rooniedoo 68 Posted August 15, 2013 Will there be a pre-ordering option for the SA, it wouldn't hurt to have a pre-order option. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PK Richie 507 Posted August 15, 2013 None of the ArmA series has pre-orders available, I can't see the SA being different.When it comes out, people will buy it regardless. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Welch (DayZ) 756 Posted August 15, 2013 None of the ArmA series has pre-orders available, I can't see the SA being different.When it comes out, people will buy it regardless.Well Arma 3's got Alpha and Beta. Those are copies that you can buy before the full release, at a discounted price, so I'd say it's better than pre-ordering.Same as Standalone, it'll be available for Alpha purchase which will be cheaper than the full-release. Plus you get to play early. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PK Richie 507 Posted August 15, 2013 The SA has already been confirmed as going the same route, It'll be released in an Alpha stage at a reduced price, then Beta with a price increase and then full RC at retail value.It's exactly how the ArmA series is released :) 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
m.w. vindicator 880 Posted August 15, 2013 Why would you want to pre-order something. Have you learned nothing from disaster's like Aliens Colonial Marines. Pre-ordering isn't a good option. The game is going to available on steam, you are going to get a copy. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GrumpyGat (DayZ) 497 Posted August 15, 2013 This isn't WarZ. Their not trying to take all your money before they even have stable game. They will likely release the alpha in batches to keep a tight watch on server load. Even if it comes out this month, its going to be a while before us normal folk get it into our hands. Be patent.. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rekli 995 Posted August 15, 2013 (edited) :/DayZ would be one of my exceptions to this because I trust Dean & Co will actually release a good game, but still leaving this here. Edited August 15, 2013 by RekliSnipez 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm just supporting other people who aren't able to comprehend the sentence. If you're just going to insult and criticize about it, it's better off not saying it at all. I'll just end that there.

But it's easy to understand, you don't have to make it dramatic by putting in "Translation". Oh, I rest ma case. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TIC 1050 Posted August 16, 2013 (edited) I'm not trying to be mean. But it's easy to understand, you don't have to make it dramatic by putting in "Translation". Oh, I rest ma case. I believe "dramatic" is the wrong term to use. Nothing's dramatic about "translation" .. From that point, it's dependant on perspective and that's how you handle the situation. Turning a helpful solution to a hostile situation is never key to submitting a post on the forums so think before you post. :) Edit; Forgotten to post anything related to the topic so pre-ordering in the Standalone wouldn't be really anything good since I believe buying a product should be equal to every consumer instead of having "benefits" Edited August 16, 2013 by TIC321 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
