Yep I have and I definitely prefer Dragon Rising. The map itself is better and the mission layout is more stealth based, four man teams and no BS. Red River is completely different, the open world is restricted, Knox is a pain in the arse and the graphics are extremely poor. Textures are very slow to render and that really takes away from the realism, but then again, Dragon Rising used the same engine...but the flaws were hidden by darkness so it didn't bother me too much. It just feels very...over the top with all of the American-isms. And they scrapped competitive multiplayer instead of fixing it? Nice one. Anthony's score is still about right though, just make sure you play it with a friend.
Up for a bit of co-op in Dragon Rising if you're keen. _________________

i have to say i like this one better than of:dr, like a couple of my freinds said while helping me out "oh wow, cool i can actually shoot people in this one!"...
i especialy like the terrain/maps compared to of:dr, this one feels a bit more battlefield...
each to their own i guess.
i could use sum help too though, if anyones keen for sum co-op send me a msg.
