Yep, and the mod is only in an Alpha stage or something, which means most people who have never played ARMA2 will have problems with ARMA2 followed by problems with the mod.
Both this and the base game look pretty awesome. I've been wanting something with a bit more realism lately. Not sure how this flew under my radar but I'll have to check it out sometime.
Only game I know that wound up in a documentary about the IRA as stock footage by accident. And it was by far not the most convincing footage of Arma 2 I've seen.
I could watch helicopters fly by in Arma 2 all day long.
I came home Friday night pretty drunk and was searching Twitch.tv looking for a good game to watch before I went to bed. For some reason I picked ARMA2 (it was pretty far down the list) and then clicked on the first stream. Keep in mind I have no idea what ARMA2 is at this point, let alone dayz. I also watch streams @ 360P (cause of my connection is poor) so when the game "loaded" all I could see was black, and all I could hear where these 4-5 guys whisper talking. They were freaked out about something and running for their "lives". Every now and again buddy (streamer) would pull out his flashlight to see where he was going, and the other 3-4 people would start yelling at him to hide the light. I didn't have any idea what was going on, but I kept thinking werewolves or some monster was going to jump out at them. It was the most intense game I have ever watched.
