m241shotk1ll 10 Posted May 29, 2011 So this is my first Arma game, I have a few questions hopefully someone can answer them, 1. A lot of people still play the game multiplayer wise? 2. When I put in the game to download it, what should be the first thing I do? 3. Did Arma2 PR ever happen? Can't find it on the net :confused: 4. Seems hard to download mods and add them in, any good websites I can check out to see how it is done? Thanks in advance Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If so will it direct me to where I have to go to download them? Also is all the multiplayer AI or can it be PVP? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JojoTheSlayer 35 Posted May 30, 2011 On question 1. Once you get used to the game and if you like it. Thats the time where you should be looking for a group, Clan or tournament that suit your gaming style. Its there you will find the most enjoyable multiplayer experience with like minded people. You basically have everything from PvP to PvE and from hardcore realism to lightcore just for fun stuff and so on. There are also some groups that are heavy into some bigger mods like wwii or Vietnam. Just naming a few of the ones with TS3 I like: PvP: Charlie Foxtrot. ACEmod: 506th Div cool missions and stuff: Kellys Heros Always seem to have members on: 7th Cav. (Even though their Ts can be a little Xbox like :) at times. No offense.)

Any good servers you know of that you can direct me too? These guys run a great server, very friendly :) Cerberus 5 -C5- When in the MP Gamespy server browser, click the 'filter' button and type: C5 into the first field and click ok. Then join the 'Cerberus5' server... but do check out many of the other servers, see which one/s suit you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
