  1. Huh ? I never had the mission to transport any prisoner ?? anyway, putting them in the ammo crates would have saved all this teamkilling and searching of a way to see something. PLUS it seems that the first time I load the the mission to continue, the night is somewhat clear enough to see something. Then I die and reload and it's way darker after that...

    I agree, I have a mid machine, only GPU is new, I get 22-30fps in ARMA and 100-120 in OFPDR. Come one guys, they have done something right, we can admit it, even if that's the only thing. And I don't agree it's 2005 graphics, the graphics event look better than Arma on some points (though I know they don't load the same stuff). The most disappointing thing for me is the lack of TrackIR and joystick support. This is "foutage de gueule" as we say in french (meaning it's a bad joke). I should have been suspicious when I read they would release the game for PC and consoles at the same time... cause this is a console game.
  3. Hard to find an officer (and kill him) in the complete dark, I should have done this before. Friend get ready to be sacrified ;-) (btw why do you hide the body ? Do the UN inspect the field afterwards ? :D)
  4. woaaaaa nice idea :-) bad you have to kill a teammate in order to play this mission (cause no, without NVG you just can't see anything and play the mission). I tried to find some on ennemies, buy at base, but had no luck. Now I'm gonna kill my friends! (wouldn't his teammates kill me afterwards ? If I remember in FP you were killed by the other in case of teamkill)
  5. Hey, I'm in DOW, cool mission, but now it's night, I have no NVgoggles and everything is daaaark. Any help where I can find something to see a light in there ?? cheers

    very sure, you can see it in the preferences, it lists an xbox controller, and in the fact that it does not seem to support TrackIR if I'm right. The complete menu construction reflects a console state of mind

    well, i tried it a bit more, very nice looking, but not what I was waiting for. Nice game, but far from Arma2. IMHO neither Arma2 nor OFPDR could reach the height of first Operation Flashpoint, but the one coming the closest to it is Arma2, no doubt. Great atmosphere in OFPDR, great sounds, there does not seem to be graphical flickering we find in arma, maybe less stupid IA (which sometimes is Arma fun killer), well it's certainly a good game, but it does not deserve the "Operation Flashpoint 2" name.

    Gamespoint gives a 7.5 (good) to PS3 version, no ranking for PC yet. the good: Realism creates a great sense of tension Good variety of weapons and vehicles Long, challenging missions Entertaining multiplayer modes. The Bad AI makes notable blunders Assorted bugs and hitches. I personnally launched it and played like 45 seconds at midday, but I had a good first feeling. More when more tests done, but to what concerns me, I'm open to find it cool if it is and have no a priori for ArmA or OFP. (ArmA2 is sometimes soooo frustrating too, so...)
  9. Hey guys, yesterday I tried for the first time the fast travel option... ahum ahum all I can say is that I almost got sick how fast this travel is... (or in decoded: I almost got asleep waiting...) :D:D
  10. 100% agree, but I wouldn't say it's annoying, I'd say it's a SHAME

    so can you please give me the best ArmA2 campaign in your opinion, which is no warfare but very good quality ? (if lots of chopper missions, better :-))

    One more time, I don't say Warfare is of not interest for anybody, I just say I don't like that, and the campaign I found in ArmA2 did not live to my great expectations. They should just have made two campaigns: one with all this stuff, and one more like the first missions (which by the way and one more time are soooo great) or more OFP style. So everybody would have had a choice, and this thread would not have existed. As for doing Badlands with ONLY razor team, I wish you good luck, taking second village is easy, but counter-attack is IMO way too hard for me and 3 guys who love to stay up when shot at ;-) I read it, but I don't agree. It's quite hard to find GOOD campaigns (I mean differentiating good from bad ones) from the community without investing a great time on forums & testing campaigns which is time consuming (btw if you can give me a great one, I take it). With a built in campaign, you have something official, which *should be* a insurance on quality. By the way, I tink very few people would buy a game that is just a gaming system with no content.

    you're not wrong, but still, many campaign missions AND single player missions use the things I don't like, so my title is not so wrong, as this is the most part of the game's content. I don't agree campaign is a small part of the game. The game I buy is mostly campaign and single player missions. Then if I download extra user content, this is not really "the game" but extensions to it. anyway, can you change a thread title ? IF yes, how ? ---------- Post added at 02:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:27 PM ---------- ok, sorry then... I didn't read it like this, but I guess you're right about speaking of other games.

    Hey, don't get me wrong, I love ArmA, and enjoy plaing it a lot, that's why I'm here. All I don't like is this high command modules which does not suit, IMHO, a game like this. That's why from now on I'm gonna concentrate on user made content that suits my desires. But still I will keep commenting here to say what I like or not. For the people saying: go play COD, or BF2, guys you don't get it. That's exactly the part of the game that makes ArmA closer to capture the flag games that I'm criticizing. I don't want ArmA to become one more flag capture game, just like all the others. One guy said it right: high command module, base building, units buying should belong to multi player, and multi player only. That's nothing to do in single player campaign. You may like and drive a car, but not the way the constructor made the seats. Will you throw the car away for this or tell the constructor he could do better with the seats next time? Personally I say what I think. If you don't complain and say what you think, how can people make better the next time ?
