    OT: ArmA II

    in Lock On: Flaming Cliffs 1 & 2

    Posted

    Anyone done the Sniper mission on Arma where you have to hit the Officer on the building. Its quite a good mission about halfway through the campaign.:thumbup:

     

    The one with the secluded hotel between two mountains, right?

     

    It was quite an easy mission.

    Although I managed to "kill" the chopper, by accelerating time (wanted to reach my extraction point faster) and it crashed on a hill, because it didn't turn fast enough. Oops! :D

     

    ArmA, like OFP before it, is best in multiplayer with a good squad. :D

    Problem is that I don't have enough time to play its missions and I opt for BF2 (don't kill me! :P) instead.

    UN Squadron was one of my favorite games ever on the snes. From attacking an aircraft carrier on tank treads in the desert or dropping bombs on other airplanes. It was a seriously fun game

     

    Fun thing is, the aircraft carrier on treads was also in the manga Area 88. :P

     

    Well, it lasted for a few chapters, I don't remember how it got destroyed though.

    Off-topic:

    Area 88 was also known as "U.N. Squadron" in Europe/US.

    It was for Arcade coin-ops and the SNES (had it on SNES :P).

     

    The series linked by Colt40Five is the remake series, which is the 3rd version of Area 88. :)

     

    1) There was a manga version which is the only complete story (hard to find in english, "found" it in Korean and the english script of the last chapters so I know what happens (in a way...), but the artwork is old manga style, close to Lupin the 3rd :P.

     

    2) The OVA version which was 3 long episodes.

    Artwork was better than the manga, had a different ending, smaller story, quite violent at times.

     

    3) The remake anime series which still doesn't explore the whole story and also alters it a bit, but has the best artwork (well, it's the newest :P) and best (if unrealistic at times) airplane combat. ;)

     

    There is also info about it in the Wikipedia.

     

    On-Topic:

    Sometime, I must get some of the Macross episodes, there are quite a few series around. I remember when Robotech (US title for first (?) Macross series) aired in Greece.

    Had a nice intro music. :)

    And some scenes from later series too, If I'm not mistaken. :P

    Agony of video making

    in Screenshots and Videos

    Posted

    Unless I'm mistaken (and please don't take my head if I am...), even with satellite view on from the mission editor, you can't see how the objects will appear in-game. Although I remember in Flanker that you could.

    I usually check them by launching the mission.

    As for agony, I'm trying to create another video too, but I don't have enough inspiration for the scenes. :P
