EiZei 0 Posted May 19, 2005 So does AA have the same graphics as the Xbox version?Because if you compare them i don,t see much diffrence. AA site is up BTW... (Im a little behind im sorry, sorry for bad english 2) Being an xbox owner I can tell you that very likely viewdistance is better on pc and textures will surely be prettier.

kavoven 4 Posted May 19, 2005 Look at these beautiful shadows on the faces of the soldiers Ah, this is better then christmas and eastern on one day Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Schoeler 0 Posted May 19, 2005 I noticed the soldiers have improved patrolling animations and are making more intelligent use of cover as well. Also, the models are much more detailed. Great work BIS! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LtUlrich 0 Posted May 19, 2005 Where did you notice these things Schoeler? BTW, regarding the name 'Armed Assault'... Codemasters will be pissed because we will simply continue to refer to it as OFP. We're at 1.96 now, so this will technically be OFP build 2. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
swatdog 0 Posted May 19, 2005 The pictures look damn near VBS 1 quality!! Fantastic BIS, I LOVE YOU! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Albert Schweitzer 10 Posted May 19, 2005 WoW I just dreamed on creating a new multiplayer multi-layer poly polygon face of my Kofi Annan for AA! It surely will look great! BTW: Can we agree to not cutting it down to AA. People might confuse it with americas Army Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LtUlrich 0 Posted May 19, 2005 Agreed, AA will heretofore refer to America's Army. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kavoven 4 Posted May 19, 2005 BTW: Can we agree to not cutting it down to AA. People might confuse it with americas Army Agreed So, how do we call it? OFP 1.5 ? OFP:AA ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rommel 2 Posted May 19, 2005 See this is similar to my expectations of OFP2 (ArmedAssault). If AA is this good than I still cant imagine how much better OFP2 will be................................................... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LtUlrich 0 Posted May 19, 2005 Well, how do you refer to old school, non-resistance OFP? 1.46, right? We'll have a version number soon enough. In the meantime, the term 'OFP' simply means the latest version. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Acecombat 0 Posted May 19, 2005 Americas Army , to hell with that from now on AA shall be remembered in history as Armed Assault . Its an expansion anyway so doesnt matter , we will call it OFP : AA. If you cant beat'em join'em we'll just take this acronym from them , muhahaha Man i cant wait for AA now , btw does anyone know how far back OFP2 has been thrown now? 2007/08?

RUKH 0 Posted May 19, 2005 Man, it´s been a while since i posted here but it´s been a crazy couple of days filled with surprises!! Thanks BIS for the effort and i hope the new engine will give us new blood and rejuvenation. Looking great!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Acecombat 0 Posted May 19, 2005 Hmm one question bugs me is AA an expansion (meaning requires OFP-R) or is it standalone? From the press release: ....Armed Assault will reacquaint gamers... What does that mean? They didnt say whether it was an expansion pack or not ? All this is i guess from that Codies fallout , damn complications. If its a new game would that mean bye bye old OFP folder. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
