You dont work for codemasters by any chance?
:P

I think my biggest gripe with the looks is how jaggy it is. The fillrate method for edge-smoothing is really heavy on processing and there's no standard AA option (although I heard that they'll be adding it in with a later patch.)
It's not a ruined game but I thought it wise to let people know that they're better off waiting a while if they don't want to go through the hassles of bugs and bad performance

After the onslaught of FPS games this past year, I'm spent.
I can't pick up a controller and be excited to play one of these for a while.

But it's a fair point, so I've removed it.

That said, I am looking forward to the sequel.

That said, maybe I should actually wait to play the demo before making so many assumptions about how the game will turn out.

"Fred West"!? It's Frank West, and he turned out to be a badass in the end.

Makes no difference to me though since while I respected it as a sim, I couldn't figure out where the fun was in it. I'd run around a bit, sometimes get into a firefight and if I was behind cover, I'd miraculously survive scrolling through the hugeass cluttered popup menu to reload my gun. Most of the time though, I'd run up to a truck or something, pull up a massive popup menu, start scrolling towards "Enter truck" and get one-shotted by some guy a mile and a half away.
"Realistic, but war is hell."

Plus Codemasters are hanging themselfs with so many target render images and videos. Its allready bitting them in the ass with the release of the first in-game images with sub par quality.
They can't deliver on what they promised, not at the required scale for a sim bearing the OFP trademark.
This will be their undoing.
I'm eagerly waiting for the release of ARMA II
Have a good one.

Originally I read BIS as Black Isle Studios. Seems that Operation Flashpoint fans are going to feel like a good number of Fallout fans...

Both OFP2 and ArmA 2 will likely have my money at some point, but OFP2 reducing co-op to only 4 players on the PC is a bit of a joke.

Its called Operation Flashpoint 1 And ArmA: Armed Assault
You can have a 64 man CO-OP, yes you heard right, a 64 man co-op. The map for ArmA and ArmA 2 is around 30 miles plus long, I dont remember exactly. Its meant to be a war simulator of epic scales. My clan has roughly 30 people and the missions we make will involve entire squads of helicopters, tanks, and infantry all in one mission working in unison.

4 players should still be plenty of room for the everyday man though.
