Cloney 0 Posted March 29, 2002 In the first campaign mission (Flashpoint is what its called), the soldier infront of you is talking to the soldier on your right, if you look at the soldier on your right he looks all stoned... Anyone notice that? I thought drugs weren't a problem in the army 1985? I also notice that the soldiers are pretty childish in the way they act, they insult each other and such. But when they all die, I feel heartbroken.. The guy who is always calling everyone meat head acts like he is still in freshman year in high school. The other guy just looks stoned off his ass. The funny part is that the stoner is a medic in the next mission and he starts talking about his gun. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PitViper 0 Posted March 29, 2002 Remember, privates are usually between 17-19 so such behavior is not uncommon, especially when trying to pass the time. I also, think its personalizes and adds some character to the soldiers so that you do in fact become effected when you realize they are all dead. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

madmike 0 Posted March 29, 2002 I love the cutscene before you get to play the black tankman. He drives all over those tents Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DodgeME 0 Posted March 29, 2002 Is quite nice. Also there is fear shown in cutscenes when they wanna kick ass but they are afraid for their lives. There is a lot more character development in the US campain than the Russian ones. Still it has a good story but u don't get attacked with them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ether Dragon 0 Posted March 29, 2002 Wow, you guys are saying you actually like the characters? I've found them to be pretty annoying so far. The sergeant has been the worst so far. Whenever he talks, the only thing I can visualize is someone reading straight from a cue card. His tone of voice, especially, has absolutely nothing to do with the situation. My guess is that he read the cue cards without a clue as to the storyline. "Okay, here's your motivation: you're a sergeant who likes to yell a lot. Now read this line..." What's really annoyed me has been the AI for them. In the mission where you drive the 5-ton and follow the sergeant, I spent about five minutes watching him spin his tires against a road sign. I finally gave up and drove off without him, and only after that did he finally free himself and catch up. Later on, I got in the back of the 5-ton and let the AI drive...straight into a house. Get this - then it managed to squeeze itself inbetween two houses, with it's front against one, and it's rear against another. What ensued hasn't been seen since Austin Powers attempted to turn the golf-cart around in the corridor of Dr. Evil's lair. Next stop, I was ordered into the back of another 5-ton along with the rest of my unit, pulling out after checking on the Lieutenant. We all clambered in, except for one guy with two injured legs. He low crawled up to the truck...and sat there. Every so often the medic would try to heal him from inside the 5-ton, but it wouldn't work. After a lot more time wasted, I finally climbed out, thinking I might just shoot the guy and put him out of my misery. He must have read my mind, because the moment I got out, he climbed right up in the truck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
advocatexxx 0 Posted March 29, 2002 Yup the AI are pretty bad drivers. You know at one point I thought that increasing their skill level in the editor would improve their driving skills ? Hahaha, what on Earth was I thinking. These guys got their driver's license in the great state of New York. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He was driving very nice. Triggers were just messed up iin your mission. If you would restart it everything would be ok. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Placebo 29 Posted March 29, 2002 Same here, never had any problems as drastic as that, occasionally a driver will bump something but that's much better than I do Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
madmike 0 Posted March 29, 2002 Same here, Ive never had any problems. The only AI driving problem I have is commanding the tank driver to go forward in a striaght line. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DodgeME 0 Posted March 29, 2002 AI drivers are not crap they are just too slow. The hit the brake in each turn, always follow the road etc. Despite of that though they rarely crush when moving too fast... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WKK Gimbal 0 Posted March 30, 2002 There's a couple of lines that makes my toes curl up under my feet: "She's all ready for you, sir. Nice and warm, the way you like her." - Helicopter pad dude "SHE'S READY TO BLOW." - Black Op "I've been keeping an eye on you, Sergeant. And I've liked what I've seen." - Colonel Blake to Armstrong... yuk. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SpaceAlex 0 Posted March 30, 2002 I love a few funny radio messages from Gastavski: "another bunch of bad guys bites the dust. am i good, or am i good." "We're still waiting for three.

Mask 0 Posted March 30, 2002 Yeah I also like this Gastovski - Black Ops guy. Just before you go on this mission they talk with the Sergant about destroing the russian armored squad. That's a really cool part. G.- Let's say, three man. Three man against the whole armored squad? S.- Three of our finest man! G.- And that would be......us? S.- I couldn't trust anyone else. G.- Great! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

InRange 1 Posted March 30, 2002 Well, the voice acting didn't annoy me so it was pretty allright. But the thing about the AI drivers being really careful to stay on the road....I once rammed Sgt. Berghof with my 5t truck when he braked all of a sudden. I got out and noticed he was dead. I almost wet my pants laughing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
