Rax, thanks for the feedback. It helps to set better expectation about the game. I'll continue to give the demo a try and see how my interest with the game evolves, keeping in mind the bad setup they currently have for multiplayer. I have to say that I am a little disapointed but no game is perfect. Right ? In a shooter, I want ease of use to play with other people on the internet, as well as good gameplay. So far, I think OFP seems to offer good gameplay but lacks on multiplayer. I'll probably wait for Aliens vs Predator 2. That game rocks and will offer excellent multiplayer setup. If you guys didn't check it out, you should. It's awesome. Can't wait to play hunter game : one species as hunter, one as prey.

I don't own OFP. You see, the feature I am most interested is multiplayer play. Especially co-op. Based on what I've read so far, there seems to be a few issue with multiplayer games on the internet. A lot of people are complaining about the gamespy service. The fact that you can't join a game in-progress really sucks. How are we going to be able to play a game with 16+ players, you gotta wait for all of them ? F*ck that ! So my question is, who's been playing multiplayer so far and how is the game experience ? Is it any good ? What's the point of being able to drive tank, helicopter and all kind of goodies if the game only host 6 players(random number here, but realistic since you gotta wait for other guys before starting the game) ? This is a tactical infantry game right ? How fun can it be to play 3 vs 3 on a huge map, and everybody is dead in 30 sec once you meet in the middle. Anyway, I just got the demo and so far it's ok, but what I'm looking for is to play in a game where every soldiers around me is a player, not some stupid AI drone. Is this ever gonna happen ? Please convert me .... Thomas
