    So I buy it on sale on steam.
    Supposed to be "the shit" and has a great review score, etc.

    Load the game.

    All items highlighted and glow
    Health recharges, impossible to die pretty much
    Pointless achievements (you get one for changing the color of your clothes)
    Told where to go with giant glowing arrows
    Told where to stand with giant glowing circles
    Enemies all slowly advance toward you, don't take cover.
    Non-interactive environments

    Did people suddenly forget how to play games?
    Do I really need to be spoon fed every single action?

    It's like they took Knights of the old republic, put training wheels on it
    and called it mass effect 2.

    Even past that level, it's still minimally interactive
    and an on-rails gameplay.

    HURRY TO THE DOOR

    Repeat for the next few hours.

    YOU HAVE TO

    I hate that they stripped out the RPG aspects of it to "appeal" to the shooter crowd more.

    Beats the "ultra-realistic" combat of Dragon Rising

    Seriously, the first Flashpoint was awesome, but this one? everything is fucking BROWN, my left eye almost dies of all the squinting I've to do to see the chinese shooting at me.


    Most achievements are pointless, they force-feed gamers that crap because it's incredibly easy to make those. Point in case, even iphone and flash games have achievements now.

    What happened with bonus levels? and truly unlockable content, not just shitty eye candy

    I guess I'd make a better soldier than you then! :p

    I found it not all that difficult.

    I have, this new flashpoint makes GoW look bright and colorful

    I can spot a guy walking in a field 2 miles away IRL, but here? I see a white thing at the distance, which doesn't happens with troops wearing camo

    What I found funny is everyone is wearing fitness clothing. The first stage is
    like a massacre in a gym.
