[Armadyl 3]

Hello i have just spend 20 dollars on arma 2 oparrowhead just to play this mod and have downloaded the free version of arma2...will my graphic be as bad as the free version of it or will it be like the full version of arrowhead i downloaded (which i payd for just to play this mod i repeat)?

[Tweakie 199]

Chernarus is a arma 2 map...so bad graphics.

Maybe you will have some good texture skins from arrowhead.

Why didn't you just buy combined operations and you get everything?

didnt want to spend 10 extra dolllars on something for no reason...now will you answer question please?

[Armadyl 3]

so basicly im going to have to spend another 20 dollars...just to try this mod...?

[SmashT 10907]

Texture quality for most of the map including roads, signs, buildings and so on are lower in the free version. Here is a comparison:

is there any way around this?

Pay for the paid version?

[Armadyl 3]

i mean like....copying the map file over from payd version?

[Armadyl 3]

if thats allowd i mean....

[lovetocamp 1]

No, stop being a cheap tightwad and just pay the extra $10.

Plus you shouldn't buy the game just for the mod. Arma 2 itself is great.

[Armadyl 3]

its not an extra 10 dollars it would be extra 20 dollars............

[AwesomeLemon 14]

It's $30 for the Combined Operations pack, which has both ARMA 2 and Operation Arrowhead. It would have been alot easier to just get CO entirely than pirating a cheap copy.

[Armadyl 3]

Ok first thing first...it wasnt a copy, and it wasnt pirating. I downloaded the FREE FTP VERSION FROM WEBSITE secondly they are both 20 dollars seporate and i bought Covert Operations for 20 dollars.

I thought I already did.

And yes, you will have to spend another 20 dollars, if you had done your research you would only have to spend an extra 10 dollars.....your mistake. Even then, ghillie and camo suits will be low res textures, since they are part of the DLCs.

Or just suck it up, and wait for the standalone?

Covert Operations... what is this I don't even?

If you download and install steam, combined operations is 30 USD.

Even then, most of the player skins are from BAF and PMC.

As i explained....serveral times....i have already bought covert operations so there is no use of buying combined....so it will cost me 20 dollars more (as the regular version is 20 seporate)

[speca 193]

wut...?

[Zeppa 562]

I did the same as you(AO+arma2free). And I woudnt bother to buy it "again" because this mod, only to gain better textures. I would wait for the standalone alpha.

You will do just fine with low textures... at least I have.

your anal as hell mate...

[MOS182 63]

You could have bought CO instead of OA, for me they're the exact same price but I already had ARMA II full version so I just needed OA.

if your graphic are graphic then look up puuting your dayz on a ramdisk
