Placebo 29 Posted June 11, 2009 Yes and I believe yes but there is a limit on activations which you get increased by contacting support once you've used them up, as long as it's for legitimate reasons of course :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

thegunnysgt 1 Posted June 11, 2009 I live in the the US and I have already contact Sprocket on the release date and download of ArmA 2, they said soon, probably next week. The activations are limited, but like Placebo said you can contact their support and get more if you explain to them whats going on. Many of my friends had to do that and they got more activations. Any news on that upcoming press release about a US publisher and release date? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hoak 0 Posted June 11, 2009 I ordered original ArmA from Sprocket, it works fine, the DRM is tidy and not a hassle, if you run out of activations an email will take care of it. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
xxbbcc 6 Posted June 11, 2009 Sorry if this was asked already - will Sprocket have a download version for the US? I'd much prefer something that has no connection to Steam. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted June 11, 2009 Sorry if this was asked already - will Sprocket have a download version for the US? I'd much prefer something that has no connection to Steam. Anyone can download the sprocket version, no matter where you live. Just pay and you get it :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Baz 0 Posted June 11, 2009 I just went to the Gamestop the other day, and I found out that Arma 2 is going the be in their store on the 29th of June. So, I reserved a copy for $5.00 and I had some money today so I went to pre order my copy and Paid for it today. On the 29th I'll go to the store and pick it up. The store manager there also was a Arma fan and he told me his own copy was going to be one of those coming to the store. I can't wait! :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Placebo 29 Posted June 12, 2009 Any news on that upcoming press release about a US publisher and release date? Nothing, really quite ridiculous, we sent them the press release drafted from our end on Monday, just needed them to add their blurb and release and for some reason none of us know it's not released yet, now it's already leaked who the US publisher is :j::j::j::j::j: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BOTA:16 0 Posted June 13, 2009 On EB Games/Gamestop they have Arma II available for pre-order. They list the publisher as Got Game Entertainment. So yes the publisher has been "leaked". Placebo is just referring to the fact that GGE has yet to make an "official" announcement. Also they have no mention of Arma II on their website. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Binkowski 26 Posted June 13, 2009 Oh. Thank BOTA. Cleared that up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hoak 0 Posted June 13, 2009 I'm really sorry to hear that Placebo, if it's this Got Games Entertainment I would be sad to report no surpise, and I hope they, your PR Agency, and North American Agent whoever he (or she) may be do right by BI, exceed their reputations, and work so far on behalf of BI. :( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ilovebeer 0 Posted June 13, 2009 I kinda agree with you Hoak cause i have never heard of Got Games Entertainment and from the looks of thier games, i see why. I dont like them already for being late on their press release for their biggest and best game. Well looks like another Atari :( Maybe i will buy it from sprocket after all.

BOTA:16 0 Posted June 13, 2009 I really don't think it matters what publisher you buy from. Eventually all versions will be patched to be the same. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hoak 0 Posted June 13, 2009 I really don't think it matters what publisher you buy from. Eventually all versions will be patched to be the same. Exactly! I just think some people want to either get it soon as they can, and the some vendors meet that need better depending on where they are, and some need to pinch pennies and are look for the best price. Just a reminder: the topic post (first post page one) is kept up-to-date, with all known/announced retail options for North America (and some for Mexico as well)... :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ilovebeer 0 Posted June 16, 2009 Wow! Got Game Entertainment still has not announced ArmA II, it makes me wonder if it will be in store on the 29th still? ---------- Post added at 09:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:33 PM ---------- ok i just emailed Got Game Entertainment and they sent me an email back saying the game wont be released until around July 7th !!!!! :( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
madrussian 347 Posted June 16, 2009 I live in Indiana, USA. Just ordered my 505 copy from CD-Wow... well two copies actually. One for me and one for my buddy. Just because he is so cheap... And now he will have no excuse! Yep, nothing like in Christmas in June. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Richard Bruce Cheney 10 Posted June 16, 2009 I really don't think it matters what publisher you buy from. Eventually all versions will be patched to be the same. Although, don't steam versions of games use different patches, which arrive later than conventional DVD patches? At least that has been the case with a few games on Steam. Does this apply to other downloaded versions as well? I would rather have a DVD if this is the case, but if there is a downloadable version that can use the regular patches, I'm all over it! Does anyone know? :confused: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
snake eyes 0 Posted June 16, 2009 well since You could apply Retail patches to the Steam Version of Arma 1, i see no reason for it not to work fine with ArmA II.:) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
