Serova (DayZ) 174 Posted October 27, 2013 Nobody knows, no matter what they tell you. It could release tomorrow, it could release in 2014. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mos1ey 6301 Posted October 27, 2013 I'd probably buy ArmA II, but I'm impatient... xD If you can wait and save your money then you might as well do that. If you really want to play right now, then go ahead and buy ArmA. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SomebodyEpic 87 Posted October 27, 2013 Arma 2 is awesome so... Both. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fruit_loop87 21 Posted November 5, 2013 I would get Arma 2 because remember that when the standalone does come out it isn't a complete game their wont be transport and a whole new set of bugs, alpha will be full of crazy bugs. Ill get the mod if I was you it still has lots of bugs but it is part if the joy of dayz. O and use the arma training for flying and getting used to the game don't want to waste hours of work for you to crash and burn Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hosty 647 Posted November 5, 2013 (edited) I'd wait for SA.The mods for Arma 2 are in chaos and it's really not how it used to be. Edited November 5, 2013 by Hosty Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
voddler (DayZ) 367 Posted November 5, 2013 If you like a fun military simulator with amazing addons/mods, I'd buy Arma 2 combined operations.. There are lots of fun things to do and of course there are still serious servers around. I don't like ArmA 3 because of the futuristic theme, it's just that much of a letdown I probably won't play it unless they implement modern vehicles by default without mods. Tho, if you don't have enough for SA when it comes out I'd wait. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mr Nasty 1023 Posted November 5, 2013 In case you havent read all the posts above and skipped to the bottom - Might as well wait for the standalone at this point. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
doser 0 Posted November 5, 2013 (edited) Best to wait at this point. Save your money for the standalone. Arma II is still pretty pricey for an old game :P / I really want to get into Day Z too, but the standalone will be out soon. The standalone is gonna have less kill on sight and bring back cooperation and comms... Also people won't be able to hack anymore.

fubar_in_pittsburgh 409 Posted November 5, 2013 I asked this same question a year ago when SA was going to come out Winter 2012/2013, so, no, don't wait. Esp because Arma 2 CO is pretty cheap and a ok game even without zombies (an ok game even without zombies, said the guy who owns every f'n game on Steam with Z or Dead in the title) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
C h r i s 28 Posted November 7, 2013 I'd get Arma2 and enjoy the DayZ mod. We've been waiting for the standalone for a long time now, even if rocket said it'll be out next week I'd presume it'll be postponed for another 6 months. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
