New (sorta) game to try at the next SG

Post by Spey »

ok now before you all groan and throw another dart into the speyboard, the game is admittedly opflash (i know you love it really like i do)

but this time with a twist, its called opflash CTI

CTI stands for conquer the island, and you basically do exactly that.

take 2 teams of up to 9 players each, all commanders of there own squads (which you dont start with but can train along the way and replace)

one of these players is the overall team commander and has access to certain functions

one of these functions is (dramatic pause) building bases in real time (awaits sounds of omgawd) which brings the whole game into a sort of 3d eye view RTS feel.

the basic concept which is pretty much as it says on the tin is to conquer the island by capturing and defending each of the Towns on the game map (i think only Everon works at this time) each team can have a limit of 20 vehicles (so long as you can afford them: towns = income, garrisonned towns = more money) and as many static defenses as they can build (manned of course by there own AI team members natch) there is a respawn programmed in so when you die you automatically appear back at base or the nearest medical tent...and the overall game is generally quite fun (advanced time frames make for cool, day sliding into night type scenarios where black ops roam free and dance with elderberries)

very fun game indeed considering that due to the longevity of the game you will often need supply convoys and all sorts of transporting to keep it going


blech anyway its worth a try we did it at a small lan 4 vs AI and that was fun enough, even tho the ai werent building defenses in every town

so yatta if your interested

And will I have to go through the absurd Opflash patching system again? Or is there a decent upgrade patch now?

You see, you could have clicked the first link on Google, and then scrolled down to find the link to the CTI official site. Who knows, maybe you could have used the 'find' function :P

looks like a good mod that demands organisation, which I always wanted from Op Flash multiplayer, but never got. as long as I can fly a helicopter around though I'm happy.
