  1. So after removing the OGR thoughts from my mind and just taking the game for what it is I played through beta in Coop and did have a lot of fun. I'll try and purchase it for the £30 off the legit key sites, although that is my entire weeks food money gone. (urgh being student for 5 years sucks!)

    Ok I'm going to go out on a limb here and risk getting flamed. BUT...

    Isn't Arma one of those games that really doesn't look that great in game, but with a little photoshopping, screenshots from ArmA can be quite impressive....?

    You lost your limb......!!!!

  3. Good post, interesting points. At first I read with raven shield not since which almost gave me a heart attack :D

    The way they market it 'these days' maybe down to the fact that they can do bombastic, adult (and I'm with you in using that word loosely) things and have them aimed at a younger age range I guess around 8-16yrs could be because those children are able to purchase these games themselves now. Before walking into a store in that age group trying to get a 18+ Ubi title at least in the UK you would get turned away, now digital delivery is the simplest and easiest form to get your games so there is no barrier to entry and lots of kids have bank accounts now so they can buy these games simply by ticking the 'over 18' box.

    And we've seen from UBI competitor titles i.e action packed gun-wielding with some stern operator sound bites over the clip that this works COD will sell BF will sell and other action and adventure titles so I guess UBI follow that path toward success and that demographic is financially most fruitful. Also on the tangent we here and other like minded forums for the most part have a keen interest in military history or military science and/or are current or severing so I think we tend to ask and like to ask "How is this scenario achieved" be it the design of the game or indeed the game itself i.e how do we clear this rooms in Rogue spear, the killing of the tango's is neither here no there its the planning and how its executed is the rewarding part. Its personally what has always peaked my interest the why part as I am currently enrolled in Med school doing a biomedicine degree asking how/why is the part which is intriguing to me the most and I think why I have such a keen interest in military history/science. 

    Indeed though as you pointed out, lack of interest in military science could be it, and as business I suppose I understand the viability of copy paste sell it to the masses of the demographic your after as it does work. Just my two cents on the matter but that said the games they come out with I have fun with for a while and uninstalled and move on, much as audience they sell it to will, difference is they'll get the next iteration the following year and the year after that whereas from my point of view if I had to stick with 4 games from now onward, Rogue Spear and OGR would be two of them really feel no need for anything else and that is testament to RSE.

  4. Happy belated birthday rocky I missed it all was away we had massive party plans :D

    Thanks for all the work you continue to put in to support great games and keep like minded people in tough I imagine it may come at some personal cost at times, but we all very very much appreciate it (also goes for the rest of the team and modders).

    Cheers!

    Finally had some time to properly view these from start to finish.

    Jeza, these playthroughs are absolutely beautiful! Mind if I share them on ModDB (already did :harhar:)? Seriously, great GREAT(!) work!

    BTW, that FOV you use seems to be different from any of the ones in Richard's mods. Care to share?

    Yeah i noticed is well, wasnt me lol its still the 3rd_person_OTS_64bit version. It was a bug I think with using the special soldier and that certain weapon setup of the sniper rifle and MK18....I think......or I did something without knowing I did something.
