god dam it make it easier

Seriously. I am new to the Arma series and wow is this shit complicated. I know how to play games, but I am not familiar with editing files, and placing folders and doing alot of crazy shit just to play a game.

Just try and go play Arma OA, with custom missions that require 12 mods that you don't even know how to launch. This shit has been a major headache for me. This is 2012, shouldn't there just be an easy button?

No sorry, its a great way to weed out the idiots..:) That's the problem with you young whippersnappers, you want shit handed to you will little or no effort. Suck it up, if you think installing is hard, wait till you play the game..

If you're having trouble post in the troubleshoot part of the forums, people here are willing to help, from what I've seen.

Once to setup a game we had to pick our sound card from a long list and then set it's IRQ, DMA and channel. Nobody complained. Today people are just braindead

You're an idiot. I am 27 years old. Weeding out idiots is making a complicated install and forcing people to use help threads to get their game going?

I've played the game. For days on end. Installing was alot harder, than actually playing.

Are you using the six launcher? Makes playing DayZ easy mode!

[BanditoTheBandit 23]

If you just follow the instructions all over the place, its pretty simple. Now if you think oh i can do this without reading stuff. Well you are wrong

To bad six launcher is a pile of {redacted} it's a pain to use.

I use it because its easy for me to use, not install...

I am honestly speaking more on behalf of the mod system for how things are done in such for Arma 2, and Operation Arrowhead. The system could be alot more user friendly and easy to setup.

Instead, I have to google setup and help guides to correctly place files to play a game. Some poeple may like this, but all it is, is wasted time playing with files when they could of made a, click this button for auto install.

That's what I expect when I pay for something. I really hope Arma 3 makes the system a little less of a headache. I would rather play the game, then spend a week reading guides to figure out how to install and launch mods and how to keep things organized.

It's a major pain.

Hence, the Sixluancher option. If you have Arma CO already installed, its like 2 clicks to install the mod.

This just makes it more humiliating that you cant find out how to install it :D

Its Alpha, dont expect a completely laid out mod with installers etc.

Calling someone an Idiot when you cant figure out what they easily can is.. Idiotic. Besides, I had a little smiley face next to it, dont be so grumpy.

even if they are big files compared too. But i rather see it done in the way of warcraft 3 custom maps. Click it and starts to download.

The hardest part for me was actually that damn beta patch. 1 mistake and you can do a clean reinstall for arma

[expendable (DayZ) 6]

Well...

Install arma, launch it all. Exit out.

Install six updater.

Launch six updater, choose to install.

Launch dayz from the six updater, choose server when you're in game.

I have helped a few friends do that same process. Six updater makes it easy.

I have the game installed. Lol@ all of you not reading my post about me ALREADY playing. I was talking more in general of just OA and Arma mods. If you would have read, and not jumped at the chance to sound intelligent which you failed at.

You may have noticed I had already said I was playing the game, hence.. it's installed. :o

[AlfalphaCat 66]

How hard is it to create some folders in the OA directory and just unzip the files into there?

If you own a PC, you should at least learn something about how they work. Or maybe you should just buy a Mac.
