Major Fubar 0 Posted May 15, 2003 With all this talk about addon packs, AAE etc. I was wondering if people would like to vote for their top three addons in each category. I think it would be a good guide for what to include in addon packs - and quite different to the "best addons" sticky, which is a little disorganised for this purpose...I'll give an example - Best addons by category: Units - BAS Deltas/Rangers - SJB Special Reaction Team - SDOC/UCE Russian Infantry Weapons - BAS Weapons pack (Deltas/Rangers) - HK Pack (Lost Brothers mod) - Kegetys East weapon pack Vehicles (Land) - MT-LB Pack (Maac & MArfy) - Sigma's T-80 Pack - BMD-3 (AMK74) Vehicles (Air) - Bas Littlebirds - DKM Bronco - Mi-2 Hoplite (Nashe Oruzhie) Vehicles (Water) - Miraj (Antichrist) - LSD (Jafergon) - Fremantle Class Patrol Boat (ADF mod) Islands - Skye (Waterman) - Dr. No (Dav & UMF) - Winter Nogojev (Kegetys) Others - Industrial Pack (Agent Smith) - Bunker Packs (GFX 707) - Radar blockhouse (Colonel Klink) (Mods, I hope you don't consider this subject done to death, but I really think this could help with compiling addon packs)...

Guest Posted May 15, 2003 May I suggest these instead: Islands Trinity 1.2 Legus 1.1 Sarugao Those IMHO are the best 3 custom islands...absolutely no offence to any others out there (I think there are some superb islands out there now), but they are the pick of the bunch.

Guest Posted May 16, 2003 My criteria here doesn't focuses on addons that show incredible technical achievement (like MH-47E or FA/18) but rather a "perfect fit" in OFPs game world.  Balance. Infantry:  I44 WWII units (both sides)  SDOC UCE Russian Infantry Pack  PFLP addon Tanks:  Sigma adversary tank pack  Ra'anan's merkava?? (just hoping)  I44 Armor Fixed Wing:  DKM Bronco (addon most suitable to OFP gameplay by far, should have been included with game from V 1.0! )  Bratz F4U (pending new textures)  Gimbal's planes  Helis:  Littlebirds  MI2-hoplite  Nam pack's choppers Islands:  Dr. No (albeit small)  Jelahabat  Cat's Afghanistan  Hellden (forgot which version)  Winter Nogojev Weapons:   Nam Packs'  HD weapons (i have been waiting for HD weapons for a long time)  LB pack  Bas (of course) Other:   Anything by GFX707  Red's weapon pack  Kegety's sky   Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest BratZ Posted May 16, 2003 Ya well see everyone has different tastes: Best Soldiers : Any decent WW2 soldier (I44) Best Land Vehicles : STT Kawasaki KLR,Black Barons Challenger Best Armor: Vibes German tanks (my inspiration) Best Water Vehicle : LSD Best Air: DKm Bronco (alot of nice choppers out and havent tried enough to say) Best Weapon: Vibes Pak36 Best Other: Kegetys Sky Currently my interests are WW2, alot of nice jets out I havent tried them all,cant comment on those either Many addons not listed and not tested Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest DKM-jaguar Posted June 22, 2003 YAY! yet another pointless list of addons people like. Why? to put the teams that dont get on the lists down? To tell people which addons to like? I dont get why. It just seems a big put down. but anyway.. Heh, i am so biased: Best land vehicle: DKM adats or Tunguska Best air vehicle: DKM bronco or RAH66 Best sea vehicle: The MKII PBR Best unit: marfys 82nd airborne desert troops best weapon: DKM TOW, DKM PSG1, DKM PSG1 slienced Best object: DKm cammo net well...i am just saying that becuase we got like 3 votes :P but it is good quality stuff (i thought that before i joined so dont say i am bragging) and anything at all by maarfy, becuase he is the best addon maker ever.

Guest Posted June 22, 2003 Hehehehe...you pimp Jaguar One reason to have these threads (the only reason?) is that if you are new to the game, and you suddenly realise that there are user made addons....what do you download? So a "Best Addon" thread can help guide a new user to some excellent addons, instead of having to troll through gig after gig of addons. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest DKM-jaguar Posted June 22, 2003 Yeah i suppose.... but still seems a little harsh, and should maybe let them make their own minds up. I remember i played OFP as soon as it came out, and i joined the ofp community quite early, and the first addon i saw was thr ADATS and the PSG1, and when i played it i knew i had to pester DKM about joining... just check out our fourms So i have my views becuase i was not actually biased back then, i saw one of the highest quality mods around and i thought they were like addon making gods. So shouldn't we just let the newbies find out for themselves? (not saying you should stop this.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
