To me that sounds very promising, well except for the akward controls.

I was going to say, more awkward than ARMAs? But looking at how it's done, through your movement keys :eek: maybe it will be more awkward. No more sending your team mates into die while your in the process of running in the other direction.

I'm going to pre-order this now though, ARMA2 is just to much of an investment of my time.

Is that through pre-order? I pre-ordered it on cdwow and I'm wondering when they ship and when I'll have it?

Krieg

The cut down multiplayer is off putting but I think it will make a good single player. Ill wait a couple days before purchase, one review is not enough for me.

Pre-ordered through Gamesnash. I will almost definately have it for Friday morning, and there's a fair chance I'll get it on Thursday. They receive the stock on Wednesday (tomorrow) and ship pre-orders immediately. I've also gone with the Express post option, so that should increase chances! So fingers crossed.

Ordered mine form thehut €32 delivered, was sent out today. I think the price has gone up since. thehut and adsa ship early and I tend to get preorders on Thursdays with them. Just waiting for my 360 to get back from Germany.:(

Maximilian

7/10 from Eurogamer.

Think it's probably better than the score from what I've read and I'll probably pick this up from Steam in a day or two. Their reviews are often wide of the mark.

The above won't be happening then!!! Just received this email from Gamesnash......

Thank you for placing your order for Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising with us. We have unfortunately been informed by Codemasters Irish distributors that their own delivery has been delayed and will not arrive to them until this coming Friday. Normally we would have expected to have dispatched your order this afternoon but because of this delay we are not going to be able to dispatch until Friday. We have arranged for deliveries to be dispatched directly from the distributors to our customers on Friday. For Dublin customers orders are being shipped directly by courier where neccessary to arrive on release day but with your shipping address being outside of Dublin this will mean that your order will not arrive until this coming Monday. We understand that the decision to place a pre order with ourselves is heavily influenced by our ability to deliver on or before release day so we understand that you may wish to cancel this order. If you wish to cancel the order please let us know by replying to this email.

We apologise for the inconvenience caused due to circumstances beyond our control.

Regards,

Gamesnash

Just sent an email asking to cancel it there.

If I order from The Hut right now, do any of you think I would receive this on Friday, or am I cutting it too close?

heebusjeebus

Just ordered it from Zavvi for 30 euro all in (PC version).
This will keep me going until MW2 arrives in November.

ScumLord

I paid just under €29 on cdwow, I even included the pointless insurance.

heebusjeebus

Whats the expected delivery on that?

Mr Freeze

I ordered a game off them once, and that showed me, it took over a month to deliver it. Never again.
