"The most annoying sounds of all are the extremely loud, unsynchronized, overlapping Russian radio broadcasts you'll hear near the Russian border, which produce an unbearable cacophony of gibberish"

hehe, yes indeed this is a classic in the campaign. I like the fact that in dialogue it speaks of being near a radio or tv to check the broadcast and yet its triggered like its on a loudspeaker all over the towns.

I was trying to have dialogue with the priest and could not hear a word he was saying with the announcement blaring behind him and standing to talk to him triggered the subtitle text as well for it so couldn't read what the priest was saying either.

A2 has a campaign ?? wha..

15-20 man Co-op missions with close mates / squadies is really how A2 should be reviewed with player made missions, thats what A2 is really about..

Hi all

CNET has reviewed ArmA and give it an 80% rating

...Despite an infuriatingly buggy single-player campaign and some artificial intelligence driving issues, Arma II is a triumph. From its fascinating, sophisticated, and unscripted battles to the immersive detail of the gameworld, Arma II delivers a wholly unique and uncommonly replayable gaming experience...

If that's what ArmA2 was "really about", there wouldn't be a single player option. I buy games for the campaign, first and foremost. Everything else is icing. So to me, that is the most important feature.

It gets 6.5 out of 10 from one Reviewer the other gives it 9 out of 10.

I like that the two reviewers assume the roles of both regular FPS players(6.5/10) and a milsim players(9/10).
