  • Hardcore is good but the last mission on hardcore is just fucking ridiculous.

  • Damn yall COD is not a real military tactical game I give them A+ for trying to make the game real u can't beat that man socom need to go back and make there game like this

  • This game is the best tactical shooter there is right now so be all u can be lol:)

  • the gameplay sucks really

  • is this gameplay on multiplayer?

  • its funny because if your new to the game and play annihilation online. it makes it easier for me to kill you

  • I discovered this game last night and... holy shit is it ever so much better than any cod, battlefield or anything like that, this is the god of the cod series. Soooo much fun with other people!!!!

  • wow i love the game havent played i im pretty crappy at being the leader in anything but ill give it a go XD

  • Do you want something really hardcore? Why don't you try to improve the AI? ofphq.com/mod/better-ai-system

  • This is so much batter than COD, here u got all these huge maps, realistic, battlefield, deffences, tanks, artillery, sea, air support, heli scape, this game is so awesome and fun, screw mw2 graphics, i prefer this 1000 times more than COD

  • The fans of the original flashpoint game play arma, since it's made by the original developers. Most codemaster FPS games don't do well, anyone remeber that game "Turning point: fall of liberty"?

  • I was about to buy it today for half price, but didnt know what the fuck it was! And im cautious ever since i bought far cry 2, which was shithouse.

  • I love bfbc2, i use to be an mw2 fan until about 2weeks after it came out, bfbc2 pwns mw2 for its genre. But for realism i think this is pretty good. can't compare this and bfbc2 though, diff genres and both good for there genres

  • Reminds me of Project Reality. Which just happens to be free..

  • The game is realistic . The sound is crisp , the controls lack familarity but nothing an intelligent person cant get there head round . Its balanced , Unlike Mw2's unfair MP , precise and overall a good game for true fans of Fps .

  • "such complex maneuvers as flanking", assault, and engage...." dude!!! you're blowing my mind!!! douchebag, the original flashpoint command system was very detailed you're not innovating anything

  • THIS GAME FAILS...

    The reason this game fails is solely down to the controls, why doesn't all these developers inherit the cod control setup.

    COD's controls are tried tested and liked.. the controls on this game using the players and vehicles are ridiculous.

    Someone change them in an update

  • omfg cod is a noob game now it got ruined by no dedi's and the weapon balance is just bullshit m4a1 is better than the m16 yer im sure about that

  • hahaha i laugh at you casual gamer

  • What you talking about.... Im not like a nerd that sits there day in day out.

    This game is rubbish, I play Arma 2 and that game owns this on my beast of a system.

    In fact they tried there very best to make this game as good..... It didn't come close!

    When you can fly Harriers, cobras, a10 tank busters and a loads of other vehicle and aircrafts as good as you can in Arma 2 and actually fully enjoy the true sim style enviroment then come back and tell me about this game...

  • Type Arma 2 Trackir 5 in the youtube, that's the exact same setup im using and you dare call me a casual gamer, send me your email address and i'll take a photo of what I've got ...

    Then lets see whos laughing...pm me..lmao

  • turn the voice off

  • what i hate is my team and my soldier spot the enemies for me all i do is run around until i hear "rifleman 100m" i wanna search for them myself. i look through the binoculars and i say rifleman 300m and im like where i cant see them.

  • in this game, you require a pretty good line of sight

  • this game is a joke. CM = money stealers

  • @ricarxop because you cant play COD MW2 style ?.... fcking retard l2p

  • they want to bring fear into first person shooters? Course theres a fear in this game! no checkpoints?? WOW

  • This game is best played on dedicated server...

  • FOV 65. That says it all. EPIC FAIL

  • BIG ASS TITTIES

  • KAUFT EUCH DAS SPIEL NICHT ICH HABE ES für 360 die grafik ist schlescht verdammt schlecht ich habe es mitt der pc wersion verglichen die texturen sehen aus wie von der ps2 auf der xbox glaubt mir kauft es nicht p.s es ist verdammt dunkel und rötlich auf der 360

  • Come to my channel for operation flashpoint 2 multiplayer gameplay!

  • Very nice GAME

  • counldnt they even have a hand compass

  • agreed

  • Well... pretty much what I've stated. While I was with the Marines, I only had the pleasure of using a Dragon sight while on an observation mission. Even then, at the time, you had to carry craploads of batteries for the cooling system. So, for them to show it used rather carefree on rifle scopes...??? Not too realistic there... since they didn't show a single nvg screen at all. It's like they have their wires crossed... nvg = more common than IR which is rather rare on personal optics

  • not sure what they are supposed to be using in FP:DR, but infrared doesn't necessarily mean thermal. there's "near infrared", which is not seen by human eye, but can be picked up even by cheap cellphone cameras (a typical TV remote is essentially an IR flashlight - try pointing it into a cellphone camera and pressing some buttons).

