How it feels

a slow, deliberate, and punishingly realistic military simulator where patient planning and teamwork are essential for survival.

What players say

Players largely buy Arma 2 to play the DayZ mod, which they praise for unmatched ambience and tension. The core game is a realistic military simulator with deep tactics, but its clunky controls, poor campaign AI, and dated graphics split reviewers: some find it timelessly immersive, others say it has been surpassed.
