No lie.

I'm playing on the medium mode; I think I'm at the last level (the one where they helivac you to the south base for the 'last stand'). So far it's the only mission that's really annoyed me. I think the marksman weapons are overpowered and my squadmates are nigh useless, but that's just like every war game I have ever played ever.

Edit: Fun tip. If you know a checkpoint is coming up, and you're playing on normal mode, just murder all of your non-medic teammates. You can then take their ammo/weapons and they'll respawn once you hit the checkpoint. This is how I've resolved my constantly-out-of-ammo problem.
And that seals the game in my mind as poorly designed and tested. Then don't play it on retardo newbie difficulty. Nothing but the lowest difficulty level allows this to happen. |

Yes, if you play on one of the other two modes, then you can just murder people on your own side for ammo instead of your actual fireteam. Done that one too.
I play the game like some kind of homicidal sniper Rambo with a fetish for air strikes.

But at least your team mates don't respawn at every checkpoint. |

Only the medic actually matters, anyway. The rest just exist so the AI can get some target practice in.

For those sorta interested in the multiplayer version of this by the original Flashpoint devs, Arma II is on sale on Steam this weekend at 50% off ($25). I wasn't too impressed with the Arma II demo, but YMMV.

So it's been a couple weeks and I still love this game. Yes there are bugs. The upright corpses n whatnot. Hopefully those'll be patched out. However, I think the core game and the game mechanics make for one fun tactical shooter.

playing on PC at the moment - while i'm enjoying campaign i'm really pissed at the fact that there are no servers. And the Aussie players are so few and far between that none of them are going to leave open a server. You can't play this game with 400 ping unfortunately.
