measure the distance blah blah blah blah ok...since I dont have ability to upload pix( cuz i'm lazy) i'll explain it here in words. goto mission editor and place a sniper(you) and an enemy soldier in front of you, facing his back at you. ok. go prone. look into optics. you'll see 2 lines, one from top to bottom, another form left to right. the intersection is where you'll most likely to get the bullet landed. if you look closely, there are 2 short horizontal lines and 2 short vertical lines near center. the vertical lines are the one for measuring distance/height. the soldier's average height is assumed at 1.7meters. so, what you do is place the soldier's entire height exactly within that 2 horizontal lines. then you'll likely to land your bullet where big lines cross. so, now aim at the soldier's chest(or some where near) and fire. you'll likely hit his chest, and he'll die from it. head shot is great, but recoil from rifle will make it really hard. it will send up the rifle a bit, causing bullet to fly high. If you want head shot, by suggestion is aim for shoulder. the bullet will fly high, and will hit face. the 2 small vertical lines seems to be the one for measuring wind factor and used when enemy is running diredtly across you. but i don't know the exact mechanics of it, so i'll skip. if you could shoot down stationary (standing) enemy soldier with one shot from about 300m, you are ok. Don't listen to movies. getting head shot looks cool, but is extremely hard!!! As always, PRACTICE PRACTICE PRACTICE!!!!!!

what Island is that? don't look like any we have.

hhmmm.....don't know how evil that prof. is....but don't be surprised if you guys get grades lower due to missing quiz

eh hemmm.... aren't we forgetting the fact that some Generals did not like Gorbachev and decided to goto Moscow with their weapons? Probably that's where BIS got idea for original campaign..A renegade commander.

don't have to worry about someone with better reflex taking game away...so many factors are needed to win.

Korea has good speed skaters The (primary) reason why 2 KORs cannot unite is not because of economy, but because of political difference. Korean War left both sides disliking and distrust each other. upon til few yrs ago, they had small armed conflict once in a while. last one was 3yrs ago when both KOR's navy ships(M2s, or something like that) got into naval battle, ending with South's victory after they sunk North's ship and killing about 20 NKOR naval soldiers. 2yrs or so b4 that, a NKOR sub was stranded while returning from infiltration mission on SKOR's east coast. 20 or so NKOR were stranded, 11 crew members decided to kill them selves since they knew they couldn't make it back to NKOR with their ability, 9 or so specialy trained commandos were able to screw the whole SKOR's east coast for 3 months or so, resulting in deaths of 2 SKOR police, 12 or so SKOR troops in cluding 1 high ranking officer, and a paratrooper. one commando eventually made it to NKOR, rest shot down. Germany did not have civil war, KOR did. So both sides hate each other. Issues of redemption for Korean war has hindered any reconciliation works. and Wobble called NKOR communist countries. WRONG! They are fascist country. They started out as a commie, but in 60's they developed their own version of fascist ideology named ju-che which means 'self-reliant'(works pretty well now that they are hungry, huh?'. recent stories from borders of NKOR and China suggest that there is some sort of captalist market system in place, despite not being recognized by the NKOR gov'ts. The reason why SKOR has such a strong skaters is that they train a lot. You won't believe how these guys train.

Thanx Avonlady!!! u r OFP's lifesaver!

I tried once using mission editor place and empty SU on island southeast of Malden(the NATO training grounds)..had A10 fly from northe east...using waypoints I made it join me, and I used menus to target SU, and then used Laser Designator to see the SU, and then ordered A10 to drop bomb...after A10 gets readym it dropped the bomb,, which sent Su about 300meters behind....

Practice, practice practice....this is not like other FPS where you get to hit whatever you point at...this is millitary simulation...bullets go differently..more realistically..... goto mission editor and set yourself some targets and start shooting....that's the best way for learning to shoot.... also do missions diligently here's how you use scopes(roughly) M21: the horizontal line on top and bottom are supposed to be height of the enemy u r aiming at...it's roughly adjusted for 1.7meters. so when you see an enemy, adjust your scope to fit the height.... then it gives you the most likely chance of heating the target with the cross section in the center. SVD Dragunov at bottom left, there's a slanted line with number, 10, 8, 6, 4,2...these are distances guage...also under that, there's a horizontal line that says 1,7..what this means is that from that horizontal line, if you try to put your targets head to same height as slanted line, you'll get the distance. once you get the distance, you can adjust your shooting elevation using echelons at center.each echelon is about 250meters distance...in other words, any target that is about 250m should use top echelon, and then another 250meter further away, use 2nd echelon and so on.. There are so many instruction manuals on net about dragunov, like Axle-online and so forth...look for it, and practice......

press '/' and type in the text you can change who you are talking to 'group, global, etc.' by pressing '<' or '>' and read manual

I had similar spec, and had 128RAM...but you need 256RAM to play w/o any hassle. I also have GForce MX200

RPG would be great against those critters...
