That was when i just spent 50$ and trying to justify it.. Look at the numbers arma2 =dead... more people play bf2!

OpFp2 is a killer game on annihilation mode. It is fun and i can play it for hours against other real players with ai in there as well.Arma2 was not for me.I purchased arma2 expecting big online battles with pvp,and that will never happen.Arma2 was talked about alot....now you hear nothing about it.No one on my xfire even plays arma2 anymore.Everyone is playing OpFp2 or the older games PR,BF2,and some cod games.IMHO arma2 is the epic failure and OpFp2 is what arma2 should have been.Instead every arma2 server you get on theres 32 players running around like wtf are we suppose to do.Arma2=Epic fail OpFp2=good game for all types of players.of course the arma fanboys will hate to hear there game is dying. :P

yes PVP is dead

it has the option for players to vote

we have a hold server up all the time dedicated and noone ever joins it..... i put myself in it when im busy and come back still alone.... It is HOLD 24/7 and can have 64 players..... id love to get it populated but some maps i think are restricted to 32 players and 40 players... still its up all the time and you can vote on which hold mission you want to play.... the ip is 64.85.160.71 :2302 It is called HOLD PvP {S8G}clan any one is invited. if people dont start playing on it we are gonna take it offline. Its been up for a week after endless time of me trying to figure out trying to get the missions onto the server only for it to be dead all the time. So i encourage people to come play and try to populate it. The server is located in michigan for those who are wondering about ping issues. Thanks and i hope i see you on it.

search in filters for HOLD,PvP,{S8G} clan.. we got a 64 dedi server that runs hold missions only :)

its in US michigan

Got the server up and running its a 64 player dedicated server playing hold missions.. PvP for all those who want that style of playing... Come check it out. Thanks :) just in filters search s8g

We've just set up a dedicated server wanting to play the hold maps. Its a 64 player server,and its called S8G Hold Server...plan and simple. But it says creating when i go to join in,and it doesnt do anything but says "wait for host" Now what do i have wrong? I think it will be great to get the server going.Its the largest hold server that i have seen. Thanks to anyone who can help. -Josh

thank you guys :)

yeah i knew that about the PW, ok thx for the help man.

well thx dorph for at least mentioning it. but ive emailed the server cnfg to a friend and hes going over it.

Seems good to me.... this game will not fail.. It will be one of the most played games for a very long time. Watch and see.

alot of people dont agree with me not liking the coop,so i play the hold matches and it is very worth my $$ and it is truly a great game all together.If you dont like the ai, play some MP on some hold missions. PvP. This game is awesome.At first i didnt know what to think,but i love it the best game ive played. :)

also, if you get behind the enemy lines and up on a wooded hillside there are plenty of places to hide...Just finished a hold match went 40 and 4 and i was just a rifleman with a m107..........not a ghillie suite so maybe you need to i dunno hide by a tree at a distance... :P

sweet........will check it out... the 32 player hold servers are awesome im sure 50 will be great also. :)
