greenstar105 0 Posted January 23, 2015 If Arma II --> should I get Combined or Complete?I do think that the Standalone has potential, but I think it would be boring to play at its current phase due to lack of items etc. But I would like to know so I can make a purchase soon.

gibonez 3633 Posted January 23, 2015 You should buy arma 2 for ACE mod. However I doubt there are that many active servers still playing it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But Having played the SA for over 1000hrs I can to you I love it. I dont have a top end comp and it still runs fine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In my opinnion, only buy Arma if you intend to play other things then DayZ mod aswell. Arma is an amazing game and the possibilities in there, are near endless.If you fell in love with DayZ and you dont want to play other Arma mods/missions, invest in the standalone. You are right that right now, the standalone's gameplay is limited, compared to the mod, but in the end, the standalone will be a whole other beast, much more complex and complete, as a game, then the mod could ever hope to be. The mod is also still in alpha stage and it will never go beyond that, updates are extremly slow, because its run by community developers, who update the game for free. I hope you can use my opinnion to something mate :) Best of luck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

doctorbadsign 645 Posted January 23, 2015 I'd say get Arma 2 as it is currently a better game, both for the mod and for itself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hi Im Brad 57 Posted January 23, 2015 why not just buy arma 3?????????? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bororm 1156 Posted January 23, 2015 Besides the lack of vehicles/long term persistence the SA actually arguably has more content at this point than the mod (it definitely has more items). At least, since the last time I played the mod any ways (not talking mods of the mod). Of course, vehicles and persistence are pretty big. But they're both implemented in a very basic state already.

blaf 63 Posted January 23, 2015 I prefer DayZ standalone. And if you would like to do some ArmA, then i would recommend buying ArmA 3 as well :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LoveAffair 329 Posted January 23, 2015 Buy the Standalone and just wait till Arma2 Combined Operations goes on sale for $ 3.99 , like it usually does every 2-3 months. Then you can have both. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
