Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising [360/PS3/PC]

[Uli]

I'll say...

any other tidbits of info you could get the better!

I do like the harsh difficulty of it.
But the thing that detracts and takes me out of the experience the most, is just the disappearing bodies. I even had one disappear straight after i pilfered its goods! annoyed me a bit since i exchanged for a duff rifle in the process.

does this happen in co-op as well? anyway, i am sure a patch can fix this easily. it's just totally beyond me how this got through the QA, if there was any at all one might add. i will have a closer look at the credits to check this. maybe i can get me a new job in the games industry

It's not a bug, it's a "feature". Bodies just disappear after a set time period. A shame, but as with all the bugs in the game, it's like finding Beyonce waiting for you in bed, and complaining you don't like the colour of her lingerie.

Bug Madness!!!
After schlepping across miles of mountainous terrain with some dumb**** POW's who don't know whether their in Cork or New York,then clearing a base and waiting for the extraction helo.
The pilot completely fluffs his landing,coming in with way too much pitch,rotors hit the floor, resulting in an instant mission failure!

That's probably exactly what it's like being in the army. This game is super realistic!

EDIt - F it, starting an argument would be pointless.

Quoted for truth.

Im waiting to get killed then by my own teamates ( in another squad ) sometime soon if its super realistic.

[Malc]

It's clearly not a fault of the QA team or anyone in the actual dev team that this has a lot of bugs, you can guarentee that all the bugs people are complaining about have been known about long before the game was ever release.

The pressure would be from the head guys telling them to shove the game out well before Modern Warfare 2 or any other big releases as we get nearer to christmas.

[cavalcade]

Which is exactly what happened. Do you not feel like holding on to the game until the patch hits, or have you had enough Malc?

Not a fault of the game that's making me sell it. More the fault of Forza approaching next week.

not a bug but deliberate? you haven't played the game much, have you? the disappearing of bodies seem to follow no time rule here. some are instantly gone, other last for minutes.

i also found that if you play in co-op but you only have access on the weapons of certain bodies if you play as team leader. last night i friend showed me to a Marksman rifle but all i found was an empty inventory when i arrived. friend came back a got it for himself.

Randomly completed the beachhead mission, by doing nothing particularly different to the times I failed.

Still, enjoying it!

[^Katsu]

I'm on the final level now, failed at the final point when I accidentally climbed a wall and jumped into the sea... Having then crawled back I got took out in seconds as I just couldn't get into a covered sniping spot

Got me so so angry Love it!


I kept failing the beachhead also, until I restarted & kept the APV alive then it was uber easy finished it no worries.

[Uli]

system link co-op has its share of major bugs too. for instance i played as tank specialist but wasn't able to destroy a singe armoured vehicle with my AT weapon. my friend, being the leader, did it with just one shot while i stood aside firing all three rounds with no effect.

a constant annoyance is the lack of scoped rifles. somebody please tell me why the USMC is not able to provide their troops with proper equipment? a simple ACOG scope surely wont cost a fortune!

also: how come there are no checkpoints while playing co-op? a patch can't come soon enough...

[^Katsu]

VP & I were moaning about the checkpoint lack in COOP.

One huge frustration is the way that if you try to sneak up to an enemy for a stealthy knife kill, even at the worlds slowest crawl. When you get within 10 meters they suddely flip 180 degrees and shoot you in the face
Yet if you run into a building by accident and they are smack bang in front of you they stand and do nothing giving you the opportunity to kill at will?

Ammo crates that just don't open?


And the SATKA (stupid accidental team kill award) last nite ges to...... ME for stabbing Bletch in the face when several meters away 1 hit kill

Best 10 minute mission ever was had last nite too awesome fun

[prinnysquad]

Got all the mission complete achievements ... no completed campaign achievement.
Piss flaps.
