Looking for 1.99 players for co-op.

I want to play co-op but ONLY 1.99, reason being I got Arma CWA via Steam Trade. A lot of people are saying this has a somewhat connection to another open world game called Operation Flathpoint. Im also confiused on this if people can give me answers on this I would be grateful thank you :)

Your post is kinda confusing, but the deal with Operation Flashpoint and CWA is that they are the same game. As Operation Flashpoint, it was developed by Bohemia Interactive and published by Codemasters. However shortly after, Bohemia and Codemasters had a falling out and went their seperate ways. Codemasters had the rights to make games under the Operation Flashpoint name, and Bohemia could make games using the Real Virtuality engine used for Operation Flashpoint and later the ArmA games.

Codemasters made two mediocre sequels to Operation Flashpoint in 2009 and 2011, and Bohemia was upset that the Operation Flashpoint name was being lended to these below average games. So in 2011, they rebranded Operation Flashpoint as ArmA: Cold War Assault for digital download. A patch was introduced that aside from other things, rebranded the game to its new name, patch 1.99. However, lots of players who got the game before this happened haven't downloaded this patch, and thus the confusion began.
