ARMA 2: Feep can play
Packer:
Its a MILITARY SIMULATION, Controls are based of combat effectiveness, no instant weapon swap because you need to run around and headshot everyone or a bunch of simple point and click ordering. If you where in a combat situation you'd never have the ability to instantly do anything. The Voice acting is word file based allowing custom commands and vast variety of voice communications. The demo is still pre-release engine and no patches/fixes have been applied to it.
I instant know how to command my squads using the 1 to 0 keys on my keyboard to tell them exactly what to do without even looking, this game isn't made for beginners, its a god damn loving Military simulation not a pick up and play FPS.

So, the controls are stuff because it's a MILITARY SIMULATION?

Making a game purposely inaccessible is like shooting yourself in the foot.
Packer:
Its not purposely inaccessible, you have to sit down and learn how everything works, once again not a pick up and play FPS. The controls are advanced, way out side the standard DO EVERYTHING button, you have options in options. I really don't see how you could possibly blow so hard at this game.

I never saw the reason why people bitch about the controls, they are perfectly fine if a bit "laggish" at times. but I got used to that.
Block Buster:
So if I were to buy this what exactly do I buy, I see there's fixed wing and then Just ARMA 2. Now if I have just the core game do I really miss out or could I still have an intresting time with it? Might try the demo today.
