Goeth 0 Posted April 30, 2003 I would like to see more differences between these two modes. First that comes to mind is that when you choose the veteran mode the gun recoils would change to much more realistic ones, maybe armor values would change and ammo damages would be more realistic. Anyone some good ideas? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stgn 39 Posted May 1, 2003 that sounds like a bad Idear why should you play CS in easy mode and Play OFP en veteran mode. STGN Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I like OFP to be as realistic as possible. But as you can see now playing OFP in the net most people do not(all servers play with these annoying chrosshairs on for example) And the game should appeal to a large number of players (for BIS to earn good money). So scaling the realism seems to be a verry good idea for me! Works fine for realistic FS like IL2 BTW. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Goeth 0 Posted May 1, 2003 Exactly, i don´t see any harm if bis gives more options regarding the difficulty level. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stgn 39 Posted May 1, 2003 I think that reality comes first I dont wanna se OFP turning int to CS even on easy mode I agree that you may be able to set some more things but not how veapons vork and how thick amour are. STGN Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Goeth 0 Posted May 1, 2003 Well the veteran mode in current ofp doesn´t satisfy me because there is no big differences compared to cadet mode. I really would like to have a real veteran mode and we can´t achive that without touching the armour levels and recoils. Harder the better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Baron Hurlothrumbo IIX 0 Posted May 2, 2003 Im with Goeth here, more realism, better. As long as there is options you cannot go wrong. I think the [FGG] server plays without the crosshairs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

STGN<span id='postcolor'> Not a bad idea, but still i don´t think the recoils and damage levels are realistic if you look at the current ofp. Just look the m16 rifle, i think it´s not possible in real life to shoot targets to 200m with speed of 900 bullets per minute and every bullet hit the target. and the config writing shouldnt bee too much trouble if bis gives a recoils template or something like that. But yes that cadet/veteran thingie would give some extra work to addon makers but not too much i think. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

whisperFFW06 0 Posted May 4, 2003 About recoils, why set the aimpoint back to initial position after firing? This enable "long distance bullet spray", one of the most horrible thing seen in MP. The aimpoint should be a little above (it's feasible today in OFP, but better having it without 3rd part addons). On the same level, why restrict recoil to vertical movements? Whis' PS: Check my sig, pingZero has no 3rd view, no weapon crosshair when playing in vet. BTW playing in Cadet only put crosshairs back Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Major Fubar 0 Posted May 5, 2003 Number of saves per mission should be a difficulty option: settable from 0 (for hardcore troopers) to unlimited (fresh meat)...and in between (1, 3, 5 etc.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
