Any1 lukin forward to Operation Flashpoint Dragon Rising??

I enjoyed the original, though having it as my first tactical shooter experience probably wasn't too bright seeing as I couldn't figure out how the hell I was supposed to play the game.

I've heard other fans of the first don't like the chances of this one. I'm not very interested in it myself.

I am very excited to play OPF2

I'm looking forward to the gore and the improved command system.

Just wonderin caus like the first one was a technical marvel but i dont think it got the credit it deserves.... i'm gonna be gettin it on pc and ps3 but i hope map editor is on it caus thats made ,in my opinion, the first 1 awesome!!Darrenmol

this game will be leet. Ive heard a rumour of it including a mission maker.

I'm not, too realistic for me, I would get so frustrated if I had to replay the same stage 27 times...

In the article PC Gamer did in the most recent issue, they specifically stated that the sequel (being created by a totally different group of guys) will be much more accessible than the original game. I personally preferred the original's insane difficulty because it didn't turn us into girls like so many other modern games do today, but I think the sequel will still be challenging. (Or so I hope..)

I wasn't sure what to make of the game either, but the preview sounds very promising. The thing is, yeah they're different developers from the original OpFor, but those guys released Arma and that went REALLY well, didnt it? I'm not really that excited for Arma 2 if they had to release the first one once they ran out of money, or whatever happened.

There's nothing wrong with a bit of accessibility for these types of games. From what I have read in regards to Dragon Rising, it's still a very believable and detailed sim. They're not taking anything away from the genre, just streamlining it for a smoother experience.

Who knows how it'll turn out, but I'm really looking forward to it after reading some of the latest stuff.

I am interested in this game.

The first Flashpoint was good. Arma (after being patched) was also pretty good. Since the second Flashpoint is not going to have the same "freedom" of the first, I will probably not be as excited to get this game. Also, since this Flashpoint is going the "dual release" mode (PC and Console), I don't think it will be anywhere as detailed (eye candy does not count). At this point, I am holding out for Arma 2 but not by much as it too is going the dual release mode of both platforms. Guess we will just have to wait and see.

I guess im kind of looking forwardto it, the first was okay, i liked how the missions could play out in different ways, like you could get left behind when a extraction chopper comes or something of the sort.

I've seen a lot of people saying how it's "dumbed down". I don't really believe that, I enjoyed the first, but found it too hard simply because the UI was awful to navigate... I really hope the second is just as hard, but they improve the interface so it is more accessible and more playable... I don't think that is dumbing it down, it just makes the game more streamlined and in a sense, more realistic, real soldiers can blurt out orders real fast, so why shouldn't gamers be able to?

anyway, after playing quite a bit of ArmA and more recently, project reality, I cannot wait for this game.. it's running onthe EGO engine so I have high hopes for it's techincal performance, unlike ArmA2... ArmA ran like a hog and was bugged to hell and back :(

Looking forward to it, I really like Tactical Shooters.
