thedudesam 10 Posted April 7, 2011 (edited) I have ARMA2 DVD version, and only ARMA2. I heard Reinforcements contains a light version of OA (OA minus the missions and scenarios). Ok so here's my questions. With just ARMA2 and RFT will i be able to use mods made for OA? Does RFT include the maps OA brings for use in the editor? Does RFT include the new units, vehicles and weapons from OA? Thanks. Edited April 7, 2011 by thedudesam Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ArmAriffic 10 Posted April 7, 2011 you need OA for RFT im pretty sure, A2 does not matter (i think, but not 100% sure) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zipper5 74 Posted April 7, 2011 Reinforcements already comes with OA "Lite", in that you get all of OA's content apart from the missions and the campaign. So long as the mods you're looking at using are not dependent on the missions or the campaign from OA, then they should work with Reinforcements. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

royaltyinexile 175 Posted April 7, 2011 (edited) No requirement to own Arma 2 (A2) No requirement to own Operation Arrowhead (OA) Arma 2: Reinforcements (RFT) is a standalone product The RFT content includes:all of the content from Private Military Company DLC (PMC) all the content from British Armed Forces DLC (BAF) OA engine and multiplayer (MP) compatible content (non-Lite), minus the campaign & scenario playable-content a unique CD key for MP a warm, comforting feeling of ownership Zipper5 said: Reinforcements already comes with OA "Lite", in that you get all of OA's content apart from the missions and the campaign. To clarify Zipper's point just a touch - there is no texture capping; it's not 'lite' in the same sense as 'BAF Lite' or 'PMC Lite', which exist for multiplayer (MP) compatability. Quite simply, an owner of RFT has all the necessary MP compatible content from OA and onwards, at the best possible standard.

Operation Arrowhead 3. DLC's PMC/BAF Is this correct or will I need to purchase both Combined Operations and Reinforcements ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Inkompetent 0 Posted April 18, 2011 You will need to purchase both ArmA2 and Reinforcements if you want the full package (minus OA singleplayer-stuff). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I hope this will not create version mismatch. I mean the other people who bought DLC certainly don't suffer version mismatch. Anyone can help Colt on his issue?

That guy 10 Posted April 20, 2011 VOTE SOB FOR PRES or he'll have you bombed :p but seriously, some military maps are not "precise" enough to be used for grid coords artillery or airsupport, so they say "not to be used for targeting" or something like that. its usually larger scale maps like the 1:250,000 or such Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
