I will join you if i have the game and i am alittle miffed at what "Arma 2: Combined Operations" is too.
From reading that article, it looks like we could do with a team to keep the gankers away.

Looks like if we're spread well, we'll be fine as long as we are not hit by an equally large group.
I have operation arrowhead steam, and regular arma 2 non steam.
EDIT:
Research, Non steam ARMA2 with STEAM Operation Arrowhead + mod (What I need) :

Sounds like that in some ways, that's part of the appeal. It also sounds like we'll spawn randomly.
I also have a steam copy of arma II, but I think I'm mostly up to date with the expansion packs? I dunno...

The mod is for Operation arrowhead, but needs some of the files from ARMA2 in order to work.
Well, the game works, and appears fully playable, but given that all the servers are full and the master server is so pounded that when you join a server and it requests your data from the master server, you have to wait 5-10 minutes every time you connect to a server, the game could be problematic to play in a group, though sometimes you get lucky and get in in a few seconds. I have been alive 3 times now, and 2 of those i dont know what happened to my character, but after a while he just fell over and died with no warning or given reason as to why (though i suspect starvation, though i had food so all the game had to do was tell me i was hungry, or something).

You do need Operation Arrowhead or the combined package to play, unfortunately.

In its current state with a level of playerbase size the master server cannot handle and the fact that the mod is in alpha, you'll probably not miss much, and can pickup arrowhead in the 4th july steam sale @ 75% off, and FYI I had no difficulty getting the mod to work with steam OA and retail ARMA2

I installed it yesterday. I don't know if it works yet, as all the servers were full.
Maybe try tonight.
I plan to get a little equipment, then go into the wild and try and hunt to survive as long as possible on my without inconveniencing other players.
Much like real life really.

I need a bit of time to get back to grips with arma.

If ArmA II's expansions needed for the game go on sale I'll happily try out this mod with y'all.
So, I just spent an hour trying to get into a server. Couldn't, with a variety of different messages.
Fuck this. Pretty pissed off.
Maybe I'll calm down later, but at the moment, I'm livid.
Loading.
Locked.
Waiting for server response.
Black empty screen.
Password protected.
Full.
You have all these dayz files, delete them if you want to play.
Die in a fire.
