  1. oh yes throw to the bin your " prehistoric" video card and buy the ultimate model in the market that will be usefull only a couple of months until the next videogame come to the stores, then you will have to buy a new one along with a new processor, who cares , life is short !


  2. but you and william1 might as well go "peddle your wares" somewhere else (like the CM forums).

    i will be in CM forums the same way that i will be in these forums because i'm not a fanboy

    It's fail and FAIL.

    are you gonna cry? if it makes you feel better i can say DR is very bad :bounce3:


  3. To say that DR's AI is better than ArmA II's AI over and over and over again should be considered trolling.

    ah OK, and then saying the opposiite is not trolling? good logic.

    Before the game's release, sure, you could say that. But post-release it's incredibly evident that the AI in DR is terrible by default, and anyone who says otherwise must be blind to the countless videos, statements, screenshots, and even to them playing the game themselves. It is

    DR is great by default, it desn't need scripting to flank you, search for cover, leaning behind trees or maneovering , it really feels like you are fighting against a threating enemy.


  4. The AI tweaks are just stupid, now instead of never hitting you, they always hit you. It seems you can only have one extreme or the other due to the way CM made their AI

    Eugh...

    how exactly is a dumbass AI that misses all his ammunition if you strafe near him better than arma ai? And then the AI guy gets an overload and starts shooting at a random direction the rest of his ammunition?

    and even like that it is clearly better , so you can imagine how it is arma ai...


  5. I loved original OFP:CWC and I played first ArmA (imho bad game)...and you know what? I enjoy OFPDR too. I don't think it's such a bad game as most of people here claim.

    Of course it's not perfect (and MP is total crap), but if you compare ArmA 1.0, ArmA II 1.0 and OFPDR 1.0, OFPDR clearly wins...That game just works, and is very well playable. It has some bugs, but nothing critical.

    Try some AI tweaks and custom missions. I haven't expected that, but some missions really have "flashpoint feeling" (especially on hardcore mode without saves).

    completely agree, not to mention than DR AI is much better than ofp or Arma AI

    more than expansive it is expensive because you have to buy a new whole computer to (barely) play it :bounce3:


  7. taking in count the huge difference of fps between arma 2 and DR i don't think DR graphics are that bad, what matters is gameplay , so sacrificing some eye candy for more playability i don't find it such bad idea (unless you have the NASA computer of course)

    nice pics, the night atmosphere in DR is just wonderful, gotta love the night missions now, and the graphics look even better by night.

This goes against EVERYTHING I had imagined this game to be. I mean wasn't it CODEMASTERS themselves who said things like, 9 hOURS to WALK across the map, 25 minutes to fly, 2 hours to drive!?!? I guess we'll NEVER KNOW because you CAN'T!

    it seems you didn't play OFP 1 too much. do you remember those official missions that failed because you reached the limits of the battlefield ? , how was the message...ah yes, you lost in enemy territory , mission failed and end of mission. One example of this type: Sp mission Battlefields.

    if the exploration is restricted in DR campaign is not game bug, is a campaign design decission.you can make your own missions and explore all territory you want.Btw in my opinion DR campaign is by far better than Arma 1 campaign, no color.


  10. i'm enjoying it as well , it's not as bad as many people claim , the battles are very inmersive and quite fun , there are many great deatils in the game that Arma 2 would want for itself , you can open doors, shot at glasses in windows, the AI shoot while going to take cover on the run ,hide behind obstacles and windows,the reload animations are superb, all this without any lag, with great view distance and no texture problems, it's the same concept with other flavour.

    Ah , and you don't have to spend a lot of money in a new computer to play it :rolleyes:
