Operation Flashpoint offers the ultimate realistic war experience, which draws the player into a deeply believable military environment. For the first time in an action game, 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. Operation Flashpoint is a groundbreaking title, giving players the chance to participate in a Cold War conflict just the way they want to. It's a game that has set new standards of immersive realism.
