RKSL-Rock is working on Eurofighter Typhoon for ArmA2/OA. It looks so good I had to post some screenshots here.

Is the Citadel going to be up running OA? If so, anyone going to be playing this weekend?

[Strango]

My copy just came in the mail today. Rock just got his off of Steam. We should be able to get the Citadel up and going without too many issues hopefully, although I haven't looked to see what kind of missions we've got by default to look at.

I just received my copy today as well (my brother has it to).

"Hey community, sorry about ArmA2 and Chernarus - it really wasn't that great. But we're going to make it up to you by releasing the same game with an island that doesn't suck, with a multitude of vehicles and FLIR (that were just ported from VBS by the way) that should have been in the original ArmA2. And best of all, it's going to be standalone and not cost as much as the original ArmA2!"

Operation Arrowhead: $40

"Hey community, with the release of Arrowhead a few weeks ago we thought it'd be a good time to announce our first DLC which has been around this whole time, it's just more stuff imported from VBS2!"

DLC #1: $10



Coming in another month or so, expect DLC #2: $10.



Cool story BIS.

Must be US taxes or publisher. In the EU the official price is 30 € and you could get it for 20 €.

My copy of OA was $37.99 with free shipping and handling. I have no issue with them doing what they did with OA. I realize that they need more money to continue. I might buy the DLC, I am mainly interested in the "ability for players to effectively operate and command artillery and mortar units". To be honest though, they should have had that in place already. Also, some bugs really piss me off, such as the rocks on hills that cause your character to get hung up.
