Bacon1 10 Posted July 4, 2010 I have both games and I know I can combine them but does OA by itself include anything (islands, units etc.) from the original or is it all new stuff? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Beagle 684 Posted July 4, 2010 I have both games and I know I can combine them but does OA by itself include anything (islands, units etc.) from the original or is it all new stuff?Easy and short answer: NOUnits that were in ArmA II also got a rework to a higher standard (T-72 or BMP2 comes to mind), so it's in no way the same anymore...old maps are not included.

Bacon1 10 Posted July 4, 2010 So what you are saying is, it does include the old units but they are improved? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Beagle 684 Posted July 4, 2010 So what you are saying is, it does include the old units but they are improved?No old units in OA. No russians no USMC and all UN-CDF are new units. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

biggerdave 56 Posted July 4, 2010 If you're asking for technical reasons, then other than a few (modified) base classes (UAZ_Base, T72_Base, BMP2_Base etc.) and some weapons (AK74, AKM, RPK etc.) there's no common classes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bacon1 10 Posted July 4, 2010 One last question, if I install both games will the content of both then show up in the mission editor in OA? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

madrussian 347 Posted July 4, 2010 Seems like there are some specific civs from base ArmA2 accessible in OA in the "Special" category. Probably a couple of specific units they needed for the OA campaign. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
