[Uurastaja]

Rolf, noticed that just now. How rude, but yet so true.

Just started ArmA and liking it, I am looking forward to this. Even if I didn't want to play I'd buy it just because the company making it is Czech. W00t.

Just read another preview which said it's going to be about moral things as well, for example there was talk of a mass grave somewhere of massacred people etc. Also there was talk of a scene where you and your team are being captured by russians plus a scene where troops stormed a building and actually took prisoners Looks like there'll either be more scripting or more awesome functionality or maybe both. But I definitely like how it's becoming 'more personal'.

 

[dogbadger]

nice tag-line

ARMED ASSAULT II

this time....it's personal

It should be "The ArmA2 Thread". Devs repeatedly stated that it's not the short of Armed Assault, but the latin word "Arma"
