Hello.

I am new to Operation Flashpoint. I saw your mod a year ago, and thought: wow that looks good!
'You tube' helped a lot.
I didn't bring myself to buy the game at the time, until recently when I purchased Operation Flashpoint Game of the year edition. I promptly downloaded your mod and installed the necessary patches, 1.96. At first I had problems installing the mod, the shortcut wasn't launching the game. And the read me files attached with the mod didn't have CLEAR installation instructions. That problem has since been fixed, after spending about an hour searching the forum for a solution. Eventually I got the mod running.

The amount of Single player missions and multiplayer missions were, well, DIRE to say the least. For the missions you rave on about, such as air fighting or massive open battles with Eldar or Necrons or Tau don't seem to appear. The missions I did manage to play were: take the city back with Imperial Fists, Eldar vs Tau, Nogova virus, Nogova catachan level, armageddon 1 and 2 (the ones with the Orks). And thats about it. Where are all the other missions, i.e massive chaos vs space marine battles or missions with drop pods or large scale battles?

Am I doing something wrong?

Please help me, I am very enthusiastic to play this mod and all I can do is play about 5-7 missions.

Help would be much appreciated.

Yeah, you are right, definitely not enough missions to have a sport with.
There are not many missions around, yet. However, there is a lot of missions and a nice campaing fot the new island Idonus coming soon.
The problem is that we are just a handful individuals and most of out time is divided between addon and island making nad we keep neglecting missions....
So I believe Im not the only one who would really appreciate more missions coming out from our fans and forum dwellers. If you have a decent mission, please post it away and share the fun, dont be afraid to upload whatever you´ve made with the mod.

Hello! Yes, the mod is very good. I'm sure if you need any help making missions help will be available. You said you wanted large battles with drop pods, chaos vs space marines etc - How large a battle, objectives, length of battle/mission would you like?
Knowledge is Power.
Power is Dominance.
Dominance on the battlefield is Victory.

Thanks for all the replies, that's cleared up a lot of questions.

Erm, I only said said drop pod missions because I saw a video on Youtube of loads of drop pods coming down and causing the Orks living hell.
But if you want requests I suppose a large Taros or Cadia or Siege of Vraks would be really nice.

what is this "Siege of Vraks" ? ^o)

found it..
update:
= The Siege of Vraks =

this was talked about with some of the team members...

but there are some things that have to be dealt with.. and some things to work out..

Such as how to do this type of mission/campaign.. the story line states lots of units per engagements.. and depending on your pc..

will dictate as to how many units on the battle field..

and some of the battles..... which i have tried some months back.. would take just under 15 secs..... maybe 21 secs do to... and that would be just right down boring..

:P

this is not saying some thing like this, or even this Campaign could not be done, just at the moment...

my plate is full and so is every ones else on the team...
