  Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising - FAIL About our website    


Well since Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising was the biggest FAILURE from Codemasters, I suggest switching to ArmA2 - htt://arma2.com

Since there won't be any news posted from me relating to OFP:DR, I suggest visiting http://www.armedassault.info/ and continue to follow ArmA2 and it's huge community.

However if a true Codemasters fan still believes that OFP:DR will live and would like to join ofp2.info team to continue posting news, then please contact Cervo.

  The game's difficulty is being controversed Community    
As we can read in the various forum topics, a lot of people are quite angry about the game's difficulty which is considered by a lot of players as being far too easy! Enzian has even created this funny and a bit sarcastic OFP2 box artwork!

Of course, most of community members are OFP 1 veterans so their expectations are set very high, but hopefully we see that some mods are already out to drastically increase AI's performance, so if even Codemasters doesn't update the game, the community will do !

So what do you think about it? You can leave your comments if you wanna share your thoughts.

  Operation Flashpoint Video Capture Contest General    
Operation Flashpoint Proves War is Hell, but Winning a CyberPower Gaming Rig is Worth It

BALDWIN PARK, CA (October, 2009) -- The battle lines have been drawn on remote Skira Island. To the victors go the spoils of war – CyberPower Gamer Dragon 9000 gaming rigs that include the latest AMD Phenom II processors and ATI graphics cards, a wide screen monitor, top of the line keyboards, and other cool prizes. The defeated will be lost and forgotten.

CyberPower is teaming up with online gaming community Xfire for its Operation Flashpoint Video Capture Contest, which features over $5,000 worth of prizes. And, all you have to do to keep the world safe and win these prizes is to record some grisly raw Operation Flashpoint game footage with the Xfire Video Capture application function and get your friends to vote for your video.

From October 9th to 20th, Xfire is holding an Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising Video Capture Contest to coincide with the official launch of Codemaster’s much-anticipated tactical war game. To take home a CyberPower gaming rig and other sweet prizes participants need to record the most "Cool" votes on their Operation Flashpoint Video Capture Contest videos. You can start collecting votes as soon as your video is uploaded. So, lock and load, and take no prisoners to win a CyberPower system.

To enter the contest visit Xfire’s official contest site http://www.xfire.com/cms/xf_flashpoint/ , which details the rules and how to upload your videos.

Video capture prize categories include: Best Team Assault; Best Kill or Worst Death; and the General category for anything ultra cool and entertaining in Dragon Rising. Operation Flashpoint pushes the limit of authenticity of first person shooter games with its gritty depiction of modern infantry combat. You will need to rely on both your urban and field warfare training to survive.

CyberPower is even offering a Grand Prize Turbocharge whereby you are cordially invited to visit CyberPower’s forums, register, and post a link to your uploaded contest entry video in the thread.

  Intel have released an article about OFP:DR General    




LIKE GAMING HARDWARE, the balance of geopolitical power is always in flux. Back in 2001, when the first Operation Flashpoint* game was released, Cold War tension was still being shaken off. For that reason, its battlefields were fictional Northern European islands in the Baltic Sea where Communist hardliners threatened to overrun a small NATO garrison.

The PC-only game won many plaudits for its authenticity as a military simulator. It was also part of the first wave of first-person shooters to move beyond the run-and-gun corridor and involve the player in tactical squad-based decision making. Players quickly learned you couldn’t cross an open field with all guns blazing in a game that included real-world ballistics and one-shot kills. You wouldn’t even hear the shot that took you down, let alone see the shooter.

Throw in the ability to jump into jeeps, armored vehicles, and helicopters, and small wonder Operation Flashpoint went on to sell over a million units.

Fast-forward eight years, and the world’s focus has moved eastward, dominated more by pragmatic fears over the future supply of natural resources rather than ideology. So when oil and gas reserves are discovered on Skira, a sparsely populated Russian-owned island in the Sea of Japan, a resurgent Chinese People’s Liberation Army (PLA) is quick to take advantage of the situation. Once again acting as the world’s policeman, the U.S. Marine Corps is called into action to recapture the island.

Welcome to Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising.
