  • i never actually played this game but it looks pretty cool... i saw some comments about this game having lots of commands, huge maps and the people are cooperative...

    fuck yeah! thats what a game needs :D

    oh and i also noticed some "maturity talk"

    ok there are in fact imature people both atacking and defending games..

    a guy comes here saying the game is shit just cuz he plays other games or cuz he never played it... u can't judge or compare a game without playing it...

  • looks like an awsome game, but i dont what it requires for the system, I have a Laptop, and defending a game may be immature but there satisfied, very much if there defending the game,,,,, maturity is measured by immaturity, meaning the more time your immature the more you're immature, and vice versa, Make sense? so if the people who play this game act immature to people who put this game down...... they are defending the game, not acting like kids.... alright before i get to complicate gud game

  • The map size in the game are fucking huge! I luv'd it! Too bad I can't play it since my gfx card died.

  • Hm... looks quite realistic

  • Comment removed

  • i fucking luve this game :D

  • Guys I downloaded the demo of this game im not sure its the legal version but the game is broke on my pc ( The starting screen is in black & white pixels)

    my computer is a windows 7 with a intel core i5-430M Processor with a 512 mb ATI graphic card so is the demo I downloaded broke? or is my computer too bad ( I doubt it because its a new computer)

  • no no no no! Arma 2 is nothing like a console shooter........you need a shitload of processing power to run it.....

  • @EdmasterXXX Yeah I know but there has been an endless array of shooter games this year

  • @Numberer1 I know what you mean and I'm getting tired of it too but this game is hardly your average FPS.

  • @EdmasterXXX I guess that I need to see more before I can make a judgment.

  • Americas army 3 is so much better maybe because America's army 3 is the most realistic game ever due to the fact its made by the U.S. military im not trying to troll or anything just giving a suggestion if you want something really realistic

  • @Chickenhunter9

    As far as I know it is only possible to simulate infantry warfare in AA when in Arma 2 company sized mp events consists of dedicated groups for different purposes: Supply, mortar units, artillery unit, fighter pilots, helicopter pilots, medevac personnel, and last but not least armored units (My speciality).

    I don't say that AA is worse than Arma 2. I am just saying that it is not comprehensive enough to simulate full spectrum of modern warfare.

  • @Gekkibi yeah i see wat you mean and anyway Arma2 more fun to play than AA3 just so many people say that they want to play a realsitic military simulator.

  • Most people don't understand that this game is about. most COD kids will think... " Can't beat Black Ops, No way"

  • The meaning of ArmA II is: Weapon 2 or Group A 2?

    (Translation from Spanish to English :3)

    If it's: Arm A 2: Group A 2, but if it's Arma 2 ("Arma" in spanish is "weapon"): Weapon 2.

    What's the ArmA 2 meaning? Please, tell me D:

  • @ComandosStrikeForce Armed Assault

  • @carbon0HUN Thanks, It's very difficult to know the original titles of the games for those who don't live in an English speaking country. I don't know if I'm telling you right, hahaha, I'm not good at English, sorry :S

  • @ComandosStrikeForce ArmA use to mean Armed Assualt, hence the first ArmA being called that, then for short everyone called it ArmA and therefore it was named ArmA instead of Armed Assualt.

  • @ComandosStrikeForce

    Armed Assault. Armed Assault is a registered trademark of Codemasters, who published Armed Assault (Arma 1) and Operation Flashpoint (Both the original one and Dragon Rising). BI (The maker of all these games, except for Dragon Rising) "got divorced" from Codemasters and started to make its own game, called Arma 2 (Not Armed Assault 2). AFAIK.

  • This game looks terrible, it's sad .. thinking how much hours the devs work on making games that don't stand a chance against cod or halo or whatever :(

  • @makki9119 You really need to either use your head or research abit more, this is not made to compete with COD or Halo, it's a PC only game & is based of a Military simulator called VBS2 which was bought by the military from Bohemia interactive, (ArmA is a Commercial release)

    Bohemia don't spend much time on this game because they let the community finish it off the way they like with Addons, so they sell the game very cheap. ArmA is the most realistic video game ever and is very difficult.

