Arma II... anybody playing the Campaign?

Before I take the plunge, I like to have a little background history on this. I like tactical games but I dislike Non-User friendly games. I played it for a few moments at a friends house but didn't like it much because of the fact that it had WAY to many key binding options that look like they were very similar to each other.

Of the few I remember were:

Aim Down
Aim Down Toggle
Zoom In
Zoom In Toggle
Zoom Out
Zoom Out Toggle

To me they should all do the same but if they don't, doesn't it look like to many options? I mean, once I zoom in, I want to be able to use the same mouse/kb button to zoom out. Also, aim down is the same as zoom in... at least to me.

Is the campaign worth this hassle? and believe me, its been a while since I have played a good FPS campaign so I am jonesing for something else at the moment that I will try almost anything.

if you like running around around for hours on end with NOTHING to do but try and remember which key your supposed to press to do what and like a game that takes "realism" FAR too far then its the game for you

personally id like to take my copy over to the developers house and shove it where the sun dont shine , it was buggy in the demo , the original release was buggy and now after a flurry of pointless patches its still buggy.

the gameply videos they released before the games launch are the best thing about the game

and YES IM VERY BITTER!!!!!!!!!!! :sa:

I tried it but it sucked so bad I just deleted the game. I'm waiting for Operation Flash point Dragon Rising. It's also being made for consoles so there can't be that many buttons. It looks better anyways. Arma sucks.
