Someone else seems to have recently added mention of a version of the M14 with an attached ACOG scope. Is that referring to a weapon in the base game? I've only seen M14's with anything other than the Aimpoint when running the ACE 2 mod. [[User:Kadorhal|Kadorhal]] 23:19, 25 December 2011 (CST)

:Fixed. After checking it out, it seems that the vanilla version of ArmA:OA included a M14 model only with an Aimpoint. The ACOG version was added with ACE2 mod. --[[User:RaNgeR|RaNgeR]] 00:59, 26 December 2011 (CST)

Revision as of 18:47, 4 June 2012

I just added alot of Pictures to the page. I know their not perfect but they are alot better than just a list of guns. Rockwolf66 04:31, 2 April 2009 (UTC)

May I post addon weapons? (Snakevenom56)

I'd strongly advise against it. --MattyDienhoff 05:10, 6 January 2010 (UTC)
Okay (Snakevenom56)
Meh? Why not?
Because: where would it end? I'll just use ArmA's predecessor -- Operation Flashpoint -- as an example. There have been countless addon weapons released for that game, including many different versions of the same weapons, made by different authors at various levels of quality. Should I take screenshots of all of those addon weapons, including multiple examples of the same weapon by different authors, just because I can? No. It's just a massive waste of time and energy and it'll invariably end up being confusing and messy. Most of the game articles on this site are already on thin ice as it is, there's no reason to get ridiculous. --MattyDienhoff 19:10, 19 January 2010 (UTC)
If someone really wants to screencap the weapons listed for this game though, it would be much appreciated. --Markit 02:47, 20 January 2010 (UTC)
I just thought it would be a okay idea, for those who are like "aw, no FAMAS" or "aw, the RPK-74 has a drum mag" and could see there are addons of the guns they may like and RPKs with the correct magazine (Snake)
Not that i disagree with the "no addon weapons" idea, but the content of the ACE-Mod is really high-quality and is at least on one level with the regular weapons, if not better. With the sheer amount of guns added by this, it would almost deserve an extra page (just like the Battlefield 2 Mod Project Reality has).

Wrong SCARs

Why were example pics of the original first-gen SCARs used when the ones in-game are clearly the current third-gen SCARs? And the long-barreled SCAR-H referred to as an SSR isn't actually an SSR, it's a regular SCAR-H with a long barrel. The SSR has a longer forward receiver. [1] Spartan198 12:00, 18 July 2010 (UTC)

Eotech

In a description, it says the EoTech model is a 552. I don't know what model it is, but it's way too short for a 552 12:13, 22 June 2010 (UTC)

Could it be an EoTech 551? Also, sign your posts please. -Chris_Hun7er 12:49, 23 June 2010 (UTC)

The ones on the M4s look like 551s, while the ones on the SCARs look like 553s.--Lynx 13:49, 28 June 2010 (UTC)

Correct. The EOTech on the M4 is a 551 and the one on the SCAR is a 553. Spartan198 12:00, 18 July 2010 (UTC)

Operation Arrowhead

Shouldn't Operation Arrowhead have its own page? I believe it is a standalone mod. -Chris_Hun7er 06:32, 30 May 2010

While it is a standalone mod, it still works with the original ArmA II. A second page for what is essentially the same game is not necessary. Dannysaysnoo - 20:08, 17th of June, 2010

unknown revolver

The unknown revolver in Operation Arrowhead looks like a Taurus Tracker, either a 617, 627 or 44 model. -Saberthechampion 10:30, 28 June 2010

You're definitely right on the Taurus Tracker part. I looked into what model it was, and the only .45 ACP variant I could find was the Taurus Tracker Model 455, more commonly known as the Taurus Tracker .45 ACP, and is seemingly no longer produced. -Chris_Hun7er 20:32, 28 June 2010 (UTC).

SCAR-H?

Can anyone tell me why the sniper variant of the SCAR-H is listed under the sniper category when it's already in the assault/battle rifle category and why it's listed as the Mk.20 Mod 0? -Chris_Hun7er 02:40, 29 June 2010

No idea, in game its known as a Mk17 Sniper (Suppressed) must be someone who edited the page and thinks adding a scope to a rifle makes it a 'sniper' scarecrow 20:37, 31 December 2011 (CST)

Lack of animation

Anyone notice that most of the bolt action weapons are completely un-animated? I've only played the demo, but the M24 I used seemed devoid of animation.--Dannysaysnoo 18:13, 17 July 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, BIS basically said that they didn't work on animations because they weren't high priority and they devoted their time and work force to bug fixes, gameplay improvements, etc. At least the lack of animation doesn't detract from gameplay. -Chris_Hun7er 6:59, 18 July 2010 (UTC)
Well, problem is that they didnt do a good job there either, ArmA II is still one of the buggiest games out there. And its not just the bolt actions that lack animation, every weapon lacks proper reload animations, the character only does some fumbling next to the gun and it magically loads itsself. Costs a good amount of atmosphere.

British Army DLC announced

http://www.arma2.com/latest-news/british-armed-forces-deployed-in-takistan_en.html

On another topic, look at this picture. http://www.arma2.com/images/stories/armaBAFfeatures/Arma-BAF-banner.JPG Is it just me, or is this L85 obviously a replica or some sort?

Well, as a main point it's an A1 model, so I'd say it most likely is. The Wierd It 20:43, 8 September 2010 (UTC)

PMC DLC Announced

Appears that there is going to be some new DLC featuring private military contractors wielding some new weapons like the AA-12. Check out the trailer. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ME99BuDmY8I&feature=player_embedded

XM8

The XM8 looks 2 me like the Compact version with an adjustable buttstock. It is too small to be the standard XM8. bozitojugg3rn4ut 05:21, 12 April 2011 (CDT)

What!? - Mr. Wolf 00:35, 1 July 2011 (CDT)
You did notice, that there's just about every XM8-Variant in the game that exists, did you? Killerpixel 01:24, 1 July 2011 (CDT)
Did you guys even look at the caps of the XM8 on the page? -_- Mr. Wolf 01:56, 1 July 2011 (CDT)
Of course, and there's multiple variants. I don't see the problem. Killerpixel 02:13, 1 July 2011 (CDT)

SCAR-H Scope

Can anybody tell me, what type of optic is mounted on the Mk17 RCO Model? Pictures: http://imageshack.us/g/194/arma2oa2011070106425990.jpg/ Killerpixel 23:56, 30 June 2011 (CDT)

It's an Elcan Spectre. I can't tell from looking whether it's the fixed 4x SpectreOS or the switchable 1-4x SpectreDR. The Wierd It 04:24, 4 December 2011 (CST)

M14 ACOG

Someone else seems to have recently added mention of a version of the M14 with an attached ACOG scope. Is that referring to a weapon in the base game? I've only seen M14's with anything other than the Aimpoint when running the ACE 2 mod. Kadorhal 23:19, 25 December 2011 (CST)

Fixed. After checking it out, it seems that the vanilla version of ArmA:OA included a M14 model only with an Aimpoint. The ACOG version was added with ACE2 mod. --RaNgeR 00:59, 26 December 2011 (CST)
