I mean, I stole some T-72's a couple times, but for the most part it was a boots on the ground campaign.

Is it just me? Or is it even harder to sneak into enemy lines in ArmA? Some of the missions I find to be somewhat impossible. The side mission to sneak in and blow up enemy armor I found to be near impossible. You couldn't get near that base with all the foot traffic without being spotted, and the enemy didn't even have NV goggles.

The sunsets were sometimes better in OFP too. I remember the dark red sky.
Amen to that. The story in OFP was TONS better than what it is in ArmA. Especially loved the ending mission with everyone getting together to have an cold one and remember the past days.

I guess ArmA is not bad for an engine...
Yep, it's a good engine, like was in OFP... oh wait... ArmA has 90% unchanged engine from OFP. :p

PS. THe Harrier is the ultimate explore the islands aircraft. Take it out, and head out into the world. You can land it pretty much anywhere and it only takes a small strip to get it off the ground - any short stretch of road will do.
Just might re-install ArmA and get into the Harrier a bit more. Just quickly tried it. :hmm:
