Overwatch DLC



The "Overwatch"-DLC extends the Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising experience
in solo, co-operative and adversarial play. In new multiplayer mode Blindside
the PLA must complete objectives in the shortest time possible while the USMC
defends in tense, tactical engagements. An additional new mode, Supremacy, tasks
opposing forces to occupy strategically vital positions featuring force
multipliers like gun emplacements and air strikes.



Blindside pits a team of attackers versus a team of defenders in an
objective-based mode that sees the attackers tasked with completing three
objectives, while a team of defenders goes all-out to stop them. The attackers
can complete the first two objectives in any order, while the third objective is
only accessible once the first two objectives have been completed. In addition
to having to overcome the defenders, the attackers are also under a time limit
set by the host.



Maps: St. Sergius' Shadow, Road to Taranay



Supremacy is an objective-based territory control mode. Each team scores points
by holding one of 5 capture points. Each capture point will also contain an
asset , such as access to off-board fire support, when held for a prolonged
period of time. The winning team is the team with the most points at the end of
the round, or the first team to reach the points limit. If either team holds all
territories simultaneously, they automatically win the match.



Maps: The Salt Flats, Island Control



These new multiplayer modes are complimented by two brand new FTEs. In Friendly
Skies, PLA anti-aircraft artillery prevents US airborne reinforcements inserting
into the combat zone. Players must remove that threat and then defend the
position from a PLA counter attack. In Hostile Takeover, intel reveals enemy
movement in the village of Armudan, a perfect base for launching attacks deep
into enemy territory. Gamers must flush out the PLA, establish a perimeter and
hold their ground against a new enemy assault.
