Retro Game Walkthroughs for Operation Flashpoint (PC Games)
Submitted By: dfnhifiasdhfuiasdnfa
Start and Training

Operation Flashpoint starts off as being quite simple. You start
off being inspected by you commander and then are told to run to
the nearby truck, just go to the yellow box, and back. When you
do get back remember to put your M16 on your back or else you¡|ll
just be standing there. Then you are told to go and get into a
truck, follow the other people in your squad. The truck takes to
you to a pretty simple obstacle course, all you need to do is
walk in the ¡¥maze¡| walking along the planks then get down onto
your stomach and crawl under the mesh, then sprint back to your
team and wait for everyone else to finish. When everyone has
managed to finish the course get back into the truck and you are
taken to the firing range, there fill up on Ammo and go to Range
3. You¡|ll need three shots to knock down each target so just
keep on firing until all three targets are down. Congratulations
you just finished training ļ.

Flashpoint

You¡|ve just finished training and you¡|re straight into some
action. Get onto the helicopter and it¡|ll take you near Morton,
the village you have to secure. You¡|ll be briefed on your way
there so keep on listening out to any talk that happens on the
¡¥copter. Get out and start advancing on the village. When
advancing though always stay with your team, moving ahead of them
will only get you killed. Oh yeah and put burst mode on your
rifle, it¡|s much easier to kill enemies using burst mode. When
advancing with your team stay on the ground and when needed get
up for SHORT sprints. As you get nearer to Morton your leader
will start telling you to kill certain enemies, listen to him ,
he knows what he¡|s talking about. However this doesn¡|t stop you
killing other enemies, remember the more you kill the quicker you
finish the mission. If you run low on M16 ammo feel free to nick
the odd weapon from the dead enemies but remember this takes some
time so make sure you are sort of covered before trying. When in
the village don¡|t go into the mindset that you¡|re so there
should be no enemies left, there will be enemies in the village
right up until the mission ends.

Combined Arms

You start in a truck and when you get to your destination get
off, follow your leader for a bit and there you¡|ll be told
exactly what is happening by your leader. Keep on following your
leader in the position you¡|re meant to be and advance to your
attacking position north of Regina. There will be a lot of bushes
between you and Regina, use these to your advantage. On your way
to Regina you¡|ll see a couple of big vehicles, leave these
alone because in your squad there will be a couple of LAW
soldiers (rocket launcher) and you¡|ll have another squad of
tanks advancing with you. Eventually you¡|ll be told that the
village in clear, be cautious though before this report is given.
As you enter the village you¡|ll get a message from Papa Bear
that there are Russian tanks advancing on the village and you¡|ll
be told to retreat. DO IT QUICK. Hanging around will mean you¡|ll
be shreaded into lots of little pieces but the tanks. Head
towards wher you are told to go forgetting the rest of your
squad. When you get to safety the mission will end.



Camping

This mission starts off pretty easy with you being driven to a
truck by the commander in the jeep, he¡|ll tell you that he
doesn¡|t know exactly who¡|s attacking the islands and then
you¡|ll be at the truck. Get out of the jeep and into the truck
as the river and follow the commander in his jeep back to the
other men. Do NOT run the commander over, you¡|re truck is about
5 times bigger than the jeep and its very easy for the truck to
tip the jeep over. DO NOT DO IT. You¡|ll just have to restart the
mission (very boring). When you get to the other men they¡|ll get
into the truck and you¡|ll be told to go and follow the jeep.
You¡|ll drop the men off somewhere and you¡|ll be told to get
into the jeep and go on patrol with the commander. The commander
will stoop the jeep and tell everyone to get out, just follow the
commander and kill anyone you see. At one point you¡|ll see a US
APC, don¡|t worry you¡|ll be safe and above all don¡|t shoot at
it. Then you¡|ll be told to go back to Le Moule where everyone
else is and then the mission will be over.

Alert

You¡|re in Morton at the beginning hanging around, as usual and
then you get a cry of help through tht e radio and it¡|s then
when you have to go straight into action. Wait for the APC and
get on it. You¡|ll get taken straight into the middle of the
fighting. Watch out you¡|ll be shot at from two directions,
concentrate on one direction, it¡|s up to you hat direction you
concentrate on but stick to one. Alowly and carelfully move to
the north to your pick-up point and AS ALWAYS stick to your
leaders commands, he knows what he¡|s on about. At this point
keep an eye on all sides because you¡|ll be shot at all
directions, one by one pick off all the people. When you¡|ve
killed everyone you¡|ll be fine and get onto the truck.

1.TRAINING

Just follow orders. I sure don't have to tell you how to walk properly.

