skorz3ny 1 Posted February 17, 2012 Hi, I'm new to this forum and I'm going to purchase Arma 2 especially for MP after playing Arma 2 Free for a while. Which Arma 2 has more players online right now, Arma 2 or Arma 2 Operation Arrowhead. Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sekra 10 Posted February 17, 2012 If you are buying just for MP then buy Arma 2: Combined Ops (lucky for you it seems to be on sale this weekend!). It has both games and a lot of mods and missions use resources from both games (they are combined into 1 game) so getting CO is your best choice. Especially with the sale when its cheaper than either game alone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
.kju 3242 Posted February 17, 2012 If you get CO (combined operations) you can play both. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tankbuster 1740 Posted February 17, 2012 You should get them both, known as Combined Operations for the best MP experience. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skorz3ny 1 Posted February 17, 2012 Thanks for replying. Just got ARMA 2 CO. I was searching on Steam, haven't realized that BI has its own store xD Great price, this should do the trick until Arma 3. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NeuroFunker 11 Posted February 17, 2012 arma 2 has lesser servers, but enough players. Arma2.ru PvP/PvE/Warfare are mostly full, also HG's Chernarus Life (GTA like type of mission) being played from 30 to 50 players. arma 2 operation arrowhead, has insane amount of servers. Most popular server is [urban life] Takistan life (GTA like type of mission). Usualy 40-50 players, you will never get bored there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FlibbertyJibbit 1 Posted February 18, 2012 You'll get bored if you don't like the Life games. You'll also get bored with the ammount of hackers that join. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
