Codemasters sends along a second Operation Flashpoint 2: Dragon Rising trailer which, like the first, is of the CGI variety using in-game models. The trailer shows a full-scale battle between US marines and the People's Liberation Army of China.

There are also some "target render" screenshots from the game, which is expected to be released for PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in 2009.

Did anyone else notice the sound quality? The guns sound weird in the beginning then when the helicopters start flying by it just sounds horrible. Hopefully that's not what the game sounds like.

Too bad ARMA never stuck with me, maybe I such in games like this but I did not even make it through the training missions. Something like 10 different stances and walking speeds, basically whatever I wanted to do - I either instantely got shot from some guy hiding behind two twigs 7 kilometres away or a tank crew miraculously saw me hiding behind a tree, lying down while driving by with 65 km/h, main gun looking in a completely different direction. Give me Joint Ops III and I am a happy man.

Wow, this was a nice surprise. This game fell off my radar about a year and a half ago. I hope it's better than that abomination called ArmA.

What does "Target Render" mean? Is that a fancy term for "Photoshop Filtered"?

I don't think prerenders are that bad. They show you the gameplay/immersion/ etc that the devloper is shooting for.

If this is any indication, I think the developer has rewlaized that ArmA was a bit too hardcore. They're probably taking it down a bit.

That said, the combat looked very epic and I really loved the tactical look of it.

Wow. I really hope they dont stray from their tactical roots and go with Battlefield / CoD paced gameplay. This looks great, but I don't want another run-n-gun game. I want a thinking man's shooter.
