Armed Assault teh suck?

[Pooh21]

Just got this and not impressed.

Apparently a PK machine gun vs a city bus driver behind his Chobham windshield is useless.

So I monkey around with the editor more. Aim double tap against an eastern soldier with my M249. Run up. oh this is promising, there is holes where I shot him. How fun I think. I fire up a another mission in the editor.

Me with a dragunov against  a column of US n00bs. Bam!Bam!Bam! giving headshots down the line, they all spin and fall the exact same frikken way. Well back to the point The last guy I shoot in 3 different spots and run up to look at the holes,:mad:  they are the exact same frikken holes as when I shot him with the machine gun

Vehicles have 2 states. Destroyd or not. Flying is the suck. No ragdoll physics. I wanted to see the gunner flyout  the top of the hummer when I rpged it.

Flying is really the suck I mean arcade suck but moreso. Flashpoint was cool. This isnt. Driving sucks. Cant crash into things cars come in 2 modes, Moving or no. No damage on any of the vehicles.  Well this game sucks and it is time to eat my dinner and drink beer, good day.

Helicopters can have fuel leaks, no vapor trails let you know
Glass as I already said is made out of adamantium
No Penetration.
Explosions are not good.
No Vehicle physics
Badguys have x ray vision.
Sounds and gunshots are underwhelming.
A rubber boat does not sink when you strafe it with a sopwith camel
Trees do not break helicopter rotor blades.
Cardoors are proofed up to 20mm
.50 cal does not penetrate cardoors
Takes 50 shots with a 50 cal against a commie jeep, driver casually hops out when I accidentally shoot a tire and headshots me with 1 shot.
No penetration
No hit sprites
No Recoil
Bad nade throwing+ bad nade animation+no cooking off of nades+ bad flashpoint explosions making you wonder if nade has in fact gone off or no.
No Ragdoll physics
Helicopters do a backwards loop of death at 5 mph and explode.
No visual damage on vehicles til 5th bullet hit, then vehicle recieves a rather unhealthy coating of rust.


realism indeed.

Get patch 1.05 -- a lot of the irritating issues (omniscient headshot AI, impossibly bad helo FM) are supposedlz fixed.

Visual effects are not going to be as good as dedicated SP games, nor, for that matter, your favorite MP games. Sound, well, someone's gonna have a decent sound pack soon.

Penetration is modeled; but the visual effects remain pretty much those from OFP. Yeah, that means that dying is just another animation (and an irritating one at that).

will that make it after all that a fun game? Bah. I dunno. But it's enough to bring me back to the desk and try to make it a fun game.
