Why Make PR2?

Post by Quikli »

Sure Project Reality 2 would be great because it would be tailored ground up to suit Project Reality's style of play.

However, with so much effort being put into PR: Arma 2, Vietnam, and Bf2's PR, is there a SOLID reason why we there should be a complete, standalone PR2?

PR: Arma 2 will take PR to the "next generation", so what are your guy's thoughts about this? I kinda' want to buy Arma 2 just for PR, but at the same time, I feel like I should wait for PR2 though it probably wont be released til like 2014 or something.

I believe the engine being used for PR2 will allow the developers to do just about anything
The capabilities of the A2 and BF2 engines are limited in some respect

Everybody is buying BF2s and ARMA2s for PR.... hopefully there comes a time when we can buy PR because of PR. :D

We wont be able to play it because it will get release on last day of 2012 at midnight therefore causing ever atom to make apart due to the sheer amount of awesomeness that occurs at 1 single moment in time. This causes life in the universe to cease to exist

i really don't think that ARMA2 is the next level, its another version, but i guess it will not be half as radical as PR is compared to BF2, also keep in mind, while the devs are basicly redoing everytihng, and replace all BF2 models by own ones, this means as well, that those could be used in PR2 as well.
Most important offcause is, that this is the chance to make money with PR, and that is a very good reason for this project

And thats why the world ends December 28th, 2012. Thank John for that wonderful rendition of how everyone dies.

Also, PR devs are gonna be millionaires when PR2 hits the shelves.

TBH the BF2 engine, you can only do so much with, it Sucks, too much hardcoding where as with PR2 and the C4 engine, PR will have almost limitless possiblilities.

I wouldn't mind paying hundreds of dollars for it. Hell i would even pay a monthly fee for it. I play PR so much that it's worth it.

Also remember that the A2 version is being done by a group that does a few other A2 modding thingys. The devs are mostly just supplying the 3D renders and stuff like that... AFAIK. With a few lending hands, im sure however. =/

I think they make it just so the devs have something for themselves.

Mods will always limit the team in both developing boundry's but also a money side of things.
The way it is now the devs have a great oppertunity to become a proffesional studio.
Sure this comes at a price for all of use fans who will have to pay,but im willing to for the devs.

Well, the way I see it.. PR2 will be A2PR but without the unneccessary bugs caused by A2 and I believe it will also be less intense system resource wise. It will also provide a bit more choice for what the Dev team would like to include.

Other than that, subscription is good for continuous development and a purchase system is superior for availability/ease of use. I can't imagine that there's a crazy budget for marketing either...

Can't wait for PR2. I refuse to buy ArmA2 as it is such a terrible game, which means I'll miss out on A2PR, which is sad, but Bohemia don't deserve the money. A combat simulator? With no recoil? With a terrible menu system? With terrible voice acting? Simulates nothing but a dog taking a huge turd all over my face. No thanks.

So bring on PR2!

You do know that prophecy that stoned French man dribbled out was a crock of S$$$ right?.

there have been multiple predictions about the end of the world from people reading that book over the years And they have all been wrong every single time.

So what so different about this year there the mian prophecy. Now these are the guy's who used to sacrifice people to the sun because they believed if they don't the sun would not rise again XD.

Now let face it they where pretty far off on that one went they, they where so wrong it sickening. So now I ask why are we lessoning to these people?.

Rhys...you need to read a book.

Try the Maya before, " that stoned French man dribbled out was a crock of S$$$ right?."

It was a joke also!

I also believe the joke was wrong and that it is 22nd December ;)

I guess one would have to know what the militations of the ARMA 2 engine are and compare it to what the devs could do with their own engine.

I must say I have pretty high hopes for the ARMA 2 engine and think it will push PR to the next level, where one airfield can be used for every mission, because the jets take off from where the airfield is irl, rather than having to locate the airfield in the 4X4 combat zone.
