Update (and double-post bonus points!)

I've patched the game to v1.02, this game is a big improvement over the original ArmA game. The visuals are better, great ammo effects (tracers bouncing everywhere off hard surfaces), the AI seems better at driving (doesnt crash into something every minute!). You can drag or carry wounded comrades out of the line of fire....awesome!

The interface for commanding your squad is better I think, and there is a "general" tactical view for commanding multiple squads, alot easier and better than its previous version.

I've only been playing the "boot camp" tutorial modes for about 3 hours, but it looks promising (i was bored at this point with FC2!).

If you get this game, patch it to v1.02 before you play it and i'd recommend the "boot camp" tutorials. The only annoying thing so far is the amount of keys to bind.

You will need a good computer to enjoy it at its best though, Im running at acceptable beauty and performance settings (medium), god knows how nice it would look at MAX! (looks to games!)
