has the best sounds and best Animation in any Shooter game. And i played all =

when your in a fire fight, looking at the re-load animations is the least of your worries.

so honestly, i think you should drop this. It's very hard and labour some to create NEW reload animations.

This isnt CoD where u have non stop action and no time for anything but runing and shooting, probably gonna be even slower than BF2;PR.

PR's weapon models, reload anims and sounds make it feel "realistic", and when u know the devs bothered to find and ask a dude/s that knows how exactly some gun is reloaded (g3 for example) u appreciate ALL the work done, the DEVs and the Mod much much more.

ARMA2 may have ballistics and weapon sway, but the pew pew itself feels "fake" and is much less thrilling and satisfying than PR for me.

Animations have always been an important part of PR's quality, I see no reason that should change on a new engine.

They are time consuming, but important. I would agree that they are not a primary concern, but they are part o what makes PR a great game to play.

YEAH! i remember PR 0.2...nothing was in...no crosshair and some other tweaks. And now...A 3.5 Gig Mod with a book of features i never dream of in .2

Just saw the Discovery's top 10 military helicopters. The interviews of the pilots flying these machines are amazing. Then went on and read complete specs of these helis and thier performace videos here Top 10 Military Helicopters. But most of these choppers are americans?!?!? some sort of bias?

Can we mimic this level in weapon animations?

lol i know they said they wont be using ay of the BF2:PR devs, but i'd say if they pulled Chuc over here for a few days that problem would be solved ;D

i know this isn't CoD, but when your not in a fire fight you wont need to reload. ArmA2 can be just as fast as PR. It's very easy to create a mission in a small area and have alot of action. However the larger missions tend to be more spread out so that vehicles can be used in a more realistic manor, hence why the game then slows down

yes but Arma2 has by DEFAULT more weapons than PR. Its a long list. so creating new animations for all of them would take a ridiculously long time.

trust me, when your in a fire fight you will find that this game is not "fake" and that the atmosphere is spectacular.

just imagine for a second, that there are 20 people playing a small mission. they get into a fire fight. you will have the suppressive fire of the LMG and the more accurate fire from the rifles. if you start bringing in artillery or CAS then it starts getting even more atmospheric.

I see that in PR almost everyday, like 12 inf dudes storming a village with 3 tanks supporting them and blasting every "house" that smells wrong
And I was talking about just shooting ur rifle, not big firefights.. The recoil, sound and the reloading that comes after the shooting is just so low quality, maybe after some arcady shooters it would seem fine but when BF2:PR has uber recoil system, super duper sounds and monster high quality reload animations, it feels 'fail' instead of fine.
