Some reservations
I enjoyed the original Operation Flashpoint and expected an even more satisfying experience with the sequel. But some annoying aspects of the game led me for the first time ever to quit a game before completion and uninstall it.
The lack of the ability to save more than one game has been cited as a drawback by other gamers. That's an irritant, but what finally pushed me over the edge was when the game arbitrarily ended my mission because I had supposedly strayed too far from the defined battlefield. The inadequate radio warning I received of this was simultaneous with the ending. In this case, the game fails you for the mission and erases your save, requiring you to start from scratch. I had already invested considerable time in the mission ("The Alamo"), an especially frustrating one, and was not willing to start over. There are simply too many other good games out there competing for my limited free time.
I'm philosophically opposed to game designers trying to exert too much control over how purchasers use their gaming time. It's fine to make a game challenging, but not artificially difficult simply by making the interface cumbersome or the save mechanism capricious. I have played through a number of notoriously difficult games without losing patience, and this review is not written in the heat of frustration. Looking back, I wish I had stopped with the original Operation Flashpoint.
Play as the Russians
This is a great add-on to Flashpoint. While Flashpoint is reall just another FPS, this does excel in many areas. gameplay is great, mission design is very solid, the AI does change from mission to mission, the more you know about real military tactics, the better you can do in this game, etc. And it patches OFP, which is always a good thing.
One note, though, this doesn't start out easy like OFP. You are expected to be a veteran OFP player.
