Problem installing Arma 2: OA (steam)

Recommended Posts

I wanted to get back into arma 2 and arma 2:oa and I tried reinstalling it and Arma 2 and the beta version of arma 2:OA are working just fine but I tried downloading Arma 2:OA several times now and when the download is done, it isn't installed on my computer so I can't launch the game, it only gives me the option to install it. Can anyone help me please?

Thanks!

My Mcaffee placed the battleye setups and other files from battleye quarantaine because it says that it's a trojan horse. Should I trust these files?

I also run McAfee and had the same problem. I removed from quarantine and ran a full scan on the BattlEye, and the scan came up clean. Since the scan came out clean I believe the McAfee is using heuristics and detecting an unknown potential threat, therefore quarantining.

It was quarantining during download, install and game start. I turned of Real Time Scanning (RTS) and was able to get it downloaded, installed and game started. Then I turned RTS back on and had no problems since, except when my scheduled scans occur. It quarantines again, so after scheduled scans I have to remove from quarantine again.

Basically, with McAfee if you choose to trust (you decide), turn RTS off to get BattlEye installed. Then turn RTS back on (important). Check your quarantine files periodically, especially if you know a scheduled scan occurred. I haven't run into problems with the BattlEye since.
