That looks like just the Operation Arrowhead Add on and not actually Arma II which you need to even run Operation Arrowhead and DayZ I think.

Didnt realize something people were saying you can download the demo of Arma 2 and then buy that and you can get it. But you get low resolution textures. But they also have the combined package on sale too LINK

Yep

quote:

Arma 2: Free (A2F) redefines the free-to-play battlefield with its truly unrivalled scale and gameplay possibilities. A2F serves up almost everything offered by the original Arma 2 - the '13th best PC game of all time', according to PC Gamer [1] - minus the campaign, HD graphics and support for user-made addons and mods.



Last part makes me wonder if DayZ would even work with it.


ETA If you buy that same package on Steam it's only $29.99. That's what I bought.

People on Reddit were saying you download the demo and then buy that and it would work just with the low resolution textures but it would definitely work

Though the graphics aren't that great in the game it's worth the few bucks to get HD content IMO.

Definitely. But the people with worse computers would save some money as they wouldnt need the higher resolution textures

I hope they improve the graphics in arma III, I'll definitely consider buying it if they significantly improve the graphic/ui

Lol, what? It doesn't look cartoony enough for you? I'm fairly certain they won't frick it up so it looks like a standard craptastic console shooter.

The Arma 2 UI is shite (especially the gear part) and is being reworked.
