While I think Brothers In Arms has much more realism in many areas, no game can touch Operation Flashpoint for the feeling of being there. I do not feel that it is idle boasting, for I will make no claim of that sort for any other game! In flight simulators, I am an average player, where I wish I were one of the better ones.
I consider myself the third best Operation Flashpoint player I have ever met online, going by kills and also kills to death. With the aiming as it is in the unmodified game, the game was just too easy.
