Operation Flashpoint devs talk Call of Duty

"The very nature of [Modern Warfare 2], and I mean this in the nicest possible way, is a hyped event. It's kind of like the Michael Bay of videogames. Its budget, its sales, all these kind of things - it is a huge game." Lenton said, before comparing both titles. "I really see Modern Warfare 2 as Hollywood and we're the Cannes, the arty documentary - dare I say the reportage-style thing."

You'd feel that way too if you play both games.
COD is more glorified in that sense.. while i was b!tching through flashpoint for the most part.
So.. would u rather watch a documentary or a hollywood blockbuster

Syronicus6045d ago

Sorry, but Flashpoint is ok but it is slow at times and a bit too far leaning on the realistic side for me. I love twitch shooters and Flashpoint is not that.

Winter47th6045d ago

Can't believe I fell for those Flashpoint bullshots when they first came out.

DARK WITNESS6045d ago

ya, I might still be playing it now if it actually looked anything like that picture.

Pennywise6044d ago

Winter, don't worry a lot of people did.

I've been saying this from the beginning. Do not expect too much out of Codemasters. I know they make a couple cool race games, but the majority of their titles are generic, mediocre games.

Sarcasm6044d ago

I'll take the Michael Bay version too.

I'm sorry, but running miles and miles just isn't my idea of fun.

evrfighter6044d ago

If you think Operation Flashpoint 2 had potential. You really need to try out Arma 2

sikbeta6044d ago

OF is a good game, maybe a little annoying if you are a COD fan, but the worst is the f*cking PS3 port

Arma 2 > OF: DR

But ya, COD MW2 is way overblown.

Most people who are hyping it up have never played BF games or the previous COD games.

I hate what they are adding. Sticky grenades? Throwing knives? Seriously? Dual Deagles?

They are adding stuff for the mainstream 13 year old gamer who is amazed by stuff like this.

They are probably going to make the game way more accessible than it is. ugh.

Just dumb down all the strategy

Blaze9296044d ago

Operation Flashpoint Dragon Rising is a terrible game though....

agentace6044d ago

You mean your terrible at Operation Flashpoint Dragon Rising

TheProfessional6044d ago (Edited 6044d ago )

Flashpoint Devs are right 100%.

COD4's arcadey run and gun with no gore (except one scripted sequence), extremely linear level design and canned death animations vs. Dragon Rising's realisitc, loud tactical shootouts with gore, ragdoll, and an open world.

If MW is a Michael Bay movie then Dragon Rising is a Michael Mann film (Pre-Miami Vice).

Gun_Senshi6044d ago

The "bullshots" are PC version graphics. get a real gaming platform.

OF > COD. Realism VS retarded spray feast, I take Realism.

ARMA 2 is still the winnter from both MW2 and OF 2 though

matchgrade6044d ago

Actually, the bullshots are artistic renders. Don't lie.

MW3 shouldn’t leave Modern Warfare 2’s overlooked playlist behind

Modern Warfare 3 is set to be one of the biggest COD games yet features-wise, but it shouldn't leave out one of the best MW2 game modes in the rear view mirror.

Modern Warfare 2 Adds Pay-to-Win Items With Thermal Scope and Merlin the Dog, Here's How They Work

Some alleged Modern Warfare 2 pay-to-win elements were recently added, see what they are here and how they work.

PunksOnN4G1005d ago

The DOG is legit Broken if ur hiding in a room or grass he turns his head even if ur behind a closed door he turns his head and barks letting them know where u at thats PAY TO WIN!!!!!

LucasRuinedChildhood1005d ago

I hope all the assholes who buy these get stuck in lobbies with each other. I skipped new COD games for a long time and a short time with MW2 convinced me to go back to on a hiatus.

With the skill-based matchmaking (engagement-based would be more accurate), I imagine this will make the game even more miserable for most players when the matchmaking has decided it's time for a tough lobby.

I played the OG MW2 recently on the Series X and it's disheartening how much more fun it is. I don't even care about the balance issues anymore. lol

PunksOnN4G1005d ago

My friends dont play with me anymore i am former pro player and i even streamed on MLG for RX gaming the team i played for... My KD is always high 5-6kd my friends who i went to school with are not good wht so ever so with SBMM kicking in its always putting us in TOP TIER lobbys and they cant hang now they dont even tell me when they getting on LOL

ManMarmalade1004d ago

I recently started playing OG MW2 again and I'm having a blast. Feels like I'm in high school again.

fr0sty1005d ago (Edited 1005d ago )

Welcome to COD under MS. It's all downhill from here, they're going to be looking to make that $68B back as fast as possible, at any expense to the player.

StarkR3ality1005d ago

The deal hasn't even closed yet you pleb. CoD has been doing stuff like this since the loot boxes in WWII.

Nice try though pal.

TheColbertinator1004d ago

Activision has never needed Microsoft or anybody for that matter to act like greedy bastards

PunksOnN4G1004d ago

why did my 2nd comment about SBMM get downvited LOL?? Do we have people who Enjoy trash SBMM tbh make sense it caters to LOW KD players and u will never get better playing with the same trahs everyday LOL

andy851005d ago

Probably gonna see more of this BS once the deal is fully done..Gotta recoup that 70B.

Jin_Sakai1005d ago (Edited 1005d ago )

Look at Minecraft. The game hasn’t went anywhere since Microsoft bought them. No 4K, no 120fps, no graphics pack, and no Ray Tracing. Just some new biomes, mobs, and more skins as usual.

Same could be said about Rare. Who knows what will happen to Activision once they’re under Microsoft’s roof. We can all take a good guess though.

PunksOnN4G1005d ago

TBH they did update it by accident then they pulled the update down on xsx and xss i remeber the XSX version having ray tracing but the S did not. Then after people seen that it was updated it was removed that same day

peppeaccardo1005d ago

No way !!! Nobody wouild think they would monetize on items that weak asses will use to get advantage during multiplayer action !!! I would never think they would do that ... I mean is a free to play game after all ! /S
Wait once M$ will put their greasy hands all over Activizion and you will see what awaits the "lucky" ones who will play this slot machine of a game. Sooooo Lame !

jznrpg1005d ago

They way it works is you give them money and more money and more money.

anast1004d ago

It's a true phenomenon that people haven't figured this out yet.
