Operation Flashpoint

[Samurai Waki]

Anyone still playing probably the best small arms war simulator to date?

I've been playing the FFUR mods for some time now, and they add so much to the original game (no more soldiers that run around like they've broke their back), better animations, you can peak around corners, hi-res textures, and still good mp functionality to boot.

I still play it a good deal when I have the time. I can't play online though.
Where would I find these mods? I could probably get a friend to download them for me to further enhance OpFlash.

Do you have the expansions?

Here's the place where you can get the FFUR mods... also you might want to check

Unfortunately due to it's age, and other sites having some funding issues these are the most reliable sites.

If you haven't checked out the Finnish Defense Force Mod, thats also one well worth playing.

OFP still has one of the largest modding communities in the world, just finding good sites is tough.

If you've got a good computer (Geforce 5 or higher/ Radeon 9 series Graphics Cards) definantly get DXLL which forces trilinear filtering and reflective water.

I played it when it first came out, but I quickly got tired of the rest of my squad getting themselves killed and being told I had lost the mission......

Well in some respects the tactics in OFP are as critical to not taking losses as the tactics in RTW are, obviously if you charge head first into an enemy (with AK-47s Mind you!), he's going to take the opportunity to either ambush you or get into a prone/ready stance. Flanking is the key.

Yeah, but when you start out as a nobody and your buddies all run off and get themselves killed...not much you can do. I remember one of the early missions being driven by jeep to some woods. Within seconds my 3 comrades were dead. Through stealth and patience I managed to kill all the Russians in the wood on my own, but still lost the mission cos the 3 AI guys in my team got themselves killed. Several similar missions later and I gave up.
