Which do you play more? Huge PVP MP battles or small coop missions?

[BF2_Trooper]

I'm still pretty new to this whole concept of playing in custom missions but I suppose this is one of the things that prolong the life ARMA? I'm curious, do you guys play PvP battles more? Or do you much prefer playing with a small group of friends in a coop mission?

[Wifout Teef]

I'd rather play with huge PVP battles but there are none. So I play Co-Op

[PRECISION]

I like having a small squad, against an army. And a ton of objectives. Co-op.

Huge PvP suck most of the time.. Medium-Small ones rock. Like 10vs10 inf. Or some missions with the story. Like resque the pilot.

We will have to see what happens on the ARMA2 MP scene after a while. For people wanting huge PvP battles they should join places like IC ARMA (International Conflict) where they always had huge interesting battles and an updating map on their site showing how the teams are doing (wich cities are taken so far). There should be tournaments coming soon where you can join up and fight your way to the top etc.

Personally i enjoy coop with a team of friends where we apply proper tactics, but i wouldnt mind huge PvP battles. Might even sign up later on with my mates to do some bigger stuff. If you have fun it doesnt really matter what you do. ARMA2 can be played either way and be great fun no matter what you do.

Check these links out. This is just some that organize large battles and tournaments etc.

The problem with coop is that after a while, your "proper tactics" turn into "proper anti-AI tactics", and it's just not the same thing anymore PvP won't allow you to do stupid stuff like that because real people are smarter, or at least can somewhat adjust.

Moved into MP as threads about multiplayer surprisingly enough belong in the multiplayer forum....

If there were any I would play more PVP games as i'm not a big fan of the coop game, instead I go for CTI where its both humans and bots and it works out really well actually.

PvP are playable only with a small group of well known friends, it's my opinion that PvP missions are the faster way to see all arma servers full of cheating people or if they are not cheating will be squabbling for this.

It's my dream to play a good Coop Missions with a perfect AI that do not look and shot me just for a changed bit from 0 to 1. This is my dream, this is what I would like.

oh BTW sorry for my bad english.

Hi all

Sorry but ArmA 2 is much bigger than both those options.

I play both those game forms and many more besides, where is the option for PvP coops? Where are the Asymentric PvP options? Where are the role playing game options? Where are the Player against Player strategy options? Where are the CTI options? Where are the campaign options? I could go on for ever...

Your poll is also based on a false dichotomy, it is straw man argument.

ArmA is not about creating prisons for the players mind, it about giving them freedom to choose. A choice of two when in reality we have an infinity of options smacks of nothing more the party hacks confidense trick.

Kind Regards walker