2. FLASHPOINT

In your first real mission you'll learn two important rules.
A.)"If you wanna grow old, stay out of the road"
B.)If you are carrying a lousy M16 and there are M1A1 tanks to support you, why would you bother to attack in blind rage?
So take cover and let the others do most of the work. No heroics, understand?
Move slowly towards the village and eliminate everything the others have leftover.
When all enemies have died or retreated you are victorious.

Tip: If you're lying inside a bush (the black spots on the map), you're almost invisible.
Even soldiers at distances of 50m and less won't spot you.

3. COMBINED ARMS

This is an opportunity to practice, what we've learned in the last mission. Stay down!
Don't get to comfortable in that village, because there will be T80 tanks closing in.
So get in and get out fast, preferably through the wood, as this is the safest way.

4. CAMPING

Follow orders and more importantly follow Srg. Bergmann until you're on patrol. Do the patrol-thing on your own: Run through the wood and exit it at Ch50. You will notice 3 Russians, take them out. Then there's one SpetzNatz on the southern edge of the wood.
Dispose of him and return to the Jeep. There may be other enemies, but don't worry, the supporting M113 will deal with them. Wait for the others and return to Le Moule.

5. ALERT

Get into the tent and trade in your M16 for the M60. This takes us to another rule.
C.) Take all the equipment you can get. Heavy? "Heavy means reliable. I always go for reliability."
After you disembarked the M113 take cover and then "kill them all and let god sort them out".
Wait for reinforcements, board truck. Done

6. MONTIGNAC MUST FALL

This mission is the mother of all screw-ups. Seizing Montignac is as easy as taking candy from a baby, but you get orders to withdraw.
So you'll have to engage Russians near Provins while retreating.
No matter how hard you try, they'll blow up your truck. Consequently the Blackhawk will be shot down by a Hind and you'll be on your own for the next mission. So remember rule A and hide in the western woods, the others will die anyway.

7. AFTER MONTIGNAC

This one is the first really tough mission and it outlines, what is so special about OFP.
This mission is pure adrenaline and pure fright.
Do NOT pick up binoculars or LAW from the fallen, you'd get spotted. Exit the forest at Df56.
Run zig-zag to the bushes at Df57. Now prone through the bushes all the way to Dg58.
Enter the next forest, keep an eye out for enemies inside the woods, too.
By now Papa Bear should have told you about the alternate evac point.
Exit the wood at Dh63. Now cross the road and get to that second evac point.

8. RESCUE

Take out the Binoculars and watch for a UAZ arriving from the right. Then assist in the attack, covering the right flank. Try to steal a machinegun from one of the dead and hide in a bush as there will be Russian reinforcements arriving in a Ural from down the road.
Gun them down as they are disembarking. Before you board the truck SAVE and pray that the nearby BMP does not spot you and blow you to pieces. After exiting the truck stay alert for enemies and continue to the meeting point with the civilians.

9. UNDERCOVER

Nothing special. You'll be detected at the second checkpoint. Try to stay alive and move to the woods. Now continue south to the resistance camp. The leader is in the big tower (ramp up and inside).

10. NIGHT PATROL

After the retry-point is set keep you're eyes open for SpetzNatz coming for the east.
Use the NV goggles and the binoculars. Kill 'em and get a good nights rest.

11. HOLD MALDEN

Get into that machine-gun and start gunning them down. When they
begin bombarding back out to the north and hide in the bushes. Take down some Russkies from safe distance and wait until there's order to retreat. Move quickly to the north and watch out for those paratroopers.


12. DEFENDER

Lay your first two mines as you like then place the third about 200m up the road.
If some tanks evaded the first mine they're going to return to the road later.
Get back to your commander and grab a LAW plus all the ammo you
can get. After some big explosions finish the rest of the tanks with the LAW. Be quick, your first shot will give away your position and you're likely to need two LAWs per tank.

13. TANK TRAINING

Get in M60 as driver and move to the training grounds. After the training order your driver to go to next waypoint (1,9) and meet up with your commander. Keep formation (1,1) until you spot the BMP, get rid of it. You will now learn another important rule, let's call it D.) Never use cannons/explosives against infantry, if you're inside a tank use the MG, that's what it's there for.
Now let your gunner take out all the enemy infantry and you're
done.

14. BATTLE AT HOUDAN

Following orders and mission plan should be easy. When it comes to attacking the border zone your primary objective is to stay alive. There's no chance you can take the border zone with a lousy M60 and without support. Get to safety and wait for RTB order, then RTB.

