I think someone here missed the point. You paid already for a product, that is not performing to its advertised specs. Now that being said I dont care what other companies are doing, it is wrong to note the problem, and then force the customer to buy a whole new version of the game, just to get the features, you ALREADY paid for in the original. I note that BIS is more "IN TOUCH" with its customer base, and I believe that they will try to fix it without cost to previous OFP owners. Now if Ed is right, then thats great!!! I applaude BIS. However if not then thats just bad business. I hope it all works out good, if the net code is good to go, I will continue to buy anything OFP, that BIS throws out there. But if not. Well...I dont know. I love the game, but I hate gettin screwed.

Well gee thats just friggin great. I dont know what your all happy about? Your about to take it up the butt from BIS, and say thank you! right? This "reworked" Netcode shouldnt cost us a red cent, since thier product (OFP) which we have paid for already hasn't performed the way it was advertised to perform. In fact judging by the number of complaints, if this company was a utilities company, they would be under investigation for fraud! LOL. But being the damn OFP junkie that I am I will continue to play. And smile while BIS sticks it up my ass.

TEX I hate camping on a DM map. Thats an arcade map DM has no real tactical value lol. Besides I hate this stuff as much as these guys all do but they are wrong for saying it should be against the rules lol, or violate a code of game ethics ROTFLMAO!!! Cmon man wtf are you talking about IRL rules for war? Are you on crack? I happen to be in the business of RL war, and let me tell you, there are rules, more like laws. And yes they exist. However, talk to the chechnyans about rules, or the russians, Maybe a good conversation with former Nazi's might spawn some good points about rules in war. I hear the Viet Cong have some interesting ideas about the rules of war. Anyway be realistic man. The only rule that stands any merit in the heat of battle is survival! And do whatever it takes to survive the fight. Face punishment later. LMAO rules of war. lol usually written by some politician thousands of miles from the fight, and out of harms way. If you dont want the guy parking the tank close to your spawn, then kill him before he can get there. OR USE A MAP WITH A SAFEZONE!!! Here is where you can get the info on making maps with safe respawn zones. http://www.ofpeditingcenter.com/cgi-bin....5419323

Yeah man I really dont know scripting for shit. But I was told this is a script to make grass on a map, so you dont have to place it in unit by unit in the editor.

HOW ABOUT WE LEARN TO GAURD THE RESPAWN? Damn it seems like every CTF I go to has peeps guarding the flags. Well the flag is one of your vulnerabilities. The other is your respawn. Maybe if the map maker didnt use safezones, it would be wise to defend your spawn as much as you defend your flags. Lets quit whining, and think tactics! Out smart your opponents, dont out whine them.

Â Mostly because a person could be quite some distance away and activate the charge when they see the message on screen that their flag was taken. Â We classify this as cheating. Â Good mapmakers however do not populate their ammo crates with satchels for a CTF mission to avoid this kind of BS.<span id='postcolor'> ROCK good post. I agree with just about everything except your comment about sathcels. I think it is lame too that squads can do that however.... It is a smart tactic. I think the finger of shame should be pointed at map makers who insist on making a message pop up everytime someone takes the flag. It should be silent. Make the enemy (if they are gonna try to use satchels to defend it) have to actually see the flag taken. This is another Arcade type of map making which limits the potential of this game.

You guys make no sense. I will admit I hate it when I am getting spawn raped, but shame on me and my poor tactics, for letting an enemy get there. And shame on the Map makers for not creating respawns in covered locations. Quit crying about it, and fight back! I cant believe the amount of whining that goes on in OFP. I thought this game would be a better more tactics minded community, but it seems to me to be the same whiny bunch. THINK LIKE A REAL WARRIOR! this isnt a football game with rules and refs, this is a combat simulation for god sakes. In War it is a common tactic to cut off enemy suply routes, and destroy his ability to make war. THIS IS WHAT YOU CALL DESTROYING EMPTY VEHICLES! And SPAWN CAMPING. With your arguement against blowing empty vehicles you are in essence saying it leaves you with an unfair disadvantage right? Well I guess I shouldnt shoot your squad mates either right? I mean that would leave you at an unfair advantage right? Look protect your SPAWNS, PROTECT YOUR MOTOR POOLS! CAMPING is also known as Patroling, and ambush. Could also be considered DEFENSE! I mean realy you guys are getting rediculous with the crying about this stuff. Develop effective tactics to counter Camping, base/ spawn raping. I guess what it all comes down to is what kind of game you want this to be.. 1. A souped up version of all the FPS's that came before it, or 2. A UNIQUE KICK ASS COMBAT SIMULATION!!! I will take choice #2

