So here is the situation. 1. I own Arma 2, but need arrowhead. Steam got a sale offer on arma 2 combined, or arrowhead alone. but i am fearing that having to combine a non steam arma 2 with a steam arma 2 DLC is a headache.... 2. i could buy arma 2 CO and forget about my retail Arma 2, but is that worth it so close to the release of the standalone?. and when should i expect the standalone, will that 13 Euro only give me 1 month of playtime before it releases, or 3 months?. The argument that i get a good game anyway is flawed, since i already got arma 2, and never plays the normal game, but i love the concept of DayZ and i played quite alot of WarZ, but i want DayZ since its a superior game in anyway, only thing holding me back is wasting money possibly. i been waiting on the standalone here in december, but now it seems to be TBA on release date. Thing is, you can't answer all of this, but what would you do, based on these dilemma's? Thank you Regards heindrik

Based on the comments here, and that the anticipation to try out DayZ other than watching video's of frankies on youtube, i bought it on steam for 50% and are finaly trying it out tonight. I bought the CO, i just dont want to fiddle around with combining non steam and steam versions. call it lazyness :-)

I did not mean like in getting pre-acces to the standalone, but that i would only "play" arma 2 CO with dayz mod for 1 month before switching to possibly new released Dayz standalone and paying again.

Hi there! I got a Arma 2 version from a digital download website. Can i just purchase Arma 2 Operation arrowhead on steam and then combine my non steam version with the Steam Arma Operation arrowhead?. Or should i buy the arma 2 operation arrowhead from a digital download website. then combine those 2 and then get DayZ? Im asking, since i dont wanna waste money on something that aint gonna work :P
