Sorry but i hat to start a new topic because theres so many dont know whats what anymore.

The first mission iam going to make and play over xbox live is the D-Day landings at Normandy http://forums.bistudio.com/oldsmileys/biggrin_o.gif

If i haven't heard anything about ofp xbox by the end of april 2005 then iam heading on down to codemasters to see whats going on http://forums.bistudio.com/oldsmileys/biggrin_o.gif , I will probly get beaten up but its worth it.

[x Flashpoint x]

Will you be able to make your tanks and airplanes respawn in the missions that you make for play over xbox live, because i would like to make a mission that last for a while instead of just a couple of mins.

What i mean is when you make a mission for online play in the mission editor will you be able to implant respawn for all your player units and armor ? will there be a respawn option in the mission editor ?

Iam starved of info please feed me http://forums.bistudio.com/oldsmileys/biggrin_o.gif

Ive just been over at gamepsot looking at the ofp xbox pics again, and i think with all this time they have had to make this game just right i think alot of you will be pleased with the game when it comes out.

I just have this feeling that they have taking so long because they wanted to give us the best possible game for the xbox instead of releasing it 2 years ago.

I for one can't wait for it to sit on my shelf at home


Thank you BI & Codemasters for not releasing this game 2 years ago    http://forums.bistudio.com/oldsmileys/biggrin_o.gif

Recent game development history has proven games have high percentage of failing when they are rushed into market.

So, with OFP, OFP:R, and VBS bringing them good revenue, I'm sure they recognize they have sufficient time and capital to ensure that development is done right, along with the very large majority of the OFP community backing them.

Hmmm, it's been a joke for a long time now. Both for OFP Xbox and OFP 2.

I guess we some day will learn why they have kept us in the dark for so long, and some day we will sit down and play OFP on the Xbox... and OFP 2 on PC.

Until that happens, it's not easy being a commited member to the OFP community... but we're hanging on in here! http://forums.bistudio.com/oldsmileys/smile_o.gif

Well, at least we know that both OFP Xbox and OFP 2 is being worked on still. At least if what placebo said in the recent interview at hardwired.hu is to be trusted;


Quote[/b] ]Q: Shall we welcome release of OFP2 on the PC platform first with console ports following later, or have you already started cross-platform development?

A: We continue to work on the Xbox version of Operation Flashpoint, as well as the PC version of the sequel, that's enough for us to focus on at this moment in time.

Quote[/b] ]The aim is for 16 players at the moment.

We haven't announced anything about E3 yet so you will have to wait and see

Split screen won't work unfortunately as the screen has to be fully utilised per person. System link though maybe a viable alternative

Not much, but some info on the multiplayer aspect of the Xbox version.

I knew 4 players would be way too little.

2MB download is more than enough, you only need a large upload if you are hosting the game, 2MB download would easily cope with 24 players on line if you weren&#39;t hosting and the person hosting had 512K upload or higher.

Still no publisher, but work on PC sequel, Xbox port continues.

Bohemia Interactive, developers of Operation Flashpoint, haven&#39;t committed to a new deal with publisher Codemasters, which means the company doesn&#39;t exactly have control over the future of their series.

As evidenced by an open letter celebrating the game&#39;s fourth anniversary, however, penned by company co-founder Marek Spanel, that&#39;s not slowing them down. They may still work with Codemasters in the future, but it&#39;s far from a sure deal.

The company is currently deep into development of the sequel to Operation Flashpoint, though obviously, it&#39;s not known if it will actually bare the number two when released. "But whatever names we will use our dedication to complex, realistic simulation and large open ended game environments will remain the same," said Spanel.

Besides the PC-centric sequel, Bohemia is also prepping an Xbox version of their shooter. Even though the console provided a series of technical limitations, no features have been removed in the port. "We&#39;re confident no other game on console offers this level of realism, scope or freedom." The team is currently looking for a publisher.

OPERATION FLASHPOINT LIVES ON IN ARMED ASSAULT

Bohemia Interactive clears up the confusion surrounding the Operation Flashpoint sequel

Operation Flashpoint 2 doesn&#39;t exist - in name at least - developer of the original title Bohemia Interactive has confirmed in a open letter to the community. Rather, the spirit and premise set out in Operation Flashpoint lives on in the developer&#39;s E3-announced PC military combat game Armed Assault and a second un-named project.

In a nutshell, neither of these games are slapped with the Operation Flashpoint 2 name because Codemasters owns the Operation Flashpoint intellectual property. Bohemia has yet to secure publishing deals for either titles at this time, but presumably if Codemasters was to get involved then a quick renaming of at least one of the developer&#39;s latest PC projects would ensue.