It has come to my attention that certain individules have discovered a way to make smoke from smoke grenades not appear on their monitor. The cloudlets on/off option in the display options for the game when set to off renders smoke grenades useless against the player who has his cloudlets set to off. This is a bad oversight on BIS'S part. I hope it can be fixed, but as long as the crap is set up that way, I feel it only fair to inform all who play OFP in multiplayer, that smoke is useless, against players who take advantage of this error to gain an edge against you. BIS please fix this. I dont want to turn my cloudlets off, cause I will feel like a cheesedick playing like that. But I also dont want to be the only guy who cant see through all the smoke...ty

Your right man srry! Just got this from the VBS1 people: Sgt Kamai, Â Â Our current contract is to create a USMC-specific "add-on" to the basic VBS1. It is part of the Deployable Virtual Training Environment, which is designed to do exactly what you mentioned. We are creating avatars with the new USMC cammie uniforms, USMC small arms, AAV's, LAV's, CH-46's, CH-53's, AV-8B's, MV-22's, and many other models. The current contract only has us delivering 52 licenses. We're working with TECOM and MARCORSYSCOM in Quantico to eventually provide additional licenses. Â Â The per-license cost will be quite low (more than a game but nothing like standard training systems). We can discuss this further if you are interested. You'll be amazed at the increased quality and capabilities over OFP. Â Â By the way, I was in 3/1 in '87 - '88. Semper Fi! Michael D.

Man Racism? LMAO your too funny! I am below the poverty line there sister, so dont talk to me about the otherside. Dude you need your head examined if you think you can compare this to racism. LMAO! God your a character. Now I remember why arguing with a kid is pointless. It is not that expensive to get a decent machine running, and a broad band connection. For christ sakes, you act like it is a milion dollars. Maybe you really mean mommy and daddy wont flip the bill? Well go flip some burgers and earn some cash. I mean lmao I guess no one but rich people should be allowed to drive cars, cause cars are expensive. LMAO ROTFL too funny!!! BTW, I already put a request in for the use of VBS1 at my Real life Unit. You see I am a Marine and entitled to use VBS1 if my command will authorize it for use aboard ship.

Oh my god you crack me up, upgrading is continuous action bro. I know this and accept it. It is a hobby. QUALITY games will always be better business wise, than trying to slow progress for the technlogically slow. lol Besides man, If you can maintain your computer upgrades to stay within 6-12 months of the newest technologies, you will be fine with anything they put out game wise. Remember usually a game takes longer than that to develop. Oh and the reasons I want to exclude people from playing online are as follows: 1.people using 56k should appologize, and be banned. lol Laggin out the servers for the rest of us. Or just start a 56kers only club, and I promise not to crash thier parties lol. 2. People with piss poor machines that suck complain about lag, when there is no lag, its the crappy gear they have. 3.Last but not least, i want to use my godamn smoke, and have it work! Not be screwed cause you dont want to unfuck your gear.

long post about nothing. Look business is business, bro. I am a Machine Gunner in the United States Marine Corps. Not a businessman. I think you missed the point. There is a minimum requirement. And allthough it may give you a wider audience, making a game that can perform on older machines, it can also sacrifice quality. What makes most games a big seller? Hmm? Whats the first thing that catches a customers eye? GRAPHICS BABY!!! thats right!, and thats what the counsole game industry knows and plays well. They make ungodly amounts of money getting knuckleheads to buy their newest machines every 2-3 years, for what? GRAPHICS lol. I mean damn these guys make gobs of money selling medium end computers, with no Hard drive, which can only use thier software. Now thats genius. BUT if I can afford the gear I am using in this machine than anyone can lol, damn we make less than 2 grand a month here. So dont tell me about money. I work, save money, buy parts, and build my machine. It takes a while but in less than 12 months I went from a shitty p3 600 base model over the counter machine to my AMD1800+ homebuilt crown jewel with all the trimmings. And let me tell you, building this was cheaper than that friggin p3 was a year ago.

