An unforgivably buggy load of rubbish and an utterly brilliant game. Confused?...yes me too...
I got this game in the recent steam sale. I was never really turned on by what I heard about it when it was released but I thought that it would be worth a punt, specifically I wanted to try the coop with a friend. Bea... Read Full Review

Amateurish
I can't believe that, in all the reviews, nobody has mentioned how.....amateurish this game feels. I think it's a laudable aim that the developers attempted this. But the end result feels like they cut so many corner... Read Full Review

Despite all the bugs, this is a masterpeice...
Parts of the game are still buggy like a summer night in northern sweden - but this is one of those few games that really makes me shudder with pleasure while playing it. That only happens once every other year or so, an... Read Full Review

If i was writing this review when game was released the game would earn 1. It was full of bugs, you were lucky if you even run it. But here we are, years later after 6-7 patches. And the game if working pretty good. ... Read Full Review

Definitely an improvement...
A definite improvement over the ambitious first Armed Assault. It may very well be the most realistic and best first person military simulator to date. I bought the expansion that adds even more to it. Well worth the mon... Read Full Review

It's a game you have to learn. No more run and gun tactics.
(FOR QUICK SUMMARY GO TO THE END!) Arma 2 (ARMed Assault) is quite hard to classify. I'd have to say it's the first, prepare yourselves: First person/third person/squad based tactical/rts/rpg shooter. It's about e... Read Full Review

Complex, addicting and buggy (UPDATED REVIEW)
GAMEPLAY Arma 2 is either hated or loved or, ironically, both. Arma's community is a bit like the battered wife who won't leave. Her husband might make her his boxing bag every now and then but she just loves him too ... Read Full Review

About as close to war as you can get in a video game.
When I say that, I do not mean in the sense of gore and horror. I mean it in terms of combat and survival realism. Arma 2 is a sandbox simulator. It is incredibly realistic, but manages to be great fun at the same time. ... Read Full Review

Well after hundreds of hours just trying to get it to work, i have to recommend 'dont buy'
So the core of this game is awesome. Its got some great ballistics, 'Some' of the vehicles are absolutely great, the tactics you can use are top notch, and subsequently the maps are very large, and everything is made ar... Read Full Review

Hands down the best shooter of its time. Not being biased, just being truthful. For milsim fans and serious gamers only!
I've been playing Bohemia's games since day 1. From Operation Flashpoint, Armed Assault, to Arma 2 and now Arma 2: Operation Arrowhead. When i first saw OFP i didnt want to play it, it didnt look like anything spectac... Read Full Review
