Well I know Seventh definitely made the music, not sure if BIS composed it though?

Will those of you who are bashing OFP2 just try and remember that BIS have been making there game since before 2001. You guys have such a short memory. Remember the ArmA beta test we all paid for.

I commend CM for at least giving us hope that there might just be an equal to ArmAII or pray to god it just might be better. CM have huge resourses at there disposal and this may just be what we've all been looking for since the end of flashpoint.

BIS have pretty much just given us a graphical upgrade with every 'new' game, instead of the real ballistics, destruction models and penetration values that we've all been waiting for. For gods sake our own community had to make the tracers and what's the first thing that gets improved for a BIS game, the sounds. The exact same bugs that were in the very first version of flashpoint were in ArmA. How many of you play with vanilla ArmA. I bet my mortgage that no one plays vanilla ArmA in SP.

I mean for the nonvocal stuff, 7th does (or used to) have a website for that, but I think the rest was composed by BIS in manner of the OFP remix in Arma.

I do.

That is quite disturbing...

[-Snafu- 79]

Why?

I also sometimes play ArmA without mods.

Pretty sure we have rules about hotlinking images, yet I just had to edit a bunch of pie chart pics, don't give me a reason to close this thread!

...How many of you play with vanilla ArmA. I bet my mortgage that no one plays vanilla ArmA in SP.

I also play ArmA often without any mods.

I think it's time to settle your bet. How much is your mortgage? I hope it's enough for 3 of us.

Yes indeed! It sounds like your itchy finger is hovering over the button!

Well i must say, i am really liking the fresh approach that OFP has over Arma 2, the performance of that little Demo build wasn't that bad, i mean for a demo build.

Hmm, I don't think they will base their sales on 5 people

Awww, FFS, if you want to make a BI whinebashing, at the very least, state some valid reasons.

Even though, yes, the automatic "OFP2 is poo"-mantra by some here is rather bad, going the opposite way isn't better. In fact, it's behaving exactly the same.

Guys, just lean back, have a look at the FINISHED producs, when they are done - and be pleased that this time you might actually have a choice! Competition generally is quite healthy, so I'm looking forward to AT LEAST one good game (and I couldn't care less if its called OFP2 or ArmA2). Which one will be more beautifull/awesome/realistic should only be judged once they are finished. Judging from screenshots, videos, or renders - especially as long as neither of the two has gone gold - is just plain stupid.

I find it hard to believe that you 5 have not got one single addon or replacment file in your ArmA directory. If you never use mods you wouldn't need to come on these forums.

@Whisper, yes that post turned into a bit of a bash, which was originally unintended, but as this is the OFP2 thread i just got a bit tired of members knocking everything CM have shown.

Err, what? Of I course I have mods installed. Also, People can come on these forums to just discuss ArmA, download missions etc. Let me show your original statement:

[max power 21]

I also play vanilla ArmA occasionally.

[.kju 3245]

pretty much whole PvP league community plays without addons.

especially in leagues itself, yet also in public play.

it has changed a bit now with ArmA being dead from the start..

The end of my Target line for my shortcut. Obviously that isn't total proof but i'm kind of too lazy to go take pictures of every unit menu in the mission editor to prove it furthur to you. Besides im a trustworthy guy.

Reasons I come on these forums:

Look at ArmA Photography

Read random topics I find interesting

Help people if I can

Get ArmA II updates

Get OFP II updates (why I was in this topic)

Carrier Command looks interesting

I used to have some addons and sound replacements but I don't play with them anymore because I started playing MP. I changed my Target for my shortcut and now use that to play SP as well. In case you were wondering last time I played ArmA was yesterday.

I don't have anything against OFP II or anything either just for the record. I find that ArmA II will probably cater more to my liking though. Plus I also trust BI to make a good game more than I do CM. OFP II does have some nice graphics but so does ArmA and I know what to expect from ArmA so im more so fighting for ArmA II because of that. I'll probably end up buying both eventually.

[opteryx 1562]

A lot of people play 'nilla ArmA, it's pretty much the only way you can log on to a decent public MP server without getting booted.

[Baff1 0]

I tried to play the SP of ArmA, but didn't make it.

I'm very surprised to hear that other people here regulary do.

Very.

Unbelieving even.

I play it co-op LAN or I mess about with the mission editor.

I have some addons. (Missons and units).

[Pathy 0]

Oh well, you'll have to live with it, wont you.

Make that a +6 btw. Same argument could be applied to OFP i suppose "how many play/ed vanilla OFP". Doesn't mean OFP is a bad game because people wanted to use other countries units, etc. does it now?
