a better AI doesn't mean a better game, also, OFP have better AI because it have more people working on that and more money, and the game is a lot smaller than ArmA
it dont have it?......dont worry OFP2 fanboy, i am sure there are +30 mods that allow you to do that in weird ways, maybe some of them will nuke the map when you destroy the house, and 100% of the houses in ArmA 3 will be destroyable, just like BF3
how can you know the limits of ArmA 3 if it need one more year of developent and it will have between 3 and 15 times the map sizes of BF3? ArmA 3 engine is not the same as the previous ones, so unless you come from the future and tested A3, you cant tell to much
oh, i do know everything from what i talk about, and i repeat my last comment, ArmA 3 needs 1 more year of dev so you cant know the limits, also, i chequed, after Operation arrowhead most of the buildings are enterable and 100% of them are destructable
@xXxMartin96xXx hold on there in arma it takes two shots to kill a person in opf it takes one to the heart in arma you could switch from third person to fist person any time you want now tell me how freaking realistic is that
just for what you asked i discovered you aint on the USMC as i though by your username, you are not even 18, because if you where, you could go and find in options the option to change if you want the 1st and 3rd person view toogle on or off
@xXxMartin96xXx BRO of course im not on in the USMC you also are under 18 cause only a crazy man would believe something they saw online and it the fact that such a realistic game would even have 3rd person view toggle or not
i believed it because i saw people who got the name of some military force on their accounts and they where on it (like navybrony)
and if you want all the shit to be 100% realistic go to request VBS wich is a version of ArmA 2 wich military forces around the world use to train their soldiers, ArmA 2 is just a home-based version, if you want full military experience, toogle it all off, dont complain about it because you just stand there and look like a retard
so, you hate the game because they have an option to make it easyer and a bit less realistic? wow, you are really really small, and yes, i am - 18 years old and i look a lot more mature than you
i am not "claming" that ArmA is the most realistic game, i say that ArmA is a realistic war simulator and the only Infantry War simulator Saga since OFP1, and i think i know how do you look because you where enough unmature like to think when i mean "i am more mature than you" mean something physical
DUDE ARE YOU A FUCKING RETARD? COD NEVER EVER GOT A 3rd PERSON VIEW!
also, like i said
YOU CAN TURN THAT SHIT OFF! why are you hating so much a game because you can change your camera? you look like a 12 years old kid raging because a game was too hard for him
dude, you are a freaking retarded, i will not answer you after this coment, i hope you dont also, and when you end the junior school and maybe when you get in the military forces you will see that right now, you are being a retarded
@xXxMartin96xXx your a fucking idiot that a mod ,and any ways were comparing opf2 vs arma 2 .Thats what the video above is about so yes you are lying
the video is ArmA 2 vs OFP 2 and is by choice who is the best, for me is ArmA 2, for most of the people here is ArmA 2, and you are not even 13 years old if you think the video i sent you is a mod, seriusly, you are a fucking blind retarded kid if you SERIUSLY think that was a fucking mod
Are we taking into account which games have better mods? Because after playing Arma 2 with some really well made mods, I find vanilla Arma 2 to be absolute crap. I only had OFP2 on console and that was a huge waste, it was crap. What was it? 8 signle player mission and one of the worst multiplayers I ever encountered. I'm sure OPF2 is better on PC but I am not sure about how big the OFP community is and what mods are available.....In fact I feel like checking that out now....cya
Little suggestion: try playing the original OPF, even if outdated. There are still mods that make it incredibly beautiful after all these years. Only then the differences will be cleared out!
@BigMete0r Thank you, but I wasn't referring to you. :) I was giving a general suggestion to those whom I'm amazed can't understand the differences between these two different genres.
I've been playing OPF myself ever since, we sure grew up a long way, huh? LOL!
Amazes me how people don't understand the differences: in the ORIGINAL Operation Flashpoint, designed bt Bohemia Interactive Studio, you can move your head independently from the body, I don't recall many other games having this option; it continued with ArmA and ArmA II.
Codemaster's OPFDR is simply a First Person Shooter that doesn't have this option, just like the majority of FPS in the market. BIS makes SIMULATORS, while Codemasters has shamelessly ripped off the name and designed a GAME!
