Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising

Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising is a tactical shooter about a local conflict over the resources of an island. The player commands a small detachment of marines and performs missions in open areas. Planning is more important than speed here: route, cover and support determine whether the group will reach the goal. Control includes giving orders to the squad, operating equipment, and calling for fire. Missions can progress differently depending on whether the unit remains undetected. The design is strict, and the sound of the battle conveys volume. Some of the systems require getting used to, but the tactical possibilities are wide. Orders to the squad are carried out quickly, but require an understanding of the terrain to ensure the group does not come under fire. Technology is not always available, but it allows you to quickly change the situation on the field. Weather and time of day affect visibility, so the route is built taking into account the conditions. The complexity is high, but a successful operation feels deserved. The squad can be equipped with different weapons, and those found on the battlefield replenish the supply. Air and artillery support is available in selected missions. Some missions require reconnaissance before the attack, otherwise the losses will be large. Difficulty settings affect the accuracy and durability of opponents. In addition to combat, there is squad management, on which the outcome of the operation depends. Equipment is available in individual missions. The difficulty is high, so preparation is important. Weather affects visibility. In addition to infantry, there is equipment and air support. The squad acts according to orders, but can be divided into groups. Anyone who likes military shooters with calculations will find this game suitable.
