Animals

Sheeps and goats are a must in Yugoslavia

Bears would have been good on the OFP1 islands. Dogs and cats would be good "motion decoys", things that make you look. As it is now, if something moves, you know it is either friend or enemy. It sticks out like a sore thumb. B.I. did a nice job of touching on this by making some of the bushes appear like soldiers or vehicles, but motion decoys are needed.

Guard dogs to sniff soldiers out and to hear what you normally couldn't hear would also be great.

Horses would have been in use by Polish Cavalry forces in the 80's, I believe. At least, Twilight: 2000 seemed to say something like this. I should think Resistance fights, a la "Red Dawn", would make good use of horses, too.

Its amazing how animals make much more believable gameworlds, VC is a good example of this, like when you arrive at a village and there are chicken and ducks movin around, or when you are at a jungle and see insects, frogs, birds... it makes everything much more alive and therefor believable and immersive . Obviously it wouldnt be possible to populate an island the size of Nogova with many animals but it should be possible to place them where we want in the mission editor, i really hope BIS considers this request.

It would be good to have tigers in it, just like apocolypse now.

I think there could be 2d Sprites of birds flying over head, that would give atmosphere and not drain the processer of computers.

There is a funny story of dogs being used in war though. The russian in WW2 thought they'd be smart and taught a a bunch of dogs to run under tanks. They then placed explosives on the dogsand sent them to the battle field and gave them the signal to run under the tanks. The problem was the russians trained the dogs on their own tanks. The dogs ran forward towards the germans but didn't recoginise the Tigertanks so they turned around and saw the Russian and ran under them instead and blew up their own tanks.

In Alaska, a mama moose can be a dangerous thing! They will charge the grill of vehicles head on!

it would be nice to see vultures flying around corpses...

but... ya know... putting too many animals in the game turns each island into a wildlife reserve.

I wrote this in another topic. I hope BIS sees this

Now as far as i understand BIS said that they would like to have animals in game... So if we had animals we should be able to play as animals, like the seagull right now in MP... But this time we could make like dog CTF, cow DM or Weasel COOP.

If Bis can make animals im sure it woudln't be to hard to make them playable, and while this might sound like a ridiculous sugestion it would be fun for a change and give grater possibilities for varied game types.

OPF2: realistic simulation of animal behavior in a high detailed natural environment. Weasel coop eh?

I think animals would be great, especially if they were ambient and didn't recquire you to add them in in the mission editory.

Imagine going out on a sniper mission and watching a few deer frolick around in the field in front of you.

Yes, I'm absolutely positive there were animals in Vietnam's jungle. Even a certain type of deer lives there I think. Plus of course monkeys, snakes, birds, water buffalo, wild boars, so on and so forth.

...yes, and did i mentioned that the VC/NVA used elephants to carry supplies through the "ho chi minh" trail, this is not a joke, they actually did . Big animals are questionable but birds, insects and maybe some lizards would be really great to have in jungle of vietnam.

Also camels in Africa!

You can hijack them!

And go riding around in the desert...

Ok i'll shut up.

I'd suggest more African flora and fauna besides camels. Especially if the Africa in-game is sub-Saharan Africa. I'd prefer to see elephants, rhinos, lion, impalas and gazelles. Kind of like a virtual safari... but I'm an animal nut. I'd be happy with birds and dogs. Maybe an occasional hippo in the water.

yes, you do that, I hunt them.

since there are 3 places of war, I guess there should be diversity of species.

It'd be pretty frickin cool if the animals had some sort of AI. Imagine, walking through the jungle only to have a deer startle and leap up in front of you and then bound away into the forest. You'd nearly wet yourself and fire off half a clip before you realized what happened. Also, imagine pissing off a nearby rhino or elephant and having it charge you. Or, while stalking the enemy, you yourself are being stalked by a tiger. Adds a whole new dimension to the game doesn't it?

or simply :

on an infiltration op , you make too much noise or move too fast and a flock of birds fly off the trees around you

wouldn't that be great in MP and for the atmoshphere ?

Deer don't live in the jungle

Hippo? I wouldnt feel safe crossing a river in a small boat.
