I decided to point out the best and worst elements in this game in a quick summary: The good: - This game could be really fun for a 4 Player Co-op. But I never tried that. - Bullet drops are accurate and satisfying. - Visuals still hold up okay, specially in later levels (I might be easy to please in this case). The mountains are neat. - Good length for the Single Player considering recent games in the genre. - The...

I played this game on a laptop on a combat outpost in afghanistan. I loved it at the time. Maybe because I didnt have anything else to do in my free time but play cards. If you are patient it can be very enjoyable. I give it a 7/10. Notice all of the bad reviews come from players with less than 2 hours of playtime. You cannot learn how to play this game in less than 2-3 hours imo. It probably takes longer than...

More of a get it to run on windows 10 review! - Find 'RedRiverLauncher' in the game folder. - 'Run as administrator'. - Don't use compatability settings on anything. - Install windows live thing when it asks. - Log in using xbox live or windows live account (when your in game). That was the process that worked for me at least.

A remnant of the Windows Live Era. The game requires you to use it to even save. Couldn't suggest this game to anyone.

This is a weird game. The previous game in the series (Dragon Rising) was an attempt to make a more mainstream, casual milsim and it bombed, so Codemasters decided to go even more mainstream. Any semblance of milsim has been thrown out the window, in favor of CoD-style design: linear paths of combat leading to scripted setpieces, bookended by cinematic cutscenes. Seemingly in an attempt to make Red River stand out...

Operation Flashpoint: Red River is when a coherent combat simulator makes a mockery of itself by turning into an arcade game. Dragon Rising was a proper simulator on a par with Arma. Tough, demanding, realistic… It had it all. Take all that away and you’re left with Red River. The game is ‘pretty’ enough – well, it doesn’t exactly blow you away, and it remains rather dull despite the setting (well, it is a desert,...

Operation Flashpoint: Red River is kind of like a mixture of ArmA, MOH and Ghost Recon. You command your fireteam (like GR) except in a more complicated way similar to ArmA (stance, dispersion, noise dicipline etc.) There are ArmA features like bullet drop, the importance of stance when aiming, military jargon that is relevant to the task and some adherence to military tactics. The AI (unlike ArmA) are actually...

Completely broken. Requires old dead DRM to launch the game and save progress. Even if you bother to install it, the game still doesn't run right on Win 10.

No longer launches without tweaking due to using a crappy, old DRM called Games for Windows Live. Instead of the publisher addressing the issue they just unlisted the game and said screw everyone who purchased it.
