[QUOTE=Welcometohel;33231444]I would be happy if ArmA 3 fixed 3 things.
1) Multiplayer Lag/Desync when people constantly leaving/connecting to the server
2) CQB and AI.
3) Bring engine up to standards. (SMOOTH ANIMATIONS, Physics doors, breakable windows, heat haze, RTT and other shaders.)[/QUOTE]

Yes!
So, does anyone know how to help my problem?
Start up the game than create a new profile. Copy your ".ArmaProfile" and rename it. IDK if it let you delete the one with your computer name, i have the same thing.
The reason you don't have ArmA 2 other profiles folder is because you don't have ArmA 2 ????

[QUOTE=Trooper0315;33227998]I got Combined Ops retail.[/QUOTE]
And CO has Arma 2 and Arma 2 OA.
EDIT: Okay, what the hell. The first time I tried to change my name I simply re-named my old file, so it created a second file in the main folder named the new name while keeping my old name in another profile, making me think that there was only one folder since it didn't create the 'Other Profiles' folder. I think I'm just going to use a different profile to play with you guys, this is a pain in the ass.
So instead of working on my Namalsk mission I played Skyrim until three. Go, 2nd47, go.
We up for a game tonight, then?
Yes please
So I bought ArmA2:CO when it was on sale on steam and I guess this is a game where you can only truly appreciate it by playing online.
The singleplayer AI is...horrendous and frustrating. But despite it's serious drawbacks which makes me quickload often, I keep coming back for more. Pretty fun game though I have to say.

Any plans to have the new version of VBS2 at ITAR next year dwarden?
How long until 1.60! I am starving for some ArmA2.
Seriously, are they still patching this game? Then they have just as good support as Tripwire, and I love thoose guys. I might buy ArmA 2 the next time steam has it on sale, but right now I at least have to finish skyrim. Is ArmA 2 still worth getting if you don't have any friends that are into realism shooters?

You're going to have to buy Combined Operations instead of just ArmA2, nobody plays vanilla anymore. I think some people in this thread do weekly games or something.