  • Why does every one compare everything to cod no matter what it is.

    fact : Cod and Halo are number 1 right now.

    fact: This game will fail to stand out.

    fact: Conkers bad fur day for the N64 is the shit.

  • @Baseballmagee

    fact: COD and Arma 2 are not in the same league. Try to simulate company sized warfare in COD or HALO or MOH or x or y or z or any other franchise targeted for kids.

  • @Gekkibi your fucking stupid targeted for kids? just shut the fuck up.

    i bet 10 bucks only people who play this game are the kids whos parents pick them up the wrong game for Christmas.

  • @Baseballmagee The only people who play this are People over the age of 17, i'v never met any Pre pubic kids like you online.

    This game requires a computer that will cost you around £700 - £900. This trailer is not for a game, it's the second DLC for a game that came out about 6 months ago.

    ArmA is a MilSim based off a Bigger Milsim that was sold to the military by Bohemia Interactive (who make this game)

    ArmA's lifeline is that is doesn't stand out to kids, No Children Play it WOOOOO

  • @CARBRINE if you spent money one a 900 dollar computer to play a game you must not have much of a life

    plus if your not a kid or teen you must be an adult witch is just sad congratulations! your a virgin loser. and you know what else is funny those kids probably pull more girls then you haha...

  • @Baseballmagee You know what's funny? I DIDN'T SPEND 900 dollars on a computer, learn the read idiot.

    And your a hypocrite, how can you call somebody a virgin when your one yourself? yes we both know your a virgin.

  • @CARBRINE you know whats funny how mad you got cuz you pull no girls lol

  • @Baseballmagee What have you got to prove? Your not kidding anyone mate.

  • @CARBRINE stop replying bum. your not worth the time.

  • @Baseballmagee

    fact: You have no idea what I am talking about. Like I said; try to simulate company sized warfare in any other (arcadish) "realistic" game.

    Just check the stereotypic age of COD/MOH/whatever player and come back to discuss about the average age of Arma / OFP (And I do not mean Dragon Rising, it is not made by BI).

  • @Gekkibi what I'm saying is this game stands out in no way i could see if you could do something you couldn't on any other game " OMG YOU CAN HIDE BEHIND A TREE" hardcore yo. it has the same story as every thing else. i just dont see why any one would buy it.

    also this game is in no way in the league of any of those games. and wtf is dragon rising

  • @Baseballmagee

    "...If you could do something you couldn't on any other game" : Multiplayer events are not just "clan vs clan team deathmatches". It is teamwork that matters. Frags doesn't earn you any points. You only "frag" because it decreases the efficiency of the opposing side. Even better if you wound someone: They'll have to treat wounded (And no, no insta-heal)

    Can you operate a tank in any other fps game like you operate them in Arma 2? You have TC, GN, DR and LD in one single tank.

  • Comment removed

  • @Gekkibi so this game is more like battle field or is it like Halo wars or star craft

  • @Baseballmagee

    You are mocking a game when you clearly have no idea what kind of game it is. So let me get it straight: You are mocking something you don't know anything about, but you do know for a fact that some other game you do know is much better than this one?

    No, this is not like battlefield (AFAIK it is still arcadish fps), Halo (Even if I don't know what Halo wars is...) or even starcraft (What is RTR - Real Time Reaction [There is no strategy involved])

  • @Gekkibi sooo its like socom or rainbow six lol

  • @Baseballmagee

    Arma 2 is not FPS: The main goal is not to harvest frags. You only engage enemies if it brings your side closer to your goals. Hard to explain, so it is easier to demonstrate it by showing you some youtube-videos. Try watching this for example: /watch?v=HakFVNMv5I4

    Unfortunately it is missing radio chatters. It is a video footage from multiplayer campaign "Jigsaw" where "BLUFOR" side consists of armored platoon, infantry platoon and recon squad.

  • @Gekkibi hmm looks mad complicated bro

  • @Baseballmagee

    Well, so is real life war, eh? :) Like I have always said; blackops, modern warfare 2, etc are only arcade shoot-em-ups and it is not possible to simulate authentic warfare in those games. Sure, arcade-FPS can be enjoyable to play, but that is not the point. The point is they are unrealistic (Even the bullet-drop is modelled incorrectly).

