I just now read your reply to the release of the Oxygen tools for the community and I have to tell you, I am pissed.
I'm not a model maker, hell, I'm not even a skinner. I just don't have all that much time to learn to do either well. But, having been a long time fan and consumer of Tom Clancy's games, and more recently of Flashpoint, it has always been the added mods developed by the communities that support the games that has kept it fresh and new.
Your choice to not release the tools fully, to the community stinks of greed and paranoia. YOU HAVE BIT THE HAND THAT FED YOU.
After reading your reply and the opinion listed on Axle Online, I have removed Operation Flashpoint from my computer, scratched the CD and placed it in the trash.
Not only will I no longer support a game, with my wallet, that so pointedly sticks it's nose up at it's own reason for success. I will not buy any future product with your companies name related too it.
Thier are simply too many quality games available which will keep me entertained with wonderful modifications, without a need for me to be nickel and dimed to death for such lackluster tid-bits as a motorcycle!
Ghost Recon, is by far superior to OFP in look, playability, support and availalbe public tools. And I imagine that future releases will provide the same elements that intially were enjoyable in Operations Flashpoint, at the level seen in GR.
You are correct that you are not under any obligation to release the tools to the community. LIkewise, I and others are under no obligation to support this game with further purchases. I for one will not. And I suggest others to do the same.
Thank you.
