I'm pretty new to this mod. I started playing a few days ago. I am one of those that bought ARMA2 just to play this mod. It's amazing. I love open world games to begin with so the size of this map and the freedom to do what you want pushes all the right buttons for me. I've tried my hand at simple survival, banditry, carebearing, and simply watching the activity in Cherno and Elektro with a pair of binoculars. It's all great. I am looking forward to the future of this mod. When the time comes that Rocket feels the product is worth charging for I'll gladly be handing over some of my cash. Work like this deserves support. It is so much better than the majority of swill the major publishers are churning out.
