There's still going to be a OFP2. Armed Assault is just an engine upgrade.

Armed Assault, the upcoming first-person combat game previously known as Operation Flashpoint 2. The game should be finished in Q4/2005. Here's some info:

Pls grab sum facts before posting this on main news.....
Armed Assault (www.armedassault.com) is a standalone game made by BIS. Basically its Flashpoint Resistance with enhanced graphics and one new island.

IT IS NOT Flashpoint 2 related in any way besides that BIS is making both of them.
Flashpoint 2 will probably not even be the name of erhh flashpoint 2 due to the fact that Codemasters owns that name and is not going to be the publisher.

I have received wrong information from our partner - Tiscali Games (Czech gaming website) http://www.ggmania.com/?smsid=18748 I thought they verified the information since they have good relations with Czech developers.... Sorry guys...

This is good news, as I was really disappointed with the implication that they were moving OFP2 into a modern setting. A large part of the first game's charm for me was the Cold War setting, as that's when I joined and served in the military. I found it strangely nostaglic, playing a game where the weapons and equipment were all stuff I trained with and learned to fight against. I hope they've decided to keep OFP2 in that time setting.

Cross Fire - Cross Fire is an online military first-person shooter for the PC, developed by SmileGate and Neowiz, and co-published by G4BOX and Wicked Interactive. Players assume the role of either a Black List or Global Risk mercenary, and then join an online team that must work together to complete objective-based scenarios. Cross Fire's flagship feature is its "Ghost Mode", which puts one team in possession of top-secret cloaking technology, rendering them invisible to the opposing team. This team of "ghosts" is armed only with knives, and must stealthily track and hunt the enemy team. This mode is exclusive to Cross Fire and no other mode exists quite like it in any other first-person shooter. (653 hits)
