Boycotting Arma 2 Operation Arrowhead Boycott

Boycotting the expansion Arma 2 Operation Arrowhead until Bohemia fixes the bugs from the original Arma 2.



WE RECOGNIZE:

-Bohemia is a company with financial needs and cannot be expected to survive without the release of new games.

-Judgment cannot be passed on the quality of Arma 2: Operation Arrowhead until its release.

-Arma 2 was, and is, a quality game which deserves the praise of the entire gaming community.

WE ARE COMMITTED:

-To holding Bohemia to its promise of free, continual updates to Arma 2 in order to build and sustain the community.

-To keeping the Arma 2 community together in order to improve the quality of online gaming.

-To supporting the model of continual updates Bohemia has set forth with its staple products like Team Fortress 2.

WE BELIEVE:

-The release of Arma 2: Operation Arrowhead as a stand-alone sequel will split the communities and decrease the quality of multiplayer gaming.

-The announced content of Arma 2: Operation Arrowhead does not warrant a stand-alone, full-priced sequel and should instead become updates (free or otherwise) for Arma 2.

-Arma 2 has not yet received the support and content which Bohemia has repeatedly stated will be delivered.

-The release of Arma 2: Operation Arrowhead will make Arma 2 an obsolete purchase and inferior piece of software after only one year since release.

WE REQUEST:

-That Bohemia honor its commitment to release ongoing periodic content for Arma 2.

-That Arma 2: Operation Arrowhead not be released as a stand-alone, full-priced sequel but as either a free update to Arma 2 or an expansion with full compatibility with basic Arma 2 owners.

-That Arma 2 owners be given discounts for Arma 2: Operation Arrowhead, should it be released as premium content.



Therefore, we - the members of this Arma 2: Operation Arrowhead Boycott - promise to abstain from the purchase of Arma 2: Operation Arrowhead until our requests are addressed.