    I searched another one for you (Contains more action and comms):

    /watch?v=hZUJ9t5gSe4 (Part 1)

    /watch?v=sh8A_V9C4-c (Part 2)

  • @Gekkibi ArmA sure looks like a FPS - FIRST PERSON SHOOTER.

  • @SubzeroedMind

    Chess sure looks like a board game, right?

  • @Gekkibi Well, you'd have to define "board game" first.

    First Person Shooter is a definition by itself in my opinion - a game where you shoot from the 1st person view (as in, your weapon poking your screen). Be it unrealistic sh*t like CoD, Quake, UT or more realistic sh*t like BFBC2, Sniper, OF or ArmA.

    Then you might add "simulation" or something. I saw it that way.

  • @SubzeroedMind

    You are correct. "Arma 2 is part of FPS-genre". However, I am correct as well: "Chess is part of board game -genre". Both games have alot more than being FPS/board games. :)

  • @Gekkibi Same roots, different developments.

    ;)

  • @SubzeroedMind It is a miltary simulator, not an FPS. As a simulation of infantry etc, the view is required to be in the first person to be realistic. There are often many cases in game however where the player is not in a first-person-shooting situation, and contains many times more variety than an FPS. The correct genre designation is Milsim.

  • @7th75thCallaghan It's a game. Third person in a simulation is HIGHLY unrealistic.

    That aside, you can't deny this game is a FPS. FPS just means you're playing in first person view, arcade gameplay (or anything else) doesn't connotate that genre.

    I don't mean to put it next to CSS, COD or BF, but I'm just saying. If you think it's not FPS, it's okay man.

    In a broader sense, I think FPS can be applied.

  • @SubzeroedMind I'm not talking about third person. Much time is spent using 'heads down' equipment and the game doesn't revolve solely around combat, unlike FPSs. It includes FPS elements, no doubt, but it is too far removed from those other games to be grouped with them. The danger is that it gives people the idea that it may be similar, or comparable.

  • @7th75thCallaghan Okay man... I see your point :)

  • @7th75thCallaghan

    its still First Person and it still is a game. If you deny any of them, then you need your head chefked.

  • @SubzeroedMind Of course this is FPS but is obviously not an arcade game but if you think third person is unrealistic than just disable the command in the options... BIH had a good reason for putting it in the game, Look it up and you'll understand the point of using third person.

  • @Baseballmagee Its nothing like socom or rainbow six. Listen to what people try to tell you, it is a simulator, used by various military forces for training. You can take your FPSs and stick them where the sun dont shine.

  • @Baseballmagee This game is totally not like BF, BF is kid game compared to ArmA2, In CoD, BF you kill enemies, yeha! we will win! I am soooo 1337!

    In ArmA2, you have to focus on primary target, killing enemy means nothing in this game, you dont get points for that. You get points for doing objectives. Not like in COD, when you kill enemy, screen is spammed with +50!!! +100 for HS!!! +200 for Avenge!!! +1000 random points, meh!!!

  • @realIBeliX you get points for getting kills but the game is obviously better if your trying your hardest to come up with ways to try to be better majority of people prefer cod cuz its fun not because its "realistic" when its not trying to be "realistic" its a fucking video game this game is not fun thats why no one plays it. but you probably suck at cod and battlefield thats why you don't like em

  • @Baseballmagee CoD sucks, it doesnt hav e any fun, I have tried both MW2 and BO, they are for kids who tihnk that is how real war is. I play Battlefield games myself, mostly BFBC2 now, preordered BF3.

    There is no fun games and realistic games which are not fun. It depends on community, some people like arcade fun, like CoD, some people like realistic simulator fun like ArmA.

    Most choose COD because it is easy game. It takes much skill to play ArmA.

  • @realIBeliX like 10people play arma matter of fact no body plays it i never heard of it untill i seen this i never seen anyone buy it or play it its obviously not that good if no one plays it lol

  • @Baseballmagee Like I said, ArmA2 is for mature people, if kid who plays CoD 24/7 and screams on microphone around, he definetly will hate this.

