Also unless they finally implemented dedicated servers the multiplayer is still laggy as fuck.

Wow, editing is trying way to hard to over-compensate for the slow ass pace of this game. Yeah, I agree with someone above, they need dedicated servers, because MP is just way too laggy. They also need an MP mode like Battlefield's conquest. How could you make a game like this, with all this hard work, then at the end, you just take a big fat shit on your multiplayer. It's a real shame. I loved the single player, but even the SP is buggy and laggy. I was hoping that this game would be good, but they should hire me to direct OF:3, because this company needs a new direction.

They should have released this for free, as an apology for such a half-baked release. That might have persuaded me to give OFPDR another spin.

I enjoyed the singleplayer campaign. As I don't own a PC powerfull enough to run ARMA2 this was my closest fix to a Milsim shooter. Sadly the online part was badly handled. I Had some fun matches but overall it was not worth it.
 
A shame, it had so much potential...

They committed to an engine that clearly wasn't working for an FPS game and the result is an almost empty world with a single player that's far too short and a multiplayer that is completely inept.
 
What's worse is that all of this "DLC" should have been in the full game at release.

Holy shit. What the fuck was that? So much editing that nobody knew what the hell was going on, and what the FUCK was up with that text? IT'S IMPOSSIBLE TO READ THAT FAST. I probably only got every other word. I wouldn't be surprised if they included real Dragons in this DLC, but I wouldn't know because apparently everyone at Codemasters can read at fucking lightspeed.

@Jiujitsuka: Just, agreed. I was hoping for an epic MilSim attempt, with online I could really get into, but as it is now I can't even gather enough friends together to complete the campaign on Hardcore CoOp (that shit's impossible on SP!) 
 
EDIT: And also, that was a far from fantastic remix of the original theme tune, which was actually awesome. And they should never have tried to time the cuts with that song, my god.

This game is too hard. Maybe if the AI didn't suck so bad it would be playable on single player.

Did you see how fast that text was flashing? Even to watch the trailer you need hardcore observational skills.

Poorly made trailer for a poorly made game. The graphics look atleast 5 years dated. I have never played it but it looks like crap and I heard it plays even worse. What a shame cause the original was pretty awesome.

I actually liked this game. It's pretty fun and it doesn't feel too technical at all. It's more like BF2 than ArmA. In fact, it's a LOT like BF2. Almost identical even. Just imagine BF2 with better graphics and no jets.

Please dont speak such blasphemy. This game does not deserve to be said in the same breathe as BF2.

as a fan of the other flashpoint games i followed this game, even though bohemia  was not invoved at all i  thought id try dragon rising and ended up taking it back losing money by doing so, i have arma 1 and 2 and love them but i feel codies messed up and i hope it doesnt put off other devs making (sim type) shooters for console in the future and only make dumbed down cod clones.
