I wasn't suggesting the people buying it are arma 2 fans who will buy arma 3.

And if you look at the first post, that's exactly what he was suggesting, and I was countering.

And your numbers, nor do mine, tell us anything about how many people buy it and stop playing after a very short period of time. Which was my point. I wouldn't be at all surprised if there are more sales than there are players. Which is actually a compliment towards the mod as I think they'd have far more players if they were not using the Arma 2 engine.

I missed the 22,000 and was looking at the '110,000 in 24 hrs'. That's decent numbers, but could also be cherry picked from a high peak after a sale. I thought the recent word was that the interest in DayZ had fallen off due to some changes to social impact gameplay?
