I saw a commercial for it on TV, and it looks pretty sweet.

I enjoyed it playing it over the weekend, reminded me a lot of Half-Life 1/2 with it's story pacing and cut scenes.  Sure, it's a hokey story line but so was Red Dawn and that was still a fun movie.

the thought of korea invading the u.s is lol'able i agree. but atleast its not another "russia is the enemy!" game. so i'll give it a try.
When was Russia the "friend"?

Operation flashpoint:dragon rising russia was our ally.


the plot was this: russia discovers on an island a very rich amount of oil.but they dont have the proper drilling equipment. so they contract the u.s to drill it for them. the only problem is this island has been in a debate between russia&china (they both think they own the island). so china invades the island. and the u.s+russia fight them off to secure the large oil reserves under the island.

im just getting a little tired of killing so many russians in videogames. its getting boring. atleast koreans are a change of scenary in a way.

I want my 50 bucks back...

(btw: OFP:DR was good - can't wait for the new one)

Here is my impression of the game so far (copies from another forum I use) :
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

yeah....I'm thinking it was wasted money. It's like paper mario on this game....just put together a lot better.
I noticed it when the bus flipped over and you could see the seats when the team rescued you.

The AI on your team seem lost as well. They slide in a circle, legs don't move at all while they turn - then they bolt off on their pre-coded route.
Voice so far is over-dramatized. Beginning of the second level I'm reminded of MoH:Airborne. Anything silver GLOWS....oooo shiny! -_-

All this hype over what? A shiny paper mario built into 3D with lots of junk in the way, simple coding, and poor acting?

------
This is just single player so far. I'm not touching MP until SP has been conquered....as it should be with any good gamer. Nothing worse than being on MP and hearing some sweetheart nugget ask what blah blah is.....I always tell them to play the game and find out.

-----
Who knows? Maybe I'm just cranky.

----
Here's a snip I sent to Happy: (I'm pyro)

Pyro๑۩۞۩┌∩┐(◣_◢)┌∩┐: I want my 50 bucks back
=WFC=HappySpawn: really?
Pyro๑۩۞۩┌∩┐(◣_◢)┌∩┐: I didn't have that money to spend - I borrowed some so I could play with everyone because it was soooooo good.....
Pyro๑۩۞۩┌∩┐(◣_◢)┌∩┐: Imagine black ops...but with worse graphics but using up MORE of your CPU
Pyro๑۩۞۩┌∩┐(◣_◢)┌∩┐: dude kicks a door - dust magically appears in the air and falls down there. Doesn't follow the door, door magically becomes 2D on the floor instantly (pretty much)....and the AI on your team...they're stupid. Beyond CoD2's run and insta-die stupid...

Like, ya know, when that thing that makes you move, it has pistons and things, When your thingamajigy is providing power, you do not hear other peoples thingamajig when they are providing power.

its a good game...depending. It's different from Black ops. MP isnt the best thing in the world...it feels like Bad Co. 2...but with knives faster then CoD... its an odd mix...and the damage receptors....wow. seems like it takes an eternity to kill the enemy in MP, and half a clip of hits...but just the opposite for them. Connection too...I have yet to see a good connection across the whole lobby. every single game I played I was red barring, along with half the lobby...the other half except for one or two people was yellow bars. hasnt won me over yet fully.

the reason torso shots take so long to kill is because they FINALLY (Thank GOD Someone did it) applied the effect of a flak jacket.

Patch coming out soon that supposedly fixes a lot of multiplayer issues.
