A Little Rough Around The Edges But all in all an Enjoyable Experience
User Rating: 8.1 | ArmA: Armed Assault PC
Regardless of the fact this is not an Operation Flashpoint Game it might as well me, as it is so similar. First impressions of this game were quite good, the training missions are fairly simple but the do get harder. Once you complete this you are shipped out to Sahrani, an Atlantic Island which is about to be ripped apart by war. The story is well interlinked with news reports before missions. The missions are fun with a good variety from transporting things in a truck to being in the heat of the battle. All of these missions take place on a huge game world which you can sometimes feel lost in. While the island is detailed the graphics engine feels dated and is inefficent resulting in possible frame rate drops for lower end machines.Even at Ultra High setting the graphics are not very impressive. This asside the draw distance is quite good. The Multiplayer is where the game shines also, with HUGE maps and many players all battling it out along a series of game modes. The only problem is the game is a little bit buggy. All in all this is an enjoyable experience for Operation Flashpoint Veterans and new players alike, and should't be snuffed at. The Good: Huge Maps, Variey of gameplay, Generally Fun
The Bad: Inefficent and Dated Graphics Engine, Minor Bugs
