    Thats right , they decided to leave out the mission editor ( placing units , weapons , vehicles on the map and creating custom missions )

    This is complete bullshit and if you want to help out there is only a few things you can do

    And that is to either go submit your feedback on their forums

    Seeing as Operation Flashpoint is as much of a Flashpoint game as FEAR: FILES was a FEAR game I could give a shit less. The actual game you're looking for is Armed Assault 2.

    that still is no reason to think that this is a good thing , i will be getting arma 2 the second it comes out , but it would be nice if the console community could have an editor

    They probably only ever had the editor running on PC like a typical map editor.  Not a big surprise to me, but still disappointing.  I actually made some custom missions in Op Flashpoint 1, so I know how not so amazing it was.  I used to love setting up HIND encounters (inspired by Metal Gear Solid), but otherwise it wasn't that great.

    I think OpFlash2 will be enough like Operation Flashpoint 1, of course the ArmA guys made the first one, but ArmA was kind of a mess compared to Op Flashpoint 1.  I hope ArmA2 gets a good port to 360/PS3 as well (it's basically annouced, but how good it turns out is in question).

    @nick69:
    Map editing in most PC games is way harder though.  You wouldn't want to even think of UE3 editing if you can't handle Far Cry 2's nice interface.

    ArmA just didn't play nearly as well as Flashpoint.  The E3 demo they had of OF2 on gametrailers looked good to me.  I'm excited to play it regardless of who develops it.

    Yeah, if you're looking for an unoptimized, unfinished buggy piece of crap. Reminds me of Empire: Total War, was released wayy too early.

    Tell that to the Farcry: Instincts Predator community. Some of the best custom maps I've ever played were on that game.
