Weighing up whether to buy this.

$50 on steam.

Its basically a tactical realistic war simulation. Dont know too much about it but looks OK. I dont think you would like it if your into 'rambo' FPS.

Anyone else into this kind of stuff, or played ARMA 1.

was looking at that, boots really wanted to get it

yea if one of yous get it i will, its multioplyaer co-op as well which would be cool, so as soon as some1 gets it iwill will, post it up

I got it fuckers. You all should too if you know whats good for ya


yeah wounded heard the demo was buggy, the games ment to be better.

Hey uh i've played the first one, there's a few veteran's from the RAA etc that play that you meet here n there lol. Its a good game its good if you have a few fellas you know playing, then you can have people flying you into the combat zones n dudes with tanks giving cover etc.. then just move in as a group to take the town and so on. I liked the game when you have about 5 or 6 people as a group to capture shit and complete missions. ArmA2 looks alot better graphics wise.. (the first one was shit with graphics), and there seems to be more character freedom like jumping fences for instance.

I'm gonna get it when it comes out mainly for the multiiplayer and the fact that i wanna fly around that huey lol.

i remember bloodraiden playing arma alot, so you might see him in game. Try and contact him about it if you want boys.

yeah full version is out on steam, box version not for a little while though.

Mine finished DLing so ill try it tonight.

nastydisease has the game, speak to him. and bobby u have steam? account name bitch

Yeah Ive got ArmA2, I'm one of the admins on the OGN server. Yes usually Bohemia Interactive games begin buggy but they're actually a developer who support and care about the players. They continously release patches and shit - not just fixes, new weapons/vehicles and whole islands.

ArmA2 so far is looking great, the hard part is dealing with retards who think it's another COD4 (ONLY BIGG3R LOLZZZ)

So yeah I'd suggest trying out the demo first (completely ignore bugs as they'd either be fixed by now or Bohemia are ontop of it) and just see if the notion of dieing from a single shot from 500m away appeals to you.

Funny how Crysis made me rage so much to uninstall it (lol). I don't think I've ever raged from ArmA though - its not a twitchy skill game like Crysis, you usually beat your opponent through tactics and thinking. Not to mention the retarded amount of weapony, vehicles and aircraft!

My favorite part is the realistic ballistics they have, bullets aren't instant and are affected by gravity. Sniping just became a lot more difficult.

Oh and hi! - haven't spoken in 3 months since my last crysis rage-quit.

RAGGGE

me and gazz used to love your raging blood! hahaha the nights when we used to sit there and crack up.

Anyway, i might go get it, need a new game. Good to see around blood.

nice to hear from you blood. Been looking at the game myself. Possibly join others also in this game. But as suggested il download the demo first to see how its like

Hey blood, good to hear from ya.

Fuck this game is weird lol. Ive got training wheels on dude and im still crashing.

What name do you play under, TS server etc, and ill come have a game so you can teach me whats going on.

i dl the demo and had a short go tonite....was very shit....GFX bugs were rampant...the full game should be better though.

Blood long time no see my brother. Can i still use my face war paint in ArmA 2? too look like a scary mother fucker to all who gaze upon me mwhaha! As soon as this game hits the shelves i'm buying it up

Yeah I usually hang around on the OGN server, that way I can control the influx of retards and throw down the ban hammer when needed. Name is just BloodRaideN ...as usual lol.

ArmA2 has a stupidly steep learning curve, but stick with it, a month or two you'll know the name of every single piece of military hardware that exists today

As I said don't worry bout the bugs too much, the first few month of Operation Flashpoint, and ArmA1 were rocky and chock full of bugs. 2-3 months later your playing with a solid game as well as the new content they throw in.

You'll see there's a couple of other Australian servers, Internode have no admins as far as I'm aware. GamingSA has only a couple. Whereas all senior and veteran OGN members are admins - so the server is under control 95% of the time.

Yeah the OGN fellas are good played with a few b4, pretty good at squad work and clearing towns out

lol Cosmic made me dont wanna play these

i think this game should be cool though, all the tactics and shit, haha, love it, just like DoW2

Bout it today... i'd say 100% better then the orig version already... and that was only 5 mins playing.. much more to do and multiplayer to explore....

