I've stopped playing it. I tried the Single player story mode as I call it
Played the first bit with the Mass Graves, Laser guided the beach and found it all a bit.. well... Boring maybe?
I've messed around a fair bit in the Armoury trying different weapons and vehicles but the challenges they set you are ridiculous and unreal, I get given a rocket launcher and am set a challenge to survive. So they send two apcs and a tank when I only have the one rocket!
Then the AI senses where you are even if your lying on the floor and havn't moved, what a joke

Guys my views are:
Single Player - Pile of turd
Multi-Player - Win
Oh and for me Windows 7 got me and average of 37FPS and Vista only got me 27FPS

been playing a bit on the ocuk server today
its such a confusing game, but am getting the hang of it. I think i killed a few people but kept ctd'ing before i could see my score! I find it hard to keep up with the misson objectives because everyone seems to race off leaving me and a few others just standing there waiting for some transport lol
It is fun but the majority of my time was spent as a passenger in a helicopter today... Need more killing!

was looking at benches till late last night ....
presumably I'm not loosing a huge amount going for a 4890 over a GTX285 ? I'm just thinking a 4890 -should have about 90% of the performance for a much lower price (at a minimum 75 less) - and therefore it makes far more sense as a tie-over card till the next range end of the year ?

And you could always add another 4890 to add some more speed later on.
not with my mobo unfortunatley 
well Icould but it wouldn't improve performance much
(P5B Deluxe ... 2nd PCI-E is 4x only)

Just had my first real go at this game and, coming from an ofp vet, will say that I'm pretty happy with what I have seen so far.
I know I will be playing a lot of this game so am entering into it quite slowly. Haven't really seen combat yet but have spent some time in the editor and looked at the mp options and possibilities.
My only gripe so far is that there doesn't seem to be steam invite/join support in the friends list I was hoping to be able to host a game and invite people like I do in most steam games.
Am I right in saying that the best way to host a room and get a few mates in is just via giving them your ip and having them connect via the remote option in the browser? I am hoping this is not one of those games where hosting a room and giving it a name are pointless because no-one can see it in the list.
I'm going to spend most of my time making missions and hosting them so it is this area that will make or break the game for me ultimately.

the damage models are modified by the ace mod
As in you can get hit be unconsience and then you may wake up a bit later
heal yourself(using bandages/morphine) and continue the fight
It can be a bit confusing if you DONT read the read me file detailing this.

Really hope someone releases a OpFlash style Capture The Island MP mod for this, that would be absolutely epic!
