While I like the game,more and more as I play it..I am slightly vexed by the hype......Having seen the promo stuff of "In game,gameplay video,etc etc"...im just wondering ,did I buy the right OFP 2?... I think this doesnt do... "exactly like it says on the tin"

hopefully it will be patched to resemble it..

I wondered why it retailed in my asda for a meagre £22.71p (minus my staff discount of 10%)..

They are trying to compete with ArmA2. It is retailed here in the US for $39.99. In my opinion was way to over-hyped and was built for the console.

I understand the idea, to make a game that isn't as hard as Arma2 for the uninitiated. The consensus seems to be, however, that they missed the mark. I've not tried it myself yet (I'm waiting for a demo), but it does sound more like a game designed for consoles that also is on PC.

I bougth OFP2 a few days back and it is good but not great. The mission editor is fun to play with though and I see with a little modding and patching this game can have a long life on my HDD.

Like JediMaster I'am waiting for a demo. But from what I've read in comparison with ArmA2- it's more arcade with less HW demands. In other aspects they are remarkably similar - initial release is buggy, SP is short, you'll get to use only limited part of included vehicles and weapons, mission difficulty and AI preformance varies greatly. The island looks a bit barren (the real Kiska is probably more so :grin: ) Don't know how easy it is to mod(and how big community will form around it), if you can control more than the 4 man squad, does the engine support more than 1 gunner per vehicle(helicopter door gunners, pintle mounted MG on tanks etc.)?

The AI is very dumb in OFP2. My squad members were unloading all their rounds into a disabled tank that still had a live enemy AI inside it. They all just stood there continually firing at the tank with rifle bullets. Don't the developers know that rifle rounds can't penetrate a tank?