    Compare both game communities, CoD is full of kids, only few decent mature people play it just for time killing.

    ArmA2 plays only mature people +18. Lately, ArmA2 has become popular, there ar emany servers now and I never heard squicking kid voice there.

    If you like CoD, go and play, no one restricts you, just dont play ArmA2, we dont need kids there.

  • @realIBeliX lol you fucking stupid if some one is screaming in the mic just mute them retard your probably one of those kids that tell them to " shut the fuck up" instead of muting right away o and little kids play arma 2 retard

    and no arma is not popular nobody plays it. you mad ?

  • @Baseballmagee Oh look, ''OMGFG stupid fucking!'' Why so angru? Mad bro? Little kids play ArmA2? Seriously Hah, idiot. Just shut the fuck up and go out on fresh air. Retard.

  • @Baseballmagee no not everyone has a good pc clever one

  • @AssFragger what the fuck LOLOLOLOL

  • @Baseballmagee Oke you need to stfu. You don't know what everybodys plays because you are surrounded by little kids that all play call of duty brainless ops. Arma 2 has ALOT (SO IT IS PLAYED ALOT!) mature players mainly 18+ and little kids don't play arma since the system needed to play it is insane and let alone the amount of commands in the game. So just go ahead and be brainless in CoD but don't EVER insult a game you don't like because your IQ is to low to understand any of it.

  • @TheMast3rBF2

    lol are u fucking kidding me its more of a shitty simulation, than a game k

  • @rayreturnz Like i said its for people with a brain. You dont understand it so you say its shitty. Bet you havnt ever played online with a clan have you?

  • @TheMast3rBF2

    I played it with strangers and I still had fun and that was the free version

    and now I got ARMA II for free.I'm so happy

  • Comment removed

  • @rayreturnz Try playing this game with mature people. Ur a fucking kid, Go play MW2 or CoD 4 or some other shitty unrealistic piece of cock game.

    Thank you.

  • @Baseballmagee

    Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising is game published by codemasters. Original Operation Flashpoint was made by Bohemia Interactive, same company who made Armed Assault ("Arma") and Arma 2. Bohemia Interactive didn't had anything to do with Dragon Rising, and that is why that game just... Sucks. It is arcade and doesn't have any kind of simulation aspect. It is just another stereotypic FPS (Just like your COD and MOH and everything else. Grey mass without anything special).

  • @Baseballmagee Kid, you have no idea what you are talking about, go play with your toys, and leave the serious stuff to intelligent mature people who demand more from their games than some mastubatory reward system that revolves purely around clicking on your opponents faces faster than they click on yours. You truly are making yourself look stupid here. There is a reason why this game is played by so many active and former military, and a reason why no one takes you seriously here.

  • @7th75thCallaghan lol its not realistic realistic is out on the battlefield

  • @Baseballmagee Yawn. That's really tiresome. Out on the battlefield is reality, this is realistic.

  • @7th75thCallaghan realistic but it sucks

  • @Baseballmagee all i can say to this whole argument is , trololololololololol

  • looks like a fps of socom SWEET

  • Haha I hate how people don't think how lucky they even have videogames because when are parents were kids they were imagining them stop fighting you dicks

  • @huskes5 That made no sense my friend.

  • Can't catch me lucky charms

  • i have the arma 2 demo and i've found that Arma 2 is much like shakespeare to me. I HATE it, but I feel like the only reason i don't enjoy it is because of my own short attention span and i blame myself. What a mind f^*k.

  • This is why I hate watching ArmA videos, there's only two types of people that comment on them: kids who say CoD is realistic and 16 year olds saying that COD isn't realistic

  • i cant base this off of the vid but this vid makes the game look like shit

  • that need to put this on xbox

  • I am sick of cod fags hating on arma 2. they dont know what it is and since it dosent have the budget of arma 2 everyone hates on it for its bad voice acting.

