Arma 2: Operation Arrowhead

We are still around indeed. We've lost a few like Defiance though... haven't heard from that guy for a while now which is a big shame.

This will blow your mind: the PR chaps are moving to the arma engine!!!!

Yeah seen it, although whether the same formula will work on the engine remains to be seen. While in some respects ARMA engine is better not to mention more modern (although part of PR's charm is that it will play well on older machines) it does lack the VOIP and squad system. I believe those 2 are what make PR so much more accessible since it allows organisation in minutes.
 
Looks interesting. I enjoyed Arma II and still have my copy sat gathering dust here. So will this be an expansion pack that you use by first installing Arma II then installing this?. Will it be available off the shelf as a DVD or can we download it when it gets released?.

It would be great if we can get the old OCUK clan up and running again with me, L33 and others. we was playing Arma 2 for a good few months and it was awsome.

Where are you guys man??

Its a standalone version. in all honest this game is more like Arma 2.5 then an actual expansion pack.

i mean it offers soo much new content and features and not to mention various tweaks and fixes as well

Yea i remember you. Im also looking to play Arma 2 again but i may just wait until OA comes out because i wanna complete red dead redemption first before this game comes out.

Im getting a bit bored of BC2. have not played it in weeks. its too COD for me. run and gun games bore me really quickly
 
You lads should come along to www.havoc-company.com, a lot of us from the old OcUK clan are there, we are well organised and not a "start and die" clan.

I think Jonny and Oxy are already in, Sunday operation is tomorow... be glad to have you. Age ranges are 18-40+ so we have a good laugh.
 
I'm in that age range, but I'm no good at killing anything. On a bright side though I die very rarely too though!

I'm. Going to try and come later. Is it possible to join in midway into the game?
 
Looking to get into Arma 2 and OA when it is out (now that I have a pc that I can play them on).

I've not yet bought Arma 2 as I am not sure if it is better to go with the DVD version (can be had for £11.99 from Play) or see if there is a drop in the Steam price.

I was expecting to see the OA addon advertised and, may be a little early, a combo/gold edition of Arma 2 + OA addon.

As and when I have Arma 2, I will also sign up to the clan page.

**Edit**
I was into Operation Flashpoint and, to a lesser extent, Arma up until a few years ago.

They've removed the DRM with the latest patch if that helps your choice.

I know nothing of the DRM used on Arma 2. If it lets you play without the DVD then that would be good enough.

Just need to know how much AO addon is likely to be.
 
Yeah it was a standard securom cd check, but i know some folk have a steam preference because you don't have physical media to check.

£13 difference between Steam and DVD makes the choice almost easy.

Any idea how much the AO addon is likely to be priced as?

whats this going to run like on my pc ? ;-)

I have heard that it can run like a dog even on high end systems and settings.

I have the following:

i7 920 (currently at stock)
6Gb Ram
2x 5850s (currently at stock)

I have a HP ZR24w which has a native res of 1920x1200.

As and when I get the game, I plan to set things at high and see how it goes.
 
OA will run a lot better than A2 because its in a desert/city and not god damned chernarus. You get bored of that map when every single tree is a well known landmark to you.
 
There is no western europe publisher for Arrowhead, that is why it is not for pre-order anywhere!!

You guys should really get into Arma 2 clans, we hardly ever play Chenrus, theres so many new islands from the mod community.

As a consequence they run with higher fps then chenarus as well.
