Any actually played this game? It's my favorite... all though it ain't got much to do with Brother Bear....... It's a Military Simulator, that was released back in year 2000.... The sequel "Armed Assault" was released just 3 days ago
I've played this numerous amounts of hours the past 6 years, and fortunately I never grew tired of it It's got a very powerful Mission Editor, and the engine itself can be reprogrammed to almost anything your heart desires...
You are able to control basically every vehicle, plane, boat you stumble across, and the game itself takes place on 4 different islands with a combined size of more than 400 square kilometres... So the battlefields are huge... If your to fast paced Rambo style games, than Operation flashpoint is definitely NOT something for you. I've spent hours sneaking around, observing targets, doing re-con and so on. The main goal is not to kill as many as possible, the goal is to survive, and often the easiest way to survive, is to steer around hostile positions....
You can't take more than 1-2 shots, before your dead, and the AI (Artificial Intelligence) aren't stupid either. In case you get into a firefight, always check your flank, the AI do tend to flank you, quite often, while a larger squad of soldiers keep you suppressed...
Today there have been made more addons and mods for Operation flashpoint, than any other game. Totaling more than 10.000.... This is due to the fact that the engine is extremely customizable
Anyways, just thought I'd share it, since it is my favorite game I've not had a chance of trying the sequel yet... well at least not anything else than a crappy multi-player demo, but I plan to buying it within the next few weeks
EDIT: Should have mentioned that this is a PC-Game only.... Although Bohemia did release a reworked version for the Xbox a few years back, called Operation Flashpoint: Elite..... Operation Flashpoint: Elite is simply just Operation Flashpoint with updated graphics
