Xbox Series X Retrocompatible
i remember my dad rented this and i played the shit out of it.
Shooter Sims should just not be on console.
This feels like one of those fake games you see someone playing in a TV show
this game sucked ass
This is such a dad game. And dads suck
Playing this feels like trying to perform brain surgery on tranquilisers.
My least favorite game of all time, the biggest letdown ever, holy crap what a worthless game. I smashed it with an axe in the rain in my backyard, then berried the pieces.
From the big-brained geniuses at Codemasters, developers of such acclaimed hits as "Bodycount", "GRID: Legends", and approximately 500,000 other racing titles that you've never touched, comes a tactical military shooter so audacious that it could have only been released during the seventh generation of console hardware.
Built entirely on the same engine used to power their "Colin McRae: Dirt" series, "Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising" is sloppy, buggy, shockingly low-fidelity, and, most of all, not very fun to play! You try cramming a keyboard's worth of controls onto an Xbox 360 controller with radial menus and let me know how that goes for you. There is, supposedly, artificial intelligence of some kind in the game, but I never did see proof of that; instead, I remember spending more time watching enemies snipe my teammates from three kilometers away with laser precision, painfully subjected to squad commands breaking during combat, all while chugging along at a healthy 22 frames per second.
Not sure what Codemasters was thinking in 2009! They rightfully went straight back to racing and sports titles and haven't looked back. Fuckin' dorks.

The score is purely nostalgia...
The game is amazing, single-player was a blast. Open world combat missions. Comanding, guns vehichles.
And don't get me started on the OST it's pure art.
opening the main menu and looking at the end credits is just just
can't describe it
Can hear it as I'm writing this
hurts me what codemasters did with the third one. and yes bohemia carried the series but this still was an amazing game all around.

a pretty casual tactical shooter, was fun to play.
Calling this game "realistic" is just code for "it sucks ass".
No where deep as Arma, but also not as broken and buggy as Arma. A pretty solid mil-sim able to stand on its own 2 feet, play the PC version for the best experience.
To be fair, this was one of those games that I just didn't really "get".
Props for trying to make a grounded war simulator but it gets tedious and frustrating real fast.
