Operation Flashpoint (2001): ★ M1 Tank Massacre ☆ (Alamo)

Operation Flashpoint is a military simulation developed by Bohemia Interactive and published by Codemasters in August of 2001. The game takes place during the height of cold war tensions between the East and West in the 1980's on the fictional islands of Everon, Malden, and Koglejev. Malden is occupied by NATO, Koglejev by the USSR and Everon is a neutral state. The conflict begins when an "unknown" force invades and occupies the island of Everon which prompts intervention by the other force. Of course this later brings war to a once peaceful country and the civilians form a Resistance to the occupying forces only wanting the bloodshed to end and peace be restored, and so the Everon Freedom Alliance is created (EFA). I wont spoil to much about the story, but I highly recommend this game to any one who is interested in alternate history, realism, and military, as well as those who enjoy a game not riddled with propaganda, that immerses you, and is deep and satisfying on a fundamental level. If you can look past the visuals' age and minor bugs it is a very enjoyable experience, one of the best in my opinion.

Game features:
- Play from multiple viewpoints (Soldier, Tank Crew, Pilot)
- Play from different perspectives (East, West, Resistance)
- Simulation grade realism
- Over 100+ Drivable vehicles, tanks, helicopters, planes, etc.
- Mission editor (Unlimited creative potential)
- Challenging game play (Death results in 1-2 shots)
- Immersive and atmospheric storyline
- Large modding community
- Depicts the reality of war

Red Hammer is the campaign of the East. You play as Dmitri Lukin, an Ex- Spetsnaz soldier who is forced to prove himself again from the bottom ranks of the regular army.

By the way, what soundtrack is that you've been using in the mission? I take it it's from some movie?

[SeverdSeouL]

@antred11 Sorry for the late reply, the music is from the movie 'Enemy Of The State', - Coal Yard pt. 2. Also, I'm glad you enjoyed it ^^ I thought it enhanced the tension I felt while doing this lol. And I never understood that aswell, especially when the some missions can literally take hours to complete with no checkpoints -_-

Ha! I see you used the "save game whenever you want" cheat!

[SeverdSeouL]

@Devokonstai Yup, I'm not even going to hide it xD. The game only lets you save once.. Which means if you make a mistake you have to start all over again, that could mean 20 or so minutes of hard work lost.. So its more frustrating than fun if you ask me. This is the only cheat I would recommend or use, and maybe the "endmission" if there is a bug.

[antred11]

You picked some excellent music to accompany the mission. Fits the situation very well. Also, I fully agree with you on the save game "cheat". I never saw the point in restricting the player to only 1 save game.

I never even thought about fighting all those 8 abrams in the end, even though I had captured the first one. Good job ;D
