    Default Arma 3 Alpha

    Has anyone bought Arma3 Alpha yet?

    I bought the cheapest version but haven't had a chance to play it yet.

    By the way if you are considering buying it when it is fully released, it would be a good idea buying the alpha as you will receive the full game once it is released, meaning you will pay £19.99 instead of £39.99

    Been looking at it and it looks good but still debating whether to go for it or not.

    It's more about simulation than anything else. I'd say its safer than Call of Duty and some of the risque quotes those guys come out with. Content is good, very large modding community and its as tough as you want it to be

    Thanks to Red Phoenix

    I've also picked this up. Not had much chance to play yet but I've had a few goes of the infantry showcase. Seems very good! It's a good move by the devs opening up to modding from the start. There's already a good amount of content being released.

    Not played the previous one but sounds like a decent game.

    Is there any confirmation about the alpha being converted to the full title?

    Guys we should point out that LITE keys only give you access to showcase missions. Multiplayer and modding is disabled.