  • @Guynumber7 i hear ya, overall cod fags just bash on other games, when they prolly wont know a good game if it kicked em on the head

  • this game is a shooter simulation with shitty voice acting but hey it is realistic and for mature audiences who are patient and can do large scale things

  • Honestly...all you children who think this game is REMOTELY like COD or BF or Far Cry SERIOUSLY need to play the game and get some facts on your history before you come to these videos and bash the game claiming another game...Arma is in a class of it own and is for a MATURE audience hence why your children would even Fathom it copying COD or some other FPS...This is a WAR simulator...I use to be like you all until I played it and now I script in it...No other game like it...

  • I didn't know they still made n64 games...

  • @Defensivelax So do you have a problem with your eyes or something?

  • @Defensivelax If I recall, the n64 had a lot of the epic games that I remember. Just saying :P

  • looks like Far Cry 2

  • @trentWHY your comment does not offend me since you are un-educated. dumb people have no way of offending me 

  • fuck off with the halo reach adds -.-

  • who gives a shit about the games graphics the animation still SUCK HUGE FUCKING ASS.

  • @sabertoothray If you hate them so much, make your own and put them ingame.

  • Did this trailer just say it's own game is awesome? wtf

  • Its not the graphics making it look bad. its the animations.

  • Theres allready so much content but i still want more. BAF was awesome and i also loved the PMC campaign. Bring it on BIS! id love to see a fully working 3d editor in the next release...! 

  • "this games graphics are shit"

    AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH­AHAHAGAHAAHAAHHAHAHA

    GHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

    O GOD PLEASE CONTINUE

  • This games graphics shit on anything call of dookie has to offer.

  • What's up with the red and green bullets?

  • @ZezimaXL tracers.

  • @ZezimaXL wow what a fucking moron haha your not from the U.S.A ARE U

  • Lets just hope this  wont fail as bad as "operation flashpoint dragon rising" did :P

  • @Roxeas1 ArmA 2 has already been released, quite awhile ago. This is just a new map/update.

  • @Roxeas1 It didn't, it's been out since before dragon rising. Dragon Rising was a doomed attempt at making it all prettied up like a little miss sunshine contestant, and then removing all realism and fun.

  • i would easily choose this game over any call of duty game any day

  • You gotta love this game.

    Really hard to get the hang of though.

  • everyone I know ARMA2 has fucken shitty trailers but when u play the game its sik it very real and fun 2 play (WARNING this game is nothing like COD)

  • arma is hard for me to play

  • @DudemanClide Well it's realistic shooter, so it's not really gonna be easy. 

  • lol this is gonna do well (sarcasm) 

  • @woozzification hell, i actually think it will...  i'd buy it

  • @woozzification It's already been doing well for the past 5 years, Bohemia Make Millions from VBS2 which they sell to the Military.

    You're not an idiot.. (Sarcasm) (You are an idiot)

  • Looks pretty good.

  • Noble Team needs to stop running in circles and take that cruiser out now.

  • look a bit like operation flashpoint 

  • Private Military Contractor.

  • More of a teaser then trailer.

  • is that third person @ 0:39 ?

  • @SeriusAnarchy oops, 0:41 ?

  • @NeVeRScReAmDeVoN Actually, yes, ArmA 2 has third person too.

  • @solopaverr it is now a must buy on my christmas list :D haha

  • @NeVeRScReAmDeVoN nevermind, birthday money :D

  • Can Machinima read? the trailer clearly states that it is Arma II Private Military Corporation and instead they put down operation arrowhead....

  • @copekat9001 If you look at the parts of the trailer before the title card that says private military corporation, it says Operation Arrowhead up in the corner the whole time.

  • I think this might just beat black ops and halo reach I can't wait for this game to come out next year

  • Why did I get halo reach ad?

  • @zpopcornpawz because your to dumb to download adblock plus

  • shut up ass hole

  • nova team bomb is armed

  • Guys stop trying to defend this game from people who think it's new or shit compared to COD, half the reason ArmA is such a great game is because it's played by so few people which means Bohemia ALWAYS listen to the community, you don't get any kids online, everyone plays the game the way it's suppose to and it silently rape's Call of duty and Battlefield in the back alley.

  • @CARBRINE This, exactly this.

