Brutesquad: Operation Flashpoint!
I've been getting the coop bug lately, and was thinking of good games. Whilst cleaning through my cd collection throwing out all the crap games I acquired over the years, I came across Operation Flashpoint. I remembered when patched, there was some SERIOUS coop goodness in that game. So, I figured I would see who else might be interested in getting a small group together for a session of Operation Flashpoint madness and mayhem?
Just post below if you are interested and we'll start working out a time!

Hmmm....it's been a good long time since I've played coop OF. But those were good times. If you get others, and a time works out, I would like to join in.
And in banks across the world
Christians, Moslems, Hindus, Jews
And every other race, creed, colour, tint or hue
Get down on their knees and pray
The raccoon and the groundhog neatly
Make up bags of change
But the monkey in the corner
Well he's slowly drifting out of range

I've played more my share of OFP with my friends. Since we're all (or have been) militarily involved our scenarios tended towards 2 hours careful walking in the woods avoiding enemy contact... perhaps not everyones cup of tea. Especially if you got unlucky and caught a bullet in the first 20 minutes.

There have been some recent patches - and one that I think cranks up the textures.
Do make sure you have the most curent patches though - because one of the patch releases can potentially nuke your hard drive while playing a MP game.
You probably can't download it anymore, but if you have it on your PC...skip it. : )

Maybe next year, maybe no go

My friends and I are very big into coop, we played through this set of coop missions made for coop alone. It was a sort of helicopter insertion and extraction mission that was long and difficult.
But there's nothing like flying in on a blackhawk with your cobra flying buddy ahead of you blows away any hard targets like shilkas and tanks. Then flying low to drop a sniper off on a nearby hill, then flying in just outside of town, storming said town, and running off with the goods while your boys light up any incoming reinforcements.

Sounds as though we have enough to start the planning.
First things first: I need a couple of hosting volunteers. Need a good connection in the continental US. I don't recall if dedicated hosting is possible, but that would be preferrable if we can get it.
Second: Voice coms. We will get a Teamspeak 2 server set up for the coop sessions. Download it, get it working and for the love of all that is holy please make sure you set it to 'push to talk' so I don't have to listen to Darth Vader breathing the entire time we're playing
Third: Files. I will get a list of the patch version, plus any files needed for downloading (extra coop missions for example).
I'll post a suggested day/time for next week, and assuming we can get enough people to make a go of it that night (including a server host), then we'll plan on it!

Right now, the latest released version is 1.96.
AFAIK, GOTY and Resistance will work as long as they're patched to 1.96.
