Hi Lazy^Ghost! Welcome, looking forward to playing with you on the server.

All the instruction you need are located in these three guides:

How to install the game and the addons:
http://www.ciahome.net/forum/index.php?topic=1547.0
(Yes, you need all the addons that doesn't say "Optional" on the "Needed addons" section)

How to install and set Teamspeak:
http://www.ciahome.net/forum/index.php?topic=1585.0

How to install and use OFPWatch
http://www.ciahome.net/forum/index.php?topic=1584.0

You don't need the "All seeing eye". There is no problem with connecting to our server through the game interface or through OFPWatch.

Yes, You can download all of the addons now and install them once the game arrives. Once you have the game, read the first guide, it contains everything you need to know regarding installation.

Should you encounter any problems, we are here for you.

Hi, you don't need "The Eye", OFP comes with gamespy built-in, you don't have to install anything else than the exstras u want e.g OFPW and TS Wink

Highly. The WGL one, however, is for testing purposes only.
The most significant optional download is Sputnik's modifcation pack which is described here:
