blackdog~ 0 Posted September 14, 2006 I'd be suprised if BIS released more content for the game after the initial release... why bother when the community will do it for you Because it would be official, the community add-ons are great and all but, if you look at it from the perspective of someone just getting into ofp/arma, it’s going to be real annoying for that group due to servers running single addons. They don’t want to be searching sites for a single tank or helicopter, making sure that it’s the right version and that it doesn’t need other addons to function. They just want to play. I couldn't agree with you more. I'd rather see the community vote on some official addon packs during the first few months the game is out... And only after the game has been released at least 2-4 months would I like to see user-made/unofficial addons being released. Edit: BTW - hmmwv - that USMC Blackhawk in BF2 is actually a USN Seahawk if I'm not mistaken. It's still wrong though =/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dm 9 Posted September 14, 2006 Just I hope not to see a U.S Army Super Cobra Fat chance of that, since the Army doesnt operate Super Cobras (or Cobras at all for that matter) I believe that was the point Oh man... I REALLY need to stop skim reading... My bad Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
5133p39 16 Posted September 14, 2006 Just I hope not to see a U.S Army Super Cobra Fat chance of that, since the Army doesnt operate Super Cobras (or Cobras at all for that matter) did i misunderstood something? i really do not intend to start any flames around here, but... how would you explain this then? http://www.marchfield.org/ah1f.htm "...On display is the AH-1F, U.S. Army S/N: 69-16416, and this aircraft is on loan from the U.S. Army." http://www.aircav.com/cobra/ahgal06/ah1g-019rs.jpg http://batfredland.free.fr/AA_AH1tCobra.jpg http://tri.army.mil/LC/CS/csa/ah1001.jpg http://www.globalxs.nl/home/c/cjdj/heli/010.jpg http://www.globalsecurity.org/militar....003.jpg http://www.globalsecurity.org/militar...._04.jpg http://www.globalsecurity.org/militar....1-5.jpg http://www.globalsecurity.org/militar....276.jpg http://www.globalsecurity.org/militar....1_a.jpg http://people.smartchat.net.au/~eyt/24c58900.jpg http://www.waffenhq.de/flugzeuge/ah-1cobra_1.jpg http://www.rob.clubkawasaki.com/jas753.jpg http://members.tripod.com/planes1/as42-36.jpg http://www.airliners.net/open.fi....=NEXTID and so on... on the net there are MANY images of U.S. Army Cobras.

dm 9 Posted September 14, 2006 As far as I know the US Army no longer operates Cobras, some National Guard units MAY still have them, but they don't get deployed outside of the States. Maybe I should have added "Any more" to my previous post... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Big Dawg KS 6 Posted September 14, 2006 Yea Cobras were phased out of the Army when Apaches showed up, but the Super Cobra came after that and has only served with the USMC. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So i felt obliged to defend the creators I know nothing about current situation, so sorry for misunderstanding. Even so, BIS made plenty of mistakes in OFP, especially with the weapons. But that's not important, what's important is that regardless of what they should and shouldn't have done, OFP was still a huge success. I expect no less with ArmA.

hmmwv 0 Posted September 14, 2006 I just said that because in the current AH-1Y shown in the screenshots, you can clearly read "United States Army", and as we already said, U.S Army doesn´t operate the cobra anymore. But even more important is the fact that the AH-1Y were developed as an improved version of the previous Whiskey, exclusively for the USMC. They won´t probably correct it, but... I can´t really understand why there´s not an Apache instead of this Game 2 Super Cobra. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dm 9 Posted September 14, 2006 Besides cross-posting in 3 threads (read the rules) this is most likely NOT the COMPLETE (or "FULL") list of vehicles which will be in ArmA. Just what is in the preview which was handed out at the Game Convention in Germany. And the pictures are terrible too... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
martinovic 0 Posted September 14, 2006 Could you make thumbnails for the pics? It's really not easy on my connection to download 82 screenshots at once. BTW those are the pics from www.armedassault.eu . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's really not easy on my connection to download 82 screenshots at once.BTW those are the pics from www.armedassault.eu . it took me about 10 mins on my 56k to show all of those screens. yous should probably get rid of the "Full units" statement in your posts and sig Spetz, since DM said that isnt all of the units.

Heatseeker 0 Posted September 15, 2006 I've been patiently waiting years for the next game and at the moment i would feel much relief if a delay was anounced . I hope this is just their traditional sense of humour, considering BIS involvement with the military it makes me believe they wouldnt need SME's to create new game content... On a slight more positive note the civilian vehicles look good, i hope a cessna or civilian transport helicopter makes it though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OFPDude 0 Posted September 15, 2006 oh please stop with all the links to those horrid jaggy non-AA screenshots, they do the game no justice. by far the best I've seen of AA is the preview video that's on the site. does anyone know of a demo will be available before release date ?
