Description

Taking a small step into the future, Red River depicts a fictional conflict with contemporary geopolitical themes, which will unfold over three distinct acts in both single player and drop-in-drop-out co-operative play for up to four players online. Faced with new counter-insurgency combat and the returning threat of the Chinese PLA, players will feel the tension, brutality and carnage of modern conflict from the perspective of a marine fireteam on deployment in a hostile country, thousands of miles from home.

Building extensively on the successes of Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising, Red River brings wide-ranging advancements including a deeper narrative-led campaign, streamlined inventory and control system, a refined enemy and squad AI system, player class roles including customisable XP upgrades and loadout choice, close-quarters combat, new air support options and comprehensive tutorials.

4 stars "It's as close to war as you can get...in videogame form"

OFP: Red River is almost not a game as much as it is a military simulator. As a squad leader, you need to order your squad around using an easy-to-use command wheel if you (and the rest of you allies) are to survive the harsh battlefields of Tajikistan.

Unlike Call of Duty or Battlefield, making a head-on cavalry charge to your enemies is a big no no as you can die in two hits. You wanna survive- Then you need to imitate the tactics the soldiers use in movies like Black Hawk Down and the Hurt Locker; you need to take cover and suppress their position, even if it means wasting ammo that won't hit them…because they wont' hit you either (hopefully).

My only major gripe with Red River is that the AI can occasionally be dumb but compensates with the superior marksmanship of your squadmates (these guys can make more kills than me).

You want a game that immerses you in a real-life battlefield- Well, get Operation Flashpoint: Red River.

Review by JP on 25th August, 2011
5 stars "Very realistic and challenging. A great game."

This game is fantastic and it's great to see such a high quality game that doesn't follow the COD format.
A very challenging game that will keep you coming back for more.

3 stars "Flashpoint long cinematics"

Flashpoint: Red River
Allright gameplay ,nice graphics however Long un-skippable Cinematics that make the game feel like such a drag , quite difficult at times , great use of tactical commands . Overall worth price paid

Review by Patrick on 4th November, 2011
4 stars "like ghost recon"

lovin it, it's like ghost recon in the way you have a squad of 4 people who you can give orders to and you're easily killed.

the differences are that you can heal yourself or be healed at any time. healing takes two stages – stop the bleeding then recover. Also if you die (or a teammate dies) you can reload a checkpoint rather than start the whole thing again.

graphics are ok but don't make a game.
