Operation flashpoint Dragon rising.

    Remember that game Operation flashpoint dragon rising? I got that when it came out and well, I suck at it so I put it away. However I love the graphics etc and want to play it again. The problem is that because I suck at it I cant get past the mission where you have to plant bombs in an enemy base.. so I was wondering, can I get a savefile or something somewhere or is there any other way I can basically cheat cause I couldnt be arsed trying that mission again and again and again.
    Thanks

    I believe that we all agreed never to discuss this game again due even mentioning the name of it, is enough to put everyone here in a bad mood for an entire week!!! ;)

    You now understand why... do yourself a favour and send that disk back to Codemasters with a nasty letter*!

    *preferably with an IED attached ;)

    I actually thought it was one of the most enjoyable single player games in a long time. The multiplayer wasnt great at all.

    Its been quite a while since i played it, but is this the mission were you are attacking a fuel depot looking place at the bottom of a sort of valley? if so i found the best way was to flank as far left as you possibly can and come in from the oposite side. then work your way clockwise to the entrance.

    Without a doubt its a case of being ****e. Its a shame because the original was a great game. Felt so pissed off at codemasters and their miserable treatment that I've vowed
    never to buy anything from them again.

    I personally couldnt tell if the game was any good.... My character was pretty adept at calling "MEDIC" though!:o

    Now, SEE WHAT YOU'VE DONE!!! You've opened up that wound again!!! Naughty boy, you been a very naughty boy... :D

    For the record, it had amazing potential and we were all extremely excited about it. I had huge expectations for the game.

    However, the final product lacked polish (very glitchy), ridiculously stupid AI that had super vision and the multiplayer should have had an option of a 8v8 team deathmatch. Then it would have been interesting without those AI guys messing about around you.... there's way more I could go into but I'm starting to get angry and need to go chill out for a while ;)

    Codemasters were just the publishers of the first game. Bohemia Interactive, made the first game, its addons and then went on to make the ArmA games.

    Codemasters decided themselves to make Flashpoint 2 as they still owned the IP.

    Thats why BI didn't call ArmA Flashpoint 2.

    I knew this anyway but I'm not sure why you felt the need to tell me?

    In your post it does not read as if you were aware of that fact as most people are not and assume Codemasters just went downhill.

    You just bashed Codemasters (and rightly so) without mentioning that it was BI who made the first.

    I'd love to see BI take a shot at the 360 platform with ArmA2, I think there were rumors of that happening a while back but I don't think it will. I never played Flashpoint on the Xbox so I don't know how the controls would cross over without effecting the gameplay.

    It pains me to even comprehend that I have the full 1000 gamerscore for this game. What a horrible time in my life that was.

    the AI usually were doing something like this guy when you were getting your ass kicked
