Im honestly on about my 50th try. This is getting really frustrating.

Seriously, this is just ridiculous. I think I am done with this game already.

On the 3rd mission where you have to take out the sams, you have to go way up on the cliffs arround the town and attack from there, Also where you kill the second Rocket guy theres a Ammo Crate beside the house, Thre you will find a nice gun plus the Queen Bee Missile launcher.

Hope that helps.

I know exactly what You mean, I am on the 5th Mission and it is just a load of crap.

Spoiler

There is supposed to be a diversionary attack, but no PLA Soldiers leave, so its 4 guys against 30. The Mission Structure in this game is not very realistic, i dont care how bad A** a team you have, You would never assault a fortified position when you are outnumbered 5-1.

And the Glitches, PLA Soldiers shooting through Oil tanks and actually hitting me? This game could have used about another year in Development to actually flesh out the problems because it is sale as Sh** right now.

I heard the strategy guide really helps

Re: E3 - Operation Flashpoint2 - hardcore fps

To the guys getting stuck, what difficulty level are you playing? If playing alone, do you think you might have a better chance on co-op?

Re: E3 - Operation Flashpoint2 - hardcore fps

I can't get past the mission where you have to take out the 3 AA gunners. I have literally tried about 25 times. There are just so many enemy troops. I am about to break the disc.

What mission is this? All I can tell you is if you are playing on normal, follow the way points. Some times the checkpoints don't save, and following the way points allows the next series of communications to come through and hopefully save. In one particular mission I hit the next objective and it didn't save. I died and had to do it again. The next time through I slowed way down thinking it might actually coax the save to work...and it did.

If you didn't know, you can send individual members of your team on a flank or suppression fire while you flank a position. Press R1/RB and flick up and down on the left stick or flick left for the entire squad. Once I read that I send them on a flank and I keep the enemies head down or I tell my heavy gunner to suppress.

Level 8 was my favorite level so far. It's intense.

If this is the generator one:

Spoiler

Follow the waypoints to the left of the tanks. There is a small house on the hill with a guard or two. You can take them out silently and the radio tells you to make it your OP. Stay silent and make sure your team is set to hold fire. The radio will again tell you that the diversion is a minute away. I sat there for about 2 mins and the radio came alive again and told me to go. There was maybe about 5 people at the base when I finally attacked.

And the wedge formation is your friend.

actually it does work.

Spoiler

My mission stats said I died 10 times, until one time i literally just crouch-ran to each yellow marker. when you get to the last one, make your team wait while you sneak up to the guy in the shed - kill him without raising the alarm (either knife which is risky, or one good clean headshot - maybe squeeze off 2 quickly to make sure)...if you don't raise the alarm you get the diversion...escaping is still tricky though.

just wanted to say. Even though saving the pilot mission is hard as hell, man was it intense I had a shootout in it that reminded me of the movie heat. it was like 10-15 minutes of non stop agressive fire.

I agree. I am sure there is a way to complete the missions, but I am seeing a ton of glitches and bad AI. My squad routinely walks out into open areas only to get gunned down. You would think in a game like this, they would know to stay behind cover. Also when I am down and need a medic, I will call for one 10 times and no one will show up. Even when I am behind cover.

The game is becoming way to frustrating for me.

too bad you guys aren't enjoying the game...I wish I knew exactly what the problem is. I'm not seeing the same stuff you are. The best thing would be for you guys to co-op campaign it seems like. IThe only one I had problems with is fuel station and I had a ton of them, but once I got it, it was actually pretty easy aside from the getaway, but once you get there you get to start from there, so it was pretty simple.

My biggest gripe is that I'm always fire-team leader. They have all these guns in the game and classes, but you only get to enjoy them in multiplayer. I've played 2 missions IDEAL for sniping and there's even a sniper team involved in the attack, but i'm forced to be an m16 fire-team leader. They really should have added some elemets giving you more freedom on how you want to play. 7 missions in and no sniper and I believe there are 11 total. I think there might not be one at all...and even so, 1 isn't enough for me.

I hope they somehow add a dlc to allow you to choose your team for each mission and the member within that team.

Mission 8, you need a sniper rifle and you get one of an enemy at the beginning.

Mission 10. you get the .50 Cal at the start. Good Times with that beast.

I agree, I wish you can pick the loadout. The campaign I don't mind, but at least for when you play Single Missions.

Re: E3 - Operation Flashpoint2 - hardcore fps

Are most of you guys playing 360?
I'm looking to pick this up for the PC Monday...as the PC has the mods and they usually are fantastic.
I'm wondering if they are all taken from the same basic build?

Some good impressions here and thanks.

The Game needs a Patch ASAP, PC will get a patch first so Its probably a good idea. I played a little bit today, and the Squad AI is the thing that pisses me off the most. Dont get me wrong, They do alot of right things but they do some really stupid Sh**. For Example, i want my Team to go in a house so they will have some protection, But I always have one guy you stands outside the house and then i have to re-arrange my plan because he is stupid.

I wish I could tell my team the Direction to expect fire at, if I am expecting a ambush in a certain direction, I should be able to tell my team to face that way. I like Online but i am getting alot of glitches in it that really stink.
