BLSmith2112 0 Posted March 1, 2007 Update: Thread = Dead. Got my topic. I appreciate it guys, you gave me the ideas I needed to get my head working! Quote[/b] ]Doing the report on MAD: Magnetic Acoustic Device (HPV Technologies), also described as: Laser Sound. Almost a week ago I said thanks! I got my topic and have already started writing it. I guess I'll edit the main post so yall know for sure. Unless a mod could be a dear and lock this ================================= I'm in college and I'm supposed to start a research paper on something. Anything really. It's supposed to be 20 pages long, and contain at least 10 sources. I love OFP/ArmA & their scripting (even though I only understand the basics), but there's no books on the matter (I really wish there was!.. So I guess I can't do it about the game. Whats an interesting topic that one could write about? (Whose references are in librarys, etc). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Turkmenbashi 0 Posted March 1, 2007 Any war or conflict you're interested in is always a good one. Will be well referenced. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ironsight 1 Posted March 1, 2007 For what subject is it? If you want something OFP related, try military simulators, did that before as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sc@tterbrain 0 Posted March 2, 2007 Start with the new laser guided JDAM. Saw something on it on that "Futureweapons" show. Now instead of having GPS and Laser guided weapons seperately...they can be either or. Then trace back to say the "The bombing of Guernica" in 1937. Call it a history of tactical bombing or something. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

walker 0 Posted March 7, 2007 Hi all If you look here there is a piece of research that needs doing. http://www.flashpoint1985.com/cgi-bin....9;st=30 I have even set out a basic framework for the research. Of course I think it is more a masters thesis level but it could be broken up and done by a number of students. It would be sensible to ask your tutor before pursuing it and you might be required to generalise your research subject. You would also need to approach BIS or 505. Kind Regards walker Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CG Man 0 Posted March 8, 2007 Concept weapons or future weapons.  Theirs rail guns in testing in the US  also an electrical beam thing to set off roadside bombs and suiside bombers a nice thing to have mounted on your hummer. This weapon in theory could be mounted on fighters so they can direct lighting from thunder clouds to targets.Son of Starwars  theirs lots. What about the History of combat games my first was Combat on the Atari 2600  it had a 1.19mhz Cpu and this game had 2 colours  nice comparison to ArmA things have moved on a bit.