arma 2 has good graphics, but flashpoint are more stylized and that = better and they are steal real looking...also if ur an arma fanboy u cant instantly say its better...
in operation flashpoint it might take 5 shots to kill someone on NORMAL...the same goes for arma 2...if its hardcore=1 or 2 shots depending on where they are...
People seem to think that when games have over the top bloom effects and nice glowing graphics, it's realistic. I mean seriously, in real life it doesn't look that bloomy and shiny.
@glennjridge Actually it does have an editor. It's just not integrated into the game like arma 2, meaning that you open the editor, make a mission, then open ofp2 to play it.
@glennjridge PC version has both (DLC).. Console version doesnt have an editor which sucks coz the replayability is lacking.. ill just have to wait till Red River
Whichever is better is up to you. if your looking for the most true to war experience, Arma 2, if your looking for a video game that is about war and is realistic, Operation Flashpoint 2 is your game.
@BigMete0r I believe that when he said "realistic" he meant in terms of graphics. But anyways, Arma 2 does have good graphics too is just that is not flashy in-your-face type of graphics like CoD and Crysis. Most of the textures resolution in Arma2 are top notch, Crysis quality.
@BigMete0r In real life it would take way more than 5 5.56mm rounds to kill a Chinese soldier because of the modern Body armour they wear. So basically, 5 is being generous.
@BigMete0r You're not wrong there, but 5.56mm i'm pretty sure wont knock you down. It doesn't even knock people down who dont wear it, that's what soldiers say its not my opinion. They need to make it as though there are a few places in between the plates inside the body armour where there is a chance for the bullet to pass clean through and get into contact with the enemy's body. About the ballistic plates though, they're hard cookies to break through pal.
very true. and ceramic body armor insert plates that our military wears is good for 1 to 2 rounds. not to mention the plates or smaller than a sheet of paper....most rounds dont even hit the plates. and the 5.56 isnt that bad of a round actually. good ballistics. of course theres better rounds out there but its not bad, and when some1 is shooting at you and you get hit in the plate. your adrenalina is going so fast you literally would fall over and hop back up
@BigMete0r it would also break a few ribs....and i dont want to bring this up but hav u ever played COD? yes its not as realistic....plus if it was realistic...if u got shot once u would probably be struggling to stay alive....need a casevac....and spend 5 to 9 months in recovery and theropy.....if u died....it would say game over you can never play it agian so.....in that case arma 2 isnt realistic either
Newton says that if you can fire a 5.56 round from the shoulder without getting thrown back on your butt, theres no chance that it will happen if you get hit on the chest with your vest absorbing 100% of the kinetic energy fired at point black.
@moicced Fuck newtons law... ever see a baseball player get hit with 100mph fastball and he falls over yet the pitcher who threw it amazingly is still standing?......It's not about about the physics of the force of the bullet, you fall over because you just fucking got shot and it hurts like HEELLLL!!! regardless of body armor. I've talked to a vet that was saved body armor and he walked away with broken ribs and a purple chest....... and a purple heart.
1. True, in a firefight your not always standing up completely. So the bullet as less leverage and is even less likely to know you over. You know that its better to aim for the center of the mass whitch is lower than the shoulder
2. True, now get shot while standing on 1 leg you just proved Newton's law
3. The energy that is absorbed inside the system isnt transmitted to the bullet.
The shooted stays on his feets, the target gets less kinetic energy
@moicced Either way, you get shot wearing body armor you fall down, like i mentioned in my first comment. You fall because it hurts. I'm trying to explain real-world scenarios not a classroom experiment. I'm not smarter than newton or anything. But if you get shot, you will fall, not because of physics, because you could break ribs, seperate a shoulder, bruise a vital organ or god forbid..lose a testicule. Body armor can prevent deaths but rarely ever injury.
@SSDogSoldier there is NO way, that every soldier you encounter could take shots like they do in Dragon Rising... not forgetting it just feels completely arcadey, I'm glad I didn't pay full price for it, saved the money an bought ArmA II.
