GameFly: Attack! Save up to 75% on Bohemia PC Games - Ends Thursday.‏

When is the sa released?

Quote from teo829 : I just bought the Arma II Combined Operations for $24 yesterday to play the popular game DayZ. However, I regret making the purchase. The game is mediocre with its slow pace action and you will literally feel lonely playing this game. Save your money and buy Battlefield III or even Left4Dead II, those are the superior games. You have been warned.

LOL, just LOL. You obviously havent played the game or learned how to play.

Checkout some gameplay from some vets on Twtich.tv, the game is popular and popular for good reason.

Anyone else stuck on the Securom "Serial key not in Database" crap after buying this? I got through Arma II, but Securom won't "activate" Combined Assult.

Quote from CrunchBerries : Yes. These will activate on Steam.

If I could thumb-down your comment...

Looks like several of us are having this issue, only with the Operation Arrowhead portion. I've sent an email to GameFly and Bohemia Games for help, we'll see what they say.

Looks like at least one person had success patching the game manually. Might try that tonight when I get home.

Quote from Rawimpact : Arma 2 is already free...

How so?

I wrote to support, here is the answer they gave me. Worked like a charm!

We apologize for any activation troubles you have had with Arma II: Operation Arrowhead.

We offer the patch in the GameFly Client. This patch removes the activation process. Please see the following:

After installing the game, the “Play Now” button will become a “Download Patch” button. Then when you click it, it will start downloading the patch. Once it is done, the button will change to “Install Patch,” which will run the patch file. Then it will become “Play Now” again.


(here are the instructions they gave me to do a manual update - I didn't try these since the other way worked just fine).

Bohemia Interactive also offers the patches for your game. Please see those patches on their patches page here: http://www.arma2.com/supply/game-updates

google is your friend...

Rather than be snarky and unhelpful, you could actually do some research yourself.

ARMA II is free, ok, but CO/Operation Arrowhead is not; this is pretty much the only reason people get this because it's required for Day Z.

Feel free to prove me wrong with a link.

doesn't the free version of Arma have lower res textures as well?