15. INTERDICTION

The mentioned RPG-platoon is right in front of you. Wipe 'em out.
Continue to the ledge and hit the dirt. Prone down using the bushes in the south of sector Fh60 as cover. Dispose of enemy patrols if necessary but try to remain undetected. Put a Satchel Charge to the first tank and put the second in front of the last bush, where the second tank comes to the end of his patrol. Retreat to the hill again. Then wait for the second tank to reach the bush and touch off both bombs. Send the radio messages to TWO and THREE and then back out.
There may be an enemy squad at the location of the RPG-soldiers.
Take them out and retreat to the north.

16. SPEARHEAD

Another M60 mission, oh well. Watch out for RPG soldiers target
them first.
The tanks should be no problem, just remember Rule A and let the
others do most of the job.
When you have seized Lolisse repair at the repair truck if necessary. Then hold the city. If you experience problems with assaulting forces try following tactics.
Go down to the beach and target your enemy. Then move up until
you're sure you have a good shot. Fire and immediately reverse. Continue until all enemy forces have been eliminated.

17. PATHFINDER

Pray that your mates are able to destroy the first Shilka and begin looking for a LAW or RPG on a dead (hopefully Russian) soldier.
Then continue as planned and eliminate the second Shilka, if your lads don't manage to do so.
Get down and wait for the choppers to finish their job. Then roam
around and kill any remaining enemies.

18. TANK RALLY

At last, the M1A1. This tank can sustain multiple hits and compared to the enemy force in this mission it is indestructible. Take Chapoi and La Riviere and toast all enemies while you're at it. This mission is simple!

19. UNFINISHED BUSINESS

Do as told and you should not encounter any enemies in this mission. So go there and back and do not get shot!

20. TAKING COMMAND

Another learning mission. Familiarize yourself with being in command. To repel the attack make sure your LAW soldiers target the BMPs and all others are engaging someone (engage at will). Meanwhile keep your head low and take out some Russkies yourself.

21. SCOUTING

Get your squad into the jeep. Remember Rule B and let the APCs do
the first job.
Continue then along the road. The enemy base is at De25. Stop at
the top of the hill and prone forward until you spot the base. Get back into the Jeep and to base ignoring all enemy attacks. This leads us to rule E.) Never stop for enemy infantry, if you can just drive by.
It's safer to drive by at 50 mph and getting shot at two or three times without possibility to return fire than stopping and being a perfect target while disembarking.

22. TURNING THE TIDE

This is the first mission where changing your gear is possible AND makes some sense.
Take the M21 sniper rifle and a LAW (remember rule C?). This will be your standard setup for most of the future missions. Take cover in the bushes, move towards the valley, but keep an eye on the left flank. Make your way through the valley by sniping most of your enemies.
When your almost at the enemy base, radio Bravo for support and
snipe the surprised guards.
Tell your LAW soldiers to target the BMPs, but be prepared to deal with them yourself.

23. SABOTEUR

Rule F.) "A proning black op is invisible at night."
Take one satchel charge extra in your gear, you won't need so much ammo in this mission.
Cross the road and hide in some bush on the right side of the road. Take down the patrol, then continue to Levie. Place a charge at the northern ammo crates. Take out the patroling soldier and the two guys standing south of the Ural trucks. place a charge near the trucks
and take two charges from the dead SpetzNatz. Get into the wood and touch off the bombs.
Continue south through the forest and exit itat the southern border of sector Fh67. Prone down using the bushes in the south of the base as cover.
Watch out for the patrol, but do NOT attack it. Lay your remaining satchel charges as you like it (Be sure to do maximum damage). Retreat to the south, when you're at the top of the hill, touch off the
bombs and watch the fireworks, then evacuate.

24. GUARDIAN

Put your squad into the APC and board the jeep yourself. Take the
southern route (turn right at the first crossroads). I did not meet any resistance there (except for some lone machinegunners). Just remember Rule E and drive it home to the airport.
<>

25. RETURN TO EDEN

Take the M21 and a LAW for your gear. Coordinate the attack of your squad with Bravo and Charlie. Take the Shilka out yourself, order your team to move to another position and/or let them engage at will. Radio the choppers and attack. Another rule:
G.) "It's hard to watch his whole squad die, but it's harder to die yourself."
So don't whine if your squad doesn't make it. Blast away that Shilka and seize the airport.


26. HIND ATTACK

Meet with your team. The enemy base is at Eg58, go there straight
away. Before exiting the woods order your squad to be stealthy. SAVE. Now stay in the forest yourself and let your team do the work. Send them to the important points of the base (the ammo depot in the northwest, the helicopters, the BMP, the fortress) and let them lay their bombs. If they encounter guards, they'll take them out on their own. Let them retreat into the forest and touch off the fireworks. Then evacuate to Ei61.

27. ROLLING THUNDER

The first town is no problem. The road to Montignac is a minefield, so evade it and go to Montignac keeping east of the forest. Seizing it should be no problem with an Abrams platoon, as there are only a handfull of armored vehicles and a bunch of infantry there.

