You CAN NOT compare operaton flashpoint to COD4. Not even in the same category.

Operation flashpoint is pretty much a “war simulator.” You need to play smart, like a real soldier would or you die. It has a semi steep learning curve. Very rewarding game when you get the hang of it, understand it and can play with enough smarts to excute your own tactics and see them unfold in real time. Ranks up there as one of best games ever IMO. I hope it better than ARMA, ARMA was pretty disappointing.

The first one’s years old. They’ve been planning a sequel for an awfully long time. Not sure without checking but it’s been in the works for a good while.

I’ve not heard of this game, how does it compare to COD4 in terms of gameplay?

OK the interweb answered that for me, it’s dated a bit

My pleasure

It used to be a big game in the Dennis offices on CVG, back in the day.

I still haven’t managed to get that same flashpoint atmos from a shooter. Cheers for the info
