    They have great support, but they still need some lessons in the release department

    Thumbs up

    Hey all,

    i just signed up here and thanks to pchaxor everything has been said that i wanted to say too but i also would like to ask a question.

    How alive is this community, can we expect ARMA 2 to be played years from now? I know that nobody can predict the future but since i am so totally new to this community i would really like to hear how some of you arma veterans see that. I certainly do hope it will be around for long! Which leads to the question.. was ARMA 2 actually a success for bohemia? I refused buying ARMA2 because of the bad press that was pointing its fingers at the bugs but now that i have gotten it from steam and a few patches have been there since then, i must say holy lord, this game is the best military game i have ever seen and i am absolutely in love with it. My only concern is that this love wont last for long as the community vanishes more and more to other games.. or do you guys think that concern is unreasoned?

    Btw. i also bought OF2 (preordered it) and i must say.. this game sucked hard! I wish i could have given that money to Bohemia in the first place by buying the retail version of ARMA2 and not the 20 bucks version on steam.

    Anyways cheers,
    rascal
    P.S. Glad to have found that awesome community and game
    P.S.2 Already looking forward to Arrowhead!

    Dont worry sir, no ones going anyplace that's for damn sure. You will notice a lot move over to "sample something" only to come back with business as usual. Im no vet but ive been around since oct 2007 when i got Arma1 (which I seeked out and looked for than stumbled upon) and this place is as hardcore, helpful and full on with mods and updates / patches and has never stopped, always something to read, download, test, feedback, enjoy, post, request ... its as infinite as the sandbox its built around

    I see all the usual suspects posting new updates, porting and beta testing for Arma2 from Arma1 .. it was not far after A2 release and the mods started to flow, Id say about now the momentum is real healthy like Arma1 for arma2 section now. Even Arma1 has a new patch on the way and mods are still being updated and added.

    I will be kaning Arma2 with mods and Arrowhead easy for the next 2 years, I can say that with confidence.

    Arma 2 - great software, great developers, great community. They all deserve kudos and it's nice to see people periodically praise them.

    I second tractorking too, it's perfectly possible to enjoy more than one game, they all have their merits.

    Vet since 2001 Here. The community is only growing since then and I have no fear that 10+ years from now we will all still be here should the Holy One permit. There is no limit for BIS and the software to come will surely surpass what is current. Operation Arrowhead is coming! (I AM SOOO EXCITED ABOUT THIS!) ArmA 2 is a success for sure for BIS. As for the community it is a success on a daily basis. Addons and missions being create constantly. BIS allows the community to create content that most others would call "DLC" and charge you for. As of the latest 1.05 beta (1.04.60000) I am hard pressed to find any bugs or have any crashes. Bad Press comes only from those that do not know that BIS stands behind their products and fixes them. The Bad press is temporary and harmless in the long term. The ArmA community is not going to die off. If it was it would have died over 7 years ago.

    Thanks W0lle for enforcing the thread topic.

    "other game talk"
    We could go on and on about why you can't compare ArmA 2 to other games etc. This is not a debate thread. I am sure there are plenty of other threads out there that will satisfy your need to complain and "try" to compair. Not this one, please. Thanks for moving on!



    Again Thanks to BIS and all the staff for creating this software.
