What a GAME!
I've had Operation Flashpoint Cold War Crisis since late 2001 and have also since got the expansion packs AND downloaded huge amounts of addons and mods for the game. I still play it. For those who say this game is "old-skool" and it has old-fashioned graphics, obviously care more about graphics and effects than what makes a game a game. Gameplay! Enjoyable, realistic, leaves-you-begging-for-more gameplay! Besides since the latest expansion came out graphics were improved. A professional quality modification called FDF (Finnish Defence Forces) updated the original games sounds and graphics! Many people have said Far Cry is open-ended and lets you do anything you want. Well i must say that its just another shooter. Its so-called "open-endedness" is just a couple more paths through the jungle. You still end up the same place. And you always play the same character. Same goals, "Be the one-man army! Kill the monsters and bad guys and save the world!" PLEASE! Well, you know what i'm getting at. In the user made missions i've downloaded. I've been a civillian fleeing an invasion, a police officer, an FA-18 Hornet pilot, an officer of the Red Army, a Czech soldier... i mean i could go on all night. Theres so many different things. With all this you can overlook any faults this game has. And i'll still be playing this "old-skool" game until Operation Flashpoint 2 comes out because i'm not fooled by fake "open-endedness" and fancy graphics. I'm in it for the gameplay! Medal of Honor and Far Cry and countless others are a blast. But when you've finished them. What? Thats why i play Flashpoint. Its different from those. THAT is what i say.
