Revision as of 20:31, 15 August 2011
It's a bit silly categorizing weapons by side, because some of the weapons are used by two or more sides or don't specifically have a 'side'. Anyone mind if I categorize them by type instead? --MattyDienhoff 06:27, 6 May 2008 (UTC)

Shouldn't the AKS-74U be a AKMSU because it has a 7.62x39mm magazine, metalic finish, and an underfolding stock? User:AK-74Fan 13:31, 17 January 2010 (UTC)
In-Game AK-74's
I was looking at the screenshots of the AK-74's in this game, and it almost looks as if they used the fake AK-74's seen in GoldenEye.

- Yeah, the only difference is the one in the game also has the downward-angled stock.
- My theory is they modeled the AK-47, and then, to save time, they just re-skinned it and added a muzzle brake to make an AK-74. --MattyDienhoff 11:39, 8 December 2009 (UTC)
Good job, guys.
Page looks nice.-protoAuthor 22:09, 17 January 2010 (UTC)
Question about template
Hi, Awesome page that you have here.
Love the layout, do you mind posting where you brought the design from?
All the best CrogBromy
- Thanks! If you mean the way the weapons are categorized, I did that from scratch. --MattyDienhoff 09:56, 22 January 2010 (UTC)
Arma: Cold War Assault
As of recently, original Operation Flashpoint became known as Arma: Cold War Assault (complete with a new box art and is now part of BIS' own Arma franchise instead of CM's Operation Flashpoint franchise that includes, developed by CM, Dragon Rising and Red River.
Arma: Cold War Assault on BIS site & on Steam.
Which begs the question: should we move the page to Arma: Cold War Assault (which is also version 1.99 that anyone can update their existing Operation Flashpoint: Cold War Crisis to) or leave it as it was originally released.
Personally, I'm leaning towards the moving option since BIS got the rights to this game back and this is how it called now, complete with the latest update to the original version. --Masterius 14:42, 15 August 2011 (CDT)
