Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising

Not sure I like the idea of the 275M limit. That really isn't all that far... though not even sure how much I will get to play this co-op. Would very much like for this to be the first game I do co-op on - just seems like it was made for it.

Need to try pre-order again, if that damn shop thay has it for £32 will accept my blimmin cards for pre-order!
 
I can see this and FM3 turning me into a virtual hermit for the forseable future.

Bullet drop is great, nice to see an element of skill making its way into FPS sniping, wind would be even better but this is good enough for me.

LOVE the recoil.

I think wind is calculated also? Or am i off the mark here?

The tethering indeed is a concern, which was raised earlier in the thread. I guess we will just have to wait and see if it drastically hampers the gameplay. We wont know until we get some games going i guess :)
 
OXM Magazine just gave this an 8/10.

"Massive atomospheric location
satisfying long-range combat
as close as you want to get to war

Sometimes gets confused
haphazard checkpointing
8 out 10
so compelling ,you'll forgive it's quirks."

Awesome!

Surely this will just = nearly everyone on the team sitting with a sniper rifle.


My initial thought was everyone was going to be going around with thermal goggles owning everyone, which is a simliar concern to yours. Are online games limited to certain equipments having a limited number to use online?
 
how can a 7 character code unlock on xbox, I got the first one but not the second, someone post the second cos I suck at multi tasking
 
Here is a direct link to the recruit mini-games

Unlocking the missions requires you simply to load up the game and in the main menu select the "bonus codes" option. Once in there all you need to do is enter the code and voila, the mission is unlocked and will appear in the mission selection screen.


Here are details of the two Fire Team Engagement missions that you can unlock with the codes:


Encampment

Controlling a Spec Ops team, this FTE tasks players with ambushing a PLA campsite in the dead of night.

Set in a heavily forested area, players must move cautiously between tree cover, with the PLA fanning out and trying to flank at every opportunity. A fierce and atmospheric firefight, mixing long-range marksmen shooting and close quarters combat around the campsites.



Debris Field

Set amongst the vehicle wrecks from an earlier battle players must lead their fireteam through the strewn vehicle wreckage, seeking cover wherever they can, and engage superior numbers of PLA forces assaulting their position.

The player must work with their fireteam to ensure that the large numbers of PLA don’t flank them at any time, stay mobile and use fully automatic weapons, grenades and grenade launchers to suppress the enemy at every opportunity.
