I'm 100% convinced the civilian AI is programmed to intercept your vehicles and stand in front of them. The enemy AI does the opposite unless you approach them from behind. I've resorted to trying to fake the civilians out on approach because its the only way to avoid them. Love this scenario though. Back when I used to play ArmA I lived off WLA because it was the only mode like it, but it hasn't been developed on since Saok moved on to his own project. Antistasi definitely breathes more life into the game.

[@JackArden]

It seems that way, almost like they were programmed to try and dodge vehicles but they messed up and they go the wrong way instead. The worst example of this is I think when soldiers don't walk past your vehicle unless you're moving, but when you move they get closer to the car and you eventually run them over.

[@JackArden]

Zeroing is the range at which the bullet should be expected to hit square in the middle of the sights before dropping below where you're aiming. For example, you might zero a rifle to 300m- wherever you aim, the bullet should reasonably hit directly where your sights line up. Before 300m, the bullet will hit high, past 300m the bullet will drop and hit low. It's used commonly alongside a rangefinder so that you can aim easier at a target over a long distance without having to compensate for bullet drop.

[@kaj6385]

Hey Jack, me and my friends have started an antistasi play through (the 3 of us) We spent a few days figuring out controls (first time Arma 3) and I was wondering if you knew what a good way would be to gain money easily in this game, and what missions would be appropriate for our skill level

[@JackArden]

The best way to get money would be through passive income from towns supporting you. Missions like support, logistics and assassination would be the best as support gives you the best rewards (mainly town support) and the other two are very easy. Logistics usually just needs you to jump into a transport and drive away (or get blown up) and assassination just needs you to kill one person and it doesn't matter if you die past that.

[@quill5579]

This is a great video, and your voice is so damned silky smooth and soothing. Also can I point out, the "most realistic modern shooter" has worse ai and squad controls that ghost recon wildlands. And that was a piece of shiet to control ye squad.

[@JackArden]

The AI can definitely be quite complicated, they're "good" in the sense that they can headshot someone stood in thick foliage from 3km out with nothing but a 9mm pistol but they're not the easiest to get used to controlling- that's for damn sure.

[@Sire.English]

If you spend some time with them, doing little Sandboxy-Openworld scenarios and sht and getting used to the controls they actually become semi-alright to easy to control and become really neat-0 to use.

This looks really interesting, however I didn't quite catch the game configuration that you were using (due to my terrible hearing). I assume this is game version 1.90, Antistasi 1.0 and RHS 0.4(?). Are those correct and were you using other mods as well?

[@JackArden]

I'm unsure of the game version as this was quite a while back, but I'm using 1.3.5 Antistasi and the RHS mods were from the collection available on the steam workshop, the USAF, GREF and AFRF ones in particular.

That's mostly right, Barbolani was still involved in the 1.8 branch, however those versions of the mod were abandoned due to instabilities. Barbolani imported the warlords of the pacific mod to start a new branch of this mission, which is the one I played in this series.

[@patriotic-panda]

I have found a way to break this game mode, if you have a low enough war level and aggression. You can just drive up to a crate with a tru k (assuming it’s not too far from the road) Load it into the truck and drive off with it no questions asked, you can do similar with towing vehicles however if you deploy tow ropes you’ll break incognito, so it’s recommended to have them deployed before you go incognito so you don’t get reported.

[@JackArden]

That's one I've used several times in my Antistasi content so far! In fact I think it was the first thing I did in the second series, the starting gear was a great help

[@NWA-TjalfeTooStonedToAim]

If you dress full civilian and use a civilian pickup truck you can drive up to a Outpost ammo box and step out undercover while there is a full manned outpost and 2 extra squads around and they wont react to you loading crate and drive off with it while never breaking undercover. And by placing a offroad Lookout Post at a spot that allows fast travel you can then use that to fast travel back and forth between HQ and Spot to speed up farmning gear.

So when you zero your weapon is there another way to do it instead of page down or a specific number? It won’t let me use assault rifles and zero below 350m

[@JackArden]

Are you using the same kind of AK I was there by any chance? I believe the lowest zeroing setting is 350m, so you actually have to zero it UP to get anything lower, so you go up from 350m to 100m. It's weird I know

[@rustic_russian]

Jack Arden I didn’t know if it could go any lower we are monitoring the drive to make sure it works for a few days before I bring it back so I haven’t had time to try and specifically try and see if anything is different with the zeroing. I’ll look and check tomorrow when I can.

[@JackArden]

The version I'm using is linked in the description of all my antistasi videos, so if you follow that link you'll be using the same one I am. The 1.8 version was an abandoned branch, the mission file was reverted back to 1.0 so that it was more stable and had fewer bugs, then development started back on top of it. We're currently at 1.3.5 in the main branch, with 1.4 to be released sometime in the future. The 1.9 version is a revival of the 1.8 branch by some of the old developers of antistasi. It's not yet on a full release, though it's possible to build the pre-release files into a mission. I think I'd recommend you play 1.3.5 (the version I'm using, again in the description of all the videos in this series) because it's the most up to date version on a full release.

