tbh i really dont want a realistic warfare, i just want a war game that is arcadish like BF2
Arma 2 is probably more to your liking then.
As for ARMA2, I refuse to buy broken product. I'll pick this up when it's 20 bucks and patched.
You will be waiting 2+ years. BIS is absolutely horrible patching games. It takes them years to do what most developers do in months.
Arma 1 still is not patched properly. The last official patch was a complete disaster and causes the game to crash at least once per hour. The beta patch is still just a beta patch 6 month after coming out.
It takes these clowns 2+ years and the game still crashes almost as much as it did with the 1.0 release.

From what I gather, ArmA 1 was mostly about earning some cash and getting the tech from the xbox port of Flashpoint into the hands of fans.
There it is for the fanboys to read in plain English. It is a badly ported console game. Arma2 is more of the same building off the codebase from Arma 1.
Opflash2 will be more about realism. Arma2 will mainly be an Xbox360 title and the gameplay will fit that.
Have you been following the interviews with the developers? They have stated many times that they want to make Arma more mainstream. Translation: less realistic and more death-match like BF2.
Re: Vista Service Pack 2...you can polish a turd all you want. It is still a turd.
Novalogic is now just one fat guy making mod'ed versions of their old games in his mom's basement.
I expect Arma 2 to br aimed much more at consoles. It will be closer to BF2.
The preview was very fair in their portrayal of Opflash and Arma1 as buggy games that lacked polish. It has taken BIS over 2 years and Arma 1 still has major crash bugs.

Opflash2 looks better than Arma2 and, lets face it, BIS releases buggy awkward games.
Arma2 is also aimed at console players so it too will be very "arcadey"

This is a prime example of the sorry state of PC gaming today. I am going to miss playing games on the PC but it isn't worth upgrading my computer every 1.5 years any more. So many crappy ports.
They have designed Sims 3 to work almost like Xbox Live. You have to pay to get additional content and that is where they will make the real money. EA knows this.
Piracy or not they will make a killing.

BI is so very slow to release the patches. What takes them almost two years needs to be done in six months.
Amen to that. Most of the patches are fixes for new bugs they introduced in the patches.
The fanboys keep raving about how much support they get years later from BIS but it took them over a year to release a single buggy patch.
1.14 was the last official patch that left my game crashing every hour. Most of the time when I exit the game my screen goes black and I have to reboot my computer.
Finally they got things right in 1.16 YEARS after release (but it is still just a beta patch).
If you want Arma 2 to work properly buy it in 2 years.
Every time I see the initials DNF I keep thinking DNR for some reason. Rather appropriate don't you think?

Creston has it.
Yes, but don't worry. Genital Herpes is manageable with modern drugs I have read.
This was going to be a great game, it just needed to cook for a while longer but no, they pulled out at the very last minute just when a few more days of coding was needed.
Yup, I agree. Another couple of million and they would have been done. Well, maybe not done done. Done the first milestone for sure. They would have the best concept art in the business.
I blame Obama! Funny how we went from blame everything on Bush to Obama is God. I have an answer for ya, media bias!:)
I have an answer for ya, you are a fucking idiot.
Mine doesn't, WHAT NOW?! Duel to the death.
Nope, people just need point their browsers to the Fallout forums and they can read all the endless complaints of bugs.
They're a lot of fun and they do function.
The PC version of Fallout3 doesn't run for more than about an hour without a crash or a bug appearing.
Right, it was the economy's fault. Had absolutely nothing to do with the bloatware known as Vista.
Bethesda makes awesome games except for the very buggy Fallout 3.
Made the correction for you.
