I was a massive fan of OFP1 with over 30 missions and an overall great game… Codemasters have made a game that can be compared to a Transformer toy when we were kids… its a hell of a lot of fun for a couple of hours but then you get bored playing with it.. OFP 1 was never like that… OFP2 i have finished 3 times now once on my own in 8 hours then twice in co-op mode (which is more fun but a hell of a lot faster) and you go through the 11 missions like a hot knife through butter… and now… im bored… There are no dedicated servers so you play with 500+ ping online even with a 4mb unshaped line… I will never buy another codemasters game ever!!! they ruined OFP

You know, I think I will buy this on the PC for the multiplayer, not only because it features a CO-OP campaign but I’m sure it will also have DEDICATED SERVER SUPPORT!! Ain’t that right Activision? :angry:

Awesome game – should really be in it’s own genre (possibly tantric FPS) – not really a FPS in the modern terms – takes a bit of getting into – and as mentioned there is no instant gratification

The LAG in Vs and COOP can really bring out the worse bugs in this game.

4 people on 4mb unshaped lines each, still lags.

8 player MP is almost a no go zone.

Only the host can actually drive stuff, as the lag makes even 100 ton tanks skid around as if on ice.

System link this game is awesome coop fun, and even with teh bugs and lag the game works well over live with 4 players, but you can spot teh lag/bugs that is for sure.
