I was playing Arma 2 for a few months and I decided to buy this game before my new computer was built. Bought the game for $40 during the alpha launch. The battleye client globally banned 1000's of accounts in one night for some unknown reason. This was confirmed on the BE homepage. I was one of the few who got banned for no reason. I opened a ticket and a week later a dev contacted me. I went back and forth providing screenshots, CD keys, and purchase information for an additional two week period. I even took the time to make a video. The devs denied my claims making it so that I can't play ANY of the Arma games online making all of my purchases worthless. This is a great game, but ♥♥♥♥ the anti-cheat engine. I would not recommend purchasing this game through steam or the Arma store. I would rather buy a cd key and not support the devs.
