Do you like the ArmA2 OA box art?

[Wolfstriked 11]

I like the look of more soldiers.With just one its too super soldier like IMO.

I find it funny how Navarre sells "Arma II" and "Arma 2 - Combined Operations" at the same price :)

Here's what I think the cover should be. Took me aboue 17 days to make this. See its got action, you see the joy and horror in their faces, I've got the new top-sceret camoflage going. You can almost "hear" the battle... pew pew pew pew!!!!

Sorry if it's a little too graphic for some.

we have a winner! :D

the german copy looks much better. it still has a little eye catch, but its not slapping you in the face with mr screamy and his skul glove! ...and a muzzleflash that would shame call of duty

German copy is 100x better than the "EVERYONE BE SILENT!!!" version

German cover is nice and sober + big hints at OFP (Operation Arrowhead + point at camera).

What I like about it is that the guy feels like he's THINKING before shooting = it's a lot more what the game is like.

Hence, the crowd that will buy it will get a better sense of what they will get, avoiding disappointments afterwards if they thought it was an action shooter.

In any case, any cover with a guy shutting his mouth has my vote.

Only the ground at the bottom of the cover needs some color grading I think to blend better with the rest of the picture.

Except for the US flag in the COmbined arms, both are really nice.

I change my vote from "I don't care" to the one with the US flag on the front and jpinard's drawing on the back.

Yes I agree. I think it should show what this game is actually about, rather than making it look like an Action Shooter cover like COD or something.

[StealthSilver 10]

To me, it seems like there is too much going on, and not enough color differentiation. While the greens / beiges fit the theme, they are too "camouflaged" on a shelf. I think that BI could learn from Rockstar when it comes to creating striking designs that really "pop out" off the shelf!

I don't like it.

I would prefer an Ingame image instead. And there are better ones for a cover.

It would give a much more personality to the game.

I hate these stupid real pictures. Reminds me Dragon Rice's typology..

[Laqueesha 474]

Look on the bright side, at least it isn't as bad as this one.

Now that's original.

[bravo 6 0]

This is the best option so far.

What graphics package did you use for that one ?

PS I voted neutral - I will buy it no matter what was on the cover and can take or leave what I have seen so far. Nothing compares to the original OFP box because of the memories it stirs up. Try playing Demon Cleaner's Domination Everon for a trip down memory lane.
