ARMA II: Wastland

For those of you that have ARMA II and ARMA II: Operation Arrowhead,  I would suggest downloading this mod for free.   It's called Wasteland and is a large  multiplayer, open sandbox, military shooter.  Usually the servers have approx 50-60 players on 3 different teams; Opfor, Blufor, or Independent.  If you are on Opfor or Blufor, each player on your team has a little square over their head so you know who they are, and you can voice chat over the server.  If you are an Indy, then you can join up with other Indies and chat was those players, but not all of the Indies. 

There are vehicles everywhere which have guns in them, and there are also stores.  So, when you do die, and you will, obtaining a new weapon after respawn isn't an issue.  Also, if you are on a team, you generally have  base built using the numerous base parts throughout the map.  People bring in weapons caches and vehicles to the bases, so you can really gear up.  Objectives pop up every so often for your team to go after (downed chopper, tank, light infantry vehicle, weapons cache, etc...) and you have to kill NPC's and whoever else decides to go after the objective.  Or you can spend your time attacking an enemy base and trying to take their shit.

Here is a youtube video that shows you everything I said above:

If you have ARMAII, download Play With 6 and use that to install the mod.  You will choose the mod in the filter, and then click "update" at the bottom left.  It will install it on it's own.

For those of you that need to redownload ARMA II, after reinstall you have to start ARMA II, exit, then start ARMA II: OPeration Arrowhead and then exit.
