Na 2 jaar intensief deze game te hebben gespeeld wordt het nu wel eens tijd voor een Nederlandse OFP Forum.
Dit is zeker geen game voor alleen maar het nodige knal en schietwerk
Strategie is toch wel een must en teamwork al helemaal.
Vanaf het begin van de release van deze game zijn er gigantisch veel addons en weaponpacks en islands en ga zo maar door gemaakt en uitgebracht
Ook het aantal updates liegt er niet om het is in iedergeval zo dat men bij BIS (de ontwikkelaar) er in ieder geval hard aan werken om de game zo smooth mogelijk te laten draaien met zo min mogelijk BUGS
Ik ben ook eigenlijk benieuwd wat de NL'ers van deze game vinden en ervaren.
Tips en Tweaks voor de game zijn welkom en ook de coolste OFP servers.
Ooooh en niet te vergeten ook vette action screenshots zijn welkom

Operation Flashpoint Cold War Crisis
-----------------------------------------------
"It does everything a great game should do: it entertains, dramatizes, excites, and most important, compels you to play it again and again and again... It's about as close as you can get really being in the Army, without the potato peeling."
Computer Gaming World
Overview:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Operation Flashpoint brings the player the most complex war game experience ever. It offers unprecedented freedom of action integrating command of larger squads and use of any available vehicles with total immersion. Operation Flashpoint simulates the best cold war military equipment - infantry, mobile, armored and aircraft.
Operation Flashpoint has won universal acclaim for its realism of simulating military conflict situations on PC, even to the extent where the game's technology has been adapted for real soldiers to use as a special combat training application VBS1.
Main Features:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Try what it takes to be a soldier in war: Accurately modeled U.S. and Soviet Cold War gear available
Drive and fly over 30 authentic vehicles and aircraft: Complete infantry, mobile, armor and aircraft in one single tactical game with full immersion
Command squads of troops: Commanding of up to 12 units with plenty of tactical and strategic options
Play the enthralling campaign or solo missions: Using stealth, tactics or all-out-assault to combat your enemies
Explore sprawling 100km2 battlezones: Large-scale, highly accurate and detailed 3D environment with accurate visual representation of modern military
Create your own mission and scenarios: Built-in, full featured mission editor
Multiplayer combat over LAN and Internet: Full support of commanding options, all types of units and weapons
"Operation Flashpoint: Cold War Crisis will capture your mind. It's the sort of experience you want to show people photos of." Edge
1985: Cold War Crisis:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As President Ronald Reagan begins his second term in the White House a little-known politician, Mikhail Gorbachev, becomes leader of the Soviet Union. Gorbachev is a reformer who wants to create a new era of peace and co-operation with the Western world. He uses terms like "Glasnost" and "Perestroika" - modernist policies which involve a re-structuring of the Soviet state and a move away from the old tensions of the Cold War.
Gorbachev's appointment causes immediate tensions; many of the Communist's old guard', from Generals to Regional Politicians, refuse to accept him and chaos ensues. After a few days the central government manages to control the situation and the country falls into an uneasy truce with itself. But in some outlying areas, often controlled by powerful men with their own agendas, the situation remains dangerously unclear and the Soviet Government loses any real sense of power.
One such area is the Malden Islands group: Everon, a peaceful independent republic, Malden itself, another independent state which contains an important NATO strategic base, and Kolguyev, a Soviet outpost controlled by General Ivan Vasilii Guba - an old-school Communist general who firmly believes in the harshest of Cold War policies. Guba has set himself up as some kind of feudal warlord from his stronghold on Kolguyev and refuses to listen to any orders from Moscow. The island has become a staging post for his well-equipped modern army to attempt to control the surrounding area and then… who knows?

Operation Flashpoint - Resistance
------------------------------------------
"Operation Flashpoint: Resistance has such a complete campaign, single mission, updated AI, and revised front end, it could very well be a stand alone package on its own. Operation Flashpoint: Resistance is the expansion by which all other expansions should be measured."
Wargamer.com
Overview:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Operation Flashpoint: Resistance is the official expansion to Operation Flashpoint: Cold War Crisis. Resistance is set years before Operation Flashpoint's Cold War reached crisis point, and delivers a campaign which forms a prequel to the original game's plot.
The game casts the player as Victor Troska, an experienced ex-Special Forces soldier. Having turned his back on his military past, Troska has settled into respectable civilian life on an island just a short distance from the original game's three islands.
However, his situation changes when Soviet forces invade the island group, destroying Troska's idyllic dreams. Reluctant at first to return to a conflict situation, he is forced to participate in, and then lead, the ramshackle Resistance effort, which grows up in response to the Soviet occupation.