[@JackArden]

Thank you! My best advice is don't be tempted to just kick the mission into all-out war early on. It's a really good idea to gain the support of several towns through missions first, this allows you to get a sensible starting income while at the same time not gaining aggression you can't offset easily. When you get past that point, target resource dumps and factories, then find ways to destroy enemy vehicles whenever possible (they'll come in the QRFs to your attacks so station AA and AT around the area, for example). A big mistake I see people make (including myself in this playthrough) is not getting a solid hold over the enemy's resources before trying to drain them of their overpowered attack forces, so you get massive tank columns and air strike forces coming every time you tickle an enemy soldier. Even when you consider the mission is balanced for 8 players, the QRFs can become ridiculously large!

[@larsk_t3575]

can you save the progress and load it later again or do you need to make a whole play through?

[@JackArden]

Yes you can save your progress. Go to the noticeboard in your base then open the game options, there is a button there to make a persistent save. Next time you start the mission, you have the option to load your last save.

Yes, go to your map/clipboard in your base and open the options. You can do a persistent save from there. Antistasi doesn't support the standard save system due to the way it's structured

[@rickw7523]

Hi, great video, and entertaining series. I've been playing antistasi for myself for a while now but keep getting hammered by the cars with machineguns on them/mraps and the humvees, basically missions go wel but these vehicles absolutely annihilate my squad as soon as they have vision on us. Its extremely frustrating to succesfully do a tough mission and then instantly getting obliterated by a humvee. any tips?

[@JackArden]

You should have access to some basic AT launchers in your arsenal at the start of the game. You could take a couple teammates and give them launchers to help you with vehicles. They can only fire in one direction at a time so whoever isn't pinned can hit it. If you are using RHS and have disposable launchers, these are so light it's always worth packing a few per squad

[@rickw7523]

@@JackArden Thanks for your reply, You are right, I allways take the mk4 with me, issue is not really that i can't destroy them. it's more the fact that they seemingly spawn, flank your location and hammering you down before/ at the time you spot them.

[@JackArden]

Ah sorry I didn't quite get that from the first comment. Best thing to keep in mind is where these vehicles spawn. QRFs spawn at enemy positions, meaning they can come down the road from any enemy controlled outpost/airbase/etc. When planning your operations, keep in mind the area the enemy is likely to counterattack from and take measures to meet this, such as laying mines on strips of road that a QRF is likely to travel on or by setting up scouts to spot these vehicles before they are in range. Just be sure not to make preparations too far away, because enemy movements can be simulated up to a certain distance before the vehicles actually spawn into the game.

[@marshmallow-ears5716]

I enjoyed this, I'm looking to purchase a new PC and this game soon to play this mode, looks like a lot of fun!

[@JackArden]

Sounds exciting, one thing to look out for is that this game is very CPU intensive, particularly for single-core processing. While a lot of budget or older processors may be good enough for most games, they likely won't give you a good experience with this one.

[@The_Tank_Destroyer69420]

Well it's the session one of antistati. Can you tell me a really good assult rifle in RHS USAF faction which has good accuracy and less in weight with a decent amount of damage.

[@JackArden]

I think you might just want to stick with the M4 or M27 if that's what you're after. The USAF assault rifles are all pretty similar in terms of how quickly they'll drop someone as they all take the same ammunition and mostly the same modifications too. Anything with a higher damage output from that faction will use heavier ammo, like the EBR.

[@The_Tank_Destroyer69420]

@@JackArden what about the m4a1 Block II

[@JackArden]

If you like the look of that one, then sure. They're really not all that different due to using the same ammo

[@thelumious6980]

Can anyone help with this issue: My map seems to not be working the same as what it does within this video, i.e, there are no red circles around enemy controlled places. What other mods do I need, or can someone offer a solution please

[@JackArden]

The red circles only appear in the setup of the mission, where you pick your starting location. They are supposed to act as a guide for where is and isn't safe to set up. Once you close the map by either picking a base location or closing it to keep the default location, red circles won't appear anymore.

[@Fox-Osc]

No worries, I was sorting out today's uploads when you commented anyway. I've only played the beta of old man so far, I thought it was a pretty interesting mission and I'm going to play the full thing at some point

[@Fox-Osc]

I've played a few hours of it, pretty fun taking out garrisons or patrols, can get a huge amount of gear pretty easily looting. Just stockpile and sell to the rebels lol.

[@dentro_can1923]

how do you move headquarters? also how did you buy a vehicle? i only had 100 euros in the game edit: me: plays for some minutes and haven't recruited and buyed some vehicles yet task: * just got created and it's about kill the traitor * me: *you say what*

[@JackArden]

You move the base by scrolling on the flag, selecting HQ management and then there's an option in there to move HQ to another zone. Vehicles are bought at the flag too, just scroll on that and the option is obvious. Money is usually earned to begin with by completing missions and then later in the game via tax income in towns you control.