@DecodeAGamer I've seemed to have learned a lot in 3 months, I sound like a dope looking back at that comment. My bad brother, 5.56mm could clear body armour, not all rounds will be successful though. Depends on angle really doesn't it?
OFP i like for the realism and the feel like your really in the army my best moment with that was me and my friend losing our tail rotor in a black hawk "SUPER SIX-4 GOING DOWN!" and then we defended the area to the last man
ARMA 2 i like cuz u can be so badass, my best moment was when i was playing a custom mission with my mates and they came under fire from like 5 tanks and i was in an A10 and im like INFUCKING COMING FELLAS! and let ripe taking everything out and everyone was like HEALLL YEA!
I understand that it looks like COD, but it holds one difference it doesnt play like COD and thats a sure fire winner for me.
I, being a mac user, dont have the luxury of pc games. I'll stick with my PS3 and even if i did have a PC i wouldnt use it for games. end of the day i'd feel a mug if I went out and bought a specific set of upgrades just to play a game on the pc where by buying a ps3 i'm gauranteed good graphics atleast for another 3/4 years.
arma2 has best community and mods and with the right settings, mods and filters looks 10x better. the default wep you see for arma2 here looks ugly, some look bitching. arma2 is best if you want realistic strategic tactical play... otherwise look to BC2 or MW2. game requires patience and skill.
i personally like OPFP 2 better more because mainly there arnt as many controls to worry about and it just feels like it has smoother gameplay....even though its damn hard to fly in OPFP 2....btw how in hell is OPFP 2 a parady of BC2? Flashpoint came out before it and there completely different types of first person shooters
@kevinncc1701 arma 2 gameplay is way too buggy.. to justify its bad design and practicality for control of your units, they marketed it as a 'realistic simulator', so kids usually buy that
i personally like OPFP 2 better more because mainly there arnt as many controls to worry about and it just feels like it has smoother gameplay....even though its damn hard to fly in OPFP 2
@BigMete0r OFP2 a bad company 2 parody? on what criteria? I don't see how they are alike. OFP2 is an amazing war simulator, with very life-like gameplay.
@dogzer If you love realism Arma games are for you, OFP DR2 is not realistic at all. Also Arma 2 has better and more realistic graphics and animations, OFP DR uses just stupid tricks to make graphics look better but with good computer like I have Arma 2 owns totally.
If you want realism Arma 2 is only option from these 2. If you want over hyped and buggy mix of realism and COD then buy OFP 2. Better gameplay? Hell no. Its boring as hell.
also, AI in Arma2 is terrible and mega stupid :D dont know how is it in OFP DR..
if new OFP will make a serious damage system it will receive many players from Arma2 i think. because in Arma2 soviet and russian vehicles and tanks are made weaker than they really are...
I hope next announced OFP will have a realistic damage system, which doesnt use hitpoint ystem like in arcade games, but will use material penetration and zones of damage, breaking part and good physics of damage ......
5. damage system is 1 | 0 style. when damaged - texture rapidly changes... no breaking parts, no breaking optics, no deformation, no flying turrets if ammo sector blown and so on.... damage system is poor in OFP:DR too , unfortunately.
but in OFP DR i like the picture, the sound, the villages with enterable houses and breaking glass....but animations in OFP DR are poor, however it is not the most important thing.
most important thing is damage system.... which is poor in bot games...
2. no capability to use weapons inside vehicles, no ability to board BMP/APC/Tank/heli/cargo plane and so on on the armor, not inside and be able to move/fire.
3. serious bugs with damage system for T-90 tank.
4. no modern systems, no modern tanks, no REA, no Shtora system (optic-electronic-IR-smoke defence)
i used to play Arma 2, but when I found out very serious bugs in the game, which developers don't even want to fix, I don't play it.
the bugs were:
1. there are no scripts to look into vehicles' and other objects' inventory globally, objects are local on each PC only, no functions to put or take something from that objects, though in VBS2 there are.
Arma2 reminds me so much of OFP1 !!! The scenery, forest, voice acting is just so similar. It has the same really, really specific atmosphere that reminds me of windows 98/95 for some reason! LOL
Opertaion flashpoint Dragon Rising all the way lol i love doing that one map online where you just get in a abrams tanks and merk everyone plus i think the tank on Arma 2 doesnt hardly look like what it does in real life LoL. Peace out :)
whats with the huge fight over destruction, Arma 2 has had destructible buildings since it came out...

