munger 25 Posted December 9, 2003 If it's based on Keg's old Javelin does that mean the AI still can't use it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
suchey 0 Posted December 9, 2003 Munger...yes it does unfortunately. The AI has enough trouble trying to aim a LAW...the Javelin only confuses the crap out of them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Architeuthis 9 Posted December 9, 2003 Quote[/b] ]Also love the AKS-74U with supressor And the AKS074u is not even the only ak withsupressor in the pack  Cool... AKMS with supressor? edit: Would be very cool with a 9A-91, its so cool... Heh, but then again, i doubt that russian marines are using, only special forces Earl have already made the model for his Vympel mod for Ghost Recon http://www.baconbomb.com/vympel/images/9a91sd.jpg http://www.baconbomb.com/vympel/images/9a91.jpg http://www.baconbomb.com/vympel/images/vsk94.jpg Wow nice weapons, but shooting would be quite difficult if not impossible (no trigger and all   ). Anyway I hope these weapons will be included in the pack. Which leads me to another question: Suchey, you said that there will be several Marine packs and that the first one to be out is the assault pack. Will the MFR and Naval Spetznaz be included in the assault pack? And what kind of packs are there? Assault, sniper anything else? Well looking forward to the release, can't wait to be play with this digital art  Arch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AKM 0 Posted December 9, 2003 Apparently since the Marines have Force Recon, there are now Naval Spetsnaz units available... Sweet, as those have never been done before, primiarily army and airborne spetnsaz. -Yes, I know that the units would wear regular uniforms to blend in with the crowds of troopers, that was during the soviet era, nowadays, we get to see them in all their Spetsnaz glory.

Btw. It doesnt have burst mode either Its a AKS-74U, in real life its a piece of sh*t, and should be switched for an AKS-74 OR a AKS-74M the second you see one, and I can't think of a single Kalashnikov rifle of the AK-series that has a "Burst" option on it, other than fully-automatic - which by some may be considered a burst fire option, for some reason I don't understand. PLEASE, PLEASE, I implore you, get your facts straight. Although the alpha-numerical designations can be difficult with AK-series rifles, its by no means impossible. At least do a little quick check... And, finally, I will conceed the "stage" to anyone else with this parting comment: "Excellently fantastically makes-me-want-it-badly work there Earl, Suchey, and Tactician. Also, many thanks to Blackdog for posting that pic of the Naval Spetsnaz." AK Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
suchey 0 Posted December 9, 2003 Yes Force Recon and Naval Inf. Spetz will be represented. The AKs 74u is named properly in the pack...and none of the Aks have burst fire...only single and full. In regard to the possibility of future packs....nothing has been decided and no timeline is available on them. Right now we are focusing all of our energies into polishing up this portion. In regard to which AKs-74u variants will be available, I posted those pictures simply to show that the naming convention used was correct. However, there WILL be multiple variants of ALL weapons available in the package. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
frk19732001 0 Posted December 9, 2003 that's great to ear can't wait to see something to download on the marine assault pack button on your site keep up the good work guys Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AKM 0 Posted December 9, 2003 All Hail Suchey, the new God. Thanks for the hard work you've put in so far, I'm hoping that release will come when I'm awake. I recommend many, many mirrors... there will be much dancing in the streets, joy, free booze, and download"age". AK Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Harnu 0 Posted December 9, 2003 About how large is the pack? The Marines themselves are around 50 megs. Â The whole pack with the other addons that are used in some of the MP missions and such along with the Marines themselves is about 95-100 megs.

suchey 0 Posted December 9, 2003 I dont know the exact file sizes yet, but the ones expressed above are complete with an installer (it is 41 megs right now WITH the installer)...so compression is not that great. We will offer the package also as a plain zip and rar file. The zip file is about the same as the installer, but the RAR file will be about 75% of that...so I would expect the package as a RAR file to run at around 30 megs. The other package that he is talking about is a collection of addons which have been used in some of the missions created for the soldiers by Jocko and our beta testers. These are not madatory and you only need that package if you intend to play on the dedicated server (MTCO) where the Marine Pack will be initially hosted on the day of release (and available to anyone who wants to get in some good games with the new stuff!) You will also need this if you plan on hosting any of these missions on your own server with the Marine pack. This optional package will also be set up for a server addon pack installer or downloadable in RAR or ZIP form. OFP Watch is by far the preffered method as you can cut down the load time for the addons considerably due to the fact that Im sure many of you have alot of the addons that are being used (IE AKM74s lite armor package) and you wont need to DL them again (OFP Watch can determine what addons you dont have and download only those which you need and skip those you have--a very handy tool that everyone shoudl use!). (who knows...the Marines may just pop up on that some day too! ) You can actually get a jump on this by getting youself the program here: http://www.binarybone.com/ofpwatch/ All of the addons used in the missions on the server so far (except the Marines) are currently available by using that. (keep in mind that in testing many of our missions remained infantry based so that bugs could be more easily spotted--the addons used so far have been mostly geared toward complementing ground infantry combat). There are approximately 27 megs of addons used in the missions (outside of the Marine Pack itself). You can choose to get these or not at your own discression although (once again) if you plan to play on the MTCO server you will need them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

suchey 0 Posted December 9, 2003 Quote[/b] ]And I think mine will be available too... (as it has crosshairs enabled, unlike MTCO) I dont want to debate the crosshair thing...its been done to death and theres good points on both sides...but the MTCO server does indeed run WITHOUT 3rd person and WITHOUT crosshairs. I think many of the beta testers (including those who complained about it in the beginning) have found it to be a nice new wrinkle in OFP. Besides...the crosshairs just foul up all the hard work that Earl put into his scopes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bn880 5 Posted December 10, 2003 Then I see it as a good thing one large server does and the other does not have the crosshairs. People have a choice. Not everything has to be a competition. just my 2cents Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
