They should re-write their whole engine. A new one. I have the feeling this is just OFP but then they just added some "open-source free to download on the internet lighting system". I love how the campfires look when it's night... it's just a DOOM engine light placed on it or something. But I love this game.

Gotta love the fanboys in here, or buttmates or whatever you wanna call them, always defending the ARMA games... A lot of things are wack, which were possible 10 years ago. Breaking glass? Oh man thats so hard to code...

Of course I knew this was coming, the small map thing. I understand, but, things like avoiding vehicles and throwing grenades on the roof should be possible right? Or am I wrong?

Not sure, I guess its way too hard.

Damn, this is amazing. This and VopSound will be my first addons. So nice... really, I wouldn't even try ArmA 2 if modding wasn't possible. I can't wait to hear more. Keep up the great work.

Nah, I think you're wrong, but I respect your opinion. Don't get me wrong, no offense. But this game should not have been released in Germany. They paid for something that wasn't completed. Of course you have patches but that doesn't justify it, in my opinon. But anyway, what 'wonderful' effects are you talking about? I just want to see my bots shooting out of cars, I want them to take cover behind a wall and pop out and shoot. I mean, it's a kind of a sim right, so why do games like GTA IV have a cover system? Is that something only Ubisoft or Rockstar or whatever can do?

Wow damn, first time someone replied AND it was no flaming, hellll yeaaa haha. I will mos def check out ET because that cousin also asked me if that game was something cool, I told him it was pretty dope, I only played the demo online. But nice to see someone agreeing and even though DICE didn't spend time on those bots, they are better than ArmA bots, lol. Better with the things I mentioned. Things people wanna see since 2003 or something. I mean how nice would it be to have bots taking cover behind a wall, shoot, head down, shoot again instead of go prone and just lay there looking-through-the-wall-I-can-see-you-but-can't-shoot bots.

Please dear devs... could you guys please listen to the people that play your product? Just looks that what this dude did, he made screenshots and put it nicely in a post. He took some time for it. Now do the same. Instead of a graphics overhaul. No offense. Of course this is not the only one, I would like to give props to the rest of the people giving suggestions. I can drop my list in here if I want to, but that list is so long and I'm not going to do it because I'm sure that maybe 1 or 2 things will be added. Again no offense and please don't come with your 'i'M a B1G aRm4 fanb0y and 'it's sooooo hard to code' bs. I have respect for those who made this game. But this is just a updated graphics mod for ArmA. Of course there's a lot of things like the scripts/dynamics. But come on...

Lol where? The only thing that happens is change texture to glassbroke.jpeg

How wack is that. I already replied in the AI thread. I told I installed Battlefield 2 again and that I just love those bots. After all those years. Can someone please tell me what they added, when you compare this to Arma? Not just the 10 new scripting commands please.

I just wanted to drop something in here. I installed Battlefield 2 again because my cousin bought it a few days ago and I thought it would be fun to play it with him. But first I played some single player. And damn, now I'm looking at those bots and I'm surprised. After all those years. They are smart as hell and they are one of the most dopest bots I've seen. And I'm a hardcore gamer. They throw grenades when you're on the roof. They try to knife you when you're close and thats damn funny. I know that isn't that special but the way they use the knife is so nice. Also they just run like hell when you try to run em over with a vehicle. So how hard is it? That game is like 4 years old.

Yeah true, but, are they lazy? No offense or something. But how hard is it to break glass? It's been in the gaming industry for how long, I don't know, but long. At least have breaking glass for the buildings you CAN enter. It's just stupid. I can get mad angry of those little things haha.

Whatup... so, yeah, I agree with all this. Look, I don't wanna sound like a b*tch or something, not to diss the devs, but come on wow. It's 2009. Raven Shield is already oldskool, not really but you get it, and even that game has the great controls. Again not to diss them, but serious, if I was the project leader, I would not have released this game at all. I would have put this in, I would have put in a lot of things. Like the resting of Red Orchestra, someone mentioned it. It's great. I would also have made the sniping like Red Orchestra. It's all possible and I don't wanna hear things like, it's hard, not possible, gtfo. I'm sorry, but the only thing that really is great about this game are the graphics. I'm serious surprised how great it looks. But thats it. It's just Operation Flashpoint 2.5 or something. A lot of things that should have been in this game, is possible for years, so why don't put it in? I just don't get those devs... Aight.. thats my 2 cents lol

Man this account is oldskool... But anyway, I saw some peeps talkin' about 'cover nodes'... If I'm right I used those when I still was young and made my own missions for Medal of Honor: Allied Assault. And that was working great. I just don't get it why they won't put it in ArmA2? Almost every game released in the past 2 years have a cover system the AI can use. I mean there must be a way to implant this with the microAI? Something simple like, if there is a house, the AI should be able to detect a wall and a corner, take cover, shoot, lean, enemy comes from behind? AI moves to another "cover node". Simple I guess.

Oh bloody hell, yes sire. I got a warning? OMG ROFL! Ban me, our help will never come.
