  1. Coool! .. i remeber playing Homeworld RTS with game commander long time ago and it was sweet. I´ve got Shoot to try it with OFP and it works great! except for one thing..., whenever i shout the SQUAD commad..., the action menu ( the one you get by clicking mouse wheel ) opens ! , instead of selecting all the soldiers ... it just opens the action menu. à rechecked that the SQUAD command was asocicated to the ´ KEY , that´s exactly who it should be ... but somehow it just opens that menu. Any ideas ? thx..

    No idea. I just tried it and it doesn't react to squad command in game (it doesn't open the action menu either), but when i try it in shoot, it works! Help guys, it's one of vital commands. help.gif


  2. In PC Format may issue (latest screenshots aveliable thread, page 69) there is an interview with Marek Spanel where it says that Game 2 will be in development for two more years. That means Q2 2008., i guess (or even later).


  3. I remember that some of my friends were asking me how can i play one game for so long, like: everytime we see you play a game its the same one. They didnt play OFP so i couldnt explain it to them smile_o.gif

    Edit: OFP also affected my web browser's bookmarks: they are all OFP related! biggrin_o.gif


  4. I dont understand the meaning of those `support missions`...

    I just don`t want to have this <bonus goal thingy> in such game like: destroy AA possitions if you want to call for air support.

    Sounds kinda arcadish to me...

    Do you remember Return to Eden mission, where you had to destroy shilka in order to call air support (it wasn't obligatory, but then you had to deal with enemy armor yourself, which was very hard, if not impossible)? This is similar, i guess (hope). Of course, it doesn't only include air support. For instance, you have to attack some town and in the vicinity there's enemy base with lets say 3 T80's. If you don't destroy the base, you can take the town, but in the next mission, when enemy counterattacks, those three tanks you haven't destroyed are attacking you as well. Does this make any sence?


  5. Or even Q2? tounge2.gif

    Come on guys, this negative speculation helps nobody. Try and be optimistic.

    Almost every time someone guess/speculates on an issue we get a bunch of people who misunderstand and take it as fact. Then we spend a few days trying to calm down a few hysterical whingers.

    Q2 sounds better. wink_o.gif I know there's no point in speculating about a release date, but what can I do, you know how I feel... smile_o.gif


  6. This game is not done only for hardcore players or only for casual players, its done for everybody. The more options, the better. If you wanna play it only in 1st person, than do it! I will...


  7. It would be pretty close to RL if the medic in ArmA would just apply the bandage on your wound so you dont bleed to death, but your aiming would still be affected by your wound (your iron sights would sway a little, if you were wounded in your arm, or you couldn't run if you were wounded in your leg etc.) Dont know if it would be a good thing regarding gameplay, though...


  8. 1. What happened in Far cry when you wanted to shoot through iron sights? NOTHING!

    2. What happened in Half life when you wanted to shoot through iron sights? NOTHING!

    3. What will happen in Crysis when you'll want to shoot through iron sights? NOTHING!

    Because you couldn't. They all look great, but thats not good enough.

    And that's just a small part. When i read that aliens will disembark from big asterod and attack Earth kind of storyline, i wet my pants.

    But not because i like it. People can play what ever games they want, and that's their right. But how can OFP or ArmA be compared with Crysis? No way! We still play OFP and we'll continue to do so, not because it's graficaly superior, but because it has great gameplay, and most important, it has great supporting addon and mod making community.

    Edit: Go BIS! notworthy.gif


  9. Right! They obviously did not do their homework! ArmA was originally supposed to be game 1.5, but as things have progressed it looks like it will probably be more like game 1.9 or even game 2 with original game 2 being upgraded to game 3!

    It's all a load of ...... numbers! tounge2.gif

    LOL, all the numbers im waiting for are these two: day and month in 2006. when the game will be released... wink_o.gif


  10. A quote from Games radar: "Armed Assault is a military fetishist's fantasy. Sticky copyright problems mean creator Bohemia Interactive - developer of soldier sim Operation Flashpoint - can't call the game 'Operation Flashpoint 2', but that's exactly what it is."

    Hmm, don't they understand that this is not OFP2 (Game2), or i'm missing something? I mean, this game (ArmA) was not suposed to be called OFP2 anyway, right?


  11. Breathing/holding is more or less implemented in all of these games. After a few seconds the aiming will start shaking/moving. And when moving, the alignment of the ironsights will be messed. This can ONLY be done with a 3D ironsight view. Therefor it is the most realistic one.

    I think that iron sights should be done something like sights in COD2 (they look good and feel quite real, especially when you look through them and walk) and i hope BIS will improve the old ones cause iron sights are one of the reasons i started playing OFP.


  12. The best mode would be something like:

    2 teams - 32 vs 32 players or even more (60vs60 smile_o.gif ) and everyone controls 1 unit, 1 action (one player is shoter in vehicle, other is driver) + cti mode (money for capturing flags/towns) but without possibility to buy AI. Only human beings vs human beings.

    That would be great, but how are you gonna find that much people that would really want to play that way, to obey orders and generally to play the way it should be played, not run around and shoot at everything that moves.
