It will utilize DX12 from what I heard good lord that's good news for people FPS maybe lol. More details will be release about the new expansion

Welcome to Tanoa – home to lush tropical vegetation, unique landmarks, a rich history, and imposing man-made feats of modern engineering. Walk, swim, drive, fly, and sail your way across over 100 km² of the South Pacific archipelago.

Jungle terrain? Yes a lot more interesting environment than the other two.

Situated in the South Pacific, the island province of Tanoa is one of many that, together, compose the Horizon Islands – an independent island nation with historic ties to both East and West. Formerly an outpost belonging to the Empire of Japan, before its liberation by US Marines in 1944, evidence of a long history of conflict and turmoil can still be found dotted across the island – relics from times long-since passed.

The artstyle seems to have changed a bit with the map. Maybe they can surprise us by pulling off some jungle warfare

That would actually be something that would get me back into the game. If they manage to capture by adding some new things that would be something really refreshing.

As far as sandbox environments go, it' is the most photorealistic game on the market. Console people are very jealous of this, they should be.

In terms of art style definitely. In terms of scale and technical performance? Not even close.

Got a direct feed proving this against the OP's shots? It looked like a slightly modded Skyrim to me.

There is major difference though. Horizon was in engine, these shots are in game. In engine footage is akin to a Bullshot, in game is exactly what it can look like (I say can because it's obviously determined by an individuals hardware)

I'm guessing there is a fairly large audience for Arma considering how good it sells and the amount of support it gets from Bohemia .Plus is one of the few games that is doesnt get big discounts ( at most it gets about 30% discount ) since apparently even without discounts it sells

Being a real pc gamer who enjoyed tactical shooters, a genre currently on a ventilation machine, all but ready to enter the the light, Arma is privilege to play.

It's doubtful many modern gamers even know what a tactical shooter is, to them, it's gears of war.

DX12 is nice but won't help that much. It's more CPU bottlenecked by tracking large amounts of entities and calculating physics on them.
