What about pressing Q and then new options like:
Move up
Wait
Hold here
Suppresing Fire
Fire at will etc..

Looking at Codemaster's Dragon Rising, I believe the PR-Devteam should take a close look at the Ego-Engine. The game is due on October 6th...

Pros: Great smoke effects, long visibility, huge maps, bullet-drop fx, future-proof graphics, comprehensive editor, people can create their own (PR) scenarios much easier, direct gameplay feel

Cons: 32player-limit atm (could be changed though), higher minimum specs, game isn't out yet

Conlusion: Make ur own


Just my 2 cents
PS: latest trailer link:
YouTube - Operation Flashpoint Dragon Rising - Fog of War Dev Video (US)

OP Flashpoint was made by the same creators as ArmA2, even uses the same engine, BTW the engine's optimization sucks bigtime, more then half of the PR players' PCs won't handle it over 10 FPS... That is not good if you want your comunity to go into possitve growth and not negative growth...

You are confusing operation flashpoint with operation flashpoint 2.

The original OFP was created by Bohemia Interactive who carried on developing this game
and this engine to ArmA and ArmA2.

Codemasters however bought the name "Operation Flashpoint" and developed OFP2. This game uses the Ego-Engine and is fundamentally different to the old OFP-Engine that is still used in ArmA.

OFP 2's optimization is very good from what first reviews said ("never under 30fps").

Guys you are way off topic, we are discussing future PR engines here

The Ego-Engine is proprietary so short of modding OFP2 (which we have no interest in) it's useless to us.

I think it's about time this thread got a name change. We have chosen our engine and the likeliness of us changing to another one is almost non-existent.