  • Seems they didn't ever look through NVG's. Everything is glowing bright white if it's killable...? Everything is like they're looking through FLIR which is really only mounted on special equipment or vehicles...!?!?

  • Its a thermal scope

  • its an IR scope

  • i think carson will love this

  • great stuff !

  • wat would make it more real is if when u play on hardcore can only shoot on semi. Grunts hardly ever shoot on brust coz its less accurate

  • I guess for this videos they set the AI to easy mode. The enemies just die without a fight. Of course the game will be great, just a comment.

  • you have to remember that in this game you die in 1 or 2 shots just like the AI do

  • If this game is how they've been describing it, I'll get lost in this game whilst using headphones.

  • Ahhh my first example of an annoying 13 year who will be playing OP: FP 2. He probably sits in a corner all day and masturbates while killing people in Call of Duty and says to himself "omg this game is so realistic".

  • I noticed they say you don't get a compass, but it's right there when you're giving orders. I guess they mean your compass just isn't on screen all the time. That's good tho. A marine would have a compass, he just wouldn't be looking at it all the time.

  • Dude a 13 yr old just called you a cunthole. Wtf?

  • I'm waiting for a "Join the US Army now" tagline. ;P

    It looks interesting enough to buy it. Hopefully it will surpass the typical-ness of other coop games.

  • not to jump on you, but these are actually Marines XD

    Oh and the makers are british.

  • It also eliminates the immature 13 year olds who think that anything they're not good at, completely sucks.

    Anyone who wants to play this with me online should add me on xbox live, that is, if you're mature enough to handle this game.

    otakuxlazerbeam

  • I'm 13 and I've played every single game in the series. I don't have to be "mature enough to handle this game." if I want to play. If you're trying to sound smart and intimidating, it's not working, you just sound like a pompous cunthole. Seriously, lighten up.

  • wow

  • im12whatisthis

  • I like these types of games where you have to think before you act. It adds more to the realism which is what I like the most. I like games where the bullet damage is what it's like in real life, ex: you get shot with a .50 cal in the chest and you die. Not that cod bullshit where it takes four shots with the .50 cal to kill one person and then they just hide for 10 seconds and wait until their health regens and you shoot them 4 more times.

  • No compass??? Im all for realism and hardcore and all that but i should be able to pull up the compass to now about where im going.

  • No there isnt ;) watch 0:55 video.

  • No there isnt ;)

  • There is a compass in HC mode...

  • This shits all over CoD 4, Battlefield series and so on. Coming from a 2001 OFP player.

    Flashpoint rules.

  • Why the fuck are you even comparing them? They are completely different from each other!

  • @iPidd then you are a disgrace

  • @cocojumb0 I agree. I retract the comment I made A YEAR AGO.

    Codemaster really f****** us over in terms of support, multiplayer and so much more.

    I for one will not be buying any future Codemasters titles.

  • @iPidd sorry for calling you so harshly.

    i can understand you dont like it bc sup and mp but i think the whole game is like opf for kids. you can be revived infinite times, even in hardcore as i remember, there are far less weapons and vehicle than in any ofp/arma, the narrow fov of felt 50 is making me agressive, the island is bland and has not even a forest, the editor is dumbed down² compared to the 2001 ofp. enemies dont get dropped by helos, the just spawn under them and so much more.

  • @iPidd

    This game is fucking shit compared to the orginal flashpoint game from 2001.

    It's not even the same developers. Codemasters fucked this series up.

  • @RedRiverChannel his comment was probably posted before game was released

  • I don't know if It could be as good as the battlefield 2 mod Project Reality. I want to know alot more about how the multiplayer works before I make my decision.

  • got to the website and theres a vid on multiplayer

  • omfg i just discovered this game, i love realistic shooters and this looks even better than the new mw2

  • even on hardcore this isn't as realisic as they make it seem, ArmA II is something realistic and fun. I can respect what they did though, they made a game with a gamestyle that was popular and fun to play and atleast tried to implement realism.

  • If you make such a statement, you have say why. Why is hardcore mode not as realistic as they make it seem?

