M O N S T E R 599 Posted August 22, 2012 (edited) Would you like to help test or wait for a polished version to come out? It's not a hard choice to make.-MONSTER Edited August 22, 2012 by M O N S T E R Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IIII_joshua 16 Posted August 22, 2012 I got it during the steam sale and have no regrets.I'm not sure what the price is now.. but if it's cheap then it's worth considering. I would say wait but I have no idea what the timeline for the standalone is.Honestly ARMA 2 would have to be really really cheap for me to buy it again. $10-15 for combined ops. I would not pay over $20.If it's not cheap and you still want to buy it I'd suggest considering the ARMA free + arrowhead option. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dgenerate 7 Posted August 23, 2012 Wait. The game is incredibly frustrating right now between the bugs and the crap mechanics. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Never 237 Posted August 23, 2012 (edited) Well do you want:A ) A broken hackfest of a mod that may be a gaping hole into your computer (see GUID thefts etc) with an aggressive mentally retarded player community and diminishing support,OR:B ) A hopefully less broken standalone ALPHA (big cos this forum loves that word) with slightly less hackers but DOGS in it?

Zombie Jesus 723 Posted August 23, 2012 how long untill the standalone?Most likely November, possibly longer though. The alpha is hopelessly broken but still can be very fun, hacking is a problem but for your first week or so who cares if you die after finding a makarov. If you do not mind spending what it costs right now to play a testing alpha that has some significant bugs but is still fun where you have a good chance of death by hacker, then snatch it up and help test the game. If you are going to be upset that you "paid" to play Dayz and then had to pay again or if you can not handle some hacker getting a cheap kill on you after being alive for weeks, wait until the standalone.
