craigsa 0 Posted February 3, 2016 Are there any sales coming up? Our currency has crashed and it's now unaffordable and I was hoping someone could tell me if there are any sales coming up? Many thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jackal326 1181 Posted February 3, 2016 It would make absolutely NO commercial sense for any company to advertise a sale before it starts. "Hey guys, you could buy this product for $40 today, or wait until next week and get it for $20!" So the short answer is, there probably will be a price reduction at some point in the future (probably around the release of the expansion), but I highly doubt anyone is going to have (or give out) advanced warning/notice.

First-this is in totally the wrong thread.Second- Steam auto-updates most games,not just Arma. Third-please do not make your first post here rude and in capital letters and do not link pointless videos to it. "Nobody on Steam can play Arma online"-Well you can't play Arma anywhere but Steam and many people play it online. I hosted a mission last night for example... And "Why won't Arma3 let me post a subject on the forum" Well I think your post answered that.But you could have simply contacted myself or another moderator for help in posting. And the game has not updated in several weeks since ver. 1.54 was released. So I would not consider that "every few days" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Many thanks There may be a sale when the expansion releases-I have no idea.Other than that,Steam often has a "spring sale" around march/april. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
L00ncan 1 Posted February 4, 2016 No updates, huh! the update list steam shows is endless for the month of January Battle eye anti cheat update on 28th Jan Audio & Weapon switching update on 26th Jan Apex Pre-Orders Visual Update 19th Jan Parallax Improvements, Font Changes 12th Jan the list goes on... Steam forces automatic updates now, each time you update you make the serverlist broke for the entire platform of users The list goes on & on and on, say what you will about me moderator but i just don't make facts to suit my reply unlike yourself, neither do i project my feelings so obtusely This isn't the 1st time i've launched steam to play on a server to find out Steam has automatically forced an update (against my will) for the 19th time this month making my Arma3 serverlist useless And i don't stand corrected, what the hell is in the point having a forum players can use for assistance when they can't post for assistance!!!

craigsa 0 Posted February 4, 2016 Thanks guys .....Yes. south Africa Our currency has crashed and it's really completely out of reach to purchase at this time. Not being cheap but it's almost a thousand bucks. I appreciate the feedback Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Steam forces automatic updates now, each time you update you make the serverlist broke for the entire platform of users Those are news, not game updates. The last actual updates were Jan 28th (Battleye), Dec 16th (Hotfix), Dec 3rd (Hotfix), and Dec 1st (Big update). So your problem with server list is something else. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ProfTournesol 956 Posted February 4, 2016 I'm surprized that the only Arma:Cwa version on sale is the Czeck version, not the standard one. I wanted to buy 10 keys but not Czeck ones. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
