thats a fake, look at his left food. He deliberately fell! Â

okay it looks "okay" but what I find especially impressive is the great performance even at highest settings AND also the realistic movements of the trees.. fantasy forest is not bad!

maybe the required purification process of the water would require more space than the tanks!

There is not only these 2 types. Germany and greece are using subs with fuel cells. 212A / 214 e.g. the U31 has an air-independent propulsion system using a silent hydrogen/oxygen fuel cell system which not only makes the submarine more difficult to detect, but also increases the time it can stay submerged. The new submarine class 212a or the advanced model 214 developed by HDW is characterized by an air-independent propulsion system using the hydrogen fuel cell. The german HDW is thus the first shipyard in the world to offer a fuel cell propulsion system ready for series production. The Siemens proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cell plant, which produces electrical energy from oxygen and hydrogen, permits the new class of submarines to cruise under water for weeks without surfacing. Conventional diesel-electric submarines have used up their battery power after about two days cruising under water. In addition, the fuel cell makes no noise and produces no give-away exhaust heat. The factors help to make the submarine virtually undetectable. The propulsion system combines a conventional system consisting of a diesel generator with a lead acid battery, and an air-independent propulsion (AIP) system, used for silent slow cruising, with a fuel cell equipped with oxygen and hydrogen storage. The system consists of nine PEM (polymer electrolyte membrane) fuel cells, providing between 30 and 50kW each. For higher speeds, connection is made to the high-performance lead acid battery. An MTU 16 V- 396 diesel engine powers the generator for charging the battery installed on the lower of the two decks at the forward section of the submarine. The diesel generator plant is mounted on a swinging deck platform with double elastic mounts for noise and vibration isolation. The propeller motor is directly coupled to the seven-bladed screwback propeller.

awesome... Bals you need to take more pictures.. I would even send you a camera if yours screws up!

Nothing to be proud about!

tunnel-maps. I thought the year 2004 and OFP would have ended that chapter. Halflife2 is too linear as well and if this engine is not capable to give more space then throw it in the bin!

I agree.. It feels more like a opportunity for the big boys to give each other some awards. Far Cry wasn't even nominated and still it propably beats Doom3 and HL2. But I guess crytek needs to wait for their next release to be invited to the party. No damn rookies plz especially if they compete with the most hyped games let me guess, you went for RBR!

shilka in OFP is for beginners! No tactics required!

This list sais as much about quality as the Oscar! Nothing!

well it wasnt a good year but on the other hand it wasnt soooo bad either.. would at least been worth to try the demo of one or the other!

Shadow.. you all had time enough during the last 3 days to say which games deserve to be in that list. I deleted Doom3 by request from a forum member! Â

Shut up and vote! Â You had the chance yesterday to say that Vampire should be in the list.. you cant complain now!

I came up with the idea to create a thread on Best PC Games 2004 corresponding to OFP-Fan tastes`. But unfortunately I do not seem to recall all the essential games. And on the other hand I dont know which you people in the US played in contrast to us. So please check the list, say which ones I could delete or need to add.. I will post the poll then once we are all happy with the array of games. You can reply untill Wednesday. Medal of Honour Pacific Assault Rome Total War Hitman 3 Panzers Far Cry Richard Burns Ralley Pro Evolution soccer Chronicles of the Riddick Pirates Half Life 2

No, the first thread was about which games should appear in the poll. I announced that Wednesday (today) we gonna close the thread and vote in another thread which of the selected games has been the best in 2004

please lock the "upcoming poll" thread. Thank you!

-can be locked -

guess so.. it has a great german community but that was about it. And after the last patch I can no longer enter buildings!

great.. I deleted that one from the list ... please choose one that could be deleted instead!

I thought about buying the game that is gonna win tomorrow poll! why not? in the end it is an OFP-FAN gamers award

whats the thrill in pirates?

MOHPA has limitations.. but the athmosphere (if your computer can do full settings) is realy movie-like and they were able to export it into Multiplayer too! I intend to delete Warhammer 40k Thief 3 Splinter Cell Pandora Star Wars Battlefront Chronicles of the Riddick Joint Operations What do you think.. this would leave us with -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Medal of Honour Pacific Assault Rome Total War Hitman 3 Panzers Far Cry Richard Burns Ralley Pro Evolution soccer Sacred Pirates Half Life 2 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
