New Operation Flashpoint: Red River screen shows off amazing vistas and particle effects

Recently posted to the official Operation Flashpoint: Red River website as part of the regular 'Postcards from the Frontline' feature, Creative Director Sion Lenton had this to say about the new screenshot.

"As promised here is the second instalment of ‘Postcards from the Frontline’. Images taken by the developers of Operation Flashpoint from the coal face of development.

Today’s entry was taken by Akuila Iliesa (QA Technician) on Xbox 360 and shows off our awesome environment and particle system, as well as our impressive CAS (Close Air Support) system."

but will it be enough who knows

DavidMacDougall4849d ago

Ain't buying anything till i see the PS3 version, you hid the PS3 version of Dragon Rising until release only showing PC and 360 so your not to be trusted.

Fred-G-Sanford4849d ago

Remember the bullshots of Dragon Rising that were being passed around before its release?

I do, and because of that I will "believe it when I see it" in regards to anything with the name Operation Flashpoint. lol

bumnut4849d ago

hope its better than dragon rising, that game had serious problems

DraconicPanda4849d ago

all the pretty visuals in the world can't make up for absolutely retarded AI. hopefully they know and address this now...

New Operation Flashpoint: Red River screen shows off amazing vistas and particle effects..........but the game is still shit.

LOOK_AT_THIS_I4849d ago (Edited 4849d ago )

yep, they really screwed us with the ps3 version last go around. The reviews were held back and misleading when they were released, and I based my purchase off all the positives from the pc community so I bit. My mistake, not again, the online portion didnt work on release, the ai was almost the worst to date of any game, they held back content from the game and then tried to release the overpriced dlc to the people that supported them in the first place. Unreal, hopefully this hits the budget bin fast and maybe they will learn a lesson not to purposely screw the consumer because you can get away with it this generation.

MARKUS_MAX1MUS4849d ago

Oh dont worry us xbox gamers were ripped off aswell! they advertised vehicles galore on huge maps with the BEST EVA! AI apparently.

They also didnt even bother to patch the online which was unplayable on 8 v 8 peer to peer which is just embarassing and not to mention how much the graphics on the explosions sucked after they were hyped up.

Lets not forget the videos of flying cobras etc where in the actual game you only got to fly 2 transport choppers and a mini bird on tiny maps.

The senior lead simon somebody or other is the biggest bullshitter this generation of gaming.

LOOK_AT_THIS_I4848d ago

lmao...well its good to hear that they just suck when it comes to developing for the consoles. still hearing about how they are so great on the pc front, but I am done getting burnt by these garbage ass games that the reviewers get paid to hype "sell to us with lies"

Codies should stick to racing games.

Off Topic: John man I can't wait for your game!

Some mediocre - crap games there. Couldn't even include any Codemasters racing games? It's the only thing they're good at.

Canadiangamernet3569d ago

Including the Dirt series in the bundle would have been awesome but i wouldn't say they are crappy games. I liked Overlord 1 & 2 and both Operation Flashpoint are decent FPS the other one are so so for me.

guitarded773569d ago

Like I said... crappy to mediocre. I liked Overlord too. Didn't care for Operation Flashpoint. But eve liking Overlord, I have no illusions that it isn't a mediocre game.

AntsPai3569d ago

Even though it's still technically a good deal, the whole $5 or £4 thing annoys me. Humble bundle doesn't do this. No thanks.

Operation Flashpoint: Red River - The Shooter That Could Have Been The Greatest

Mobile & Apps: "One of the most underrated shooters of the previous generation was Operating Flashpoint: Red River for the Xbox 360, PS3, and PC. With all its problems, I believe this is a game that is worth playing, however, it is not too hard to see why the game didn't quite kick off, as it should have."

I liked it, didn't quite finish it though. Maybe I will now.

Codj4127d ago

Loved this game, it was dumbed down from Dragon Rising but still an enjoyable game. Was still offputting to people looking for instant/non stop action

Theangrybogan4127d ago

Ha! Some colleagues and I are actually planning on hitting this one up tonight. Great game.
