arcade and one shot one kill dont go together

They do all the time. What happens in most FPS's when you get a head shot? But it's the look and feel of it that makes it seem too arcade like. I'm really thinking that they have either made a shooter like COD and lowered the players health, or as Captain Chaos said, done something like the Rainbow Six games, where they gutted the original game and made a more accessible game.

Correction, you took his messsage out of context, that reply was in relation to Damnation which Codemasters published and Blue Omega developed URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Damnation_%28video_game%29"]link[/URL

Have been playing ARMA2 recently (the other one!) and that was a nightmare of bugs & difficult beyond belief but also had moment of sheer brilliance and jaw dropping aweness.....
As Flashpoint was developed from the same original game but with better software company backing and based on the vids so far (much more refined than ARMA 2 which still had the clunky feel of the original) and also as it was designed as a cross platform game it should deliver more on the awe inspiring moments and less of the keyboard-bashing frustration of ARMA2...

Its a definate 100% buy for me...

Im really looking forward to this. Any word on online player limit?

I seem to remember 16 v 16 on Pc and 4 v 4 on console was mentioned that may be wrong though

I read that that 4v4 had 3 AI players for each player.

Reckon Battlefield:bad company 2 will wipe the floor with this. Don't see flashpoint bringing anything new to the table.

Havin a laugh yeah, two completely different games.

Flashpoint is trying to cater for what is left of the tactical shooter market.

BC2 is an EA cash in on last years CoD 4 light with vehicles.

Its like comparing Need for Speed to Forza.

Nedved85 · 17-09-2009 3:24pm

No demo prior to release...

haha

You don't know anything about OPF so! Im not saying BF wont be a good game I reckon it will and ill buy it on release day.

BF & CoD are in the same boat(kinda) there both arcadey with differences like vehicles maps and weapons!

OPF is tatical simulation with one huge map.. The only other game I can think of to compare is the RSV series!

ironictoaster · 17-09-2009 6:31pm

Is worth getting the old OF game? Seems like fun.

ironictoaster · 17-09-2009 6:46pm

I was just watching that video posted above, he was saying you will need a vehicle to travel around the island due to the sheer size of the island. I hope it isn't Far Cry 2 all over again.

ilikerashers · 17-09-2009 6:47pm

Maybe i'm being a bit hasty but I did own the PC version before and remember it being quite slow and dare I say it, boring. Bad company is a bit more arcadey (not quite MW, anyone else have trouble surviving for more that a half second?) but by God it's fun!

I'll get it if its got decent co-op, xbox needs some decent multiplayer games where you're not getting knee caps removed by an 11 year old followed by some intense crouching on your corpses face.

dazftw · 18-09-2009 12:22am

Far Cry was alot of twisting and turned around the map, thats what I didn't like. This does look really open & hilly(could be good or bad) im just really waiting to actually play it to decide if its good, im pretty much on the fence with both legs on OPF side haha!

Mulitplayer video looks nice!!

I had another video which codemasters put on youtube public by mistake but they have made it private now, should be up in the morning!

I really don't mind that there's going to be no demo. I think the Operation Flashpoint experience will only work when delivered as a whole. A 1gb demo would only handicap the gameplay given that we wouldn't be playing in an open-world and many features would have to be left out. Some people are seriously overreacting on the CodeMasters forums!

AdMMM · 23-09-2009 4:15am

And the first interview has been published (and translated). 9/10

CodeMasters forums

This will be a launch day buy for me anyway!

dazftw · 23-09-2009 6:15pm

Friday 2 weeks

Captain Chaos · 23-09-2009 7:01pm

Wind effect and bullet drop considerations for long range shots - thaaannnk yooouuu. Thats a selling point for me right there, didn't think they would actually go through with it for the console game.

weiland79 · 25-09-2009 9:03pm

God i hope your all wrong about it being hyped up as this is a release day buy for me. I'm so tired of linear scripted shooters I've put all my faith in this title and it better be good.
