Description: Operation Flashpoint offers the ultimate realistic war experience, which draws the player into a deeply believable military environment. The player controls and commands not just soldiers and squads of all levels, but also land, sea and air vehicles - both military and civilian - from cars, to APCs, to tanks and even military helicopters.

The scenario is modern warfare: It is 1985 in the midst of the Cold War, and Gorbachev has been elected to power bringing with him policies of glasnost and perestroika. However, resistance Soviet groups are opposed to the new wave and are refusing to serve the new regime in Moscow. One group has taken control of an island community, and is using it as an armed stronghold for the old order. Operation Flashpoint opens with the player joining the neighbouring US force against the Soviets. It is a game of complete freedom with military crisis situations to handle on your own initiative. Once past the mission briefing stage, it's the player's decision how the overall mission or campaign is tackled.

This variety also allows players to dip in and out of all kinds of action gameplay from commanding a squad, to driving tanks, troop carriers, piloting a helicopter to taking on the role of a sniper.

Again, incredible detail unfolds in each role: A NATO sniper makes use of the US-standard M21 sniper rifle with its correct optical markings. However, if they relieve an immobilised Soviet sniper of his rifle, they will be faced with Soviet-standard optical markings through the sights – and they do work differently…
