Curating - This is the process of actually adding the game to Flashpoint. It requires testing the game using procedures detailed in our curation guides. It takes about 30 minutes to do the first time, but as you learn the process you can get it under 5 minutes.
To get started, follow our Curation Tutorial. Once you curate a game, it will be saved and added to the next version of Flashpoint.

Q: How do I tell what platform a game is? You have to take control of a Marine Corps soldier, who consists of a squad of four soldiers.

Also, your team will be accompanied by a colorful commander named Knox, who issues instructions and in every possible way encourages his colleagues.
The gameplay itself in "Operation Flashpoint: Red River" is a measured alternation of firefights and movement across locations. At the beginning of the game, you will be given to choose one of 4 classes - shooter, grenade launcher, scout and machine gunner. They have their own set of weapons and skills, but over time it will be possible to buy new abilities and weapons, which will greatly dilute the gameplay.. And for avid "shooter fans", the developers have introduced a cooperative mode to experience the full scale of the shootings together with friends, creating plans for the offensive and covering the rear of your allies.
But there is also a standard network mode, where battles will be played out between several teams. So our goal is not to have gratuitous giblets like Quake , we have context sensitive damage where if you get hit say, in the arm, the texture will actually seep blood in that area. No other game does that. You can have flesh wounds, you can get incapacitating damage, you can get catastrophic damage.
A flesh wound is dangerous - if I don't get attention in a certain amount of time I will bleed to death. Just like real life a light hit can be deadly. And just like real life, it's intended to be a genuinely shit-the-bed terrifying experience.
As Lindop says, "I think people will walk away with a serious respect for the guys that stand out there and do it. Even in the game when. The venerable franchise appears to be in safe hands. Purists may baulk at the development on PlayStation 3 and Xbox and the use of the words "fun" and "accessible". To be honest, OpFlash 2 doesn't seem to be either, which is good, and it looks set to redefine the military experience for a war-sawy audience numbed to atrocities by nightly TV reports.
A massive undertaking, there's a definite "done when it's done" mentality, with a loose release date of simply Used in Iraq, they can be vulnerable to roadside bombs IEDs, or improvised explosive devices, in army jargon. As anyone who has spent any time with the military will have been reminded, this is not a tank: it is an IFV, or Infantry Fighting Vehicle, used for carrying troops around.
When you're stuck in the back with bullets pinging off the exterior, you know you're in a war. An upgraded version of the Cobra - hence it's nickname the SuperCobra - this four-bladed gunship is primarily used by the US Marine Corps. In the game you'll be able to fly it and live out your Apocalypse Now fantasies by laying waste to great swathes of Chinese infantry. You Know How it is.
Then you realise you're a hardcore military simulation. That's just how things go in the world of ultra-realistic military games, such as Operation Flashpoint and its rival ArmA. Death can come from anywhere, at any time and with extreme prejudice, as they say in the US.
From what we've played of Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising, it isn't just a jollied-up action-fest tainted by the foul stench of console corruption. While you can see nods to the machines our half-brothers insist on using, like the radial menus used to give commands to your squad, that doesn't mean this sequel is a watered-down arcade game. In fact, while we wouldn't say it's as brutally realistic as ArmA II, only the insane will scoff at Dragon Rising for not being realistic enough.
The preview build we got our hands on contained two missions, but both of these were large enough in scope to indicate that there's going to be plenty to get stuck into when the full game arrives.
The first was your standard infiltration mission: you lead a four-man team on a quest to disable a Chinese early-warning system, enabling your fleet to get into position without alerting the main enemy force to their presence. After completing this - it has to be done within a certain time frame or the fleet has to abort the mission - you then move on to securing a coastal village and a landing zone, or perhaps even driving around looking for secondary objectives to complete.
Interestingly, fulfilling one of these opened up another one, so pursuing these seem to be worth it. The second mission involved a beach assault This is a realistic game, remember, so we're not dealing with scripted excitement here. Thanks to your death-defying antics in the previous mission, you've been able to get onto the beach unmolested by enemy artillery. You see people on TV or in films complaining about the perils of command, but it Jk seems pretty swish to us. Send the grunts in first then take the glory once a mission has been completed.
Early builds of the game made us slightly wary of how the AI - both enemy and friendly - was going to pan out. The usual assurances were bandied about by Codies - claims that everything would be OK in the end, glitches would be fixed before release and so on.
Usually this sort of thing is treated with an "Of course," and a resolute " However, we've been corrected on this one, as the AI is definitely much, much better than it was before. You've probably taken a good look at all the pretty pictures dotted around these pages already. You may even have chuckled at some of the mildly amusing captions too. Let's concentrate on the pictures though, for now. What it also has is a draw distance of approximately 32km, so you can stand on top of the dead volcano situated on the eastern side of the island and, provided the dynamic weather conditions are aligned correctly, see all the way to the other side.
The volcano still doesn't have a secret ninja training base. But we're working on it. The scale of the island is important to the gameplay too. Missions last a substantial period of time, so you've got time to take in the scenery and devise devious tactical approaches using the in-game map from which you can issue orders.
While you won't be going from jungle to snow to swamp back to desert - there's enough to keep amateur botanists interested. There are a few of areas of interest -such as some salt flats, the volcano and rocky beaches - to keep the island from being soulless.
We'd like a mountain with a snowy peak, but you can't have everything. You don't necessarily want to hang about admiring the foliage though, especially if you're playing on hardcore mode. This is the closest-to-real setting that takes away all the HUD apart from the list of voice commands you've issued. There aren't any checkpoints either, other than one at the start of the mission, so if you decide you want to play it like that, good luck.
Yes, Dragon Rising uses a checkpoint system - no other saves are allowed. The good news is that you don't have to go it alone - the entire campaign can be played in a four-player co-op mode, so you and some hopelessly inept teammates can try to finish the game.
All games that have the capacity to should have co-op modes, and we're delighted that Dragon Rising has one. There are two other multiplayer options. The first, Annihilation, is a straight deathmatch, but the other mode is definitely the most intriguing. Infiltration involves one team of up to 10 special forces troops attempting to accomplish an objective guarded by 22 defenders. We're positively salivating at the prospect of getting involved with a large game of this online.
A potential Fight Club , anyone? And that's a suitably positive note to end on. Most mission, map or level editors are hellish things for us laymen. We're happy to look wide-eyed at them before refusing to ever touch one again in fear. Let those clever mod people handle that sort of thing. But Codies say Dragon Rising's is all about ease of use. It might be presented in the usual way, but -unless you get involved with the LUA scripting language - it's just a case of simply dragging and dropping all the units you want onto the map.
Obviously things get more complicated when you delve into the designer's inner workings, but if you just want to test a basic scenario, or see what would happen if you had overloaded the map with units, it's a cinch. Sadly, there aren't any of ArmA 2's animal units, so you can't watch the battles unfold while running about as a sheep. Browse games Game Portals.
