It's never going to be a replacement for an evening of shouting "help" but it sounds like the Co-Op stuff is brilliant. Most of Rissignol's complaints is with the team-based AI single player but co-op multiplayer is where it's at. Have a look and a think. Worth a go as a get-together evening game?

definitely looks good, will try the demo
That review probably says it's not a game for me...
"Arma II is a game that rewards practice and organised play. Dropping in to play a random bout of virtual paintball is okay for cheap kicks, but it can be monstrously frustrating"
Me and frustrating games don't tend to play nicely together...
Frustrations with the interface created mess after mess: I’d jump into a helicopter, and order my team to do the same. Except one of them gets into a nearby car. What? Only half way across the vast landscape of Chernarus do I realise that he is following us on the ground. I have to wait for 10 minutes for him to catch up.
Made me laugh
Sounds like us playing Battlefield Vietnam.
If they'd gone plummeting into the ground in firey death attempting a rather cocky mid-air pick up *that* would be like us in BF:V. ;)
What are you trying to say about my flying?
God I miss BFV.
