Arma: Cold War Assault Remastered to odświeżona wersja legendarnego Operation Flashpoint: Cold War Crisis – gry, od której właściwie zaczęła się droga prowadząca do współczesnej serii Arma. Akcja przenosi nas w realia zimnej wojny na ogromne wyspy Everon i Nogova. Zamiast typowego FPS-a dostajemy wojskową symulację, w której jeden pocisk może zakończyć misję, a odpowiednie pozycjonowanie i planowanie są ważniejsze od refleksu. Kampania nadal robi świetne wrażenie. Walczymy jako zwykły żołnierz, dowodzimy oddziałami, prowadzimy pojazdy i uczestniczymy w dużych operacjach wojskowych. Do tego dochodzi ogromna swoboda oraz edytor misji, który już ponad dwie dekady temu dawał niesamowite możliwości. Remaster modernizuje grę pod współczesny sprzęt i 64-bitowe systemy, ale nie próbuje zamienić klasyka w nowoczesną Armę. Grafika, animacje, AI i sterowanie nadal są mocno oldschoolowe i wymagają przyzwyczajenia. To jednak część uroku tej produkcji. Cold War Assault jest toporny, bezlitosny i momentami absurdalny, ale jednocześnie oferuje poziom swobody, którego wiele współczesnych strzelanek może mu pozazdrościć. Kawał historii wojskowych symulatorów i obowiązkowa pozycja dla fana serii Arma. Zdecydowanie polecam.

I first played this game back in like, 2004 or 2005 iirc. (That time, it was Operation Flashpoint: Cold War Crisis)I barely spoke English, and being just a little kid, had little but no knowledge of how games work. So imagine how frustrated I would've been when I first encountered this. Very confusing controls, insane difficulty, semi-realistic system made it very very hard to even clear a single mission. But after years, I managed to clear the campaign, spent a bunch of fun times in mission editor, even learned how to install mods, and my English ability had greatly gotten better. (And this, Quake 3, CS 1.5 was like my only experience in FPS. So I heavily got culture-shocked when I first played Medal of Honor and Call of Duty haha XD) Now after 2 decades, I am playing this game; graphics are mediocre, controls are still wonky, and there are tons of more exciting games in the market. But this game, even after there are Arma 2, 3 and Reforger, this game... it really gives you something that makes you keep coming back.

Este juego me hizo tenerle terror a una guerra real. Operation Flashpoint: Cold War Crisis alias ARMA: Cold War Assault (como se conoce ahora por perder los derechos del nombre por Codemasters) es el padre de los MILSIM (simuladores militares) modernos como Squad, Hell Let Loose, Incursion, entre otros. Este juego ya experimentaba con esas mecánicas en 2001. Acá un soldado caído en combate se siente en las misiones, el sonido de las orugas de un tanque aproximándose logran ponerte tenso. vas a rogar que no te descubra un pelotón enemigo yendo hacia tu posición, el alivio de los refuerzos llegando al combate. Todas estas sensaciones son las que te trasmiten al jugar este título. El juego cuenta con una campaña principal, enfocada en la OTAN, misiones extras en solitario y dos expansiones. Resistance, donde manejaremos la resistencia contra los invasores y en la segunda expansión formaremos parte del ejército de la Unión Soviética. Vale recalcar que esta última expansión no se encuentra dentro del juego de Steam, debido a que Bohemia Interactive perdió la licencia. Pero afortunadamente se puede instalar muy fácilmente desde la sección GUIAS de Steam. Las campañas cuentan con misiones de infantería, en sigilo, en tanques, helicópteros y hasta de aviones. El modo multijugador no lo he probado, pero creo que cuenta con algunos jugadores si tenés la suerte de encontrar algún servidor activo en internet. Hace escasos meses lanzaron una remasterización donde añadieron compatibilidad con equipos modernos, soporte para altas resoluciones y arreglos menores, por lo tanto la experiencia de juego ahora es mucho mejor. Sin dudas que recomiendo este grandioso título, y ojalá que la industria vuelva a sacar campañas centradas en la simulación militar y no tanto multijugador.

The nostalgia is strong with this one. I poured hours of my life over this when it was called Operation Flashpoint. Going back to it now, it still holds up in way that the more modern Arma's don't quite capture. The controls are not that tricky to pick up, and if you can forgive the old graphics you're in for a lot of fun. Some of the later missions rank up the difficulty in annoying ways but it's ok, we love this game regardless for it. So much content to enjoy and a soundtrack that still compliments the gameplay. 10/10 classic old but gold game.

This game was a huge part of my childhood. For those who don't know, back then it was called "Operation Flashpoint: Cold War Crisis". I remember getting the CD for the first time, I was instantly hooked. The graphics looked like GTA 6 for me back then, it looked so realistic :D Huge respect to Bohemia for remastering it and open sourcing the engine, this genuinely should be an industry standard for classic/old games. Companies still sell their old games, they never update them (broken or not), most of them have critical vulnerabilities in them, some games don't even launch without community mods. Let the community do their thing. If I remember correctly, it had wonky controls, it took you some time to get used to them. It was difficult sure but made it fun, the soundtrack is very enjoyable. If you play it now, the AI is 100% ass (good ole Arma) but what made the game unique at the time was the non-linear approach to the missions/campaign. No matter how many times you played the game, it was up to you how you approached it, it made the game very replayable. Mission editor was where the real fun was honestly. Creating your own scenarios, spawning tens and hundreds of units so you can play as a pilot and destroy them - creating stealth CIA black ops missions. Peak gaming. Even in Arma 3, most of my game hours are in the mission editor. The game often gets on sale, definitely worth it. 11/10 CLASSIC

Игра очень захватывающая! Несмотря на то что она уже довольно старенькая, при этом присутствует реализм реальных боевых действий, рекомендую к покупке!
