That One Time Arma Was on the Original Xbox

- Arma on the Original Xbox. Operation Flashpoint Elite is a weird Original Xbox game. Operation Flashpoint Elite was a next level milsim released on the Original Xbox. It is pretty crazy that this game was ever on a sixth generation. Plus I learned that drama between Bohemia Interactive and Codemasters lead us to having the Arma series we know today. Who knows what would have happened to Arma if Bohemia and Codemasters never broke up.
I thought my fellow Arma 2 and Arma 3 fans would get an absolute kick out of Arma being on an Original Xbox. Absolutely blew my mind. So please enjoy guys!

OFPR / ARMA CWA does have inventory management, though the screen is a bit different between the PC and Xbox. The AI overall is actually some of the best that's been made. It actually aims in a realistic fashion, it can navigate decently well on land, air, and water with whatever vehicle, it gains and loses knowledge of the other entities in its environment, etc.. Most of the problems like movement are down to other deficiencies like animations.
This is how I got into the Arma series ironically enough, and it was pretty crazy to have all those features back then. I remember people looked over it because of the jank that comes with all Bohemia games and couldn't get passed it. Shame really because it was really a fun game, especially with friends!
Great video btw! I was pretty surprised to see it pop up, mainly because I haven't even thought of this game in 14+ years
I personally cannot believe a game of this scale existed on the console. PC it makes sense, but on a console in 2005?
Glad you enjoyed the video! I'm planning to make more videos on obscure old games.
The little 'i love that noise' message gets me, at 17:04. Ngl that was the 'notification' sound for Arma up until arma 3 and it still gets my attention when I hear it. It's a really good alert hahaha, I miss it.
Exactly that's why I love that noise so much. I love Arma a lot.
I've been playing a little Arma here and there lately. Super good alert noise love it a lot
Thanks for watching man!
Wow this one was a doozy to get finished. Hope you guys enjoy!
Like and subscribe to show some love if you enjoyed the video!✌❤☮
Have a great day everyone!!!
I am ex military/Combat Medic. I prefer campaign,....also your opinion on O F Dragon rising? I have that one. What is your score for O F Red River? Thanks
@@ajaxslamgoody9736 I haven't played those ones, but I heard they're made by an entirely different company.
there was a inventory also in operation flashpoint
in resistance its important, because you can choose your loadout before a mission
to see your inventory you go to map and there you have your little notepad where you can go to your inventory
you can also drop thing in that way
Oh ok I tried to use the gear button when I went back and tested and nothing came up. The more you know!
@@thesogo64 gear button?
there is no gear button in operation flashpoint
you have to press the map button
the one that shows you the map
there you have that little book with all your mission objects, you can switch the pages and one is for your inventory
@@MrBlonde294 I've been playing Arma since Arma 2 that's why I said I tried via the gear button
why red hammer wasnt included was because it was made by codemasters so it ends up being a rights issue, but funny thing is i did have op flashpoint originally on the pc and the elite version brought back some memories
Exactly!
Ai in ofp was actually really advanced. If you make more long range realistic combat they can flank 5 km even to get to their objectives
My first video game on PC, this game is absolutely a banger ! You made a great informative video about OFP : Elite 💯
I absolutely love this idea for videos, there's a lot of weird console ports from that era and a retrospective like this I think is so cool. I never got to play Arma since I only have a console, but during the 2013 era of TH-cam gaming content I was absolutely obsessed with DayZ. Keep up the great work man, you're hard work doesn't go unnoticed. Can't wait for what's next. ✌️❤️☮️
Making these videos comes from a place of joy I have within myself whenever I encounter these older gems, or for the gems I knew as a kid.
The DayZ video days were awesome. I need to make a video on DayZ at some point.
Thanks for all the support man!
Hope you are having a good week✌️❤️☮️
Parents bought this to me for PC when I was a kid. I was so happy :)
Well back then games like that as far as we had was the OG Ghost Recon, the OG Rainbow Six series, OG spec ops series, Viet Cong series and Socom series then for some weird reason they all became Linear by the PlayStation 3 and 360 era. Of course operation Flashpoint being the granddaddy to all
A group called insignia has revived Xbox live on the original Xbox, I saw video of a game night recently and they were playing this… blown away by how much it looked like arma. They were having deathmatch with double barrel shotguns and pistols 😂
Sounds fun!
