ARMA 2 Server - Interest?

DV8 · July 19, 2012, 08:19:50 AM

I was thinking about running an ARMA 2 server for a month or so. Any interest out there in scheduling some Grogheads time? I'm not looking for funding, just folks that want to play.

I'd play some!

I just bought the game. Consider me fresh meat, but yeah, I'm in.

Thining of getting it on this sale.... if so I'd be in as cannon fodder as well...

I'm in as long as we don't go nuts with mods.

OK. The response has been better than expected. I ordered the server so it should be up and running in a day or so. Once I have the details I'll post back with some suggested game times and server details. The IA in the game is pretty killy so we don't need to fill all 10 slots for the game to be entertaining. I figure the server will be mod-less at the start since most are just learning the game and I will be learning server hosting.

A bit of housekeeping - have moved this thread to the MP forum.

Is this the one to get?

I hope so since that's the one I bought.

I'm up for some ARMA 2 gaming!

Staggerwing · July 19, 2012, 06:33:55 PM

Hafta D/L first. Might be a while...

I'd recommend grabbing the British Armed Forces DLC as well. It adds a bunch of new toys and the ability to flip between two types of sights on the same weapon (ie, if you've got a rifle with a night-scope and iron sights, you can choose which to use.) I don't know if they added this feature to the base game after releasing BAF or not.

OK, the server is up and running. It's not running any mods or expansions beyond OA. It's a vote server right now and has the standard missions.

Let me know if it works on your end. I might jump on later to see if anyone is on. Once we have the kinks worked out I'll try scheduling a time.

LongBlade · July 20, 2012, 06:36:36 PM

Sweet! I'll try getting on later tonight.
