Simon C 0 Posted June 7, 2009 It's out in Germany, although a search probably would have shown this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zipper5 74 Posted June 7, 2009 Yes, it's been out since the 29th of May. But only in Germany. Non-Germans have been getting the game only by buying the German version either in downloadable or boxed form. It's released in Europe on the 19th of June, and will be released on Steam ten days after that (29th of June). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mark 1 Posted June 7, 2009 cool, thought it might have been a german thing and i search google for it on worldwide search but nothing appeared. Does anyone know if you buy the German version does it have english option in it or is it german speaking only? If it does have english may buy it online now - which leads me to ask are there any german sites where you can buy it to download? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If it does have english may buy it online now - which leads me to ask are there any german sites where you can buy it to download? You can get it from Metaboli; http://armedassault2.gamesplanet.com/armed-assault-ii-spiel-peter-games.html?affilie=armedassaultinfo I bought it there myself two days ago, you pay via Paypal and get to download the game. About 2-12 hours later they send you the CD-Key via email. You can convert the game to english by creating a mod folder and putting three english language-files in there and simply adding the line "-mod=foldername" to the desktop shortcut. I have the english PBO-files although Im unsure wether BIS approve of spreading them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There is an English translation mod but it's not perfect and it may cause trouble with the copy protection countermeasures. The German version will get different language options when the game gets a unifying patch for all areas. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mark 1 Posted June 7, 2009 thats really interesting im not sure whether to do it or not though....have you guys found the enlish mod okay? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bloodofthedragon 0 Posted June 7, 2009 Do it, you won't regret it. I've been playing with the english mod for a few days now and like Celery said, it's not perfect but it's good enough for those of us that don't speak German. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Deadfast 43 Posted June 7, 2009 There is an English translation mod but it's not perfect and it may cause trouble with the copy protection countermeasures. The German version will get different language options when the game gets a unifying patch for all areas. It's supposed to be fine as long as you use it as a mod (create a modfolder) ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