[@dentro_can1923]

@@JackArden yeah.. i was an absolute idiot, which mission should i do first? also im very new to arma. i mess around with editor. can't even read bearings and spot a single enemy yet.

[@JackArden]

Best place to start would be logistics missions, you either have to steal/destroy ammo transports or complete city supply missions. The ammo transports will give you a nice selection of equipment for starting out, but they're always guarded so I'd advise stealing it while undercover unless you're confident in taking on a larger squad. The city supply missions are almost assured to give you enough support in a town to gain control over it, which will start giving you money and HR over time. Keep in mind small towns on their own won't supply HR, you need an excess of 100 supporters across the map to gain HR

Hi, can I ask how to make the enemy's last location appear on the map? is it a mod?

[@JackArden]

Not a mod, that's part of the base game. It often gets turned off by accident with custom difficulty settings, so check your parameters to see if anything's disabled it.

I'm trying to play pit I don't know how to move the hq stuff and how to talk to the AI hq stuff I can't get the missions menu up

[@JackArden]

To interact with objects you usually use your scroll wheel, so moving HQ objects is done by scrolling on them to "move asset". Giving orders to AI is done using the function keys (F1, F2 etc) at the top of the keyboard and then scrolling in the new menu which appears to pick the order you want to give. Some orders change based on what you are looking at. The mission menu is opened by scrolling over Petros (the NPC in your HQ) and opening the menu from your scroll options like you did with moving HQ objects. I have a couple guides up for antistasi which go into these kinds of things in more detail if you think they would be useful for you: Antistasi quick start guide- kzbin.info/www/bejne/aZqkYmCIh56cq9E Antistasi AI tutorial- kzbin.info/www/bejne/e5ClYmiflp5jbq8

[@sebax17yt10]

what mod are u using im trying to play it but it is saying "incompatible mod" help me pls

[@JackArden]

If you're using any mods which alter AI behaviour or change the medical system it will conflict with the mission file's custom handling of these things. Antistasi recommends you play with ACE, however ACE is not compatible with antistasi and will force you out of the mission; which is what I assume your conflicting mod is. I am playing with the following mods enabled: Advanced movement - Allows for enhanced vaulting mechanics such as climbing over fences, climbing up small ledges, running jumps over fences etc. steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=333310405 RHS: united states armed forces (USAF) - adds a lot of new vehicles, weapons and gear based on the US military and replaces the USAF troops, vehicles and loadouts in Antistasi steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=843577117 RHS: armed forces of the Russian federation (AFRF) - adds a lot of new vehicles, weapons and gear based on the Russian military and replaces the AFRF troops, vehicles and loadouts in Antistasi steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=843425103 RHS: GREF - expands on the USAF and AFRF mods by adding fictional and real vehicles, weapons and gear based on many independent factions around the world.

@@JackArden ACE is compatible, You just have to disable ACE medical in the options. Also, great work on the video! Edit: Also, m4a1 block 2 is not broken, downed enemies always take more shots to kill than normal enemies, and when they are surrendering during the animation they are invicible. I use this gun during my antistasi play through and I haven't had any problems with it.

@@czapeusz1858 Are you sure they're invincible while surrendering? I'm fairly certain I've killed a few surrendering enemies "accidentally". I'll take a look at ACE medical for the next playthrough so thank you for the heads up on that! Apologies for the late reply too, for some reason your comment got caught in KZbin's spam filter. I'm going to assume it's because you edited your comment right after posting it? It's strange what that does and doesn't flag

[@czapeusz1858]

@@JackArden No problem ^^ Sorry for my late reply too, and I'm 75% sure that while they are putting thier weapons away and hands behind thier heads they are invicible, but when the animation ends and they are standing there they become mortal again, I will test it tho, and regarding the ACE medical you can disable it when entering the game and the turn it back on, antistasi will work but you will have to restart the game every time you get killed since ACE medical will break the respawn feature. Have a great day!

do you know if there is a way to do only reb vs gov in the other version of antistasi (the one that supports ACE)

Which version in specific are you talking about? I know the 1.8 version is rebels vs the Russian government with NATO support available though I'm not sure how you'd reverse the roles to fight NATO in that one- I haven't played around with this game's editor very much.

@@caden8255 I think that editing the mission file to replace the units yourself would be the only way in that case. You should be able to call in supply drops from NATO using your support points, with a higher support value dropping more equipment.

What difficulty did you choose at the begining?

I didn't want to run out of money to get vehicles early on (walking everywhere isn't exactly good content) so I went with easy for the extra resources. AI difficulty is managed by both the game options (my AI is a bit over average difficulty) and increases over time with the aggression counter since they deploy steadily better soldiers as this increases.
