Flashpoint is the best and only game i play. I didn't enjoy Armed Assault though and uninstalled it.

I believe you wuill have to go higher thana 7100. I think 7900 minimum for a good gaming performance.

Holstering your weapons doesnt seem to be possible anymore apart from raising and loweing your weapon. However, with the handgun your character is unable to holster his weapon and continues to point his gun straight ahead. Are there any ways of doing this?

Last time i tired i was up to 253 - i think its unlimited. Good luck commanding them all though because a good chunk of them will be swimming in the ocean.

Ok, i'm being overly negative because i'm EXTREMELY dissapointed. I never said the game is utterly hopeless because its not. Also stating the positive doesn't solve any of the problems with the game e.g. a patch The graphics are great Character models are great Explosions are good The new "Gear" mode is a great idea In my opinion the new radio sounds are much better and easier to order troops Swimming is good (if a little slow) There is abrely any slowdown when large numbers of troops are on the screen.

The prospect of concealed weapons has been thrown out of the window.

Unfortunately the game is filled with stuff that no-one asked for and ALOT of stuff has been removed. The amount of available helicopters/cars/etc is pathetic.

Oh well, i don't really care anyway, im just making a point.

Although i will never get to play the game as a result, I think that the 505 release should be pushed back to allow some actual beta testing. As someone said, FFUR 2.0 is better than this - congrats to the everyday lads of FFUR for making a game that actually beats a bloody games developer. Some more things: Smoke shells looks crap (no smoke volume), and spread to about 5 meters squared and don't move realistically (wind etc). I cannot see how this could ever help strategically as all of your squad would have to be running right beside each other.

After playing this game for 2 days i can now safely say that in my opinion its just not fun to play in its current state (performance issues aside).

You can either drop the gun or you are forced to point the bloody thing in peoples faces (probably an undiscovered disease in Sahrani) "Why didn't they include an option to just put the pistol back in your pants (as when soldiers with rifles do), but return the player to the "unarmed" animation set? :\ Seriously, that's always what catches my eye first and makes me worried when a new game comes out - when they remove features that were available in the first game. D: " Its unfortunately the norm nowadays, devs just love to scrap the good stuff and implement some stupid idea that generally ends in "forgetting" chunks of what made the previous game great. A few examples: Driver 2/3 Oblivion Hidden and Dangerous 2 (coop) Serious Sam 2 All missing LARGE chunks of good content from the previous installments.

All of that, very true.

Nope, you could holster your pistol in operation flashpoint.

^^^ Unfortunately most games released now are HUGE dissapointments, filled with bug. Its a bloody shame that these developers are allowed to get away with it. This was the only game i was actually keeping my computer to play. I'm selling my computer.

The windshield didn't smash until the whole car blew up. Takes a good 3 shots to penetrate the glass.

Just a normal car-jack Failed to comply

without these "whiners" Operation Flashpoint would still be a buggy peice of crap.

I think its something to do with everything in the forest being given a shadow.

Well put, agree on every level. Forgot to mention that the forest areas are near unplayble and more of a pain in the arse to play.

Leaning is virtually pointless. You only lean a very small degree and is more effort than its worth.

No radio activation commands in mission editor? I'm finding it hard to figure out why they have been removed.

Nope

Maybe you need Glasses and a better headset to hear and see the screenshots and videos better that show quite an updated game... but never mind If ur getting tired of the OFP genre, then go to something you like more Sickboy, it thought you were going? Do us all a favour and piss off please.

Wasn't too sure about the bus driver, looks like someone has stolen it and the lads are out on a piss-about
