maleitch 14 Posted June 10, 2012 Why does every install mention running both ARMA2 and OA? Is the original ARMA2 required or not? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Maca (DayZ) 769 Posted June 10, 2012 The backpacks that are used come from OA and the map from Arma II.......So you need the 2 games. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Legacy (DayZ) 1091 Posted June 10, 2012 Arma II (Free or Retail) is required. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jonaswashe 7 Posted June 10, 2012 Maleitch, this thread should be helpful:http://dayzmod.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=9210&highlight=%2420Arma 2 is required but there are ways to use Arma 2 Free (lo res graphics), or the Arma 2 demo, for a total cost of $20 for OA, though, for most people the additional $10 required to buy Combined Operations on Steam makes it worth spending the $30 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stilton 14 Posted June 10, 2012 Arma 2: CO is Arma 2 + OA..That's why its called combined operations,combined meaning.. 2 things together.Unless i missunderstood what you were referring to as 'shitty info' Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
