Since some weeks, ArmA 2: Combined Operation was in the Top Seller-list of Steam on the second page. Now, it is the fifth top selled game on Steam and ArmA 2: Operation Arrowhead is the 20th best selling game at the moment.
We hope that ArmA2 may now gets a even bigger community and maybe a better reputation because most of the bugs are fixed now.
Is ArmA 2 going to be a serious competitor of Call of Duty & Co? Went it out of the shadows or is it just a good phase for the game?

McNools has released his Aliabad-Region v1.0 terrain on the BI Forums. Arma2 : Combined Operations needed.
Aliabad is a coastal region somewhere in Takistan (or another similar country), it consists of some farmlands, settlements, rolling hills and some canyons. There are two main farmlands aswell as a few scattered farms and compounds all over the map, all in all it is much more populated than my previous map, Hazar-Kot. It is still a rather worn-down area though, with many ruins (some old, some new) here and there. (Initially I had planned to cover pretty much the whole map with farmlands, but it proved to be too much work since there weren't any farms on the satmap to begin with, I've added those myself, I realized it would take too much time, and I'd lose interest in it).
Also, I must inform you that the pre-order-link is just avilable through the german part of the offical Iron Front website. You could pre-order it through Amazon (regardless of which EUROPEAN country)

Since I’ve updated the SEAL pack I decided to update my US Rangers pack too, in order to get them ready for supporting SEALs operations. The addon is a retexture of BI Delta force, that rapresents US Army Ranger operators in five set of different camouflages , giving the units the possibility to operate in all kind of environments. In this update, you’ll find new combat shirts textures, improved loadouts, new units and specialists, snipers\observers in “ghillie suite”, config improvements, units now have “ranger green” color gear and backpacks, signatures files updated to v2, new replacement files and ACE config updated.
The addon now gives you 20 different operators with their own custom loadout, for each type of camouflage (5 camos), plus 4 snipers\observers wearing their “ghillie suite” for each woodland and desert camos.
There are also 4 fatured groups for every camo type (plus the ghillie ones insede woodland and desert), in order to improve the units placement in the editor. Hope you’ll enjoy this new version ! ... v2.00 date 29/Apr/2012 - All units have "ranger green" color equipment. - Custom patches for JTAC, Medic and Sapper. - Signatures Files updated to v2. - Improved normal and ACE configs. - Fixed "update class" RPT error.
Upon request by Muecke who was looking for a medium tank for CRcti, this addon allows you to use our M60A3 Tank without the CWR² Modification, assigned to the USMC Faction. The only difference between this and the CWR² Tank is the used woodland texture to match the other USMC Vehicles. The addon is of course signed, the server key is included in the archive. Also see the readme for class names.
