I've seen tons of gameplay videos and it looks like ArmA II is possibly the closest thing to a difficult, realistic and authentic war experience out there. It's what Call of Duty Modern Warfare promised to be years ago, and what Battlefield 3 claimed to be. I'm honestly shocked with all the love for flight/train/city sims this forum has, the only true authentic fps game since the original Flashpoint is completely overlooked. Despite Flashpoint's success and obvious market, ArmA II just doesn't seem to have the momentum it deserves, it may be a year later but that's no reason for it to have fallen completely flat on its face.
I've noticed there is only a thread on this site for DayZ and ArmA 3! Yet this game has such amazing traditional content, while the campaign may be a little strange (personally I've gone through a whole mission and not even seen a single enemy yet
) it offers some of the best multiplayer on the market! I'd love for there to be a thread where people talk about something other than DayZ, and perhaps where people on this forum can arrange sessions together that involve Co-op vs. A.I. scenarios and/or the traditional player vs player.
Afterall ArmA II is basically Battlefield III with more thinking and skill required, so why this forum doesn't have an obvious hardcore following of the title is beyond me. I'd of thought that the fact there a lot of older gamers who are interested in more mature, thoughtful games would be spamming the forums with this!? Shame on you!
I personally did not spend £25 just to gain access to a free mod, I'd like to experience the entire package, so if anyone is up for it, or knows where to point anyone who's interested, do contribute!
Possibly one of the youngest forum members trying to get attention to a game like this while the older members spam DayZ, Battlefield and Call of Duty, surely it should be the other way around?
