If you use the same pic of the guy that Moderators/Bis people use as default then it gives people the impression you work for Bis/the forums, thus it has the potential of confusing them or delaying them if they have a forum problem if they want to contact us. Anyways wouldn't you prefer to have a unique avatar for the "mighty 5"? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Black Op 0 Posted January 8, 2002 yeha but no good at graphic stuff :'( i thought the stolen avatar with mighty 5 on it was pretty funny it was obviously nothing to do with the forum due to the poor writing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Adviss 0 Posted January 9, 2002 hmm. back on topic id give this a 9. Graphics are good in the fact that its rendering a entire island- and the only game series that comes close is delta force, which makes opflash's reload animations look lifelike in comparison. As for gameplay, we all know the drill here. Excellent. Sounds are a mixed bag, while I love the speed-of-sound delays, explosions, and vehicle sounds, all the weapons are horribly dull. Then again, this problem was fixed with Satchels sound mod (which could use a update to fix minor problems- common Satchel, you know you wanna release it soon ). The bullet ballistics model is unmatched, as well as realism. And even more intesting is the amount to which this game has been mod'ed without the use of 3-d model/terrain editing tools. If you asked me if I thought some one could do a jungle island with vs soldiers or A snowy Kolgugev with heavy snow storms, I prolly would have thought you insane. Not to mention the excellent user made missions, and the neat scripts lying around. The only reason I didnt give this a 10 would be the fact I could see some improvements made to the basic core of the game in a sequel, which I can only dream about.

Blink Dog 0 Posted January 10, 2002 I said 9 but would have voted 9.8 if possible. The only real problem I have with the game is the scrolling menu thing, I would prefer hotkeys, say Alt funtions are vehicle, Control are mis actions and shift for others. Haveing the menu pop up is kinda annoying and is not always stable since the options often blink. But nothing comes close. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Oldi1knoby 0 Posted January 10, 2002 I give it a 9 because of the inability to join a Multi-player game. The Dev's say " It's not possible because of everything in the map that changes.." Bull..this is the Digital age...everyone has broadband. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pete 1 Posted January 10, 2002 i gave a 9......same reason as many others to give room for improvement the ame is perfect now, only a few things is badly needed....as a easier and more userfriendly way to get into a mp game, waiting a hour to get in and not be able to go anywhere meanwhile just in case they start to play while ur gone and kick you out........frustrating to say the least. and also...while i am whining.....ADD MORTARS!! hahah well....the game is near perfect..all it needs is some finetuning for mp (not netcode, but the joining a game system needs a fix) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gameplay: 9.95346/10 no comment necessary. Multiplayer: 7/10 OFP has been continiously improved in this regard since 1.10, it has gone through small overhauls in multiplayer, making it better playable there. Although there is still room for improvement, such as to simplify and add certain things, BIS knows which. Longvity: 11/10 Sorry, simply had to give it 110% there, only simulations were able to gain my interest and attention for such a period of time. Max Payne lasted not a week on my HDD, Counterstrike i erazed after 1 hour of lan play, RTCW i played through in 2 weeks and it´s already covering dust, Ghost Recon i´m still interested in, but not as much as in OFP. Overall Score: a healthy <span style='font-size:17pt;line-height:100%'>8.5</span> out of <span style='font-size:15pt;line-height:100%'>10</span>.

whisperFFW06 0 Posted January 10, 2002 "who gave 1/10 ?? why are u still here?" It is an ERROR (Espectro, I do errors even if its impossible, I'm a mistake specialist ), I would have given 9 or 10, but I hit the see result button, and it is written "Null vote", so 2 things are possible: - Null vote mean no vote, in this case I didn't vote for 1/10, please don't hunt me , no, nooooo..... - Null vote means vote for the lowest result (weird, I don't think so), in this case I voted for 1/10, but didn't want to. Anyway, I am lucky enough to have experimented NO major bug in OFP, and I'm totally addicted. - Innovative in many fields of an FPS game, so that it should not be called FPS. We should find a name for this genre. - Immersion factor is huge, very few games achieved such a level of "living the game" feeling. - The integration of all units and vehicules, even if this is not on a simulation level, adds a major plus. - Multiplayer is for me just fine, really. I didn't play online FPS before (no CS, Quake, RS...), I come from the flight simulation genre. Compared to Falcon4 (which is the benchmark for today military flightsim), multiplayer is really good. Playing coop in OFP is exactly like playing coop in F4, tons of fun, and from this point of view, no JIP or anything like that is needed. If you take OFP as a sim, multiplayer is more than ok. 10/10 Whis' Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
christophercles 0 Posted January 10, 2002 actually black and white rendered entire islands . I gave it a nine, because it an incredibly fun game to play, with a really easy to get into editor, its got extremly long playability (again thanks to the editor) and its the only game i dont regret buying on impulse just because the demo was fantastic.

Silencer 0 Posted January 11, 2002 I'll give it a 9 becuase this is exactly the game I was looking for! no more lame rambo quake3 for me!

DnA 5154 Posted January 11, 2002 I gave my beloved game a 10 ... naturally Like a lot of you said ... nothing else compared to it ... nothing even comes close! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Type0 0 Posted January 13, 2002 Had to give it a 9 I would go up to a 9.5 if I could. I cant give it a 10 I haave never given any game a 10 and probly never will. This game is as close it gets to a 10 for me. I cant down it for the Multi player, I only have a 56 k and game spy is just horrible. So, I really cant play multiplayer. I dont know if its just the netcode that makes it so hard on 56k or if there is just so much being rendered and transfered, that makes it impossible to play on slow conections. I do however think the graaffics could be improved a bit. The blocky bodies really bother me. ( Not enough to quit playing obviously) and the hands with out wrists beneath the sleaves is kinda hard on the eyes also, but I am nitpicking. The atmosphere and enviroment are incredible The tanks and vehicles look great. I just dont understand why they didnt spend a lil bit longer on the peoples bodies. Sound like everybody else has said could use a tune up but its not that bad Ghost recon is far worse. Game play, and Longevity make up for anything that I ahve complained about above. This is simply the best game I have played in a long time. I am fully addicted to OFP. This game has set the bar for all future tactical shooters. No more weenie firstperson shooters for this boy. After playing OFP no other game compares to the rush I get playing this game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sn1per 0 Posted January 14, 2002 Gotta give a 9. Would've given 9Ë but it's not possible in the poll. Ok, OF is simply a great game. It has all the elements to make the best game yet published. Can't give a perfect 10 to OF though. I feel that not enough planning was done when selecting what vehicles OF will include. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
