Hidden 0 Posted February 16, 2003 Well meeeh.. OFP completely demolished my view on FPS games, and since OFP 1985, I have not been able to play and actually enjoy most FPS games but OFP.. As soon as I step into another FPS game, I look for the iron sights button, but can't find it.. after lots of cussing, I try to play the game using that magical floating crosshair, but just have to give up. Usually after descovering the AI is crap and does exactly what I thought it would do. And when playing MP, everybody play CS or UT style. Not that they don't do it with OFP too, but at least you can do it with style in OFP. But when I get back into OFP, I notice the static, dead nature. The very only thing I consider bad with OFP. The outdoor areas are huge, but at the same time it feels dead. No moving trees and bushes animations, no wildlife, not even tiny bugs and birds in the forest areas. I really really hope for this in "Independence Lost", it adds so much to a game like this. Or at least the possibility to make 3rd party ones. So basically, the washy colors and static nature is what stops me from re-installing OFP and Resistance at the moment. The ironic fact is that the enviroment graphics are so good, it is almost life-like - but then again too perfect, which makes it feel dead. Isn't that hilarious.. After some time I won't be able to hold it any longer anyway, and will install it again and play like the good old days. I love OFP - it was a milestone, and I'm sure BIS will come up with another one soon, with IL. Not to put anymore pressure on them, but I am sure it will be the best war game on the planet!

I'm going to have to say that if the community isn't going to last forever, it's had a good run (a VERY good run). Not to say it's done yet or anything; I mean hell, things are just starting to get really interesting in the addons and mods department, and with any luck BIS will have officially announced their intentions vis a vis OFP2 inside of 6 months. I know I don't exactly have the widest range of gaming interests, but that right there is enough to keep me with OFP (not that a little extra wouldn't help).<span id='postcolor'> BIS is currently working on a WW2 RTS game.

Â It really adds alot to mp gameplay having new weapons and great new toys to play with in multiplay. Â You can grab the pack at www.digitalgrenade.com and the server info is available there as well. Â If your looking to add a little something new to the game in the multiplay realm, swing by and check it out!<span id='postcolor'> I just want to add that I recently started online playing now and then in OFP for the first time since I bought the original OFP--the interface has improved enough that I was willing to bother with it instead of playing Tribes2--and I happened upon MTCO.COM and the Digital Grenadiers, to my joy. As a wise poster said in another topic, too many servers require addons, and many of us don't join games because of the addons burden [download, then install, then restart] in addition to the wait imposed by each game [you can't play until a game has finished]. If players could join in-game, the story'd be different, but when you dl an addon pack and then have to wait another 30 min to play, you find something else to do instead .... Having said that, I agree with that same wise poster [sorry, don't have your name in front of me now] who gives kudos to the Digital Grenadiers for making their addons requirement available in a single, simple installation. That's why I bothered--and I was glad to see the result. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jacko 0 Posted February 21, 2003 I still hear from people that they just started playing the game, so I don't think the game will die soon. And with the new MOD's coming...

Skunk Monkey 0 Posted February 21, 2003 Personally I think that OFP has a good 2 years left in the ghame engine, Resistance brought it up to speed with current graphics quality and a better net code. Independence Lost may add some extra stuff. I think the OFP community is going from strength to strength. The MP community is getting better and better gaming as more and more powerful servers are used as this is the limiting factor in MP Gameplay. Most servers are now 2-3Ghz, when i started playing OFP online most servers were 1-2Ghz, the extra power really does make the differance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
