Yeah because we see so many games where each model lies on the ground in its own unique way depending on the terrain.
Not to mention, holding the gun at an angle and looking at your teams mates with the gun facing the other way.

Must be a clever game!

Doesn't look rendered at all... surprised how people can say that to be honest, unless they don't have an 8800 series card maybe. The model and landscape detail are definately within the scope of modern engines... in fact i'd say they're certainly not the best i've seen. Look at the blade of glass closest to the screen form our perspective... definately rendfdered in-game. However it's the sky and smoke that have a slightly off look to them... if you ask me they're been smoothed and blurred while the foreground has been kept "as-is".

if thats in-game i would love to see this 'better' engine which you refer, unless its crysis

but it is isn't it? it was created by BIS Operation Flashpoint 2 will be done by codemasters will it not?

BIS = talent that gave us OPFlash 1 and OPflash 1.5 aka Armed Assault

Codemasters = owners of the name Opflash and owners of rhte name Opflash 2

this is what I am led to belive anyhow

BIS and Codemasters fell out, BIS went on and made ARMA based on the original ofp engine but made better all round. Game 2 will be an even more advance version of ARMA.

Codemasters version will be nothing like the original flashpoint except in its name. Therfore if that is the one codemasters are making then it wont be anything like the original, you want ARMA if your looking for that.

only problem is the random performance of ArmA, it looks good with 16AA and 16AF and everything maxed but the performance is truely shocking, so either BIS have to get there heads together and solve the horrendous problems with ArmA or operation flashpoint II is gonna stamp all over it, and without all graphics maxed and AA/AF, etc. it just looks like operation flashpoint, with worse performance :confused:

To clear up the confusion:

Operation Flashpoint: The best game of 2001, developed by BI and published by Codemasters

Armed Assault: Interim-follow up to OPFLASH. Developed by BI

"Game 2" (working title): Intended as a true follow up to OPFLASH. In development by BI.

Operation Flashpoint 2: It will be published by the IP holders (Codemasters). Nobody knows what dev studio has it's hands on it.

Yeah Crysis... Bioshock also looks better. But look at the screenie, there's aliasing everywhere... I really don't think it's pre-rendered.
