I'm afraid things are going a bit haywire here !
This thread is about ww2 movies which we could use in OFP missions, and that's it !
Mind you, personal and manichean interpretations of one of the darkest and most complicated periods of history sound dubious to me. Thank whoever you want, the Nazis lost, and that's what matters most.
Back to the topic, what I find interesting in "Private Ryan" and "Band o' Brothers" is once again the CHAOTIC and DIRTY aspect of combat. The thing I like least in OFP and missions made is the clean, orderly, aseptised way the plots are handled.
Go there, activate such trigger, such thing happens, it's all so unlikely ! Think about it, triggers activating when east or west is no longer present in the area are totally surrealistic ! On the field, how are you even supposed to know that the enemy has actually retreated ? Why shouldn't there be anyone hiding left, just as snipers did in ww2 ?
Things are always out of control to some extent, and I think the biggest challenge for a mission-maker is to inject chaos in their projects. That's why I would like to see BOB or PR reenacted in ww2 missions.
Ig.
