New York, NY (May 17, 2002) - Codemasters has released a pre-E3 teaser trailer for Operation Flashpoint: Resistance, the official expansion to Operation Flashpoint: Cold War Crisis from Bohemia Interactive Studio. The 13Mb trailer can be downloaded from: http://www.codemasters.com/downloads/displayfiles.php?showdetails=2297 .

From Codemasters:

Enhancing the Flashpoint universe, Operation Flashpoint: Resistance creates an additional 100km2 island complete with industrial-style buildings and original landscape scenery. Thanks to the use of high-resolution textures, the visuals will be much more detailed and dramatic than ever before.

The expansion also delivers a new campaign that forms a prequel to the original game's plot and is set years before Operation Flashpoint's Cold War hit crisis point. All the events in the Resistance campaign are closely linked. As players progress through the campaign the amount of equipment, ammunition and fellow soldiers persists from one mission to another. Tactical use of supplies comes into play as there's no telling what lies ahead.

In addition to the new campaign, the expansion offers enhanced network code incorporating an in-game server browser system and completely overhauled communication code for better multiplayer performance. Operation Flashpoint: Resistance requires the original game to play and is set to launch in June for PC CD-ROM.
