::: Dragon Hardcore :::
Sion Lenton, OFP:DR's exec producer has released details of the HardCore mode:
We have 3 levels of gameplay; Assisted, Normal and Hardcore. I like to think of Hardcore as turning the game up to 11, we’ve had to add the number 11 as a result of the feedback from you guys on our initial hardcore screenshots released back in May.
You lot are a bunch of masochists but, you’ve got it; the hardcore mode in Operation Flashpoint will contain no HUD/UI elements at all other than radio chatter subtitles. That’s right, no crosshair, no compass, no gun or ammo displays…Nothing…
There will be no objective markers, no bleed meter, no direction of fire indicator, no enemy location highlights and no damage indicators. Nothing!
To show you what we mean, here's an example for you all taken with the new hardcore settings.
All navigation will have to be done via the map; calling up your QCR (quick command radial) will show you your fireteam status only while the button is held, and pressing weapons select will bring up the weapon/ammo selection menu, again only visible whilst the button is pressed. In addition there are no checkpoints, no soft saves and no hard saves, there’s only one word for it, HARDCORE!!!
I hope that satisfies your ravenous appetite for pain and misery ive gotta say after playing it for the last few days im already loving it!
Time to sign off now, games don’t make themselves.
Thanks again for all your support, there’s been some fascinating discussions on the forum over the last few weeks and im pleased my feedback on the E3 demo allayed some of your concerns
So, until the next time, I’m look forward to popping a cap in your head online, nothing to serious, but enough to make you bleed, badly.
Sion

Ghost 25 Mar 10 I'm still not elite enough to join your boys yet knight. Seems my time in France is raising some security concerns with the CF, mainly they won't be able to physically abuse me at BMQ LOL.
It's pretty sweet when it works, you have to account for bullet drop off and you can destroy pretty much everything and best of all the vehicle controls are excellent.
It also has a very rich color palette unlike MW2 so you can conceal yourself somewhat.
knight 02 Nov 09 Lol Ghost... where do you live Surrey? Second of all the Canadian army can suck more than foreign armies because your stuck in the prairies with nothing to do and conducting training in -40 in the winter time. Sucks BALLS
knight 10 Oct 09 OFP2 is out and according to many sites it gets an average score of 80 out of 100. But gamers like you say no. Apparently it suffers from "consolitis" like all PC games these days.
Ghost 29 Jun 09 France kicked ass in the southern part. The people were very friendly and talkative, the weather was amazing and the screnry was incredible.
It's not like Canada where you have to arm yourself and travel in packs so you don't get attacked.
Ghost 05 Jun 09 They starve and beat you plus they took away all my kit and refused to give me new stuff then told me if I didn't shave I can't eat.
I tried to reapply with the Canadian Forces the day after I got back and they told me they would never hire me because they didn't like the look of my face.
I also got jumped by 6 guys the same night I got back to Canada so its been one hell of a week.
Akira_AU 05 Jun 09 Ghost - fill us in on the details.