Lets not forget that Arma 2 is basically VBS 2 which was simulation software created in conjunction with the USMC and the ADF.
That being said, if by "better gameplay" you mean more arcade like and less simulation oriented, you're going to prefer OFP2.

Arma 2 = Military Simulator
OFP2:DR = Realistic Game
Whichever is better is up to you. if your looking for the most true to war experience, Arma 2, if your looking for a video game that is about war and is realistic, Operation Flashpoint 2 is your game.

ofp2 = realistic war game? need shoot someone about 5 times to kill him = realistic? I dont think so, but graphics are not bad

@BigMete0r I believe that when he said "realistic" he meant in terms of graphics. But anyways, Arma 2 does have good graphics too is just that is not flashy in-your-face type of graphics like CoD and Crysis. Most of the textures resolution in Arma2 are top notch, Crysis quality.

@BigMete0r In real life it would take way more than 5 5.56mm rounds to kill a Chinese soldier because of the modern Body armour they wear. So basically, 5 is being generous.

If u started to talk about body armour and real life - a hit in body armour would throw you back and you will not be able to stand up for few seconds
BigMete0r 11 months ago
@BigMete0r You're not wrong there, but 5.56mm i'm pretty sure wont knock you down. It doesn't even knock people down who dont wear it, that's what soldiers say its not my opinion. They need to make it as though there are a few places in between the plates inside the body armour where there is a chance for the bullet to pass clean through and get into contact with the enemy's body. About the ballistic plates though, they're hard cookies to break through pal.
SSDogSoldier 11 months ago
@BigMete0r
very true. and ceramic body armor insert plates that our military wears is good for 1 to 2 rounds. not to mention the plates or smaller than a sheet of paper....most rounds dont even hit the plates. and the 5.56 isnt that bad of a round actually. good ballistics. of course theres better rounds out there but its not bad, and when some1 is shooting at you and you get hit in the plate. your adrenalina is going so fast you literally would fall over and hop back up
Sacreppin916 10 months ago
@BigMete0r it would also break a few ribs....and i dont want to bring this up but hav u ever played COD? yes its not as realistic....plus if it was realistic...if u got shot once u would probably be struggling to stay alive....need a casevac....and spend 5 to 9 months in recovery and theropy.....if u died....it would say game over you can never play it agian so.....in that case arma 2 isnt realistic either

Newton says that if you can fire a 5.56 round from the shoulder without getting thrown back on your butt, theres no chance that it will happen if you get hit on the chest with your vest absorbing 100% of the kinetic energy fired at point black.

@moicced Fuck newtons law... ever see a baseball player get hit with 100mph fastball and he falls over yet the pitcher who threw it amazingly is still standing?......It's not about about the physics of the force of the bullet, you fall over because you just fucking got shot and it hurts like HEELLLL!!! regardless of body armor. I've talked to a vet that was saved body armor and he walked away with broken ribs and a purple chest....... and a purple heart.