  • I disagree, the AI on Arma II sucks so instead of having smart opponents they just use Aimbot so that you get on the first shoot by an ak47 on 600 meters distance

  • im playing like this second playthrough, itll be rad

  • Totally Stoked for this game. Isnt what i expected from OPF ( i played the first OPF) But i think im going 2 enjoi this game a much as a fat kid in a bakery shop :D * come on laugh! its funny*

  • Yeah one thing they missed is the realistic shooting, it's very nubbed. You dont have to reaquire targets after you fire a round... it auto centres the weapon. It's gay but you know, you cant make the game as realistic as possible because it wont sell enough... gotta dumb it down JUST a little for COD players hahaha

  • I am a CoD player, however, I completely agree! :-D

  • How are you ever going to simulate "realistic shooting" with a mouse or gamepad. Get a grip.

  • OFDR is not a simulation nor does that mean the aiming/shooting can not be more realistic. It isn't hard to take out auto-centering. n00b.

  • On a real rifle the "centering" happens intuitively. On a mouse or gamepad it requires awkward inputs which is not realistic. Dumb455 wannabe l33tboi.

  • A "REAL" Rifle? There is a difference between Real and Realistic dropkick. If re-aquisition is so difficult for you on a mouse or analog stick then go sit with the other kids with downsyndrome spaz.

  • It's not difficult, just not my idea of realism. In real life you simply hold the rifle in place, on a mouse or pad you usually have to keep pushing it downwards.

    What the hell is a dropkick anyway, some kind of wrestling entertainment move?

    And kid, I've played FPSes with a mouse since Quake demo in the mid-90's.

  • I've been around just as long but that dont mean shit. Dropkick is a football term. Your idea of realism is flawed, stop watching youtube vids on other people firing weapons and actually go out, join a club and do it for real, promise you that it IS realistic to have weapon sway... the weapon moves just from breathing and your arms getting tired holding it up... trust me.

  • When did I say there shouldn't be weapon sway again?

    FYI, I qualified as "good" on assault rifle.

  • Weapon sway is what we're arguing about dropkick and FYI, 4RAR cdo. "The Fighting Fourth" ADF 2001-2005... I qualified too.

    Stop trying to 1 up me, you'll loose every time.

  • I was talking about whether you need to compensate for recoil manually and whether it makes any sense to even talk about realistic shooting when you use a mouse or gamepad for control.

    I don't think I "lost" neither of those arguments.

  • I also never said a word about sway. I'll agree that there is too little sway visually. But it is just a visual effect. The bullets don't come out of the barrel you see in 1st person view, so the gun could sway a bit to the right yet your shots would go a lot to the left, similar to COD4 or whatever.

  • Again, and finally, auto-centering due to a lack of "weapon sway" doesnt make the game as "hardcore" as it could be, or as realistic. The HUD is designed to take care of little things so you dont have to, so auto-centering is just doing the same, it's correcting your aim for you instead of you doing it yourself WHICH, as you said... is NOT difficult to do with a mouse or analog stick... so why take it out? Your argument is futile... kneel.

  • At least I'm not the retard thinking that a mouse or analog stick can be used for "realistic shooting". Also, I'm not into buttsex or sucking off men you disgusting homo.

  • They can be, by the game simulating the effects of firing a weapon and you countering them with control. Kneel...

  • where is recoil?

  • i like cod and Bf:BC but this game will be amazing. I am much more into tactics and actually using your brain to win a game. I hate those 13 year old fan boys who will make this game look bad because it is "too hard". The point of it IS to be hard. Is the real army meant to be easy??? Dumb fuks!

  • Not very articulate but your spot on. This game is for people who are best friends with adversity and love to be pushed... HARD!

  • you are really cool

  • yeah.... some games use tactics.... but they point them out 2 u and force u 2 use them... in this game.... it is up 2 you 2 pick what your going 2 do and where your going 2 do it... and if u plan ur shit... ur pass

  • This game is for true survivalists and military buffs. You'll meet currently serving and ex-pats in this game from many nations, weapon tech heads and military/strategy enthusiasts. The game should ONLY be played on Hardcore!

    Call Of Duty or BFBC2 can not compete in terms of realism...

    If Realistic Combat, Strategy and a more in-depth look at weaponary is what you're after, this is the game for you!

  • oh come on. iron sights dont even go up when u shoot. You can put entry clip in one dot.

  • Go watch some videos on M4 being shot on auto.

    In real-life, the sights don't "go up" because the barrel and stock form a straight line and the 5.56x45 doesn't generate much recoil on a short-barreled weapon.

