ameriveaux 10 Posted August 9, 2009 Dear esteemed members of the BI forums. I would love to know your opinion on my matter and i thank you for your time and assistance. I am stuck at a crossroads in my operation flashpoint/armed assault/armed assault 2 career. Well mostly ArmA and ArmA 2. I tend to devote large amounts of times to this great jewel to be bestowed to us military sim enthusiasts, but i cannot chose where to go at this point. All three games offer such a great experience of simulator action but there have been several mods that came out that absolutely did it for me in terms of enchancing a believable military sim experience. Operation Flashpoint - had Dynamic Afganhistan, EECH, Thunderbird's mods - which made the game an endless and believable military experience, but in comparison with the graphics engine in ArmA/ArmA 2, is very weak in rendering power. ArmA - CoC - my absolute favorite Mod for all three games, as it gives a higher level command feature ( up to company level i believe ) that is sorely missing from vanilia OPF, ArmA 1 -2. ECS, Mapfact's DAC and Real Time editor. All of these works so much better with the more powerful graphics engine and i've made company level missions of 300 man side battles , which adds that true leadership experience on a strategic level. ArmA 2 - Just came out and new mods are in the works im sure. I dont know wither i should move on to ArmA 2 which shows loads of potential and is downright fun in its own right over its previous games. Does anyone know if their are plans to bring over these bigger mods? I hate to sound like a girl but i just dont know what to do and what to commit too! Any suggestions? Thanks so much.
