ok, a very short review from my first hour with it.
1. No activation. Just serial. Installation process looks like Arma1.
2. The menues are all in german. In one of the scenarios i looked, my(marine) comrades spoke english.
3. Buggy copyprotection...sometimes it says put in your original disk ,after a second try the game starts.
4. Message after install. "Couldn´t install Direct x". Already have an actual version.... no problems so far. (Using Vista 64 Ultimate)
5. This game really looks amazing. (I played with the postprocessing filter from off to very high...no stuttering so far...turned it to low...i like it sharp )
6. As a first day OFP Player i got some " Welcome home OFP" feeling.
Did a short fly with a civilian helicopter....all others were locked. (See link on the bottom)
7.Nice weather effects (rain, lightning). Didnt saw a an animal in those few minutes (except birds).
8. Did a short swim...lost my AK (in the water?). Hell i don´t know.
9. Running ingame feels good.
10. Yes there is blood (even in the german version ) i cant wait till everthing is patched into english , i speak german, but it sounds terrible (in games....except wolfenstein)
Didnt try a heavy firefight till yet,just exploring, but what i saw felt & looked good.
Sorry for not writing more...my time is limited today,will provide more info later.
Some pics for you...link

PickUpArtist from what I know menus and subtitles are German only, voices are English.
Censoring was answered a bit above, there's blood at least.

Quote: | German site PC Games reports on buginess in the German edition of ARMA II, Bohemia Interactive Studios' military shooter sequel slated for release tomorrow. Word is a patch is being readied for release tomorrow along with the release, and here is what Bohemia Interactive CEO Marek Spanel says about the situation:
We realize that the campaign maybe doesn't stand to your expectations but we hope that all the improvements made for the first patch will already make it much closer to what you hoped it will be initially. I just played German version 1.00 today to try some of the situations you mentioned enjoyed it despite I found a problem here or there. I'm personally not humiliated by my team mates sometimes fighting better than I do, and if something goes wrong or unexpected this game is so complex that often there is a way to find another solution of your current mission. Also, what is quite unusual is that some things happen completely differently every time I try a mission. I think the bugs do not kill the open nature of the game and that sheer scope, amount of content or beautiful country of Chernarus will more than compensate for these issues. |

Still, can't wait to try it out!.

I find his up-front attitude refreshing in comparison to many other game-companies denial/silence.
I also think fisk should be unbanned.

Doesn't really matter yet due to those FADE triggers they always use, game can be played but if the serial isn't valid you'll get all sorts of odd side effects as shown in OfP and ArmA 1.
(Might give enough time to use the German version as a form of demonstration though.)
