E3 - Operation Flashpoint2 - hardcore fps

Re: E3 - Operation Flashpoint2 - hardcore fps

Why don't I have the option to just restart the chapter? C'mon Codemasters. If I finish the map in free play will it unlock the next one? I could do that. Maybe I'll give that a try.

When I played the campaign (11 missions), if got killed I had the option to resume from the last checkpoint or from the beginning of the mission.

You are correct. The problem is, I can't even load the game to get killed and restart. So now I'm stuck. I rebooted, did nothing. I actually played the mission from the single mission menu went back for the heck of it and still loads a partially black screen. The save is just corrupted for some reason. Very disappointed and I really really liked this game.

I stopped playing this game back in october or september, about 2 weeks after launch when I got stuck and it wouldnt allow me to resume from the last check point either.

I scoured the web, couldn't find a fix.

I never had a problem with the saves not loading when I was going through with save points. Just curious.. do you have the game saved to HDD or are you running from disk? I have it on HDD..

Re: E3 - Operation Flashpoint2 - hardcore fps

It was off of disk. I did find some others on the Codemasters forums that had the same thing, and they had to delete their campaigns and start over again. So I just sent it back to GF today. Really liked the game too. Oh well.

I just bought the console version and its really not that good. I couldn't find the mission editor.

Its my fault though. I already have ARMAII on pc, and I should've known that console versions of these type of games pale when comparing the pc counterparts.

console versions do not have a mission editor.

Each has their place. Console version is very good for what it's supposed to bring. I love my PC gaming also but again each bring things to the table.
A little searching would have revealed to you that it didn't have an editor....

Is the campaign long enough to keep me busy? I'm not into online...

Yes. Partly because its tough and you will be restarting and replaying parts of missions (or the whole mission if you play on hardcore mode with no checkpoints).
On normal mode I hit some glitched checkpoints where I had to restart the entire mission. Especially the last mission (11) which alone took me nearly 12 hours.

I pop it in from time to time. Only two trophies short of platinum, but one of them is "finish the campaign on Hardcore," and needless to say, that's not easy.

I suspect it's easier if you do it coop, but even then, I tried that a couple times, and if I died (hosting), then it's just as bad (playing for 30 minutes only to be forced into starting over) with the added pressure of feeling like a dope cause it's your death that ends the mission. "Okay guys, I died again. Let's start over."

Ugh.

The last part of Mission 3 in particular is where I'm stuck.

Really like the game, though. Very unique (for consoles, at least) and I adore the atmosphere.

Re: E3 - Operation Flashpoint2 - hardcore fps

Yea, its a great game. I don't think I will ever beat the game on hardcore. Its hard enough on experienced to me.

The single player isn't why I like it so much. Infiltration has got to be one of the best modes in a video game. If I could get all my buddies to transfer to this game I would never stop playing it. So far I and one other friend own it. I need to get my remaining friends to come over. They like the older Ghost Recons, so they should at least be willing to try this out.

I told them its basically like a first person Ghost Recon 2, but just even better.
