OFP2 Game
« on: October 09, 2009, 01:57:57 am »

Just wondered if anyone else played OFP2 yet? I tried it for about 30 minutes today and it was horrible compared to ARMA2.....


The controls...eeek
Map Editor is outside of the game!!!
Graphics are ok for the positive side.

Just overall it seems to be lacking  :(

I've seen adverts for it on the local bus stops.
I've seen trailers a while back.
I doubt I'll get it.

Also, we are not planning on converting the OFP gate to OFP2 before anyone asks!

Master Bra'tac beat Apophis in a game of chess. Using Mr Bun the Baker.

When Master Bra'tac fell from above and failed to learn to fly on the way down, Hannor Mir still became a street pizza.

Yeah, it seems to be the general opinion that the game is not worth its name.

Whatever, they should already know that.

Yea the game is a dissapointment but play it on Hardcore and the gameplay kicks arma 2s ass by miles, i hate arma 2 gameplay tbf, the only reason its still installed on my system is because of this stargate mod so thumbs us there guys.

But i hope you guys look at the possibility of modding OPFP2 if they release the tools.

Not sure about the other teams, but DSF have no intention of doing that.

Correct, the engine couldn't support our code; we have no interest in it. Lol

ITER was originally an acronym for International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor, but that title was dropped due to the negative popular connotation of "thermonuclear", especially when in conjunction with "experimental".

ArmA2's engine is just sooo good and maleable for scripting, that it'd be pretty hard to port it to anything else.

Nowhere near. Lua is a fairly standard language, referencing the individual engine's exposed members.

OFP/ArmA/ArmA II script are completely proprietary.

It may be possible to convert the Garry's mod gate to OFP2 if it is Lua!

Ha... new patch out after a long month waiting for critical fixes, and the patch outlines are basically the deactivation of mod support (disabled external files load) and a bunch of crap noted just for the sake of filling log space. Whole community there at CM forums is mad at them for the gun-point robbery.

I'd say that, unless they address all major bugs soon (listening to the community would be even helpful in that aspect, much more if there was some feedback in both ways), and reenable mod support, the game is pretty much dead (there's always fanboism though, but I'd consider it a minor current of opinions within the community given how much screwed up the game looks in comparison to ArmA1 or 2).
