not sure on this, buying new content for ArmA  Normally this sort of stuff would come from the community gratis, those models do this good though. Will have to be a group decision on this, as if one person buys; we all have to buy. |

Agreed. I'm happy either way. We'll do a vote nearer the time, maybe?

Yeah I'm just reporting on the story. I'm not sure there's enough content in there - in reality, this is the new stuff: Vehicles: Jackal 2, FV510 Warrior, AH11 Wildcat, Merlin HC3Weapons: L85A2, L7A2 GPMG, AS50, LRR, NLAW, L2A1, L134A1http://www.arma2.com/game-features/arma-2-operation-arrowhead-british-armed-forces-features_en.htmlAs Ridg said; they produced much of this content for Arma II from the community so I'm all for waiting... Although NOT playing the US army would be good reason though... £7.99 worth of reason?? |

When you add that in - it's looking more reasonable... |

does it really make a difference what your character is wearing? Thats half the price of the original game. I'd wait and see what the community come up with

In truth - you're right, but to be honest I'm fed up with the whole attitude that the US army is the only army in the world... |

Indeed, but I can understand an Irishman not being thrilled about dressing up like a British Soldier, to be fair... Although the vehicles would be cool. You could pretend you stole 'em!  |

I bet its just a paint job and the robot voices are still the Americans. The Game is in the post now, but i cant see myself paying 50% of the game price just so i can look at Ridg in a british army gear.
Personally i like to keep look out for the enemy and not eyeing up my team mates...."doesn't his bum look better in the british green" ..."shit i died looking at Junkmans bum again"....lol
