Hockeyguy 107 Posted March 17, 2013 You have to buy ARMA 2 Combined Operations which is ARMA 2 and ARMA 2:OA either off steam or on a disk. As for DayZ Mod, its free. :) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Stoned Wolf 491 Posted March 17, 2013 (edited) You can technically use Arma 2 Free in conjunction with the paid Arma OA, however it may not work as well. Otherwise you can either buy the combined operations pack from the Bohemia website or from Steam at a $20 USD fee. Then download DayZ commander and you're good!

The Stoned Wolf 491 Posted March 17, 2013 Thanks, also do you know any one who can help get use to the game or something?I'd suggest looking up a guide if you must. The controls can take some time to get used to, but it's better to discover the actual mechanics on your own. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

THE_BURNDOWN 27 Posted March 17, 2013 If you get the game working, I suggest you to go through some of Arma's 2 Boot Camp missions for learning basic controls and how to fly stuff, quickly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
