Operation Flashpoint 2 Online

Welcome to the video section ofp2 online.  some of you may have already seen the first quarter of the video footage already, where a team of US troops rush a derelict building. This extended version shows off   more of what codemasters can really produce. The video footage boasts very impressive model animation and physics. Even the explosions are a form of eye candy!

Some of the later scenes show various in game warfare across different parts of the island. Showing a number of different gaming scenarios from foot soldier to mini gun helicopter firing.

First it was the FN SCAR Assault rifle then it was the grenade so whats next? Well i’m sure the ofp gaming community are familiar with anti-tank based weaponry? Unlike the FN SCAR riffle this piece of military kit is American made! The missile launcher is man portable so targeting enemy tanks within game should be a breeze and introduce interesting gameplay.

The anti-tank guided missile was introduced to replace the m47 dragon an old ageing launcher which was decommissioned in 1995, it was used in the gulf and iran/ iraq war. Its main failure was due to the underling fact that the missile could not effectively destory enemy targets.

The FGM-148 costs $80,000 so lets hope there is no Counter Strike based shopping carts! pretty much doubt it anyway! The javin is a fire and forget based weapon. The missile will lock onto its target and use automatic guidance to reach its destination and can reach upto 150 metres in altitude!

The technical more interesting features includes the main warhead (exploside projectile!) which includes two explosive warhead charges. Interestingly the two warheads act in two stages. The first warchead is detonated to destroy any reactive armor any vehicle may have where the second warhead is purely for maxium penetration and damage of the target. What was also interesting to point out was that the missle does have a launch delay, this is a safety feature so the operators dont actually get experience of back fire. (Was fun to watch the missile launch within the video footage!).

The weapon is totally mobile so imagine game-play when using this missile launcher to be fairly quick paced. Even though the footage didnt directly show human exposure the launcher does require a two man team within operation.

Operation Flashpoint 2 footage is all over the OFP2 community, it doesn’t take long before your confronted with yet another sleek weapon preview where the developers have given sneak real time model rendering of various weaponry. Today I would like to introduce the grenade! simple yet effective!

Unlike the FN Scar Assault rifle mentioned previously, its self explanatory to say the least. If I come across any new footage or weaponry I have not encountered before I will try and introduce the new weapon in-depth, so gamers can get a true realistic feel and understanding of in-game weaponry!

I would like to kick things off with the FN Scar assault combat rifle made by Fabrique Nationale de Herstal hence the abbreviation FN. They are a belgian based manufacturer of firearms and have created other well known weapons such as the p90 sub-machine gun and other FN prefixed weaponry.

The FN Scar comes in two main flavours, the light SCAR-L and the heavy SCAR-H, depending on the barrel size is dependant on the environment and range of the given target. I can imagine OFP2 will adopt the long range version simply because of the gaming geographical environment.

The video didn’t however show the grenade launcher module. The weapon in reality can attached a module for grenade propulsion. Will OFP2 in-corporation this also? Specifications are still very brief!

Keep posted for more video weaponry

Welcome back to OFP2:ONLINE! I have yet another in gamer footage of the upcoming fps games simulator Operation Flashpoint 2. The footage is based on the xbox 360 platform and should show us gamers what to expect for the up-coming release.

The video starts off with a sand/ grass terrain with your squad pushing north into further grass surroundings. There is suddenly a point when there is smoke everywhere! soldiers pushing forward from all angles! You can clearly see the game in full swing, from vehicles to different squads members you name it! Just think of the ofp2 multiplayer capabilities!

Stay posted for more videos!

I usually frown upon streaming video content over the internet, Gaming graphics has continued to advance since the early days of death match, things have come along way and this is why streaming videos @ 320×240 resolution does not do the game any justice! So I have provided a download link so the community can get the full aspect of the game in full true detail, well nearly! codemasters official video.

OFP2 Online will try to bring the operation flashpoint 2 community as many high quality videos as possible, either in the form of  links or direct media, who knows but we will do it!
For those of you who don’t wish to download the full High Definition video and would like a quick teaser then check out this low quality video of a Operation Flashpoint 2 teaser hosted on you tube.
