If it takes days to walk the whole island, how many days would it take to walk the whole thing if half of the worlds army's were screaming around on it?
One more day.
[QUOTE=tomj;16917728]I have a feeling that because this is going to be released on consoles (not trying to sound elitist here) it won't be any good.
One of the best things about OFP, ARMA and ARMA 2 are the mods and modding capability. By releasing it on console, they are severely limiting the community.
Also, most console players are much more oriented toward mindless games, not deep tactical sims like OFP. Although this shouldn't be a problem for PC, if they make the game the same on all systems, it will be dumbed down for consoles, then the PC version will suffer as well.[/QUOTE]
Well yeah I agree with all of that. Tried writing up some kind of rebuttle but you're right...
Still looks pretty cool, we'll see how it comes out. If this is a disapointment I'll always have BFBC2.
[QUOTE=hl2poo;16912628]I'm getting MW2 over this heap of shit.[/QUOTE]
At least it beats it in the 'Ridiculous collector's edition' title.

I'm still gonna keep my eyes on this.
You're just jealous.

This game looks awesome. If anything, MW2 is an unrealistic unfun same-as-cod4 heap of shit.
Shutup, COD4 was a great game. I don't care if it has a shit community and was overhyped in the minds of the people who hated it.
I still play it.
I'll probably get this when the 360 version comes down in price (I'd get it for the pc if my graphics card wasn't shit), it seems almost perfect for me, it's not TOO realistic like ARMA 2 (I found the demo very boring and WAAAY to hard to get the hang of) but not too unrealistic.

I'm not sure if MW2 was even meant to be realistic. It's supposed to be an arcade style game.
Not sure how you can compare this game to MW2.

MW2 isn't even being made to be realistic. IW said themselves they choose fun over realism anyday.

Only problem is it's not very fun after an hour or 2.

At least CoD4 wasn't and MW2's almost exactly like it

Did I say I was comparing them? You said you'd rather get MW2 than this.

Why mention how unrealistic MW2 is in this thread in the first place?
That other post you're talking about, read the post above it. It was meant to be a joke.

Well no you didn't say you were comparing them...you just compared them. Nobody needs to say "MW2 looks like shit compared to this" because nobody cares. I'll be honest and say I'm buying MW2 over this just because I trust IW's COD games to be great.

[QUOTE=SnakeHead;13814719]Have you even played Operation Flashpoint, or ArmA? These types of games are very realistic.
The game looks good, but I'm more interested in Arma 2, since it's being made by Bohemia Interactive Studio, the actual developers of Operation Flashpoint, I love how Codemasters stole the name just because they published it.[/QUOTE]
Well they do own it you know.
I'd think this game will try something different (Well not compared to ArmA 2), loved by some, get laughed at by ArmA 2 fans, picked up by wannabe weaboo military 8 year-olds, then thrown away as soon as MW2 comes out.
Personally would priotise MW2 over this.

Wow you're a retard. MW2 isn't the same fucking deal. It's a completely different fucking game, wake the fuck up.

This certain "different fucking game" will have a terrible 8-year old community, will have a shitty story, and will have a bandwagon effect similar to that of Halo.
At least war sims are realistic, and there are little kids to worry about.
Also, have a box for all of your ideas.

You're the bandwagoner here it seems, But yes i agree the fact that they stole the name from bis is low, doesn't mean the game will not be fun to play. Also the community is yours to make, if you want a good playerbase set up a server or play with friends. And just explain how the story in this will be so damn horrible?

And theres no need to talk about MW2, in a thread about Dragon rising.
This is going to be nothing like Operation Flashpoint. Also lol that Operation Arrowhead for Arma2 is coming out around the same time as this.
Looks pretty decent. I don't want to go all bragging but i think Arma 2 has better graphics and has more tactical fashion in it.
OPF 2 looks like it's focused on bigger battles wich is really nice in my opinion but this is abit far from original OPF.
I don't know wich is better Arma 2 or OPF 2 guess i should buy this and find out hehe.
Either way, this will be a step down from ArmA, and I like that, having a war sim that's not so serious, and hopefully more players. I just pray that the PC version is superior in terms of realism.
Good thing I didn't buy ARMA II. Apparently, OP 2 has better AI, a physics engine, and a new system of vehicle damage, among other improvements.

Hopefully it still has ballistics.
this game looks tight as fuck

hurdur, because realism means it's not fun.
Tell that to the people who play games like ARMA and ARMA 2
All 1000 of em.
It's being made for the Xbox 360 :ohdear:
Prepare for tacticool consoletards trying to sound 1337 and rushing each other.
