Arma 3 is coming! In between all ofthe new Arma 3 info and shiny, shiny screenshots, Bohemia also released the system requirements for the game. Be warned, they’re pretty high. It looks like some of us are going to have to upgrade if we’re going to run the military sim when it’s released in summer 2012.

ARMA 3 and ARMA Reforger project lead Krzysztof Bielawski discusses the use of the game for misinformation in real-world conflict.
Bohemia Interactive claims an ARMA 3 console port is completely impossible, but more optimisations are in the works.
Core i5 or Phenom X4....Whoa! I'm speechless. This game is gonna be brutal.
time to seriously upgrade those 8800GTX as that's not gonna cut it NO MORE!
I'm almost wanna say screw BF3 (I said almost) Give me Arma 3 NOW! Next Sunday while I'm playing Arma II with my friends I'll be dreaming about Arma 3 for sure.
Those are "ESTIMATED SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS" as stated by the fact sheet and not set in stone. They still can change (and probably will) till release (which is more than a year away)
it better look freaking better than bf3....the last arma looked mediocre at best, honestly just a bit above call of duty 6 on pc , yes, i owned it, yes my pc had it completely maxed in 1920x1080p(it ran at only 50 fps which pissed me off....i like 60..)

Its about time developers took PC gaming forward with better support for multi core processors. I'll be buying this game for sure but as FasterThanFTL says I hope they work on the animation as it is really poor, also the voice acting. I think about the very first mission and shudder where you sit in the helicopter and have that ridiculous conversation with a squad member whose voice is really disjointed with poor character acting and zero lip syncing. I know its a military sim but just do that and give me a briefing page then straight into the mission and ditch the cutscenes if you're not going to bother putting any work into them.
