Uni Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 Terrible rendering and controls/interaction - it's no BF!. Uninstalled after 30mins, try the demo before you buy http://www.armedassault.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 I've heard it's glitchy, but I don't play the PC much anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyconcrete Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 I've heard it's glitchy, but I don't play the PC much anymore. Glitchy isn't the word, its absolutely shocking. I enjoyed Operation Flashpoint (despite its quirks) so I thought I would give this a try. Some reviews marked it high, others very very poorly. The general opinion is, they took an old engine - and adding post-rendering to try and tart it up a bit. I upgraded my box to a Core Duo, 2gb RAM and a 512mb 7900 GeForce and it struggled, even at 800x600. Load up BG2142 and it ticks along happily at 1280x1024. The game had loads of potential, but a seriously crappy engine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 It's a shame, I enjoyed Operation Flashpoint as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VinnieK Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 I bought it a little while ago, lured by the promise of huge draw distances and whatnot. Haven't encountered that many bugs so far, but it looks like absolute crap. I know there's got to be some kind of compromise with regards to features and aesthetics, but this thing looks about as pretty as Half Life 1.

joeyconcrete Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 but this thing looks about as pretty as Half Life 1. That nice? I had to crank mine down to 800x600, even at that Res - Operation Wolf has better graphics and frame-rate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bananaman Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 Bring on Forgotten Hope 2 is all I have to say. Anyone here been playing BOMSF? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VinnieK Posted June 15, 2007 Share Posted June 15, 2007 I upgraded my box to a Core Duo, 2gb RAM and a 512mb 7900 GeForce and it struggled, even at 800x600. That's odd, ArmA works fine for me at 1280x1024 with most of the settings on high, and I've only got the 7600 GeForce. Even at those settings the textures look like they were made in MS Paint though. It wouldn't be so bad, but it's so boring as well! Average single player mission consists of: Run left! Run Fowards! Run right then backwards! Spin round three times! Return to insertion point! Mission Accomplished! At least Operation Wulf was fun. Bananaman have you played the Eve of Destruction 2 for Bf2 yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
