Showcasing the new content and modes featured in the DLC, a new “Overwatch” gameplay video is now available from www.flashpointgame.com. In the new video, soldiers are engaged in electrifying combat - deploying a range of military assets from short to long range weaponry, to armour and helicopters, battling for superiority in the new game modes and FTEs.
The “Overwatch” DLC extends the unique Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising experience in solo, co-operative and adversarial play. In the new multiplayer mode, Blindside, the PLA must complete objectives in the shortest time possible while the USMC defends in tense, tactical engagements. An additional new mode, Supremacy, tasks opposing forces to occupy strategically vital positions featuring force multipliers like gun emplacements and air strikes.
These new multi-player modes are complimented by two exhilarating new FTEs. In Friendly Skies, PLA anti-aircraft artillery prevents U.S. airborne reinforcements from inserting into the combat zone. Players must remove that threat and then defend the position from a PLA counter attack. In Hostile Takeover, intel reveals enemy movement in the village of Armudan, a perfect base for launching attacks deep into enemy territory. Gamers must flush out the PLA, establish a perimeter and hold their ground against a new enemy assault.
