been playing on the 7Cav Server a lot lately - its pretty darn good, especially when you get on teamspeak too, spent 4 hours the other day sneaking a special forces team in and out of side missions

only downside of the ARMA free stuff it seems is that a lot more n00bs connect to the server now and blow everything up in base, tk a few people and then get kicked

Is that the 7Cav OA server?

dmcg · 13 Jul 2011 at 09:29

I play on 7cav too great server shame it lags abit

panda_uk · 13 Jul 2011 at 10:07

I've been playing the free version decided to buy arma2 and OA just to get away from the idiots and hackers.

just got arma2 reinforcements dvd after waiting 3 weeks to deliver lol but do I just install the dlc only or the whole reinforcements option if I have OA installed already?

silversurfer · 13 Jul 2011 at 17:19

dlc I imagine since you are already playing. I guess the alternative option allows dlc players to have a go as a standalone?

Vtec9k · 13 Jul 2011 at 18:00

Yea install the dlc into your OA folder.

The standalone is just for people who don't own arma2 at all

Been playing on 7cav after seeing peps above raving about it. Great server, pretty strict though reasonable I guess. The lag can get annoying though

thats such a greatly insightful post you have their........no really.

would be nice if 7cav had more than 1 map though gets kinda boring as its a bit too easy

Anyone tried this mod it looks really good

panda_uk · 18 Jul 2011 at 11:42

Yeah +1 for changing the map on 7cav, pretty boring now. Also I find original arma 2 harder.

+1 - completely agree. I'm getting really bored of desert / arid environments.

Daniel C · 18 Jul 2011 at 13:48

Have a question. Every server I join I encounter lag, with the enemy ai warping all over the place, sometimes my team mates warping and jumping about. Very annoying because it really detracts from the realism.

Is it just on my side or has anyone come across this?

I played chenarus last night with all the OA gear. Think you need to have CO to do it though. Good laugh till it turned to night and I didn't pack my night vision.
