This is pretty cool!

I already own ARMA 2, and this free version does have some limitations, but still, anyone who hasn't tried it, should download this, NOW!

I wonder it that's to keep the multiplayer alive, or just to promote Arma3. Nice either way for those that don't have it, I don't quite understand leaving out "HD graphics" though.

It's worth a shot regardless, but that CPU is gonna' be toast. It's a very demanding game, both in system resources and what it asks from the player.

I dunno. I'm running Windows 7 with a i7 2.0 GHz Processor, 6 GB of RAM, and a NVidia 555 1.5GB video card on my laptop, and the demo runs fine but I can't turn everything to max, especially the draw distance.

This sounds pretty awesome, as the demo looked like it may be worth checking out, but it was so clunky controlling I didn't want to spend money on it.

Great move but my PC is too crappy for Arma 2. I could play it on poor settings but that takes out all the fun.

I played it on low settings with a Pentium D :P I think it'll run, just not at high settings.

Oh, the engines more scalable than people assume, it's just that you'd have to deal with the fact that one of the best looking games on the market looks more like the original Operation Flashpoint on your PC. :P

in the link where do I go to download it? I went to the bottom where it lists the restrictions and says free download in June. So does that mean its just not up yet?

That's simply amazing. You get this huge amount of content for free, even dedicated servers. *Some* publishers could learn from that.

I play it often too, though only with my friends! We usually make custom missions and spend 3 hours dying horribly. :D We also have dwarden (or -an?) posting occasionally, who I believes works for BIS directly!

I hope they rework with the optimization, runs terrible on my system. Why would they leave the HD graphics? ArmA II looks bland even on high...
