ARMA Has A 100 Pirates For Every 3 Legitimate Players

According to Bohemia Interactive's CEO Marek Španěl, the ratio of pirates to legit game buyers is worse than 100 to 3.

"Our statistics from multiplayer show that for every three legitimate buyers playing their game in multiplayer, there are 100 (failed) attempts to play with a pirated version," he said about their ARMA series.

"This indicates that piracy is an extremely widespread problem on PC, and it's also really worrying for us as a mid-sized, independent, PC-oriented developer. We do not have any such data for single-player, but I'm afraid there the ratio of pirates to legitimate gamers is undoubtedly much worse."
