Arma 2 + OA Demo possible?

Recommended Posts

Hey, I am wondering if it's possible to download the ARMA 2 FREE then download the Demo of OA.

If I do that, will I lose content which will do so I can't play the DayZ mod?

Would be lovely if that worked :).

I believe you can use the arma II free and the purchased OA to get it for only $20. You just have to set up the shortcuts differently and it should work. I haven't tried it myself, but I've heard it works.

You can play ArmA Free for free.

You can play DayZ for free if you buy Operation Arrowhead.

win win.

There is a FREE version of Arma II out there as a TRIAL version and will NOT WORK for DayZ. Which I assume is what you are asking about.

You probably saw this thread when I accidently clicked enter and published it hehe :) I have now edited with further details what I am curious about :)

I'd still buy Arma2 Combined Operations on steam for 30$ to avoid any problems...

And it's not even $30, it went on sale for $23.99 today.

If you purchase just Arrowhead and use the Arma II free version, you can play DayZ, however there is quite a number of graphical overlay bugs and issues that will get in the way. However it is playable and you are more then welcome to do so.
