LOL Operation Flashpoint 3

OF2 and empire total war are now reasons why I will never pre-order a game ever again. These companies like shooting themselves in the foot it seems.
 
Lets put it this way... I got operation flashpoint dragons rising for free with some hardware and never even downloaded it... and I was a huge fan of the original.

I'm not sure why people praise ArmA II tho - I found it fairly buggy - not show stopping bugs just little annoying things where it seemed rushed, very clunky/awkward to play overly complicated in every aspect beyond the level of detail needed to make it a "milsim". What killed it for me tho was the head movement/turning simulation - sure you could turn some of it down especially the sickening bobbing - but thats something you compensate for in real life without even noticing so simulating it in a game makes NO sense I wish developers would stop doing that.

PC Zone UK :90%

It's not perfect, there are little problems and niggles that can be found if you look for them, but none of them spoil the game or ruin the playing experience.

Oh I do miss the old days of hours of the original Flashpoint coop.
Arma/Arma2 just don't feel the same, I liked the whole cold war
scenario of the 80's rather than the fake storyline behind Arma.

As for OFP2... no other comment than 'lol'. Don't play PC games anymore
due to being ruined by 'consolification'.

You are aware that you can switch head bob OFF ?

Yeah but at least they continue to support it and for me, they fixed all the bugs that mattered. Also, headbob? Turn it off, that is what I did. You say some of it? you can turn all head bob off completely.

The game is so simple once you know the controls and you don't need to use them all. It's been over a year now and they've really improved the performance of it all. People do over exaggerate how hard to control it really is.

Then again, I hated the game when I didn't bother to really try it for what it's worth.
 
The game simulates head movement (independant to body) and turning even with bob at "off" it still runs a certain amount in the head simulation, its mildly nauseating to play because of it - its something your brain/eyes automatically cancel out in real life.

Odd, when I turn Aiming Deadzone, Headbob and mouse smoothing off, I have none of this happens when turning.

Maybe you didn't turn all of it off?