  • @CARBRINE Couldn't agree more with you. I simply love this game. And Operation Arrowhead proved that Bohemia is a great studio! I can spend hours on this game from making (what i think) the perfect battle or just simply playing scenarios.

  • @CARBRINE  You and 8 people huh? Not much of a community in my eyes.

  • @SilvernightStudios Try about 800, i assume that number is too big for your little brain though :)

  • @CARBRINE Agreed , arma is the on , but it wouldnt rape battlefield.

  • @ARKILLER95 Maybe not, i'v been playing Battlefield since 1942 and love it, but i would never trade ArmA for it.. And ArmA online is 50x more fun than Bad company 2 online.

    Compared to Battlefield 2 it's close but i would still always take ArmA.

  • @CARBRINE Yes , im not saying it is better, ARMA is better , but only slightly.

    Battlefield is still an awesome realistic game , which should never be related to CoD because it is that epic. Arma 2 is better , but by no means ALOT better.

  • eeeeeuuuuw xD

  • love the accent

  • @trentWHY CCCCCCCCCCCRRRRRRRRRRRRAAAAAAA­AAAZZZZZZZYYYYYYYYYYYY AAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSSS HHHHHHHHHHHHIIIIIIIIIPPPPPPPPY­YYYYYYYYY

  • dunno looks just like medal of honor but not as good, then again moh wasn't the greatest game but it was still pretty good

  • "Fred the youtube phenomenon"? I have never heard of the guy and he looks like a total gimp. ha ha ha

  • Such a realistic, amazing game. Soo fun.

  • ehhh.... i cant make deciede if it lloks good or not

  • @TwoRandomGamers It's not suppose to look good, i'v been playing ArmA for about 3 years and NEVER came across somebody under the age of 17 online.. and for me that's a must buy, but the reason you don't get 8 year olds is because they barely show their trailers off their Website.. until now :( still the computer specs you need for ArmA are extreamly high which again lowers the little kiddies playing and in the end all your left with playing are mature nice people who want to play as a team.

  • Looks quite realistic

  • @Imfliba This was a military sim, used by the military so its inbelievabley realistic for a game

  • love this,looks like halo reach is nothing compared to this,Arma II operation Arrowhead looks like its gonna be a lil' more better than black ops!

  • LMAO IS THIS A JOKE?

  • @nepovjerenje Yes, yes it is, so please do not buy this. The beauty of ArmA is that it doesn't have people like you playing.

  • Looks sweeet

  • looks awesome!

  • i like to play medal of honor and call of duty... not serious games,,, sometimes i also love to play realistic games... i bought operation flashpoint and love it... too fking realistic. my friends told me that OPF its shit comparing to ARMA ... what do you guys think? please let me know.

  • i like to play medal of honor and call of duty... not serious games,,, sometimes i also love to play realistic games... i bought operation flashpoint and love it... too fking realistic. my friends told me that OPF its shit comparing to ARMA ... what do you guys think? please let me know.

  • make a dam free world pirate game. Enough of the shooting games the xbox universe is getting bored here!

  • Looks lame.

  • penis

  • @Eff3ct3D abit pretentous

  • I am kinda getting tired of all these war games, I really wish that it would of stopped or slowed down when Modern Warfare ONE got released because that's when it plateaued.

    You can see it everywhere now in all forms of media it just seems that no one can come up with an idea anymore, I hate to say it sounding like a hipster but it's devastatingly true.

  • @PaiMeiHefeweizen ARMAII is made by the same peeps who made OFP- one of the best war-games ever and for it's time the the most realistic war-game. If you consider Modern Warfare a war game... I got bad news for you.

  • @sakils2 Fine If games like Battlefield 1942 and Modern Warfare aren't war games then I wish war games where never games in the first place, games trying hard to be total simulations of a real life situation never work except for some rare cases like Gran Turismo(2-4 that is).

    If you wan't to feel like an elitist because your games are self-proclaimed by you "More Hardcore" then your average gamer then handle then fine I won't pop your ego balloon.

  • @PaiMeiHefeweizen How are they trying too hard? Never said they are "More-Hardcore", realistic games require a different mindset. Realistic games are much slower, more tactical, much much more appealing to me. No need to be offence... Take a chill pill.
