I was disappointed to find out that Op Flashpoint, particulary resistance has real boundaries. I took off on one mission in which a tanks platoon was coming my way and I had to mine the place. So I thought I'd catch the tanks way up the road, but when I got there, I saw the road just had a start in the middle of no where, and then I watched the tanks spawn!!! Ahhh! I hate spawning!

Some years ago I took the biggets island, Nogova (map size 10x10 km), and crowded it with overland-patrols, and local garrisons guarding each settlement. I am nott sure, but I think I had over a hundred randomized patrols, with randomized groups psizes, starting loactions, and complex movement paths. No mission. I set up two bases where all equipment was available. Player simply dropped into the setup via mission editor, and had fun, alone, with a team, silent sneaking, noisy assault, no matter - total freedom of action to do whatever one wanted to do. Longest session i ever had was three simulated days and nights, before getting extracted again. I had so many things placed on the island that on my system performance dropped to the necessary minimum. Had a lot of fun with that one.