  • yeah its clearly remains on the same point with ability to shot directly in the same spot.

  • this is what the soldier sim is all about. is cod4 a soldier sim? no, its an action epic romp of epic proportions. in CoD(insert number here) you play as part of another cog in the machine. this, you will be part of a squad, where your actions have consequences.

  • i think this game will quite good it has a mission editor for pc i dont think u will need a powerful pc 2 run it has a different engine 2 bf2 and arma 2 it has unscripted ai and each time it will play differently harcore mode looks awesome one hit one kill some of the time the medipack doesnt heal u it stops bleeding nothing heals u completely and run and gun style is not going to work in this game and this game is not a corridor shooter (thank god)

  • can't wait for this.

    as much as i love CoD, the tactics and everything in this game looks amazing. i wonder though, it looks a bit choppy, could this be youtube(30fps) or the game itself?

  • (cont. from below) Im not trying to be an ass, just trying to differ this. In cod 4 your missions were linear and scripted. In this you have a whole island, in essence meaning your in a sandbox mode as to how to do your objectives, in cod 4 you go around and every mission no matter how you do it, is the same, this you can do it 50 different approaches and on the 51st time still change, so i hope you get what im saying, as for this hardcore mode, all it does is removes you fps comforts.

  • i wish people had some sense to differ a Tactical FPS military simulator from a scripted call of duty game. No its not like cod 4, it has the same setting, in the modern world, Hey heres news for you, every game that has a modern setting **DOESNT** have to do with COD 4. Cod 4 has a hardcore mode, yes. It has nothing to do with this hardcore mode the OFP is putting out. Hardcore if you want to call it that in cod, makes every gun accuracy international, and 1 hit kill. This mode removes you hud

  • crap

  • arma 2 rocks...opf 2 is like COD 4...

  • Clearly, you either have not played COD4 or didn't watch the video.

  • you dont know what you're talking about

  • Looks pretty weak :/ if theyr only removing the hud then its going to be lame, and when the guy entered the house the ai didnt seem to do anything :/ the one in the corner and the one on his left he didnt even see the player :/ thats pretty bad for a sim but otherwise it looks awesome

  • that's because he was blinded by the soldiers flashlight

    i think... xD

  • anybody any ideas when the demo will be out ?

  • "Putting the fear back into first person shooters."

    Clearly hasn't spent much time playing certain shooters.

    To be honest, the only way to develop tension outside of having a good plot, presentation, execution of pacing etc. is just making the game difficult.

  • And Flashpoint will be difficult. Thats why it will be good.

  • rain how am i wrong?

  • I had posted about iron sights - but I must have seen an earlier vid or something before - had a good look at this one and they're ok...

  • Comment removed

  • ArmA II 's body physics are much better than these here in OFP 2

  • you're kidding, right? Don't get me wrong, I'm a huge fan of ArmA II, and i have played the original flashpoint since it came out in 2001, but dude, the physics suck!

  • they're updating it ALOT... its running on a way updated crysis engine. for instance, a sniper has to take account of everything except coriolis and humidity because of how real the physics are going to be

  • wrong

  • and even then you cant judge it based off its pre-pre-pre-beta

  • What the heck are you talking about Falling7Rain? Neither OFPDR or Arma2 use the CryEngine. Arma2 is Real Virtuality 3, OFPDR is EGO/Neon.

  • ego isnt a physics engine...

  • CryEngine (or "crysis engine" as you call it) isn't one either, it's a complete game engine. Even if it were just a modular physics engine that could be licensed, neither OFPDR or Arma2 would use it. Stop wasting people's time with your nonsense.

  • just like cod 4 with the hardcore but still looks really good though

  • not like cod 4 at all buddy dont buy this game if you think its going to be like cod 4...

  • Comment removed

  • sorry i dont wanna do pretty!! i want a game that is as good as COD UO, basic graphics but a fantastic community ie teamspeak game.

    i dont want a fast paced game i want a fun game.. so sort it out

  • ArmA 2 mate one of the best tactical gaming community out there

  • amen

  • maybe but im hoping when this comes out itll have an even better one

  • This sucks even on hard core mode the guns still handle like in counter strike,

    Screw opf2 And ARMA 2, they got nothing on PR.

  • let me clarify: Co-op [online]

    -Co-op multiplayer is going against AI, with customizable mission, fire teams, equipment.

    - 4/4 players fighting together, but each player is a squad leader in charge a fire team

    [4 human players each controlling 3 AI] the platoon/team consists 16 soldiers.