28. AIRBORNE

Learn how to fly a chopper! All you do here is ferrying infantry. you will not be attacked by anyone and you do not need to destroy the BMPs necessarily.

29. AIR SUPERIORITY

This one is fun. Get to your chopper and blast them all away.
There's only one Shilka. Use a TOW to dispose of it quickly.

30. RECON

The positions of the Shilkas are Ea75,Eb73,Dg73. Send one of your
guys to each position and go to one yourself. Spot the Shilkas, retreat and radio for the boat.

31. KILLDOZER

Another not so hard tank mission. Call in Zulu, when you've secured your first objective A.
You'll need repairs by then. Call in Repair and Ammo trucks and resupply your platoon.
Continue to your second objective.

32. AIR ASSAULT

Divert to Buffalo Base, but spare your rockets and only use the cannon instead. At Saint Pierre attack the Shilka first, then try to dispose of the Hind.
Then go for the T72s as they only need one rocket each. Stay until Zulu team has seized the town.

33. WAKE UP CALL

Do exactly the same thing as in mission 30, but place satchel charges there, too. Back out, blow them up and evacuate as planned. If one of your mates get shot, be sure to cover his Shilka, too. Therefore only use our satchel charges for the Shilkas, do not ambush tanks or other armored units.

34. PLANES START

Take off!

35. MAVERICK

Target the Shilkas first, then the T80s. When you begin to lose fuel rapidly, ensure that you are over land and try to climb as much as you can, then eject. If you're not high enough ejecting will result in some very ugly fractures.

36. COUNTER STRIKE

Simple infantry mission. I recommend taking the M21 again (and a
LAW). Hide in a bush and snipe the enemies. Your squad should do the rest of the work.

37. ESCAPING FROM PRISON

Obey all orders or you will be shot. Wait until nighttime. Run for the BMP and enter it.
Run over some Russians and escape in the direction where it is pointing anyway. Use the built in compass to determine south (by the way south is where the mountains are, north is the sea. Of course you could also sit there looking for the big dipper).
Exit the BMP before it gets blown up by the Soviet forces and run up the mountains.
Continue south until you meet a friendly GI.

38. INCURSION

Give Gastovski a M21 and some LAWs (you won't need satchel charges). Snipe the guards at the entrance and the guards on the watchtowers along the fence. Tanks and BMPs will come looking for you and therefore breach trough the fence. Get in through one of these holes and then go southwest. Keep down at the shore, where nobody can see you.
Move west until sector Be44/43. Now go north and use the bushes
as concealment. Don't worry about the heavy infantry presence. Remember rule F, they can't see you. Wait for the right moment and then get into the house. After you have the codes get out again and evacuate the same way you have come.

39. SEARCH AND DESTROY

The SCUD is at Eb53. Leave your squd behind and go for it on your
own. Take a LAW with you at gear selection! Sneak your way through enemy lines until you've made contact with the SCUD. Take it out with the LAW. Now immediately switch back to your main weapon and
GET OUT OF THERE. Guba's goons will be mad as hell.


40. RED DAWN

Again take the M21 and a anti-tank launcher (I'd prefer the RPG this time, because you're more likely to run into ammo for this one in Russian territory; well you probably won't need it anyway). You also won't need your squad on this one. Take one guy with you into the jeep and let the others have a nice vacation. Proceed along the
southerly road and turn right at Eh51. Stop shortly before the base at Ed/Ee46 and snipe the guards. Drive into the base and mount the fuel truck. Take it outside to the Hind. Mount the Hind and take your friend with you as gunner(that's why you brought him all the way up here).
Now take off and head northeast.
Use the guided rockets to dispose of the Shilkas. Evade their AA-fire by shaking left an right and use it to locate their position and target them. Once you've spotted the SCUD (it's in the north of sector Ih20), take it out. Now descend a little and fly back west along the northern road until you spot a moving UAZ.
This is Guba. Head east again, land and setup an ambush. Hide somewhere with a good view on the road. When Guba arrives snipe the driver (be careful not to hit Guba!). Two SpetzNatz will exit the car, kill them too. Now run up to Guba and watch his despair.

41. STATUS QUO

Land at the airport (I KNOW it's difficult).
Do for God's sake not take the sportscar. Take the fuel truck instead and drive it to the Mi17. Board the chopper, refuel it and takeoff. Now this is the right style to pick up old war friends. Pick up everyone (Sam will be at the shore arriving in a boat) and fly them to the pub. If you like you can change helicopters at David's place. The Blackhawk is a nice thing, too, but I personally prefer the BIG Red Army carrier.
