Where/how/when to buy ARMA2:OA?

Recommended Posts

But will they ever remove it all together as BIS will? I know which I prefer.

Of course, he even said so in the post.

I think Defunkt was saying that Bad Company 2 won't have the DRM removed all together, whereas BIS games eventually do.

Yes, it is quite possible there will be some more options to buy the game in not too distant future.

Thanks for the confirmation - I'll keep looking. :)

* Arma 2: Operation Arrowhead comes with Securom on the disc and in some territories with optional online activation also for the DVD version (we intend to release DRM free update to the game in some of the future patches, as always)

* Arma 2 that is part of Combined Operations comes already patched up to DRM free version

Thanks! and can you confirm that the steam version of AO is securom free?

No Direct2Drive? They are my favorite.

I am pretty sure there will be Direct2Drive version of OA.

I can confirm that Steam version of Arma 2: Operation Arrowhead will be released without Securom.

Could anyone tell me how many activations we will get with the sprocket version (especially combined operations)?

If i'm correct it's 5 activations from different machines in 6 months. Am i right?

I'm looking for a wholesale company from UK/Germany for English boxed version. Does anyone have a contact? PM please.

Seems the pre-order is finally available in the Uk. amazon.co.uk

Ps: for Frenchies the cheaper way is to order from amazon.fr for once, amazon.de/uk are more expensive with shipment.

Steam: n/a yet

This sucks tbh.

I expect Steam delays right now for some reason...

Will I be able to install a boxed version and have it work with Arma 2 Steam (Integrate) or will it conflict, even if its basically a add on?

Or use sprocket so the most money goes to BIS! Paying for your patches ;).

Good idea.

Let's hope they'll fix the link for preordering "Combined operations" soon ...

Just pre-ordered on Sprocket since my DVD drive is borked and probably won't be fixed in time. Now... If only the 29th would get here sooner! :D

Another way to ensure this - buy 2 copies. I did :)

Finally found a store (online) in Australia.

http://ezyelectronics.com.au/catalog/product/view/id/217506/s/arma-2-operation-arrowhead/category/287/

Also found it available at play-asia.com

http://www.play-asia.com/paOS-13-71-7s-49-en-15-operation+arrowhead-70-3ufj.html

Could someone confirm that these are legit? The Aussie one doesn't even seem to have a pic of the box art yet...
