I have wanted this game since january and this has been my most wanted game since then (i wanted it more then Metal Gear Solid 2) and this game is going to be amazing.
Basically you take control of either four American Delta force people or four British SAS soldiers, the missions stay the same but the combat gear and the accents change.
You start off as a single soldier but your first mission involves rescuing a prisoner from the iraqi guards, this prisoner is infact the top sniper rifle guy so then he joins your quest and you have two people, eventually you will have four people in your squad and they can look after themselves.
They are gonna be the most realistic AI ever and they will protect you if you decide to go in alone (apparantly) they decide which gun they want to use in certain situations and they can think like real soldiers, one example that i have read about is that if there is a group of soldiers and you hide and decide to attack one of the other characters controlled by the computer will throw a grenade at them without you telling them to, they wont however throw the grenade at just one person because it would be a waste.
The four characters are meant to be really easy to control by just using the D - Pad to switch between the characters so you dont need to bother with any of them map thingys that the PC stratedgy games bother with.
Each character has a special role assigned to him, they are, rifleman,technician, heavy weapons man and leader. The others can do all the same jobs but the person who is aquired to do the job does it best.
Your characters build up experience points and that is why it is invaluable to not lose a character you have had for say 5 levels because he would have been an expert at shooting and keeping cool etc, but when he does get really badly injured you have 3 minutes exactly to get to him or he dies and a rookie comes in who cant shoot properly etc.
One good thing that looks good is the fact that you can get a target locked in like a tank and then you can call an air strike and watch as the F-16s fly in and blow up the target.
You can ambush people by skillfully setting your troops up and then giving them the order of "attack".
Talking of Orders there are a few, to be activated all you need to do is press L1 and then either triangle, circle or X and that will make them either, "stay back and cover you" "charge" or "follow me".
Conflict desert storm supports mulitplayer but its only two player which im happy with, you can ambush your mates etc.

yeah took me a while to work it out, L3 and R3 are used to swith to 1st person view and zooming in with sniper rifle.
i think R3 switches to 1st person, and L3 changes zoom.

Has anyone managed to vary the level of zoom on the sniper rifle ? Rolling demo on the previous OPS2 mag demo disc shows the sniper zooming into the target after switching to the first person targetting view.

Just played the demo today, so far am really impressed. Only had a couple of mess around goes. Can you do the whole level? If you click the 2nd anologue(sp)in you get a different view. Nice game.
I first heard of this game in Jan and no one knew about it on here :D
Leant the demo out to Longy so i am waiting for the proper game to come out on Friday. I pre ordered it ages ago and now its finally coming out in two days. Will be interesting to see how you will control all four people.
if you go onto www.conflict.com then it shows you a character background of all four cahracters, one of them (Jones) has a silenced MP5 which will be good.
TWO DAYS!
needed this since jan :D
