I don't remember if I was reading conjecture or not, but I think the game was supposed to have only a few people per instance versus having 9000 operators in the field, so you'd be working as a fire team or squad-sized element for most of the game. I'd probably try to link up with some dudes from the Arma community in order to get the most out of this game.

Now I did think about this for a while and now that you mentioned the word squad, I wonder if there can be such things as one man squads, so that forever alone people like me would be able to still try this game out. Granted I wouldn't be able to benefit from most of those mechanics that were shown in the trailer, but it would make sense for the game. I mean it's a post-apocalyptic game setting right? Realistically there would be some cases that people would just go rogue and be every man and woman for him/herself. Realistically they wouldn't last as long as a 2-5 or more man/woman squad, but I think it would still probably maybe possibly hopefully, pretty please work...
Right? Erm, right?

A squad is 8-12 people, so you'd just refer to yourself as an operator. I prefer playing most games by myself, so if I'm forced to team up with people I'll be a little pissed. Even if the game is harder, I'd just adapt to it. When I actually do play on teams, I tend to separate from the group and complete all the objectives while all eyes are on the conflict directly in front of them, anyway.

Man, it'd be fun to play as your friend neighborhood RC Copter and go around giving tactical orders and buffs to help people out in a pinch. Kinda like a more intimate commander mode.

Good stuff.

Aaa you mean go for a bit of looting while everybody is busy trying to stay alive, right?

Yeah, I was liking that game myself. I expect you have to join a guild/clan in order to get the most out of that particular game and combat looks like it's more heavily HP based. It took quite a few shots to take shots to take down one npc.

Well since they're making it an RPG it wouldn't make much sense if you could kill NPCs, or other players, with a few bullets, they need to make it at least somewhat challenging for the player to enter a building and to loot it, especially if you can find some good stuff inside. This game seems like it will be heavily clan based, but at the same time, at the end of the gameplay video, when it zoomed out it just seemed like there were a lot of other teams around the city, not necessarily multiple teams belonging to different factions or clans. Hopefully they will have a solid faction system built in.

Romania: A shitty country that few people can ever claim they are proud to originate from. Has some of the most powerful and fastest internet that puts countries like the US and the UK to shame. Still not recognized by Xbox Live. No Xbones here.

As the great grumpy cat would say:
Good! > : (

Bit offtopic but not sure since I haven't lived in Romania for a while now but when I left 5 years ago Internet was good only on a National level because of the overextending LANs, but the external speeds were fairly low. Is it different now? Besides the point, how many people you know that could afford an XBone alone there anyway? Better yet, if they had the money to buy an XBone, would dropping the equivalent of almost half a grand in pounds even be a thing they would spend their money on? No worries though, I'm sure someone will crack the blasted thing within a few months of its release and people will be able to torrent and play most single player games which would justify the initial buy. Although it is annoying how game devs have to pay because of the console devs failures.

So I was curious and the Xbox One preorder lists is full in the 6 Gamestops around my area. PS4 was only full in 3 of the stores.

Different areas will have different preferences of course, but whether or not Xbone has online requirements or blocks used games, I expect it'll still sell pretty well.

Yea pretty much. Funny thing is, I know a lot more people who have PS3 instead of 360 around here.

Gamestops have 40-50 PS4 units for preorder and about 8-10 X1 units. For whatever reason, Microsoft is limiting supply.

Same here, a lot of people I know (sport games fans) initially bought the 360 and played a lot of NHL and other games. However, they changed consoles as more and more people bought Fifa 12 and 13 for the PS3 instead. I do not know what the reason was for this sudden change in consoles due to only one game, was it the controls or do the games play in console limited networks (people can't play Fifa 13 with each other across platforms)?
