    Well, I've just put in every combination I could think of, even really obscure ones, and still nothing. I'm out of ideas, so if anyone knows them already, please send me a PM. :p Edit: DragonBaron sent them to me. Thanks dude!

    It's not for just "true OFP fans", it's for anyone who takes the time to work out the details for themselves. It's more of a funny game than anything that we've played for years. But there's always one that has to come and stomp on the sandcastle, isn't there? :(
  3. Name one that did all of them better than OA.
  4. A 10 year old OFP surpasses the current state of Red River in many aspects. Something else to think about. Seems Codemasters are quite content with being extremely behind the times. :rolleyes:
  5. First, it's patch 1.54, and second, did you not just contradict yourself? :confused: But if you're happy with the current 64x64 textures and the ridiculously compressed audio, then suit yourself...

    Hey Vicarious! Glad you liked it! I can only hope to maintain the quality for the rest of the campaign. :D In regards to your comment: Edit: Here's another in-game promo for you guys from the campaign:
  7. Zipper5

    Arma 2 CO DX9 or DX11

    Arma 2 is DirectX 9 in it's current state.
  8. Zipper5

    VF FPS Saver (VFFPSS)

    One should do research on how to enable/disable mods before he does so. This should help.
  9. I wouldn't have cared at all about the game, would have just let it come and go, and I wouldn't have bought it. I decided to stop buying CM products after what they did with DR.

    The username is that good old OFP villain, and the password is his nickname. If you want the original fun page, see this. ;)

    Upon request from Cole in this situation: BIS all day long. :D

    Don't miss this one either: :D

    Here's a hint for the Client page: The old BIS fun page. ;) And yes, I stole your find, Cole. :cool: Edit: Crap, you got it from Sanctuary. xD
  14. I recognize it's not a simulator. What I find hard to accept is the possibility that it lacks conventional AI entirely, fakes lap times, and has many bugs that will probably not get fixed given their current reputation in that field. The sales of F1 2010 have passed those of HALO: Reach, so I doubt they see any need for change, or any need to implement long-term support for the game. They probably view it best to get on with F1 2011. :rolleyes:
  15. Of course there's going to be an anti-Codemasters vibe on here after Dragon Rising. What else were you expecting? Many fans of the original OFP won't just welcome a game that completely goes against the reputation the original worked hard for, including myself. But as I've said before, that's only a small aspect of my disliking of CM. It's much more an issue of morality than of the ruining of a brand's reputation. It simply came to my attention because both issues came wrapped in one package. I won't bother repeating myself again... Before you look into buying RR, I recommend you consult this before-hand, especially if you didn't get DR because of its limitations.
  16. People seem to forget just how critical people are and have been towards BIS. They don't get off easy either. Given your join date I'd have thought you'd know that the most, having seen OFP's, ArmA's and Arma 2's releases, but I guess I'm mistaken. But to compare BIS to CM is just wrong. BIS have a great reputation of showing tremendous dedication to their products post-release, and create very special things as a result. Plus, they are in contact with the community all the time, even Marek and Ondrej. There is zero competition in terms of the passion each has for their games. People are critical of CM, particularly here due to them doing it to the OFP name on top of this, because they lie to their customers, they cut support very quickly leaving games still riddled with issues, and they can't accomplish things with their games that other companies have with much smaller budgets and dev teams 9 years ago.
  17. That "explanation" is definitely bullshit. It makes it out to be that the point of the teleporting is due to the engine limitations. Why is it specific to the qualifying sections? Hell, why is something like that an engine limitation of an engine originally designed to be for racing games? :confused: It sounds far too fishy...
  18. Their recent reputation doesn't support anything other than that does it, Pulverizer? Besides, if you read what I said, you'll see I'm looking for an answer as to whether it is actually faked or not by looking at the actual coding of the game. I am simply betting it is faked, as far too many factors point to that. Edit: Lol, watch the end of Part 2 of that video and you'll see an example of the supposed fake AI. JsMlhvQT8gQ
  19. I look forward to seeing someone delve into the actual configs of the game itself and finding a fool-proof answer as to the AI being faked or not. I'll hedge my bets at the moment on it being faked. Edit: Lol, just saw your post Rista. You got any links?
  20. Well, that's pretty pathetic...
  21. You just made my day, DM. :D
  22. Some of us want games with a bit more substance. BIS' games and Valve's are the only ones that have kept me coming back time and time again. The others I finish, play the MP for a few weeks if it has it and it's good enough, and then I never touch it again. Others I don't even finish and feel I wasted money on them, as is how I would feel if I had bought F1 2010 or DR uninformed as to all of this, I believe.
  23. They also said they'd give continuous free DLC and support for DR. Hell, they claim that RR is an OFP game. I don't really value CM's word any more. :rolleyes:
  24. A couple months from now everyone will know the pre-scripted patterns of the other faked cars, making the singleplayer an utterly dull and predictable experience. There's one way. There will be zero longevity to the game.
