The Frenchman 0 Posted June 24, 2003 I'm sure the weapons in their are better than ours. Maybe but not the optics. Look at the one computer. BIS black sights instead of suchey's M16 sights. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ralphwiggum 6 Posted June 24, 2003 It is my personal guess that some of addons for VBS became available for us as form of 1.30 patch(XMS, Steyr, Laser guider, hummer) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
waffendennis 0 Posted June 24, 2003 Well Ralph i think that to and maybe bis is going to release more? ( if you look at the Flashpoint1985.com site and then the addons you see only the WW1 plane so maybe bis gives us more ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
-TU--33ker 0 Posted June 25, 2003 a lot of the stuff displayed at the IL homepage looks like the stuff displayed at the VBS1 homepage. maybe we'll get some of the cool VBS1 stuff in IL when it comes out after the release of OFP2? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bn880 5 Posted June 26, 2003 Maybe it's just me but the guy to the left (in civilian clothing) sure looks like colin powell ? Yeah, this must be the place where the mobile Bio/Chem lab evidence came from, is that the satellite image of buildings and cars we saw on TV? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Heatseeker 0 Posted June 26, 2003 I think they can choose what they want in VBS1, they just order some copies and say: "oh..., and we could use some marine soldiers, vehicals, opfor dudes and we will mail you the prints for the buildings we want k?". And VBS1 ppl say: "Sure dude, but it will cost you extra, ill send you your "stuff" in 6 months ok?" And the military dude replies: "eh, money is no prob m8, did you know how much tax money we spend in Americas Army..." And we get free addons from the great talented OPF comunity, i wonder if some cheap countrys use "unoficial" addons in their VBS1 instalation . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NZXSHADOWS 0 Posted June 26, 2003 Cheap countries probly use regular flashpoint for there Battle sim.And on the side note has any of you seen the VBS1 Demonstration video. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bn880 5 Posted June 26, 2003 And we get free addons from the great talented OPF comunity, Surely you are not suggesting that the dedication OFP addon makers have for their hobby is in turn used to train some part of the military without due credit given. Wonder how much some addon makers would like it to know their addons were used to train a part of the military which was or is involved in armed conflicts.

Other terrorists: OOhhhh... terrorist evil man: ..."and it comes with resistance too!" terrorist leader: "lets dowload some addons and find out how the western pigs are planning to rule our world!" all the terrorists: MuHahahhaha! My reply actually is... ofcourse not , but many addons are really high quality and some even try to replicate the real thing in handling, performance, etc. I think we have our own version of VBS1 after all .

(starts to whistle the Marine's hymn as the blade falls upon his neck for the mistake of calling marines soldiers) the two terms hardly belong in the same sentance.

Jinef 2 Posted June 27, 2003 If the marines lived on ships and trained exclusively for comabat in marine enviroments then ok, but they are used as a fast deploying expeditionary force which is highly capable in lots of enviroments and uses a large arrange of assets in a combined force approach. They are defined as soldiers. I would call the Royal Marines soldiers as well. So would they. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

-TU--33ker 0 Posted July 8, 2003 Hey do you see the buildings behind the plane? Compare them with this. Coalescent tech seems to have some damn good addons, but they also seem to use some from the OFP community! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bn880 5 Posted July 8, 2003 I'm sure if they make a big profit they will be up front and share with the community. or not Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ale2999 0 Posted July 8, 2003 I dont think the buildings window colors look similar...., go to the site and look at the rest of the buildings and you'll see they look quite different. Man Coalescent is doing an outstanding job in the addon making! I wonder if bis is involved at all in the addon making. Do you guys think that bis will have to update vbs once ofp2 comes out?
