I've just bought it, played one mission and it is looking to be brilliant. I've got it configured at 1024*768*32bit colour and its running smooth. It didnt in the demo so it must be greatly improved. I run a P111 600 with Tnt2 and 384Mb so you can compare.Now I think I'll get back to it

I hope OpFp supports multiple installs, I'm thinking I'll need 3!

btw, some of those wallpapers at Invasion1944 are incredible....

Its bloody hard though! My squad has been wiped out and I'm stuck in a forest. Turns out Nato is evacuating the Island in oh, 20 mins or so. I've been trying to make my way back to the evacuation beach (quite a distance) but the place is swarming with the enemy. BTW, i've only had one confirmed kill so far, most of the time you just let loose in the direction the rest of your team is firing, and drop to the ground when you see a comrade drop. Confusing but brilliant. Just like the real thing! (the confusing part)

BTW Werner, I'm doing a few wallpapers for the Invasion1944 mod, they are going to be hand drawn (well, with my graphics tablet) so they might take a while

Well, I managed to complete that mission, nearly turned my hair white in the process, its that gripping The scripted campaign in this game is excellent, really immersive. The game is the best I've played in years,there has never been a game like it, it really is the ultimate infantry simulator. No gung ho action in this; if you want to go one on one with an enemy troop, you better make sure you've manoveured so that the atack is to your advantage. With Il-2 coming soon, we are in for a purple patch in military gaming.

Awesome Burkey! This one with all the mods looks like it could be all the FPS you'll need for a while.

Have you tried online at all? I've read that the net code is basically junk and that its almost unplayable online.

Yeah, I heard that I haven't tried, in fact I dont even think its available yet; I read they are waiting for the US release. I have read reviews however that talk about LAN play, with 100s of units working OK, so I'm not sure. I hope they'll get it right because multiplayer OP Flashpoint would blow your mind.

the answer is simple..:)
they're working on the dedicated server, which will be included in us release..
with that option on the net u can play with 100-150 ppl while on LAN there can join up to 1000.. i just hope they make nice network code even if the max players is 50:)
and of course with those mods comin in the game won't die so quick:))
