(offtopic) to all getting ofdr in uk

[King Jareth]

I've put in a fair few hours this weekend (hardcore mode obviously) and am loving it, even last nights swearfest with Sleep trying, and failing repeatedly*, to complete mission 3 on co-op.
Best thing you can do IMO is put a "Ghost Recon" (not graw...it doesn't deserve capitols) sticker over the "operation Flashpoint" logo on the box and it'll make much more sense.

Getting a game of MP is a serious PITA for me right now but I've enjoyed what I've played, the main problem is lag giving a serious host advantage right now.
Driving the M1 about on the second map was just too much fun, cant wait till I can actually get some practice in on the helis.

*-and mostly not by any fault of our own I must add.

i agree with you mate mission 3 can be a challange im only going through the missions on normal at the moment and its taxing me so cant wait till i redo it on hardcore

not had much experiance with the mutiplayer much yet i had a quick game with house and his friend the other day and it seemed to run smooth but that was it so i cant really comment on the lag or anything yet

damn where did you get the M1 from on the second mission ?? you are talking about the saber insertion where you have to take out the sunburn missile site ?? i loved that mission all the sneaking past the look out posts and then when you blow the sunburn all hell breaks loose i lost count of how many times i got caught out by there attack helo and got chewed to pieces lol

and to everyone posting about all the bugs etc remember il2 has many probs and bugs at the minute but i dont see ppl ripping that to hell so why dont we just wait for the update just like we are for il2 and things will be fine

either way i got my two fav game on me xbox now so im more than a happy bunny il2 and fpdr hoohar!!!

I manage to do it on Hardcore solo but TBH I kinda hid and let the AI do it, as long as you keep the APC's alive its not that tricky but that in itself is basically luck.

Not the second mission the second Mp map, the one with the village. If you spawn as US there are some buggies, APCs and 2 M1's at the main spawn.
Also a crate in the village has an M82 in it

To be fair to Daz here Seraph, the level of rippage on the OFDR forums makes the stuff on here look like open armed praise. You think Codemasters just murdered your family for buying the game the way its all going off on there.
