" Operation Flashpoint 2 will see the most realistic modelling of conflict scenarios in a new contemporary theatre of war.

Codemasters has confirmed that Operation Flashpoint 2 is currently scheduled for a winter release, for PC, Xbox 360 and PS3 (thanks: videogaming247. The game will use a new FPS variant of Neon technology, the studio's proprietary middleware, and will include a multiplayer component which creates battles on an incredible scale. "

I wonder how well it will retain its realistic approach i hear the 1st one didn't translate to well to the xbox.

Only reason i say this is because i worried that it will get watered down for the consoles.
 
yeah, Arma ran so bad it was insulting! most pointless game in years IMO, hyped version of operation flashpoint that just didn't run :mad:

The latest patch fixes most of the performance issues. But I do agree, it did run really bad and took ages to fix. :)
 
Your right about arma , performance has indeed varied a lot from version to version.
But the 1.08 version does run pretty good on my rig at least.

Cant wait to see what ofp2 is like tho

The xbox one had everything the pc one had, and wasn't watered down in anyway. That was more of the problem. Ontop of that it was released years later than the pc one, and everyone had lost intrest.

All I'm saying is, I doubt that'll have an effect - the bigger concern is letting someone completely new at the franchise.
 
It will suck tbh, the original was one of a kind at the time flying planes etc. Battlefield is far more fun and has knocked it off it's stool.

OPF2 = Fail
Codemasters = Fail
 
Battlefield is completely different to OFP. It hasnt knocked it anywhere becuase the similarties between the two end at the fact you can blow stuff up and have wars.
 
Looking forward to this, was initially disappointed with ArmA but with the latest patches and some of the missions available online I really do think it's a good game. Still think the graphics are really good on the high end rigs (which mine is not :( )

To compare battlefield to OFP is hideously hideously wrong.

Aslong as there's some decent helicopter missions and a good mission creator with some large maps I'll be happy. :)
 
Looks good, though some of the faces could use a little more work. Might have to break out the original again. Last time I played it was on a system where it ony worked on minimum settings.

PK!
 
Wow looks very good! I haven't been playing many games recently. I don't know about you guys but they seem to have lost their edge lately. I really enjoyed OFP1 and the mods for it. But this one will be on the top of my christmas list :D

"Oh no, 2 is down"

Hopefully will be a better product than armas intial release and have some security installed for the MP aspect.

While I'm here:D If any of you want to jump in on our server this Monday night coming just pop onto my link below join us on TS so you can get the password for our server as we tend to lock it once we have our regs etc on as to many numpties have spiolt a good game.
 
I understand what you mean but of course you can compare the two, ofp just has more of a blank canvas and is less fun for the general gamer, maybe this is because i just played it casually on lan. OFP for clans, BF for public?

Plain and simple it's going to fail.