@moicced I still can't get over your rediculous comment about "Newton's Law".
1. Consider the fact the shooter knows 100% the force he is about to absorb and can ready himself for it, the target does not.
2. If someone were to shoot an AK while standing on 1 leg and touching their nose.....they will fall over.
3. Modern firearms are designed to have limited recoil (force on the shooter) and maximum stopping power (force on the target)
MrMattyFo 8 months ago
@MrMattyFo
1. True, in a firefight your not always standing up completely. So the bullet as less leverage and is even less likely to know you over. You know that its better to aim for the center of the mass whitch is lower than the shoulder
2. True, now get shot while standing on 1 leg you just proved Newton's law
3. The energy that is absorbed inside the system isnt transmitted to the bullet.
The shooted stays on his feets, the target gets less kinetic energy
Science win over medals everyday
moicced 8 months ago
@moicced Either way, you get shot wearing body armor you fall down, like i mentioned in my first comment. You fall because it hurts. I'm trying to explain real-world scenarios not a classroom experiment. I'm not smarter than newton or anything. But if you get shot, you will fall, not because of physics, because you could break ribs, seperate a shoulder, bruise a vital organ or god forbid..lose a testicule. Body armor can prevent deaths but rarely ever injury.

@BigMete0r not true the ammount of recoil dealt by the bullet would only be the same as what the weapon did to the handler

@SSDogSoldier there is NO way, that every soldier you encounter could take shots like they do in Dragon Rising... not forgetting it just feels completely arcadey, I'm glad I didn't pay full price for it, saved the money an bought ArmA II.

@DecodeAGamer I've seemed to have learned a lot in 3 months, I sound like a dope looking back at that comment. My bad brother, 5.56mm could clear body armour, not all rounds will be successful though. Depends on angle really doesn't it?

ARMA 2 i like cuz u can be so badass, my best moment was when i was playing a custom mission with my mates and they came under fire from like 5 tanks and i was in an A10 and im like INFUCKING COMING FELLAS! and let ripe taking everything out and everyone was like HEALLL YEA!

I understand that it looks like COD, but it holds one difference it doesnt play like COD and thats a sure fire winner for me.
I, being a mac user, dont have the luxury of pc games. I'll stick with my PS3 and even if i did have a PC i wouldnt use it for games. end of the day i'd feel a mug if I went out and bought a specific set of upgrades just to play a game on the pc where by buying a ps3 i'm gauranteed good graphics atleast for another 3/4 years.

arma2 has best community and mods and with the right settings, mods and filters looks 10x better. the default wep you see for arma2 here looks ugly, some look bitching. arma2 is best if you want realistic strategic tactical play... otherwise look to BC2 or MW2. game requires patience and skill.

if you just want multiplayer, arma 2 is for you. If you like more vehicles and character models, arma 2 is for you.
if you love realism, opfp 2 and arma 2 are both the game for you.
if you love better gameplay, opfp 2 is the game for you.
if you love better graphics and animations, opfp 2 is the game for you.

If you want realism Arma 2 is only option from these 2. If you want over hyped and buggy mix of realism and COD then buy OFP 2. Better gameplay? Hell no. Its boring as hell.

if new OFP will make a serious damage system it will receive many players from Arma2 i think. because in Arma2 soviet and russian vehicles and tanks are made weaker than they really are...
McArcher001 1 year ago
I hope next announced OFP will have a realistic damage system, which doesnt use hitpoint ystem like in arcade games, but will use material penetration and zones of damage, breaking part and good physics of damage ......
McArcher001 1 year ago
5. damage system is 1 | 0 style. when damaged - texture rapidly changes... no breaking parts, no breaking optics, no deformation, no flying turrets if ammo sector blown and so on.... damage system is poor in OFP:DR too , unfortunately.
but in OFP DR i like the picture, the sound, the villages with enterable houses and breaking glass....but animations in OFP DR are poor, however it is not the most important thing.
most important thing is damage system.... which is poor in bot games...
McArcher001 1 year ago
2. no capability to use weapons inside vehicles, no ability to board BMP/APC/Tank/heli/cargo plane and so on on the armor, not inside and be able to move/fire.
3. serious bugs with damage system for T-90 tank.
4. no modern systems, no modern tanks, no REA, no Shtora system (optic-electronic-IR-smoke defence)
McArcher001 1 year ago
i used to play Arma 2, but when I found out very serious bugs in the game, which developers don't even want to fix, I don't play it.
the bugs were:
1. there are no scripts to look into vehicles' and other objects' inventory globally, objects are local on each PC only, no functions to put or take something from that objects, though in VBS2 there are.