"...unless Codemasters were to publish any of our upcoming games (which is still a possible scenario) it definitely wouldn&#39;t be named Operation Flashpoint. But whatever names we will use our dedication to complex, realistic simulation and large open ended game environments will remain the same," Bohemia explains in the open letter.

Operation Flashpoint on Xbox -referred to as "the special new version of our military combat game for Xbox" - is touched on in the developer&#39;s open letter as well, Bohemia revealing that this game is almost done and dusted.

"Considering the system&#39;s [Xbox&#39;s] limited memory we&#39;re really proud that we haven&#39;t removed a single feature, nor did we limit any aspect of the original PC military game and we fully kept the spirit of the original whilst managing to improve the graphics as well improving and adding to many aspects of realism, environment and ambient life," Bohemia says of the console game.

It continues: "It&#39;s different to anything console gamers have ever seen and that&#39;s another reason for us to finally have this game published. We&#39;re confident no other game on console offers this level of realism, scope or freedom. Playing a realistic military simulation in your living room, sitting on a comfortable chair, watching a large TV screen and listening to high performance surround sound speakers is definitely a unique feeling, even if you&#39;ve already played the game a lot on PC."

As for Bohemia&#39;s future in connection with PC, well, Armed Assault is the developer&#39;s next game to grace that platform. Bohemia reckons it&#39;ll get the game out the door by the end of the year, the title delivering an experience similar to Operation Flashpoint but boasting a brand new engine and ramped up visuals and naturally a brand new campaign that&#39;s "set in the recent past".

Bohemia additionally states it keeps in mind "all of the great community content created so far [for Operation Flashpoint] and we&#39;ll try to make it as easy as possible to convert and use any OPF content in ArmA. Good news for addon makers is that porting their work into ArmA will help prepare them for future releases of our engine, which in the coming years will expand over many areas the ability of our technology."

xboxworld mag has a good review this month.


Here&#39;s what they said about the game.



There have been many sleepless nights spent waiting for this gameto land on our door step, especially given that just prior to E3, codemasters inexplicably chose to drop it, despite it being a remake of the 1.5 million selling pc game. Poor fools.....
Our first impressions are that this going to be fantastic in all departments.
Its very smooth, ridiculously beautiful, nicely gritty, frightening, atmopsheric, and has more vehicles than you can shake a copy of GTA at.
Were a bit worried that the first person view might be a little limited , and the helicoptors could do with being a little more responsive, but the team command system is excellent and the action beats GHOST RECON 2 petty much hands down.

Right that out of the way heres a few more bits they say about the game.

In this game, its all about the distances.
Each of the five 142km-square islands loads in seconds and is completely seamless, whether you&#39;re flying, walking, or driving.


The terrain is expansive, rolling and beautyful - even when its pissing down with rain.
There are rarely designated &#39;levels&#39; [ only desertion perimeter miles from the action ], so if you need to assault a position, you can feel free to box round it and attack 15 mins later from another angle...


Theres some pics to go with the review and they look good   http://forums.bistudio.com/oldsmileys/wink_o.gif


The only thing wrong in the mag is that they say it has 32 player co op and Adversarial modes.

Operation Flashpoint 2 and ArmA are the two games without a publisher.

Codemasters is likely Publishing the XBox version reguardless of the conflicts going on now


http://img.gamespot.com/gamespot/images/2003/all/boxshots2/561091.jpg

If it has a box cover, chances are this means Codemasters has already put funding towards making box cases for the game.

I hope its out in October or its going to run into games like Far Cry, Battlefield 2: Modern Combat, star Wars Battlefront 2.

Here is the OXBM review UK


Operation Flashpoint developer Bohemia Interactive revealed the first screens of its as-yet unnamed, military combat game&#39; this month, and we had the strangest sense of deja vu.
since codemasters dropped operartion flashpoint from its release list, the bohemia boys have gone back to the drawing board and rejigged the title, although since codies has the rights to the flashpoint name, when we finally see its release the game will be called something entirely different.
but regardless of the fact that this could just be a reworked flashpoint, the new title boast an incredible array of online and game modes.
There are up to 50 different missions throughtout the game that can all be played online, either as co op or versus scenarios.
you&#39;ll also be able to add to these maps by creating your own, and uploading them for people to play, either as clan maps or multiplayer modes.
If Bohemia&#39;s new game is just a renamed flashpoint , were quietly optimistic about it.
When we last saw flashpoint, although graphically it still had vast ground to make up, the calibra and design of missions structure was enough to keep our interest.
With 40 or so vehicles, all of which could be used in any capacity throughout online missions, plus battle zones that sprawled over some 100 square kilometres, the scope for just what could be achieved online was incredible.
The freedom to simply chop and change between vehicles was also a major plus-point.
Lets hope, if this is flashpoint, bohemia has been wise enough to stick to its lofty ideals.
The time we&#39;ve had to wait should make for a scorching title once its released.
