I have played a bit of arma 3 alpha and i liked it, but Battlefield is my favourite game still.
Aye. Well, if you change your mind, grab
ARMA2:OA cheaply, and check out the DayZ mod (or just look at the videos) and pop back here.
Chernarus is about 225 km squared, whereas Caspian Border is
2.21 km squared. Add zombies, and other people that will kill you for your ammo, and it can be tense. Esp when a game could go on for hours (or the server falls over/gets restarted after a couple of days)
/editT&C: You also must be over 18, and able to take some gentle slagging. Singing whilst drunk on Teamspeak is also usually required on your first night. TiG members are mainly in Ireland/Norn Iron, but also there's some from outside our glorious rainy nation.
