dwringer 45 Posted May 9, 2011 (edited) I had dismissed it as my overactive imagination, or a desire to see something that's not there, but now that you guys mention malden, I have to say, I looked up some Arma 2 billboards to see if the ascii art from the animation resembled any of them, and the only thing I located with similar composition (if you kinda squint and use your imagination as to the color conversion algorithm they must have used to make it into text) was the billboard displayed at 0:16 on the page Which also makes me think that it would mean Greece ends up invading Malden. The reference to 1821 is to the Greek War of Independence, seizing their opportunity when the superpowers of the time were distracted.

Neopas 10 Posted May 9, 2011 worm looks like snake, lolAm i missing something xd Lizzard without legs.Completely harmless.A desperate military extension in the meaning of this clue would be the Greek Lizzard Camo.Depending how much imagination is allowed,all the clues could have, more or less, some flashpoint hints, even the innocent endangered plant on Agios Efstratios island(see cancelled NATO exercise in the area Feb/2007). BTW Pegasus was carrying thunders from Hephaustus workshop to Olympus . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
da12thMonkey 1943 Posted May 9, 2011 Lizzard without legs.Completely harmless.A desperate military extension in the meaning of this clue would be the Greek Lizzard Camo. Speaking of the 'Lizzard' camo pattern. I remember thinking that the pattern used to make the 'camouflage.jpg' stereogram released last week, looked like it had a similar appearance to some 'Lizzard' uniform variants Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dwringer 45 Posted May 9, 2011 (edited) From the OFP: CWC article on wikipedia, the latest edit (just today!): (cur | prev) 22:24, 9 May 2011 178.105.169.206 (talk) (16,603 bytes) (→Reception: working on merging new graphics engine with opf (got alot of work to do)) (undo) The edit added a bullet point to the Reception heading (citing reviews and such): * I have taken it upon myself to try and improve the game with a better engine merging the game with a better operating engine will be hard but challenging wish me luck ILL need it But, that IP looks to be a T-Mobile account from the UK. So this might be a complete non sequitur. Interestingly, it was done precisely 1 minute after Neopas' comment directly above, if my timezone estimations are correct.

I loved Malden, but I think mainly because of the OFP demo... :p It was the first island where you had the freedom that this game series has!

mattxr 9 Posted May 10, 2011 (edited) http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/MaldenI never liked Malden, its color palette basically consisted of birdshit yellow, birdshit green and for some reason purple. Well Lefkada (Malden) History "The myth about Sappho's suicide at Cape Lefkada is related to other myths linking the island to the ancient Greek goddess of love, Aphrodite" Well Aphrodite was married to Hephaestus so i think thats that link cracked too... I remember the Avon Lady when she first posted some news about OFP2... it said "Operation Flashpoint 2 will feature three different theatres of combat set in environments across Southeast Asia, Central Europe and Africa." but then codem stole the name... then that game.. dissapeared off the map :/ Thinking of Flashpoint Days .. Ahh brings back too many good memories haha Attacking that airport! Edited May 10, 2011 by MattXR Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
