Operation Flashpoint: Red River - meet Knox
Looks a heck of a lot like Battlefield Desert Combat mod. I wonder if its the same development crew making this as the other Operation Flashpoint - if it is it means they will release the game, get their money, then abandon all updates claiming its a "finished" piece of software - even with all the glitches and bugs.

Why can't developers clue in that you should be able to carry ANY load out you may want with any class. If a sniper class wants to carry an AT4 they should be able to, or an engineer carry a sniper weapon, etc. Granted they should have greatly reduced accuracy so that an assault or engineer has poor sniper capabilities, and anyone other than the assault carrying assault rifles just don't get the tight spread pattern. Its not that ahrd to think it through, and would probably be easy to implement. But that would require actually doing something cool in the game other than think of ways to cheat us out of money then move on to their next title.
I'll take an extremely close look at any Sion Lenton game before purchasing it - after putting out a bad patch for OPF1 he claimed it was a "finished" game and dumped it.
