If you start a mission in the cover of darkness you will soon find yourself exposed at dawn. The buildings in the game are largely unimpressive and dull, while the nature is very impressive.Īs the day passes the light conditions change. And it does look good, personally I would have liked to have seen some better animations of the enemies, but as you mostly just see them through a sniper scope it's nothing that ruins your experience. While the graphics may not live up to some of the competitors Dragon Rising delivers a much larger playing area. One interesting aspect is how sound travels from a distance, blow something up on the horizon and it will take a short moment for the sound to travel to your position. Carbines, sniper rifles, rocket launchers, grenades, pistols, mounted guns, and much more. Naturally there are plenty of weapons to choose from. The weapons both feel and sound authentic, and a far cry from Hollywood. This means that reloading, changing weapons, can take its sweet little time. I seldom feel that it restricts me from doing anything, and while I would have liked to have been able to get up the menu for my equipment faster, we are talking about a war simulation. The controls in Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising are almost always perfect. If you do a sloppy job you run the risk of having to pay a high price later on, and this is especially true for the more fixed set pieces. If you are on a mission to save some fellow soldiers your best bet is to eliminate all enemies before rushing in to save them.
Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising is a demanding game that requires attention and precise action from the player or else you will end up dead. Or perhaps you can call for an artillery strike to handle the business. Trading bullets with the enemy from behind cover will get you nowhere and you will have to call upon your friends to lay down suppressing fire, while you flank the enemy or vice versa. The sound of bullets flying by, and hitting the dirt will cause soil or splinters to impair your vision. It's a good thing the world is abundant with cover in shape of rocks, hills, birches, fences, houses, vehicles, sand bags to hide behind when the bullets start coming your way.ĭuring the fire fights its absolute chaos. He is dressed in a uniform and has countless weapons and projectiles at his disposal. There is of course an enemy out there as well. The orders you issue open up more tactical options and the system is really rather deep. You can also give orders to your fellow soldiers on this map, you can also do this on the ground by holding in the right should button and issuing orders. There is also a overview map that you can use to scout the terrain. How you make it there is entirely up to you. The compass also marks position vital to your objective with a flag. To aid navigation there is a compass that gives you directions and also highlights enemy positions with red triangles. After a rather lengthy intermission for loading you are dropped on to the battlefield and get your instructions through the radio. This is where Russia calls upon America to keep China busy on Skira, while the Russian fortify their position in their own territory.Įvery mission starts with a debriefing where you are given an overview of the mission area and your objectives.

The hostilities have gotten to a point where China are preparing a full scale assault on the Russian mainland. The island Skira is rich with natural resources with China and Russia contesting who it actually belongs to.
The root of all evil - money - is once again the cause of all the problems. As a commander of a small group of marines your duty is to aid other troops on the offensive, sabotage enemy installations, carry out rescue missions and quite simply do your part in a larger war effort. It is still all about warfare out on the open plains in constant danger. The first time I booted up Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising those fears wear quickly proven wrong.
