  1. OMG I was litterally @ GOG like maybe 2 months ago looking for this and now here it is! Dunno if I was somewhere in the OFP, RB6 (Raven Shield) or yes BF 1942, MOHAA relm when this came but the atmoshere of this game is probably what played a huge part in me being where I'am today. Playing shooters lol. Man if they'd remake this with current tech or maybe someone(hint hint) would make a ArmA3 mod for it(kinda surprised nobody has yet). Very awsome find!!! I also got MOHAA on GOG(offtopic).If you love the ArmA/OFP squad play slowed down even slower than ArmA you should try this game!

     


  2. Pretty scary that 15 years gone by since me and a friend walked down to the gaming store a sunny day and picked up two CD boxes with OFP in it!

     

    On the way home we was hyped about the MP part and discussed how well things would work on my 56 600 bps modem, my friend was lucky enough to have a 128  KB  ISDN link from his work at home. Since that day OFP/ArmA is one of the few games I still play.

     

    Fast forward to today and being an old fart my first contact with video games was this...

    Having that perspective I'm amazed how far we came with computer games in general and all the new things the Dev's added in A3. Many things like weapon resting, leaning, stances, FFV, diving, mines, advanced flight model, sling loading, etc.... have been on the wishlist since very long time ago and now we have them!

     

    Happy birthday! Looking forward to your 20th birthday and beyond :)

  3. In celebration of 15 years of OFP/ArmA and as a lil bonus to BIS an 1 lucky person I've decided to buy another copy of Apex and give it away to one lucky person. Persons interested in submitting for this must have base game ArmA3 (not already own Apex) an sumbit a submission here with there correct steam name. Will run this for 1 day only! (9am US central standard time/6/23/2016).

  4. Happy Birthday OFP (yes you'll always be OFP too me too H... with Codi). Man what a ride it has been, I remember first playing OFP(ArmA CWA) for the first time an being blown away by the realism and running for my life like the whole Russian Army was looking for me. Has been interesting too see the changes from than til now were on the cusp of our first Pacific terrain, that Jame Gastovski an David Armstrong would be proud of:D Lil tip too new players if you hav'nt played the CWC campaign an don't mind the old gfx it's one of the best campaigns ever.


  5. Just pure speculation, but you think BIS will drop another present @ E3 on Monday? Maybe full Apex content in dev branch or some vehicles/weapons/factions etc? I sure hope so :D In past seems like most new content spent a week or two in dev b4 releasing new content onto dev so if release is end of June(if) would give em a cpl weeks for bug squashing.
