I'm with MehMan. And besides, you are comparing Iraqi tank crew members with Russian tank crew members...

Russian grunts don't need own NVG's since they will take them off of their dead, cold opponents' bodies :eek: :D

I always had big respect for the MTA developers and community. The effort put into the MTA projects is just beyond everything I ever saw in gaming communities. It's nice to see a final release after so many years. I will definitely take a look into it

If you pre-order CoDR today, you'll get a *drumroll*... BONUS MISSION. http://news.bigdownload.com/2009/08/06/extra-mission-for-gamestop-operation-flashpoint-dragon-rising-p/ Such a news reveals CM marketing strategy and their target audiences ("OMFG a BONUS MISSION, look at BIS they never did that!!! OMG WTF BBQ" - generic CM fanboy) Honestly, this isn't something I personally would expect from a pre-order "bonus" (if any), since after day 1, missions will (or should) flow like water out of the community. Except the editor is crap. But let's wait and see (if the editor is in the demo). Otherwise I feel sorry for the dudes buying a pig in a poke... :j:

Exactly. He's as hardcoded as FADE. You can never discover him by browsing through files :D

The only reason for me to play that game would be... fragging a lot of n00bs and laughing at them and then go back playing ArmA

I searched this thread but couldn't find anything so I hope this question wasn't asked before: Will players of the expansion pack be able to play on "pure" ArmA2 servers? Or better, will expansion servers include everything from the original game so the original exe becomes redundant? The latter is hard to imagine since it's a standalone expansion, but well, BIS is always good for some surprises :D A "game-linking option" would rock

MJ. That's why he's called the "moonwalker". :rolleyes:

Yeah, that's why I'd like to see the "I" scoreboard being removed as well. But I guess it's necessary for the DM and CTF missions. Some dudes get a boner by being on the top, killed lots of tanks and inf, boasting around and calling other players "noobs"... while I'm at the very bottom of this list but satcheling the base and winning the game for us :rolleyes: Who the hell invented "achievements" anyway. To me, it seems to be some kind of EA disease, implemented into games that get boring very soon, just to keep players motivated wasting their time with. A good game does not NEED achievements and ranking system (and neither do simulations). Full stop.

How about a T-shirt that says: I ordered ArmA 2 and all I got was this lousy T-shirt! (and a frightening bunch of program code)

Isn't it obvious? :rolleyes: He's got a cameraparrot s(h)itting on his shoulder! :D Yarr! :p

Are you serious? My opinion to this game is rather negative, so if you decide to read on, don't take it personal :p That game was awful. I remember my cousin brought it along from Ukraine so it was in Russian language and the few briefings which were recorded audio files were so low-quality, I couldn't figure out what the hell they were saying (I don't even know if it was Russian or English). Anyway I couldn't understand a thing, which actually didn't really matter as it was only run and gun. The sounds and graphics (soldiers looked as "painted" with MS Paint) were plain crap for being released in 1998. By that time I was not sure what to think of that game, is it a simulation or what? If so, the engine was completely unsuitable, because I wasn't really able to sneak around, in contrary, I was Duke Nukem in da Jungle and the AI was... well Duke Nukem style: Placed sprites that will get active if something is triggered within their reaction radius. The only thing I actually liked were the large maps, but then again the missing details ruined that for me. I figured out that I could use the old Duke Nukem cheats and so more or less enthusiastically beat myself through the levels only to erase the game from my hard drive (and my memory). I never found out how GT Interactive could agree to publish that. Maybe you could enlighten me? :D

:at647: No.

Yeah sure you can do that. But it's not like you could hit anyone or anything while doing that, except maybe your own legs. Try that in "real life". Yeah sure you can do that. But it's not like you wouldn't die of exhaustion after jumping around with your loads of gear and your gun in your hands. Try that in "real life". Yeah sure you can do that. But it's not like you wouldn't totally destroy your vehicle's gear and braking system after a short period of time. Try that in "real life". Hence the name "Military Combat SIMULATOR"? Actually, everybody makes a cup of coffee after joining a multiplayer server. I see nothing wrong with that. It's nobody's fault that you bought the wrong game. You obviously didn't even read the tagline of the game title (did I mention "Military Combat SIMULATOR"?). In conclusion, yeah, you should have informed yourself earlier. :rolleyes:

I trained well for NOT being drafted to the mandatory service year in Germany. I managed to bring up 58 kg with 185cm. Well, now I'm all up 74kg again and happy about not having wasted one year of my life :D

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marine_(military) So they're sailor warriors. End of discussion. :D

CM said they make CoDR less realistic and more fair (than OFP! OFP!!!!).

The players of this game don't need a ranking system or "achievements" to keep being motivated. No good sir, it's the other way round indeed! The players motivate the game and thus it allows us to play great matches in the nearby future!

Reminds me of fanbois of a certain fruit company who buy their products because they look "cooler" than the standard, 1/4th of the price, ones. Anyway, I couldn't care less if it will be implemented or not. :dancehead:

Yeah. Actually that part you quoted doesn't make much sense as it seems to be directly translated from Chinese without reviewing (The source stated is a Chinese newspaper). Well, but wikipedia is free to edit for everybody, so check those sources and you can have a lot of fun :p

Interesting stuff: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apollo_moon_landing_hoax

And what exactly do you want to tell us with that...? Other than you beg for infraction punishment of course :D

Actually it would be pretty awesome :cc:

Wow, that map is super big... NOT :D

For me, Resident Evil 1 on PS. Was about 10 years old and pissed my bed because of nightmares :D
