rksl-rock 1301 Posted March 24, 2010 Lol, don't be so sensitive! I'm just taking the piss, it's a joke. Ah ok... I just thought that since you were rolling out the sarcasm for both George and myself something must be wrong. Must just be your 'tone' :eek: :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LondonLad 13 Posted March 24, 2010 Why so snippy Chris? I don't think he's fully recovered from the w/end of drinking due to a mini-squad meet that occurred this past Saturday gone ;) :D *Going back on-topic - I do hope that some form of Falklands Island map appears at some point :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cbfasi 4 Posted April 1, 2010 Some news. A 1:1 test of East Falklands was interesting, although the distance took some getting used to. For MP purposes its just far too big.. for SP its a great air mission map, and this is with a basic texture set etc, no buildings. I will be carrying out other trials too on other issues but its not a dead idea, but its going to be a slow one Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eggbeast 3684 Posted April 5, 2010 I was gonna chip in that you dont need west falkland but you already saw that! Goose Green and Darwin, San Carlos, Tumbledown, Longdon and Stanley are all thats needed on East Flakland. some interesting missions will be: to take out the napalm stores at Goose Green, to nail the air spotters and comms at Top Malo house, to take the mortars and mgs nests out at Wireless Ridge etc. Simple stuff really. The FFAA mod spanish weapon crate is perfect - it has some really nice FN's which i like using in evolution - they have scoped and unscoped versions, which have good stoppingpower, and remind me a lot of the UK FN SLR. I haven't seen a sterling anywhere, but the UKF mod has plenty of gimpies etc. All we need is a gazelle, sea-king, a super etendard and mirage. all the other weapons, harriers, and landrovers and stuff are available (including the aim9x which the yanks kindly left on the beach at ascension island) except maybe a milan, blowpipe and rapier lol would love to see this mod developed...

cbfasi 4 Posted April 8, 2010 Be advised that a mod has already been done, but for OFP, this means those of us that worked on the old OPF mod are well aware of what would be ideal. But also be aware that there is no mod here, its likely to just be the island... I already lost over 5 years working on the OFP mod Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eggbeast 3684 Posted April 8, 2010 (edited) yeah im only suggesting missions cos I studied the falklands battles as part of RN Defence Studies and I used to be trained by a bootie who fought at goose green. Would be good to use actual scenarios rather than say making an evolution on it... not sure how many people know, but the existenceof napalm at GG was thereason it was attacked in the way that it was. ifthe argies had dropped this on thefleet instead of bombs and exocets, the whole task force would have gone given the flammable paint problem...

cbfasi 4 Posted April 8, 2010 It was the reason, but they also found that napalm to be in rather poor condition after they took Goose Green. There some great small and large scale actions in the 1982 Falklands War, and mostly infantry based. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Defunkt 431 Posted April 12, 2010 To "snap your hand off" is a figure of speech meaning "I'd be first in line", you seem to have taken in literally. Down tiger. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ravenholme 50 Posted April 12, 2010 It would be very interesting to see a Falklands map in ArmA II - I have a new, personal interest in this because my older sister, whom is a Marine Biologist, is leaving for the Falklands next month to become one of their Fisheries Observers.
