What about artillery in VBS1?

And the mission review option?

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

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. tounge_o.gif

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.

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. smile_o.gif

BAS does addons...

EDIT: I think you see the contrast between the two general statements

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. tounge_o.gifbiggrin_o.gif

Who you calling a pothead? crazy_o.gifsmile_o.gif 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. smile_o.gif

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.

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.

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.
