Just wondering who here has it or has played it. I'm pretty sure its the sequel to Operation Flashpoint, a game which I loved.
I think the general reviews its getting is about 80%. Its very realistic, as its predecessor was, when it comes to combat; meaning you can die after a few well placed shots and thus spawn back again.

The maps are totally HUGE, possible the biggest in any game. Sizes of over 400 square kilometers. 30 weapons, 30 vehicles, Sp/Mp, HDR lighting, etc etc...

"built upon an engine which allows for huge numbers of players, bandwidth and PC hardware willing numbers of 100+ are possible with game modes also as extensive."

Also what I saw and liked the idea was the 'Capture the Island' where battles can go on for days, overtaking villages. You could leave the game and come back to it later on. The community are always making mods for it too.

Edit: its out march 2007 in the uk but already out in germany/czech....hmm, lucky buggers