No. LMAO you need to rethink that bro. Here let me show you how BIS limits the game to people with higher performance machines. from the BIS site: "Recommended system requirements CPU 733 MHz or faster, 32 MB 3D card, 256 MB RAM, 800 MB HDD, CD-ROM, keyboard, mouse, sound card, DirectX 8" Recomended? lmfao thats a minimum to get it to run if you ask me. my idea of minumum sys req:" 1gig or faster, Geforce3 or ATI 8500, 512Mb RAM , HDD with enough space lmao(you better at least have a gig nowadays) 4x CD-ROM, keboard, OPTICAL mouse, AUDIGY soundcard or better EAX enabled sound card. Â Oh and direct x 8" Hmm that looks to me like a schmuck with an 8mb Graphics card might not be able to play very well.. lol

So how do you propose I can tell for sure who has cloudlets disabled, and who doesnt?

Chris man you know anything about ordanance, and what different types of nades are for? Look I will spell it out for you. 1. Fragmentation grenades are used to inflict casualties on the enemy but the range is limited to how far you can throw it. 2.Smoke is used for masking, marking, and signaling. Now that you know the differences wtf were you talking about? I would never throw a smoke at a player, that makes no sense. What do you think? I throw smokes when I am close enough to throw frags? Lmao too funny. However if I was pinned down, or needed to move through a danger area, smoke comes in handy as I can throw it, and use it as concealment from enemy observation. To make it even more easy to understand for you, cause I know this is a lot to learn lol, if you need to move, and you are getting shot at from an enemy sniper further out than you can see with your m16, you should be able to "pop" smoke, and break contact (escape under the cloud of smoke undetected). I can also use smoke to signal to friendlies where I am, so lets say if one was flying and I needed a pickup, he could spot the smoke from the air, and pick me up there. I often use smoke to conceal myself from people who gaurd flags in CTF matches. Well that would suck if I threw one out thinking they cant see me through the smoke only to find out they got the cloudlets turned off. Wouldnt it?

Chris your crazy. Lmao man you think peeps with piss poor machines are the only ones who turn cloudlets off? Besides if your machine sucks that isnt my fault. Your disavantage in MP games due to poor CP performance is your own fault. Damn man i sucked it up and put into my machine what it takes to make it run better. G3 graphice card, more ram, faster CPU, Audigy sound card ect. Like I said square your machine away and no one can lag you out with smoke. My real problem here is people with fast machines who turn off the smoke to gain unfair advantage.

He wants to screw up a game that most of us paid good money for. So in essence he is damaging our property, and interfering with the use of the game. For instance, if I bought a car, and I caught this dick rippin parts outta the engine, he should feel lucky that I only send his name and address out to all the people in the community. Cause most likely he would get a 12 guage enema.

Morbid your right some idiots want trainers to cheat in single player mode too. That is just plain stupid. I will never understand peeps who cheat in multi or single. Whats the point? damn I got no skills but I beat the campaign lol. Moronic! Like cheating at solotaire.

I cant remember the url, but I got the asses email lol. I thing rage is the one who sent me the url, cause I didnt believ him about OFP trainers existing. Boy was I naive`

This was my Email to him... "You jerk. Your ruining a great game. Get rid of that BS trainer for OFP. It is really causing problems for those of us who play good without a trainer. And it is destroying trust in the OFP leagues. Please I beg you. Delta Force CS RS, all these games get ruined and become no fun because of garbage like this! Please. !!!!!"

Thanks ed, thats where I am getting all my upgrades! Hopefully that will keep the error messages away!
