lev 21 Posted September 21, 2012 BIS doesn't usually do this but since they've gotten a lot more popular lately, perhaps they would like to offer preorder bonuses to reward old timer Arma players and entice new ones to commit? Some cool ideas for potential preorder bonuses: Steel Case Map of Limnos Postcards from pre-war-torn Limnos Arma themed lensatic compass (maybe replica of in-game version) Arma themed survival knife (not sure if this would be allowed but for a mature rated game, I don't think its too far fetched?) Arma themed safety goggles + earplugs Arma themed medkit Arma themed balaclava etc Post your ideas. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jubxxxjub 10 Posted September 21, 2012 I like the compass idea. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Covert_Death 11 Posted September 21, 2012 a "soldiers survival pack" would be kinda cool... include a map/compass/ and custom cantina ..... I would buy this package without hesitation Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
finguide 1 Posted September 21, 2012 I would appreciate a lot a large and detailed printed map of ingame map of Limnos. Would help a lot eg. to create missions and during flight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
liquidpinky 11 Posted September 21, 2012 Carrier Command has a nice soundtrack coming our way as part of the preorder. Maps of the islands would be nice though, I loves my Cherno map. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
f27sharps 1 Posted September 21, 2012 I prefer to have collector edition with metal box for example rather than preorder bonuses, especially digital bonuses :mad: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Arma themed safety goggles + earplugs Arma themed medkit Arma themed balaclava etc Post your ideas. That's a whole Collector's edition worth $200. :) Pre-order "Bonus" would be something like access to the Alpha demo. In short, for additional cost - anything you like. I'd appreciate if they truly assembled a Collector's edition, or something of a lower-tier like Deluxe with printed Lemnos/Stratis maps, original game soundtrack on a CD and the game itself.

Sounds like a few nice addition for the head prize in the limnosprizequest. i already have a med-kit + a signed helmet :) the problem is in the price of the items i guess.

rohan11221 1 Posted September 21, 2012 I wouldn't mind some sort of operational AT-4 or Javalin you know, nothing TO overboard just something to kill people with. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
onlyrazor 11 Posted September 21, 2012 I wouldn't mind some sort of operational AT-4 or Javalin you know, nothing TO overboard just something to kill people with. A pistol is more than adequate.

Ekko 1 Posted September 22, 2012 I either want a collector's edition or a digital copy, I dont want or need a physical copy, they are usually more expensive than digital ones and they take physical space... All I am saying is that having a physical copy is nothing special. Its all about the game, ingame. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
metalcraze 290 Posted September 22, 2012 Physical copies are cheaper than digital ones. Physical copy - you pay $50 for a game (making it cost something like $25) and a bunch of nice cool physical stuff Digital copy - you pay $50 for a game alone Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No idea why anyone would want their favourite game not in their firm grasp - you could even do all sorts of things with the CD... Oh. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nicholas 5 Posted September 22, 2012 I just want the ability to buy a map of Limnos/Stratis and a replica of the ingame compass to go along with it. I don't want a physical copy though, because it'll just sit on my shelf and collect dust (And take up space); just as all my other physical copies do.

A military-themed backpack if not military backpack, small basic first aid kit, map of Limnos, and a compass to use with the map of Limnos would be nice. Oh, and being able to help test the current build they have, I heard Community Alpha was gonna be for preorders anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
