    I will agree that the phone app is a bit ridiculous. :D

    Although on a serious note if you're a survival minded person: getting a solar phone charger and filling your phone with maps, apps and PDFs of survival books isn't a terrible idea.

    I'm interested in this, if I buy Arma 2 CO off the Bohemia Interactive web site I can register the CD keys on steam and it will act like a normal steam game? Is this correct?

    As fuus says, you can.

    Here's a handy list of games you can register on Steam if you buy them somewhere else.

    I think I used to use that server when I first got the game. I stick on UK9 now, I prefer to have both 3rd person and crosshairs off.

    Golly gosh I sure am loving the sound of DayZ! Downloading Arma 2 CO at this very moment (legitimately). Maybe I'll see some of you guys on the server

    Just stayed alive for a few hours :)

    Started by discovering how to work my flashlight, got into a town (never played arma so have no clue where anything is) found tons of ammo for different guns, but no gun.

    Found 3 cans of coke, a pepsi, 1 x flares, 3 x light sticks, a hatchet for chopping wood and some beans with sausages.

    Decided to leave town and head north but had no clue which way north was just to lose my bearings within 5 minutes and dither blindly back to town, walked straight into a zombie and died.

    Tense.

    I can see what all the hype is about. Will be fun to play with someone from bit :)

    Or you can wait and see if the Steam sales bring up a daily deal for it.

    This will be the best £15 you ever spent. Aside from the DayZ mod, there is just so much content out there that it renders me speechless.

    Buy Arma 2 Combined Ops, download the Six Launcher and away you go!

    Downloading 1.7.2.3, and the latest beta patch as well...

    Ghillies and Camo still do not work, please note that. Don't put it on! (I died in 1.7.1.5 and lost my camo anyway heh)

    EDIT: Downloaded 1.7.2.3 - currently seeding for a bit.
