Post by: O Neil on 11 Mar 2003, 07:42:58

Hey

I'm sure you've all been watching CNN lately? Then you would have seen the recent Daizy Cutter bomb:

i asked about this earlier but i dont think anyone commented :-[
i agree it would be better than the nuke they got now i mean you would survive it
but it would require a C130 drop it for realism and i saw someone was working on a cargo drop script or something it might be possible

i didn't realize you could script the indiscriminate destruction of all trees and foliage in an area.  If you can that would be sweet

Hmm the BLU-87 is definately not a weapon suited to OFP...Just as a nuke isn't. It just doesn't fit in with the feel of the game.It's a battelfield simulator....not a "let's just finish it off with one big bang simulator" ::) :-\

Well, OpFlash is based for realism, so there's no reason why they can't have it in (Not saying that OpFlash should have it though)

I say pop it in but make it so it can only destroy like half of Desert Island. 8)

Would be an excellent ENDGAME weapon - if you don't finish all the sabotage in time, get that wrecked AA gun operational etc etc

Would love the script for this sort of thing  ;)

you would have to fly quite high in the c-130 not 2 be intercepted by fighters....

The military used daisy cutters to clear LZs in the jungles of vietnam.  So I think for missions like that, it would be pratical, just think of a cutscene!
