pdenton said "it feels like Flashpoint", and that's exactly the bit I'd like to have some more info on. Battlefield 2, while it was a lot of fun, never felt like OFP.

IMO, it doesn't feel like OFP. It feels more like Delta Force.
EDIT: That review entertainer linked sounds right.

What did OFP "feel" like, exactly? I played it quite a lot when I was younger, and while I appreciated the frantic nervousness as I ran from an enemy army through the forest, not knowing where someone may pop out from, I didn't appreciate the ability of every grunt NPC to snipe me from half the map away with an assault rifle.
On the other hand, the game made for hours of enjoyment between the map editor and LAN multiplayer with a brother your own age. Incidentally, I wonder if they fixed the bug where the helicopter passenger couldn't eject if the pilot had ejected first.
Also, I hated being those impossible-to-control doves.

Yeah, but you have 65 unit limit and can only place them in 4x4 km box because "next-gen" consoles can't handle any more. :D

hmmmm watched gamespot review I don't think I like what they did. Will probably buy it but my eyes are now on AA, considering how OPF was truly a awesome package this seems rather lacking in content. I also don't like the way you hold your gun, OPF nailed that why go COD

I remember playing OFP all these long years ago, and spending hours just lying in the tall grass in one of the levels. I was pretty much out of ammo and I was just watching the enemy as I crawled around. I never experienced such an adrenaline rush with any other game. I don't remember the specific place, though. I still have the game; maybe I'll replay it sometime.

Yes. Understand that I'm not making fun of your spelling - I was made to understand that that is how it's spelled in the game?

No, it was just a typo on the translator's part.
