    Wow. You're really desperate for an argument if you say that looks anything like OFP. It doesn't even look like ArmA. That's because it's a render done in a 3D program.

    New PC Surround Sound Entertainment Center.

    I'd just go to Circuit City and check out the particular system you're looking at in person.

    petition for wood camo

    I think the moral of this thread is that the BLUFOR side of this game should have revolved soley around the Marine Corps instead of the current hybrid 'Marmy'. But then again it seems to have just been thrown together with leftovers from VBS anyway so.. I can.

    The need to download addons is what led to the downfall of OFP's multiplayer mode if you ask me... a lot of people here don't realize that 90% of people who play OFP mutiplayer are NOT die-hard fans that visit the forums or addon sites... I mean, I find it mandatory for myself to find interesting modifications etc. for any game I buy but for other people it's not that way...

    Funny Review of ArmA

    I posted this before and the thread was locked.

    BI Forum Reconnaissance Game

    Looks like something inspired by an M47 turret and built on some kind of unidentifiable chassis... can't say I've seen that sloping track design on very many tanks.

    Ask a moderator about the forum and the rules

    How does one attain moderator status? Do I simply de-register, re-register, and make 100 posts or something?

    Afterburners?

    There are no afterburners. I can see how they would come in handy in this game though... instead of going across the entire island in 2.6 seconds, you could probably make it across in about 1.5 with afterburners.

    ArmA photography - Questions&Comments

    Dearest CanadianTerror, When might that incredible looking addon featured in your last batch of beautiful screenshots be released? Also, I'm inquisitive as to whether or not Mr. Boyes got the tools before everyone else? Kind Regards, blackdog SWLBTCM2 Leader Pen15 Club Member Rebl Men Leader

    Best Whiskey?

    I've personally been drinking Jack Daniels since the tender age of twelve, so I'd say it's the best.

    Another ArmA review out!

    Latest review for ArmedAssault gives very good ratings! "After years and years of doing fucking nothing, Bohemia Interactive releases a game that seemingly un-improves on every single feature of the original Operation: Flashpoint." See the rest at VideoGamesSuck. PS: The final score was "Five The Monkies out of two groups of The Beatles, and that's being kind." High-five, very nice!

    Another ArmA review out!

    Hi, You indirectly accuse me of being "light on facts" -- could you please further describe this phenomenon to me? As far as I know, almost everything that I have posted has been very fact-based. While my opinion on these facts may be to the negative, it doesn't automatically make all of the things I post invalid. I don't believe that I have made any idiotic insults thus far. Don't be such a poop face!!!

    Another ArmA review out!

    That review seems typical of your mindset. If dropping the F bomb every other word constitutes a good review, than it's a gem. So your pissed off,so sorry, get over it. Plenty of people are enjoying this game despite your rancor. These same people also want improvments in the engine yet don't find the need to take every opportunity to bash it. Do you think you'll get BIS to bow to your every whim by embarrising them? Hi mate, please show me a post that I have made in the past that illustrates my mindset that is is proper to drop the F-bomb every other word and then I will advance to reading the rest of your post. Thanks! E: Alright, alright. It's not like me not to address an entire post. I don't take every opportunity to bash the game. I have made at least two or three positive posts out of 20 or so. Did I ever say that I thought BIS would bow to my every whim? No I didn't. In fact, if you had read my post, you would have seen that I said: I could go on and on and on and on but I doubt that any of the issues that I raise will be addressed by anyone. -- me, my last post. I acknowledge the fact that this makes my postings somewhat irrelevant and pointless but the fact that I can get people into such a fuss for simply bitching about features that should have been addressed in the first place really just makes my day. Actually, I take that back - I'm not that much of an asshole. I suppose the reason I post is that I find it fascinating the way that so many have developed such a "hate everyone who complains about ArmA for being released in a generally ridiculous state" complex. I find the whole "go back and play CS/BF2" complex amusing as well.

    Another ArmA review out!

    I don't hate ArmA. I am hopeful that it will finally be playable for myself and many, many others by the North American release date. It just pisses me off that BIS fails to correct so many issues regarding balanced sides with balanced vehicles, etc. A lot of people claim that the addon makers will make the game and that BIS are just providing the engine but it is my opinion that the way addons were implemented in OFP led to the downfall of multiplayer. Confusion and frustration over the ridiculous number of addons I had to download just to play a game of OFP is what stopped my MP days. ArmA is already polluted with many, many addons that are not standalone which require modification of the entire game files which in my opinion is not a good thing -- not a good thing at all. Another thing that I am very angry about is that the community (what's left of it and the new people coming in even) fails to come together and work as a team to create another standardization initiative from the get-go so we could avoid the pains we saw in late implementation in OFP. I could go on and on and on and on but I doubt that any of the issues that I raise will be addressed by anyone. It's nice to hear that you're only beginning to dislike me. I was under the assumption that everyone already hated me for my so called radical and cruel opinions and arguments, and that I had nothing to lose.

    Arma's lighting.

    And the result is that you cant see SHIT at night... I don't care if it's realistic or not, it fucks up the gameplay to hell...

    Arma's lighting.

    Have you ever worn NVG's in your life? No? Then why are you even arguing? I've worn NVG's and that DOES NOT HAPPEN.

    <span style='font-size:15pt;line-height:100%'>HDR SUCKS TOTAL BALLS IN ARMED ASSAULT</span> doesn't matter whether it's day, night, mid-afternoon, or late-morning -- it's a fact... It is most definitely worst at night though... check out this video... there's probably some background text that I should add to it but it just kind of demonstrates the horrid night-HDR effects. http://www.surfacezero.com/span/hdrnvg.wmv

    BIS needs to decide...

    Does it bother anyone else that the Army is using mostly Marine Corps equipment in this game? I mean for chrisssake, in the latest patch, the M1030/KLR650 still says "USMC" on the side. How difficult would that have been to take off? Not difficult at all. Come on... Also bothers me that the Humvees in the game use the latest style hardtop with A/C vents yet they do not incorporate the M1151/M1152/M1114 front grille extension, armor additions, or even armored doors. The doors represented in the game are made completely of fiberglass IRL. Far from bulletproof. Another thing that bothers me is that M923's are still in the game. The Army uses FMTV's now for the most part. They may be a piece of shit in real life but they could at least be represented in the game. One last thing, it's too bad that scripting or support for trailers wasn't incorporated into the game as trailers and such are an essential part of military mobility.... plus it's cool to tow things around. blackdog Elite Marine Delta Seal Team Module Team Leader PS: I don't have anything else to complain about at the moment, 1.05 has solved a lot of the really bothersome gameplay issues and I thank BIS for this.

    BIS needs to decide...

    Well... We've got... ... for the USMC: AH-1 M1030 AV-8 ... for the Army: UH-60 Stryker Soldiers (ECU Pattern) MH-6 AH-6 ... for both: Humvees (albeit incorrect/functioning) RHIB ... for neither: M-923 (outdated) M-163 (so outdated it's not even funny, replaced by the Avenger, which has been since replaced by... not sure...)
