Make me wonder whether this is not just that little bit too realistic to be fun.

They can always balance it if you die too easy. I really like the look of this one....

too realistic is bad. my friend was telling me he was driving for like 10mins in arma2 towards a battle then got shot after 10sec and didnt even see where from lol

This is what PRM was imo. PRM was amazing until they made it TOO realistic in the latest versions. Having to take cover, think about moving, working as a team.. knowing you can die in one bullet is what put PRM leagues ahead of the jumping around, nade spamming, dolphin diving spray and pray fest that BF2 is in most games.

This level of realism is way more fun, not to mention the fact that all the little kiddies who want to bunnyhop their ass off everywhere will die instantly just like in the first operation flashpoint game. I see nothing bad about this in any way and can't wait to play it.

Besides, you don't insta die all the time in Op Fp 2, there's plenty of videos of people being hit and living, plus I love they kept the damage zones from the first one.. being shot in the leg makes you run slower etc.