    (Team Deathmatch [online] pvp)

    -firstly, exact player count is unconfirmed

    -but judging by the team count in coop (16), it might turn out 16v16, 32 human players total. with AI as support, like airstrikes

  • All true, for console. We still don't know for sure; even us on the forums don't have anything really, other then speculation. PC is supposedly the same with 8v8 with AI squads (so 64v64).

  • may be 8 vs 8 and al soldiers

  • 32vs32 actually... (read that on codemasters forums, if im wrong plz dunt flame me lol)

  • Ur wrong. It was 4 vs 4 or something or 8 vs 8 with ally bots

  • its come out on 6/8 october

  • when will this movie come out?

  • Hehe they are using scripts in their missions, meaning everytime you do the mission it will be exactly the same. That is a fact, i`ve read it on the cdaction magazine site, they played the preview version. Realy you cant compare this crap to Arma 2

  • Yes you can't because this "crap" isn't buggy as hell and needs a monster rig to even run it. Lets not forget the constant patches.

  • Hehe Arma2 uses scripts as well, dumbass. A hell of a lot of scripts actually. That doesn't make the combat predictable.

  • but dragon rising uses scripts to push the action forward just like in call of duty, thats a big difference

  • Arma2 story parts of the campaign have a bunch of scripted events as well, and they are the driving force for the action.

    In any case, I liked OFP1 style simple infantry missions way more than the boring pseudo-roleplaying crap or RTS elements (i need to buy stuff, wtf?) that Arma2 campaign is trying to do.

    If OFPDR will have OFP1 style canned missions, only not so unrealistic, I will be happy. It's not like a fireteam leader will make the battle plans in real life either.

  • call of duty SUCKS!

  • actully no it doesnt the game is unscripted and will be different everytime u play it cod 4 does but this game doesnt i can tell u that now it is different everytime b/c of the ai not having scripted movements they can go where they like

  • They guy who recorded the video actually had to do it several times over because the AI would sometimes go patrolling or left the building to secure the perimeter. I like how you judge a WIP before the final game is release.

  • IS THERE ONLINE

  • no. no online mode. -_- of course there is.

  • oh please god dont tell me its true ..only 4 player coop ?

  • Jesus! I can't believe morons are having a system war on Youtube comments section! Does this retarded shit never end!

  • whit harcore and all this tactikal shit and stuff you will gett presure on you in big battles all you nedd to do it will be morre plan making, and tactical formations than you fier bullets at the enemy

  • hahaha I played Arma with guys freom COD4. They kept hearing cracking noises before getting shot finally and couldn't figure out what the hell they meant. I bet you're one of those dudes.

  • That was a really horrible joke....

  • well, actually: unlike you, other people really know what the fuck they are talking about. and actually make enough money to buy both. and we are not in an economic crisis. so shut the fuck up and go home u stupid kid. btw greaT vid and keep posting :)

  • I guess your one of those idiots that use other people's reviews of games as your own opinion without forming your own.

  • man I must be living in the medieval times.. they now have sniper scopes in real life that leave everything dark but they light up targets in bright white? what technology is that? is it some version of heat vision?

  • Its called FLIR dude

  • Yes, it's a thermal sight.

  • Comment removed

  • Comment removed

  • god damn i am excited

  • The weapon sounds are recorded from real guns, except for some Chinese stuff they could not get a hold of.

  • QUIERO EL OFP 2 SAKDJ39284UJ2398

  • If you are comparing this game to Call of duty, you are offending both titles completely. This game is *supposed* to be a full blown simulation like arma, if it is comparable to call of duty something has gone very wrong!

  • 2 words

    wow

  • Please add mouse and keyboard support for the PS3 version.

  • close combat YES FINALLY!!!

  • Modern Warfare 2 = Modern Wafare 1.5

  • you call "Lulz" english? hmm.. let me decipher... Laughing UTZ LOUDZ ZZZ

  • I'm sorry sir, I cannots talks to smart humans

  • anyway is there a auto for the m16a4?

  • The M16A4 fires only single and burst.

  • There are two kinds people who will like this game ex/ current military and people who like to play military simulations. The people who will hate this game are hardcore fans of call of duty and arcade gamers. (I.e. run and gun or spray and pray untrained want to be)

  • Thats a stereotype, although it may be true in certain cases, it certainly is not for me.

    I enjoy CoD because of the action and fast-pace of the game however OFP2 is meant to be played in a tactical way, something which takes patience.

    There may be ex/current military people who hate this game and hardcore fans of CoD and arcade games who enjoy this game
