I want anyone who's even remotely interested to buy this game.
It works out at €12 delivered through your letterbox, and hasve every official patch, add-on and expansion ready to go.

If you don't have a credit card I'd be up for doing a bulk order in the near future.

I've always wanted to have a dirty great big game of this and damn it, I will have my way!

Op flash is quite brilliant. If you like counter-strike, you'll love Operation Flashpoint.

I heartily endorse this product and/or service.

Only thing is, I ordered mine there yesterday, not a hope will it arrive for Friday, in time for GL lanage

DRakE

op flash is too slow and boring.

having to take a cross country trek wearing a random shrubbery just so you can get shot by an unseen sniper isn't my idea of fun.

po0k

you're just shit at it

And you shouldn't take a cross-country walk.
Hop in a jeep or a tank if you want a bit of firepower, or keep in cover if you don't want to get shot.

Best OpFlash map i ever played was a ctf map with a runway. Good stuff

Fobia

I'll definately be in for the bulk order if I can come up with the money and hdd space

electrofelix

will buy if you can get you hands on it for me syxer

nadir

I got it running in wine and winex, wine gives better rsults. 3 problems though. Mouse is a bit all over the place, some of the textures act wierd, and i dont seem to be able to install the ipdates. However i was talking to the guys over on winehq, apparently alot of the problems boil down to safedisk - this copy protection thingie. which theys ay they will have cracked on the next release, so looking good.

Fobia

safedisk used to be the bane of my existence, but now there's software that can easily bypass most versions of it (/me pats daemon tools and clonecd)

nadir's talking about Linux.

Asok

You know you can run linux in the system tray...........or so quetzal told me.

Anima

haha

Fobia

vmware, http://www.vmware.com/ . One of their products allows you to run virtual machines on your computer, one of these can run linux if you want.

I was replying to Asok's comment

Fobia

also, http://www.colinux.org/ is better then vmware, but I've only just discovered it thanks to the help of Fuller.

electrofelix

well, sxyer

any word on said game?

po0k

I don't have any money at the moment, or a credit card.

nadir

hmm, /me has a credit card somewhere, and is getting money soon.
now wtf is that card.

po0k

nice link quetzal.
But one thing.
RE: nadir having trouble running flashpoint;
it's because he's running it under Wine/WineX under Linux natively.
VMWare/COLinux etc. aren't much use in that case as if you were to boot into windows by default so you could play games and only use Linux through VMWare/Colinux you'd be effectively getting a nice Nissan Skyline, ripping out the engine and slapping a 2-stroke 50cc engine inside it.

And besides, I'm pretty sure that Flashpoint works fairly well under Wine/WineX

I assume the VMware and Colinux posts were in response to Asok and running Loobix in the systray

Fobia

yes, it had nothing to do with nadir's problems whatsoever, I had just heard of the idea of vmware at gl9 and mentioned it in a conversation, which Asok was commenting on there, so I took the time to back up my statement s'all.

Asok

and indeed he did back up his statements and i learned something new.

po0k

I'm glad you both learned something.
I hope you also learn something from the following selection of subliminal images...
