What will do to your OFP when you have ArmA

[Bordoy 0]

Like the title says..........

I currently own:

OFP: Cold War Crisis

OFP: Gold Upgrade w/ Red Hammer

OFP: Resistance

OFP: GOTY

Now when I get ArmA, I will not throw these away or chuck them in the attic. These will stay with the rest of my playing games and not the old ones. I know one or two will try and make a few quid by selling them to a shop for Å2 or something, but I'm keeping mine as memoribilia (sp?), though they may see the CD Drive again after I bought ArmA.

[NeMeSiS 11]

I'll probably put them at some random place and forget where they are when i want to play OFP again...

[Guest Ti0n3r]

I will frame them, put them on the wall and never touch them again.

[cozza 24]

I'll probly put them on the shelf as a merobilia Just in case i want to play clasic flashpoint

[berghoff 11]

They are already on my shelf along with some other good games .

I'll keep mine in my game pile... Im sure I'll end up playing it again with my friends who will be to cheap to buy ArmA.

[HitmanFF 6]

I'll use them as coasters, because I'll be very thrilled with Armed Assault

Fine , i will throw them inside an arc and burry them in the backyard, then i will make a detailed map with it marked has an x, good enough ?

[ziiip 1]

I'll leave them where they are right now(in a shelf). Since I've formatted my hard drive, there's no need of uninstalling it, but I'll dowload again the good addons.

heatseeker, m8, I just said I`m a nostalgic fool too

And It`s mainly because of your post

[schmerzbringer 0]

put them to my place of honour

[akhen 0]

I will probably just leave it on my desk. Behind some glass with alarmtriggers

[chipper 0]

I'll burn it.

[Baz 0]

I'll try to give my OFP away to a hot girl as an excuse to have a sleep-over with me

[CherokeeJack 0]

Yeahhhhhh...good luck with that.

As for me, I will give my discs a place of honor in my "Hall of Fame" collection of games that were boss, but have gone past their prime. It shall join the distinguished ranks of Terra Nova, Heretic, C&C 1, Red Alert 1, and many other wonderful titles.

[DELTA_STO 0]

I will put them in my safe along with the 3 DVDs of addons.

then I will work at converting STRIKE ISLAND for the new game.

[Heatseeker 0]

Hehe, it will make a nice souvenier never to be instaled in my PC again .

that is the real question though, OPFR might be around for a while longer .

Im not getting my hopes up of ArmA coming out any time soon. Lets look at the facts shall we?

1. BIS refuse to let their loyal followers know any information about a release date or how far along the road they are from completing the game.

2. Even if they were ready to release the game tomorrow, they do not have a publisher.

3. I personally believe that this game is a long way off - Why do I believe this? Well for starters theres only 4 screenshots of the game on their official website. The ArmA website is basic to say the least - hardly any info or screenshots.

4. Having bought OFP: Elite for the XBox last week I am very worried about what they will do with any future OFP related games. It seems that they are more interested in adding moving grass than getting things right like clear graphics and nice looking soldiers.

5. BIS need to get in some new programmers to give the game a facelift. Its obvious that BIS are a pretty small outfit run by 2 brothers. Compare OFP with BF2 and theres no competition in the graphics and engine stakes. I know that some people will say that Im trying to compare a 4 year old game with the latest technology, but what about OFP: Elite? Some may say that the XBox wouldnt have the power to run OFP anyway, but what about other games like Splinter Cell and Doom 3 which use better graphics, also what about the new BF2 game for the XBox?

Granted, BF2 doesnt have quite the same playability as OFP, but do you seriously believe that OFP has to look so crap with todays PC technology? What about ragdoll physics, real weather conditions and less bugs?

I was surprised at how good BF2 was straight out of the box - no building clipping or odd things that plagued OFP on release that needed a fix (and in most cases still arent fixed).

I believe that if BIS dont get a publisher soon or release ArmA within the next quarter that they will lose the vast majority of people interested in their game. I recently reinstalled OFP to my PC and realise that its a really old and tired looking game now. Why did BIS take so long to start working on a sequel? 4 years is an awful long time to expect fans of the game to wait (and are still waiting) for a new game.

As many of you know, I ran the TNT league for 2 years and had 100% faith in the greatness of this game for 4 years. But over the past year I have lost all faith to be honest because of the way that BIS has handled the cheats (or should I say that they havent actually done anything to stop them?) and how they have simply abandoned the game and basically sent out a message to the community to 'get on with it'. Some people will say that what do I expect for a 4 year old game, but it was BIS who chose to take that long to work on an update.

Its obvious that Codemasters also had the same worries otherwise they wouldnt have pulled out as publisher.
