I need a few suggestions

[Ratsmon 131]

As you all may know, the SA will come out fairly soon as rocket said it will come out before 2013, but I'm thinking of buying Arma 2 Combined Operations right now, due its on discount. Its 12€ and in our country that's a fairly good price! But then again, if I buy this version, I wasted my money and the SA comes out and I cant buy the SA and everyone will be playing the SA...

Pros:

I get Arma 2 CO

I can play already and not wait till the holidays pass

Super mega fun enjoyment

Cons:

I waste my money, and I cant buy the SA

I dont like Arma 2 Co, I waste the money on a game I dont like and I cant play DayZ due noone playing the mod on that game.

Basicly, I need your suggestions, please D:?

My opinion is to wait till the SA, buy the game and play it :P

If money is that tight, I would say wait.

Your money would not be wasted if you bought ArmA2/CO because there is so much content available and the DayZ Mod will have a long life, imho.

ArmA 2 is fun to play anyways. When I'm bored sometimes I start up operation arrowhead and play around in the Armory where you can unlock everything by completing challenges. There's also a campaign of missions I believe.

Then again maybe it would be best to save up money, if that's what you think then go with it, just a bit of waiting left.

I'm not some kind of hobo who cant spare 12€ for a game, no... NO!....

I'm just, like, paranoid.. If you know what I mean. I am very carefull upon buying a game, 3 days before I decide I buy a game, my thoughts begin to make me unsecure. I think to myself: Do I realy like that game? What if it doesnt work? What if my PC cant handle it? Will I be wasting money? That's just how paranoid I am upon buying one. Now, I'm not an adult and I dont earn my own cash, so that makes it harder for me due I think what my parents would think if I waste that money for nothing, and then how angry they'd get if I'd ask for more cash to buy more games, get what I mean? Its a hard decision to make..

FYI off topic: I'm not a little brat that is full of it, just wanted to point that out.

EDIT: By more games I meant the standalone :I

Get it, looks like SA may be delayed and the SA won't have everything like Wasteland or 2017 or whatever so people will still be playing this when the SA comes out I reckon.

[Ratsmon 131]

I see your point but.. When the SA comes out finaly, it will be in alpha and it wont cost that much, and rocket will probably abandon the mod for Arma 2 so less and less players will be playing the mod rather then the SA. Do you see my point?

SA will be cheap in Alpha, and then as we play Arma 2 CO mod DayZ, it will get left over and when the SA gets expensive(I.E gets in Beta and more) I wont be able to buy it. So it's probably better to wait for the SA Dont you think?
