I know it's a bit early but what would you all like to see in ofp2? Personally I would like bigger towns and buildings that you could fight through. Not just a few boxes that you jerk around awkwardly in. Also a more modern context (yes i know IL is coming) but I believe that most people want more modern weapons and equipment. Thermal imaging would be cool for the helicopters, imagine directing fire teams in the woods. Islands as large as the ones in OFP but on the same map so you could fly fighter jets on missions across islands and a greater view distance and deformable terrain and ... I could go on but I'm sure you all have a wish list.

Aha. Cheers Tracy.

aaahh got it

Someone please pm me I have tried for hours now and I'm getting fed up. Can't find the briefcase anywhere.

And as for "the most intense jungle environments ever seen in a videogame" Judging by the screenshots you'd be lucky to see your hand in front of your face due to the most intense fog ever seen in a videogame. I hope that sniper's got a thermal scope.

At least IGI2 will be quite good (hopefully). Whereas Andy McNabb's Team SAS looks dire.

Having just ridden the bike, it's great btw. Apart from the sound which is like marbles rattling around in a can. I wondered if anyone is making some bike mods. A Fireblade would be cool or a 750 Ninja. We could have illegal road races and getting caught by the police. Oh I guess someone needs to build a jail incase I get caught. And a pub so we can all swap stories after the race. Don't forget Drinking and driving costs lives!!

I don't know if it's possible but could someone make realistic looking NVGs like the ones on VBS1. They would look much better than the cardboard box and yoghurt pot effect ones we have in the game.

The official Flashpoint website may be a good start Look in the downloads section.

If the chopper is flying to a specific waypoint to pick your men up do the following. 1. Put an invisible H at the waypoint you want your men picked up. It can be a move waypoint it doesn't matter. 2. On the choppers flightpath just before the "h" put a trigger (big enough so that the chopper flys through it 75x100 maybe) group the trigger with the chopper and put in the init field of the trigger - chopper LAND "get in" - this will make the chopper land with its rotors still turning for you to get in. If you want the rotors to stop it should be - chopper LAND "land". 3. Make a switch trigger and synchronise this with the waypoint where you are picked up and make the condition -mygroup in chopper. Then the chopper will fly in, land and wait for you to board. Once you are all on board it will fly off.

Mines: Yep, same here (and probably for everyone) just rpg them and run. Hanging Yep, although not for so long. Probably 5 secs. But I can live with that.

Well looky here

Yes

VBS1 will not be released to the public and I don't think that you really want it. What you want is a version of OFP set in a modern context (if not slightly future - a la RS). This as Denior said is possible with all the modders out there. I do think that we will get a modern OFP eventually. BIS would have to be stupid to ignore the wishes of so many of us (and I don't think they are). VBS1 is a training tool for the military it offers them what they need to enact and dissect their manouvers. What we would like is a realistic game. This may or may not be IL but it will come. And the sooner the better.

Apart from the official trailer they had an e3 video on RsZone which was footage of the actual ingame stuff. Someone videoed the monitor whilst it was being demonstrated. It lasts about 13 mins and it looks incredible. The flashbangs, teargas and thermal imaging are *lost for words* Go have a look (if you've not seen it).

I know that Raven Shield is going to be amazing but have you also seen the Hidden and Dangerous 2 movie. Look here WooHoo.

Oh I see. Where are all the cinematics that play in the background while the menu is displayed? I understand now sorry. I don't know but I know a man who does - Kegetys or one of the other retexured island makers as both his Winter Kolgujev and the Jungle Everon (can't remember who made that) have their own cut scenes. If he drops by maybe he'll tell you.

ON the mission First Strike my 2 and 3 control their own little teams. I've not seen this before and could in theory allow you to control (144 units? 12 of your controllable units contolling 11 units each?) or at least more than 12 surely. a) Am I right? b) How is this done?

It's most frustrating you are completely out of control while the AI seem to be ok. Especially the ones firing at you.

If you mean: Which island is the cinematic in the menu set on - it's desert island. If you mean: Something else then I don't know
