I'm an OFP vetran too. I bought the UK release since I was aware of the EU's launched version still having some issues. And there as still things BI are addressing, but as a whole it blooming rocks. Bought two copies, my 15yr old son has been playin OFP right up till last week for YEARS. He loved OFP and he thinks this is brilliant. Now, he's played Gears of War, he's got a respectable gaming taste. But he still fires up OFP and gets right into it. The atmosphere is very much the same on ArmA. Newer graphic engine is actually nicer than some would give credit. Methinks that 'NextGen' train of thought is spilling out onto the PC game reviews. trust me if you've got a reasonable graphic card and CPU (PCIE works better on this than AGP obviously) and ram to hold it all together then your set for a great War SIMULATOR. BF2142, GRAW, BF2 players and vets may not enjoy this. But if you liked OFP (at all!) then get this. An essential purchase for me, and I would really recommend any OFP fans to get it too. You can also now join multiplayer games mid-game! Old ofp wouldn't let you!
It rocks!