Tomorrow nano, want to have a game

I'll come in and teach ya's some stuff on the weekend, got work at night this week so I won't be home till 11pm, and got golf on sat so i'll be on sat night if ya want to have a game then . haha wounded its alot different to crysis, you gotta be watching everything at once in this game, dnt look one way and there'll be a dude hiding in the bush then bang! lol.

is it good multiplayer and co-op??

lolso i take it as a yes

Yes it is a waste for stat whores

Wounded, sif have Arma2 and not play it with me

You. Me. M107's. Top of a hill. Fucking. Now.

Or should that be Fucking Now. ?

I dunno. But either way. Do it.

lol 50 Cal. haha shin shooting down heli's etc with that... shoot tanks n destroy them... why waste it on men.. haha

haha wounded its good when you have 2 or 3 fellas playing with u, gets immersive.

lol u gotta come on and play, i can go through some controls with u if u want

wounded... stop been a fucking slut.
Have steam autorun when your PC starts up so cunts know when you're online so we can fucking yell at you dickhead...
dumb cunt how are we ment to yell at you when your just like, oh ima jew and shit.

lmfao.. oh snap hit the nail on the head with that one.

I been watchn a lot of vids on this game recently and may give it a go......the demo shit me but the full game looks good, I like the idea of 50 player multi....you guys that have been playn it.....how is the MP/co-op? Is it fun or just very hard?
Shin and Foo i have seen playn it a lot should i get it n come pew pew with you guys?
Cossie.

The multi is good Cos mate. Most of it is team based but in saying that the majority of ArmA 2 players aren't 12 year olds running around gunning, so you get a good game play and working environment. ppl help out each other n shit, come to your aid if u need it, extract you from the shit if u need medivac and so on. Some good players and stuff goes on. Meh i've been playing in on and off when i can cos i'm capped... come on net only a few more days!!

Yeah Wounded. What Foo said. GTFON Steam so we CAN yell at you

Ok Mav can we fly our Jets in this game or what? .......you can be my wingman anytime! lol
I will dl it tonight....
Iceman out/

Ken oath you can fly jets... they're insanely fun! Landing the first time was scary, but a complete success!

Unfortunately the only 2-seater is on the russian team (SU-34), the US jets are all single seaters D:

meh so we fly in formation not in same aircraft.. haha, and the helo's i love flying about 5 feet off the ground between the trees.. is good fun and makes ppl jump out cos they think ima crash... haha

ARMA II goes Free to Play

http://games.on.net/article/12962/ArmA_II_Free_-_Now_Available_in_the_File_Library

Matthew Williams wrote:

Earlier this month we announced that ArmA II would be going Free to Play (F2P). While Team Fortress 2 might be stealing all the F2P glory today, we are pleased to announce that ArmA II: Free is finally here and available now through our file library.

ArmA II: Free delivers all the multiplayer fun of its retail counterpart "minus the campaign, HD graphics and support for user-made addons and mods". The F2P instalment retains the game's full arsenal of over 300 weapons and vehicles, big team battle support for 50+ players and access to the SP/MP level editor. The game is completely free to play, host and share, without subscription fees or micro-transactions.

Arma 2: Free (A2F) redefines the free-to-play battlefield with its truly unrivalled scale and gameplay possibilities. A2F serves up almost everything offered by the original Arma 2 - the '13th best PC game of all time', according to PC Gamer [1] - minus the campaign, HD graphics and support for user-made addons and mods.

So it's not the full game, and you can't use mods
But it's free.

The Campaign, HD Graphics and user-made addons and mods or what makes ARMA 2 so good too..

I want my money back

Hello desicrater
You should speak to Pauline about wanting your money back.
Pauline complains about Homefront so much she goes into the game servers and complains to all the gamers online over and over... every night.. night after agonizing night.
Pauline complains about the game and then personalises it by accusing the gamers as braindead and then it is on for young and old... server against pauline and I.
However, there is a silver lining... we don't get banned anymore.

I hear there is even DLC coming out for homefront ! wait until pauline hears about this, more abuse on the servers !
The abuse is even better than playing the game !
I'd say see you in game but nah, none of you have it and i wouldn't recommend it, in fact it is FUCKING SHIT AND THE DEVELOPERS SHOULD BE SHOT AND BURRIED ALIVE

Kaos Studios (the Homefront devs) have been shut down, although I think they are still going to support Homefront.
