This is an very odd situation here.IL has been shown to the public way longer before the OFP2.Maybe IL is going to be the first addon campaign for OFP2.I also think that OFP2 will have alot of the VBS vehicles and stuff in it as well,

How do you work that out? VBS1 is a modern training simulator, with modern equipment, vehicles and aircraft, OFP2 is set in the years surrounding 1970, the equipments/weapons/vehicles are completely different.

If they release it after OFP2, then it will dead sure be an expansion for OFP2.

according to recent interviews from ofp.info and @war, BIS Austrailia is also going to be involved in OFP2 project. maybe this is why IL is delayed.

I believe IL will be an expansion for OFP2 to bring it to a modern setting, an addition for those that don't like playing in the 70's. At least that sounds like a good idea to me. icon14.gif

Hopefully it'll be out just a few months after OFP2, instead of a year like it was w/ resistance.

Well if you look at the pics on IL you will see the what I mean.Im not talking about OFP2 being Like VBS.I just think that the units will be there.And about the 1970,Thats is going to be for the OFP2 main campaign.Not IL.It all makes sense to me,But I can be wrong.

Well, even if IL is an expansion for OFP2, if your theory is correct, then it will be IL with all the VBS1 units, not OFP2, i mean, just because OFP:R includes a V-80, you dont tell people that its in OFP:CWC do you?

It's also possible that BIS will be using/stealing East Timor from BIS Australia, then the Australia guys will release a unit pack or something.

Doesnt fit in with their campaigns, East Timor is in Australasia/Oceania i think. The vegetation/buildings will be different from Vietnam.

As one of the OFP2 campaigns will deal with some sort of caucasus invasion, which would be positioned somewhere at the end of the 80's or the beginning of the 90's, I think we will for sure see some modern unit's beside the Vietnam setting of the other campaign. Most likely the Afrika campaign will be somwhere in between (early 80's).

But yes, IL will most likely be an expansion for OFP2. I believe that, too.

Quote[/b] ]Operation Flashpoint 2, a true sequel to the million-selling military simulator, will feature three different theatres of combat set in environments across Southeast Asia, Central Europe and Africa. The game’s mission-based campaigns will take gamers through fictional conflicts based upon authentic events during the years around 1970.

From the wording of that it seems all the campaigns will be set during the years around 1970.

The Caucus isn't "central europe"..

I think at the start of IL it will flash back to NAM as the veteran soldier reflects on his days there, the soldier is now involved in the East Timor conflict which will be in more modern days. This is a project worked on by BIS Australia that was going to be before OFP2 but now it will be released after it. As I think it has been rethought to be based on OFP2's engine rather than develope it's own, or use Resistance's. I was going to explain about the link between OFP2 and the soldier in IL but that would give the ending to OFP2 away and ppl would  bash me. (Or the info provided to me could be tricksome lies and in that case I know nothing :P)

edit - my sig is mental after the new forums, anyone know why and how to fix?? wink_o.gif

On this website it's got a newspaper with the headline "US MARINE PEACEKEEPERS PULL OUT OF EAST TIMOR FOR GULF OPERATION..."

I assume IL will be set during the gulf war, but in East Timor.

This has probably been said and argued over a billion times already, but I don't understand why you guys are saying IL will be in the 70's when we've got that.

Why argue when you can search The FAQ for "independence lost" and read the story line. rock.gif
