ArmA 2 - Starting to play

Megahurtz400 · 26 Nov 2010 at 20:12

Bought this on release and it was so full of bugs I gave up on it

Just saw it in my cupboard and am very bored so thought i'd install it!

Any info about patches or hints and tips would be greatly appreciated

Online play might be limited now since Operation Arrowhead and British Forces DLCs have been released not to mention the upcoming (in less than a week) PMC DLC.

Arrowhead is £10 on Todays deal on Steam

I am purchasing.

ARMA 2 is awesome.
