Quote:...You see all the action on the map.
So youâre saying âthat sounds pretty much like an arcade shooter to meâ, right? Well, yes, youâre correct. But donât fret, my tactical-minded friends. You have options to turn off all the aids, make it more of a simulation. Youâll get no waypoints (youâll have to use the compass and read the map), youâll get no friend or foe markings, etc. The only thing on your map will be your mission objective goal locations.
It's funny when people criticize DR for a certain feature, conveniently forgetting that the exact same arcade stuff is also available in Arma 2. You can turn on all kinds of map and hud markers to see enemies, there is a setting for auto aim, extended armor that makes you able to survive a point blank headshot etc...
Turning visual helpers off won't help much when guns have no recoil and f.e. aimpoint always stays in the center of the screen, even if you're running or firing, much like in Battlefield 2. Right now it looks to me more like a sequel to Project Reality mod than a sequel to OFP.
And then that infamous stuff with "I got shot in the head - it's nothing serious but I'm bleeding badly" (applies medkit).
