skillfultree 10 Posted October 9, 2011 Is arma 2 open world? like far cry 2. or is it level by level? and should I get arma 2 or wait for 3? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hellfire257 3 Posted October 9, 2011 The game is what you make it to be. It can be both open world and level by level depending on how the mission has been made. I'd suggest you get ARMA2:Free and play around with the editor to get a feel for the game hobby. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skillfultree 10 Posted October 9, 2011 What I make it to be? dosnt it have a singleplayer or something? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ast65 10 Posted October 9, 2011 (edited) Ye sure, it has single player mode with campaigns, single missions, tutorials etc. And last but not least the game has an editor where you can build custom missions, so this 'what you make it to be'. Meanwhile there´s a ton of user made missions and addons available, so you will never run out of new content for free :) Edited October 9, 2011 by @ST Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tonci87 163 Posted October 9, 2011 Arma is a great game with almost infinitive possibilities. Look here www.armaholic.com Tons of user Made MP and SP Scenarios, Campaigns, Weapon-, vehicle-, unitmods, Islands. And all for free! Be sure to buy the Combined Operations package.

Undeceived 392 Posted October 9, 2011 Do your homework on this game and you'll be rewarded. What Hellfire meant is that you will have to invest some time into the game, learning how it works, how to play it, even how to install some mods. Other games of course are more user friendly. Arma isn't so accessible at first. But after you learn the game, I'll promess, you will receive such a deep and atmospherical gaming experience which the other games can't give you!

colosseum 34 Posted October 10, 2011 (edited) Once you learn how to play ArmA and get past the general derpitude of the action menu and some of the animations, it becomes very fun and a much cheaper (and IMO better) alternative to Michael Bay-produced Call of Duty games etc. ArmA requires patience, cooperation and being careful overall. It's one of those games where you can't expect it to take care of you. Edited October 10, 2011 by Colosseum Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
