    I never finished that scenario. I ended up gunning down the endlessly-respawning riflemen at the demolished CDF base after conquering the whole map in time. The other attempt I made, and the Russian base spawned in the middle of the ocean.

    Exactly what I encountered. I only made it one time so far to destroy the enemy base and capture all villages, but the mission would not end. On a side note, for some reason the Russian Checkpoint task was marked as failed. Don't know why and how. I could never finish that one off.

    But for some other reason, the box on the mission selection screen ticked it green although I never made it to debriefing. Good enough for me :D

    yes you mean nagoyan (not the way his name is spelt but pronounced that way)

    He is written Nguyen and pronounced more like "Nyuen". The voice actor pronounced it wrong, which probably still is correct since real US soldiers did the same back then :D

    Luhgnut;1562513']The fingers all point to one person Lenton. SION LENTON

    It's his job as the Executive Producer to merge development and marketing together. If there's a "mis-communication" it's his fault' date=' his fault alone and is ultimately responsible for the success or (in this case) failure of the title.

    From watching his glamorous TV and E3 interviews, it's obvious that

    A) He didn't play the game

    B) He loves to glam for the camera

    C) He didn't play the game

    D) He loves to glam for the camera

    E) Is an idiot.[/quote']

    In the end, all of it doesn't matter, because the masquerade was quite successful until the release date. They just tried to get the best out of the crap they produced over the past several years, and you can say they were successful with the misleading and the selling of the "game".

    I'd love to have those marketing guys in my company, if I had one :D

    It looks like that hole thing was one big misunderstanding between the dev's and the marketing guys.

    Not quite. I think the marketing management of CM did an outstanding job. Despite the fact that the game is just plain bullshit, they were able to masquerade the whole thing as something what it just is not. Until the release date. Just look at the game mags. What about those preview versions? Either they believed too, that all the promised things will eventually show up in the final, or they just played along with a little side profit.

    No, the marketing was spectacular, hence not a single tone from them since release.

    Any company in the world dreams of such a marketing, believe me that.

    You'll be disappointed with OFP running all on max. I have quite a new machine (AMD X4 620, 4 GB Ram, HD4870), and I'm not able to set all setting to max and go above 2km VD. If I do that in config, the game will eventually crash on startup saying there's not enough free memory (I think the hardcoded max Memory recongition is 2 GB). If I set the settings in the game, the game will just run with about 0,1 fps (before crashing).

    Old engine :cool:

    How is it that Duke had predication? The bullets in that thing had infinite speed. They don't need to lead targets.

    Nope guys. Just remember the fat floating bastards that shot the rockets. Rockets didn't have infinite speed. You still can test it, if you got an Win98 computer :D

    So now, if you got this fat floating enemy in front of you and just kept strafing in the same direction, he would shoot the rocket directly at your predicted position and blow you into bits. Try it out!

    Ironically, I played this game on my laptop when I was in Vietnam last year. I found it rather hard to master, and I'm quite the unpatient personality so after 2 or 3 missions, I just gave up because of the constant dying or not hitting anything. I never tried the M79 tactics though :p

    I just can't install the patch.

    I guess it's a problem with registry entries. The installer seems to have problems with Vista/7, since I couldn't find any registry entry of the game after installing. If I could manually add the values into the registry, the patch installer might be able to recognize the game as being installed.

    Too bad there is absolutely nothing to be found on the whole internet, probably because the community of this game is rather ... tiny :p
