replyAlice, so is the STEAM release for this ARMA 2 expansion already patched with 1.02 or do they anticipate having it patched to that soon? Thanks for any info.

i'm confused too.

The current Steam build is v1.52. I don't know for certain but odds are that the Steam version has been that all along, as they can issue updates to that after going gold but can't with physical copies.

OA is 1.52 at release. Though i believe in Germany it was released as 1.51 since it was released a couple weeks ago. Hopefully patching through steam will do better. If OA is like the original game then you should be able to use the retail patches on it, even if its steam.

Not with this patch, at least. Apparently it makes the game think it's a retail copy and freak out.
