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 · 25-03-2004 04:01AM

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 · 25-03-2004 05:42AM

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 · 29-03-2004 07:58PM

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

electrofelix · 30-03-2004 02:23PM

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

nadir · 04-04-2004 07:17PM

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 · 04-04-2004 07:37PM

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)

po0k · 05-04-2004 10:20AM

nadir's talking about Linux.

Asok · 05-04-2004 10:46AM

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

Anima · 05-04-2004 02:58PM

haha

Fobia · 05-04-2004 06:06PM

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.

po0k · 05-04-2004 08:28PM

http://www.winehq.org/ - quetzal

Fobia · 05-04-2004 09:01PM

I was replying to Asok's comment

Fobia · 12-04-2004 09:05PM

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

electrofelix · 13-04-2004 12:30PM

well, sxyer

any word on said game?

po0k · 13-04-2004 01:51PM

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

nadir · 13-04-2004 09:01PM

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

po0k · 14-04-2004 08:25AM

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 · 14-04-2004 05:44PM

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 · 14-04-2004 07:28PM

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

po0k · 15-04-2004 08:33AM

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