Very good video, by your editing i thought you were a much more famous youtuber! Your comparison about arma 2 is on point. I've played that game for a long time as well. Or rather, I still am. There is still a community unwilling to let go, archiving all the mods. If you ever decide to play arma 2 again, you should try the Smart AI MIX with cwr2 (operation flashpoint port)
Once I decided to make the decision to watch this video my life improved significantly
The map maker in timesplitters 2 and 3 was a lot of fun, but I don't know if the custom maps worked in online multiplayer. I think you could add mission objectives and ai enemies. Probably not as in-depth as the editor in flashpoint elite, and smaller scale.
That's the one series I've slept on...
ofp elite could be a bridge game, or it coulda been bohemias attempt on consoles since theres more money there, or both
*( ͡ ͜ʖ ͡ ) I never got my xbox that I asked for back in 1999. That was in december 13th. Lol.*
Never asked for it. But I wanted it so bad because of me being so giddy with excitement.
I wish we could play this on XBOX SERIES X. 😢
Wish they would add this to the newer consoles. Man i miss this game
P.S. - you can use a controller when driving or flying in OFP on PC too
Dang really? That's cool
@2:58 Rockstar used be famous for this, the PS2 got so many, many titles that were originally only made to test out mechanics and minigames for San Andreas and GTAIV. And they're pretty decent games, too.
Nintendo also did this a little bit, but mostly for the original Nintendo DS (and mostly due to their uncertainty when originally releasing the device). Except instead of releasing original new IPs, they typically crammed Yoshi into the titles or some other license, like Chibi Robo, and unlike Rockstar, knowing that their mechanic wasn't going to be used in anything major, Nintendo's devs typically half-assed and farted something out so they could focus on working on something else, ultimately just watering down the overall quality of a lot of their own franchises. Specifically Yoshi.
Exactly. I absolutely love Max Payne 3. At the time it has the craziest graphics, shooting mechanics and gore I had ever seen
@@Bendilin Oddly I always felt that the Yoshi games weren't as high quality, so this is interesting to learn. I never actually played Chibi Robo but probably should lol.
@@thesogo64 You want my copy of Chibi Robo: Park Patrol? It's utter trash, no litter jokes intended. I can't sell it for even $2 and only keep it as a spare DS case if I need one.
@@Bendilin wasn't the GameCube one pretty good at least? Also if enough of my friends on here want to send me random stuff I'd probably make a PO box or something.
SOCOM: US Navy Seals released on a console in 2002, though it wasn't a port of a PC game but made directly for the PS2, it still predated Mass Effect's Kinect update allowing you to give your NPC squad members actual voice commands by a decade. The only thing to come anywhere close to the SOCOM titles for me are the SWAT games. It was crazy, just like with the DreamCast, the PS2 would connect to a website and from the website you would select your server or what you wanted to do. SOCOM was hosted by GameSpy so you got this ugly neon green on black website to connect online with with a giant GameSpy logo in your face.
SOCOM, as far as I remember, lacks the ability to make custom missions though, let alone custom anything.
I should really revisit socom. I played it as a kid but based on your reply I 100% never fully grasped the game.
Hilariously I used the included microphone from socom 2 for a solid year when my PC headset died when I was like 12 😂
By the way thanks for the wonderful comment! Always a joy to see your comments my friend ✌️❤️☮️
I just got it for my xbox and i find it amazing tho alittle difficult
Im gonna give it a go this evening, would be interesting to see some multiplayer action on this through insignia but i think thats gonna be a long shot
I actually started playing this on Xemu, having always been curious to how this compared to the PC version. Actually impressed at what they were able to pull off! Just a same it came out when it did, a lot of people found it dated. Not helped by the fact it came out mere months before the 360 released.
It's pretty crazy how good the graphics are when you raise the internal resolution. That's how I got the thumbnail for the video.
@@thesogo64 Oh yeah. That being said the biggest turn off for me is the different voices. I'm just way too used to the original OFP voices that hearing different ones just feels so weird to me.
@@BuckySeifert Yes, the voice acting in OFP Elite is terrible compared to the original OFP. It was probably Codemasters that were responsible for all the voice acting in the original OFP. That's why BIS removed all of it in OFP Xbox.
If my friends and I had known about this we woulda had a ball. I’m gonna put this on my modded xbox tomorrow
duuuuude killer video, super informative and stuffff
Thanks man! My only regret is that I didn't remember to add a section on the graphics until it was uploaded already 😂
Good stuff lad
Gunna stop saying arma armed assault lol ARMA is fine
🐬
Ghost recon is better
😳
