Yes I am new to Arma2 OA

Recommended Posts

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

2. no idea what you mean

3. it is due in summer

4. there was some simple guide on the forums. use the search function

Thanks for the reply, For #2 I meant is there like game updates or anything like that? 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?

Hello and welcome to the community!

Seems hard to download mods and add them in, any good websites I can check out to see how it is done?

Heres a small tutorial I put together on how to install a mod after you have downloaded it.

Any questions just ask.

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.)

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.
