This is back to £23.99 for the last 24 hours of the winter sale. I am thinking of getting it but had a few questions as I don't know much about it. I am interested with the little I do know - i.e. slow paced and tactical and multiplayer focused ticks all the right boxes. I'm getting too old for twitchy arcade shooters.

1. Would I enjoy this if I can't get on comms or is it essential. In my house it's quite often the case that I can't use a mic these days as there is too much else going on and I rarely get quiet gaming time. I'm happy to follow orders and stick to teamwork though.

2. Is this more focused on co-op multiplayer or is there (active) competitive modes too?

It is worth it mate we love it, TS and mic are essential really but we can get away with it.  The way we mainly play is us v's the bots as they are rock hard.  We have tried competitive and our members were not that impressed.

Yea, you can't play Arma without a mic - comms are a must.
