The open-world tactical shooter grows up. Nothing beats being part of a team.

Lots of squad-based shooters have hammered that home despite the troublesome AI that defined these early attempts. But whether they’re completely AI-driven (Rainbow Six, Hidden & Dangerous, SWAT 3) or have the advantage of human players (Battlefield 1942, Counter-Strike), the ability to work with or command teams of specialized soldiers on a variety of missions adds a tactical depth that simple deathmatch lacks. Bohemian Rhapsody Being the great grand-dad of Czech-based Bohemia Interactive’s ARMA (Armed Assault) series, Operation Flashpoint is a first-person shooter with a heavy military bent. Much of the time you play as a foot soldier, but you also serve time as a tanker, black ops commando, helicopter and jet pilot via the perspectives of three other playable characters.

The game features a hard-to-grasp but ultimately thorough command and control structure that lets you order a squad of soldiers, a ‘sim portion’ which attempts to model weapon and vehicle physics (to varying degrees of success), and subtle things like fatigue, aiming difficulties while on the run, a realistic day-night cycle and even a genuine star map and lunar phasing.

While other such games have included a limited ability to drive vehicles around, Flashpoint goes one step further and makes it an integral part of your job.

Semantics aside, the main focus here is the singleplayer campaign containing a whopping 45 missions. Though you start the game as a lowly corporal, taking orders from your squad sergeant, you rapidly gain more responsibility and eventually gain control of multiple men and machines. The story allows for a good variety of missions, ranging from all-out assaults to stealthy behind the lines assignments, Blitzkrieg-esque tank rushes and air assaults.

Observing a Soviet compound as a Black Ops. Reality Bites All of this would be great if it weren’t for the extremely neurotic AI and grueling difficulty. Credit where it’s due, the artificial intelligence as a whole can pull some cool tricks, to the point where it’s eerily similar to later ARMA games – fire at a squad of enemy soldiers and they immediately hit the deck and scan the environment.
