AT LAST!! The game that got me into the genre has a sequel. It had better be good, the adaptability of the first with the gameplay of JO, CAN'T WAIT!

Technically speaking this is the sequel to Operation Flashpoint:

Armed Assault

And that is getting a sequel this year as well:

Armed Assault 2

But Bohemia Interactive (the developer of OFP) had a falling out with Codemasters (the publisher), and as CM own the right to the name, BI couldn't use it for their game.

Hi everyone,

Got some good news for you all.

Just wanted to confirm that as is the case with almost all of our major releases, OFP: DR is planned to have a demo released prior to launch for all platforms.

I don't have any further details at the moment regarding dates and content, but I will keep on updating this thread as and when new info becomes available.
