Between the lines

Recommended Posts

I went down to the local games store yesterday and on there shelf was a new expansion pack for OFP.

It's called Between The Lines and is made by XMP. It's an unoffical expansion pack.

I keep fairly upto date with OFP stuff but I haven't seen this mentioned on any OFP website or on this forum.

It actualy has three seperate campains on it.

Has everybody else heard about this and this is just me living in my own litttle world??

I wouldn`t buy it. In every game magazine here in Germany they wrote that this "Between the lines"-addon is crap. Got very bad ratings, because it mostly consists of loose missions. We have to keep waiting for other official missions sad.gif

Because these are normally the best.

That is a very interesting site you have there. I just learnt all kinds of things.

I would like to add that although the expasion pack has it's faults I would say it was worth the 15 quid I paid for it.

Although I think a new patch fixing some of the more obvious typo's and breifing mistakes is in order. Very surprised that they wearn't fixed in the first patch.

My fav being when you complete one objective you are given the message "test test test"

Certainly aren't loose missions. The main campaign "Between The Lines" has a strong story line. Gets you very involved.

Where as the other two campaings are more action and less story.

confused.gif Sorry, my mistake. My magazines gave only a few lines of description and ratings around 35%. They didn`t mention a whole campaign, so I thought of it as a kind of mission pack.

But keep informing us about this addon. Maybe that prevents us from more mistakes like mine.

This is off the subject but I did not want to post a new thread.

I have a friend who is interested in OPFP. I am downloading the Single-Player Demo. First of all, it was an absolute pain in the rear end to download this demo. I had to effing register with Gamespy and had to maneuver through all sorts of advertisement crap and casino windows. I threw a chair across the room.

Does anyone know what mission is in the Demo?

I have been playing it

Cost me 10 UK pounds

Games are ok but not up to BIS Production standards

But for the price it is cheaper than downloading over the internet on a 56k modem

What has more bandwidth

A 5 mbit optical cable backbone into a national gateway

or

A truckload of CDs doing 60mph down the motorway

Does anyone know if it's possible within the structure of the game to do a true co-op campaign, like one that follows the same squad through a whole campaign? If so, I think it would be awesome...
