Spy17 1 Posted January 14, 2004 What about artillery in VBS1? And the mission review option? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BraTTy 0 Posted January 15, 2004 Thanks for the insight on VBS , I assumed that it was same thing as OFP just using classes of addons for target audience ie: Police,Swat,Civilian,Crimminal units when sold to law enforcement Marines and nowadays prolly mid eastern units when sold to USMC I assumed they were using those nice civilian units from Martin and such and would desire addons for example : 747 airliner,news chopper,swat vans,armored cars,civilian locations and such Suppose its something they may want to consider for VBS2 Would be automatic sale for agencies involved with the war on terror if they could train for airport and location security Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest jacobaby Posted January 15, 2004 great post dinger!! so v true Most of the military units I speak with use standard OFP anyways. TJ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bn880 5 Posted February 23, 2004 I'm kind of surprized about this since AFAIK they don't have that much business currently with most trying to switch to OFP from VBS1. And if they keep focusing on CQB then there she goes... In depth Gaming System Development, maybe they want to hire Suma. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And if they keep focusing on CQB then there she goes... Well, if they want to make any money they need to improve their product. So hiring some skilled hands seems like a logical thing to do.

bn880 5 Posted February 24, 2004 I was thinking, but what will stop the marines or others from hiring these hands directly, cutting out Coalescent, getting better results and saving a buck. I see really one one "major" benefit to VBS1 over OFP195 so... but anyway, I think being more versatile on behalf of Coalescent is very much needed, good idea.

BraTTy 0 Posted February 24, 2004 They hiring in the US? Says Florida..sounds great ,but they must be looking for the Bas team, who fit's the "Extensive Mission" part.I'm more likely to script a mission. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bn880 5 Posted February 24, 2004 Nope, they are looking for this not BAS Quote[/b] ]Write, modify and test scripting language to support the Virtual Battlefield (VBS1) module development. BAS does addons...EDIT: I think you see the contrast between the two general statements Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SpeedyDonkey 0 Posted February 24, 2004 "Write, modify and test scripting language to support the Virtual Battlefield (VBS1) module development." Sounds like something for bn880? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hellfish6 7 Posted February 24, 2004 As Coalescent is a defense contractor, you probably have to be an American citizen and able to get a security clearance. That rules out most of you potheads. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bn880 5 Posted February 24, 2004 Who you calling a pothead? It's ok, we'll send Dinger in. EDIT: And I don't think this rules out non US or Aussie citizens BTW. If they had that requirement it would be stated. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Baphomet 0 Posted March 7, 2004 All this talk and seeing VBS stuff. What with those mysterious (supposedly VBS 2) screenies at ofp.info. Just makes me sad I'll never play it. And that's just sad in of itself. Being sad about a computer game. But oh what a computer game it would be. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bn880 5 Posted March 7, 2004 I think you need to read over the last few pages in this thread, you are not missing anything from an enjoyment perspective, I think a few people here can guarantee this to you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Powerslide 0 Posted March 7, 2004 Ya what are you missing exactly? From what I hear VBS is no better then OFPR. Furthermore the addons are better for OFPR. Essentially it's the same game anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
