Everyone on KZbin: This is the best scenario for SOLO players. Also Everyone on KZbin: Playing with 4 or 5 other people.

[@blackoutlol2857]

I genuinely thought that was modded for a minute but if this is actually base game that’s sick! Can’t wait to play it myself reforger definitely needs more single player content!

[@Johnnytobassco]

i agree bro some good single player missions are needed

[@blackoutlol2857]

@@Johnnytobassco without a doubt! Really wish the older games (arma 2 and 3) were ported to console but I know I’d probably be disappointed.

@@gamertardguardian1299 yeah I heard about that would’ve played it but I don’t think it was ported to my console :/

[@MikeAirforce111]

Had a go at it yesterday - felt almost like playing OFP Resistance..... All I miss is the (understandable) radio dialogues and narrative of a campaign.... When they decide to make a campaign using this engine, its going to be really impressive! Perhaps in Arma 4 (hope for a reforger campaign though :D )..

[@megabug1019]

Amazing breakdown of the new update and gameplay! Can’t thank you enough Ironbeard for bringing this game to light. Looking forward to seeing this update on stable platform!

[@jdj90]

Vanilla Reforger is perfect in my eyes; no need for mods. Can't wait for fully destructible environments.

Im playing on coop Server with modern weapons. Damn, games so beautiful and all the modern stuff works flawless

[@MAACotton]

This looks exactly like what I've been wanting. Reforger got me in to Arma. Tried out ANISTASI but I really only want to play in Reforger. Excited to try this

[@EpicJerni]

Thanks for making this video. Thos is something I have really been waiting on. After hundreds of hours on Arma 3 Antistasi, I have really been craving something similar that works for reforger.

[@bradsheap7886]

After playing this game mode for a few days I can definitely say this mode holds replayability better than anything out rn on arma reforger

[@skysoftware4581]

It absolutley baffles me as why they made the decsisiion to release this mission with absolute no way to save your progress. so frustrating as no point playing this game this mechanic is enabled.

[@endotimez9086]

I started it. Promptly got lost, flipped my jeep then got lit up by a patrol. At least I got to admire the beautiful scenery while bleeding out.

[@gucci_falc]

another great vid ironbeard ✌️ love the content and as always thanks for keeping us informed :))

[@glennpeterson1357]

22:10 man, the driving mechanics in AR are SO much better than A3! I just love it! Surely there’ll be an Everon rally mini-game at some point?! Great vid! Love your stuff, mate, keep it coming! ❤️

[@hanswurst9437]

Playing reforger on a coop Server with modern arsenal...really hard to go Back to Arma3.

I hope they add vehicle combat. I want to Use my weaopon in a vehicle.

[@glennpeterson1357]

@@hanswurst9437 💯 same here, I’ve got 3,000+ hours on A3. Barely been back since AR came out. AR is 1% of A3, but that 1% is SO good!

[@dnt_alert5806]

I hope they fix the jank, driving over a bump in multiplayer can make you lag all over the place and crash

[@WATCHER71B]

So the game play in the video is not the solo version mentioned in the title. It Multiplayer game play. In the solo game no progress is ever saved.....so you cant play for a few hours. shutdown and then comeback and pick up from where you left off....Why? .....Who does that?......Major oversight.

[@blums9530]

playing solo online is what they mean.

[@iplaygames8090]

if you local host it on your device through the scenario icon you can save

[@SuperSix4]

I personally have nightmares about my one solo combat op I’ve ran idk why everyone thinks they aren’t a challenge. Now in the multiplayer modded server im on I’ll admit the Russian AI is definitely goofy but when I fought them alone it was terrifying honestly. Granted I haven’t gone solo since playing multiplayer (PvE only for me) but it would seem like every time I even dared to make my presence known let alone taking a shot or two with my m16 then I would have to absolutely circle, displace and generally run for like 5 minutes just for a chance for the AI not to randomly hide in a bush and then blast me when I take one step wrong. Attacking alone is a huge challenge compared to having 20-80 players backing you up haha just saying.

[@rampantporcupineandfriends3793]

Another game that this new game mode reminds me of is Ghost recon wildlands and it's sequal breakpoint. Those games have similar mechanics. Namely the hidout system, and friendly ai to help with some objectives. It is very cool to see and is exactly the kind of thing i want from arma pve

[@raidermaxx2324]

Have you ever played the Ghost Recon Breakpoint First person mod?

[@rampantporcupineandfriends3793]

@raidermaxx2324 No I have not. Do you enjoy it?

@raidermaxx2324 That sounds like something that would be fun to try. thanks for letting me know about it.

[@YouDeserveToDie666]

@@rampantporcupineandfriends3793 I highly recommend Breakpoint + First Person Mod + Spartan Mode (a mod that makes the game much more similar to an actual tactical shooter, enemies have sharper senses, damage output is increased, etc...). It's very very immersive and you can also sorta roleplay it. Also it can be brutally hard.

[@gjdriessen1]

Gunplay looks and sounds good

[@gucci_falc]

would be good if the rendered the grass/textures through the binocs / scopes. would stop you from being able to pick people apart so easy 😮

[@ivan5604]

Would be nice if AI couldn’t see through grass at closer ranges since we can’t see through it

[@RedRobin84]

Unfortunately you cannot save your progress locally. It's reset on load. So, not suitable for SP yet. Unless, you'll rent a server.

[@hanswurst9437]

Reforger is so beautiful ❤ Love the amount of detail and so much harder to see your targets.

[@EchoLeague2]

With some gore this will go pretty hard

Awesome

[@camilolopez8638]

When it's suppose to they will add all those new features on the normal version? There's like a exact date or approx?

[@harveynash7846]

Me & my buddy discovered this gem this weekend, after playing TONS of DRO in Arma 3. I was wondering tho, is there any way to save progress and come back to it? Or do we have to start fresh each time?

[@bradenfredrick2720]

A ghost recon mod type thing would be sick (where ai have blind spots still and not aim bot)(also i mean like shaders wise to make the game look better) it'd also be cool if they made it to where you can give ai voice commands through your mic that would be sick

[@TruthPrevails24]

def seems better, i just want them to be decent at driving, flying would be cool but im sure that will be a while

[@maradona108]

Curious to see how this AI will compare to the Arma 2 + Smart AI Mix one

[@swiftlyswiv8227]

Hell I just play solo I used to play with my fiancé until she left a couple weeks ago. So I just run with random squads and still have some laughs and a fun time.

Yeah. This mode is available on the Xbox version now. It plays pretty much the same as well. It changes the feel of Reforger completely.

[@anthonyscott3659]

Awesome.... now we need this AI with a reforger antistasi mod

[@Bryan-uw1ny]

Nice video.

[@danielmolnar9137]

Does anyone know if there’s helicopters in the combat ops mode?

[@cappinteddy3228]

So is this an offline co-op thing as well? I feel like that was the biggest flaw on release. You had limited singleplayer stuff, then the online servers. But no inbetween for you to team up with just a few friends to have fun. If thats the case this is even more awesome than I originally thought.

[@jasonvega9942]

how exactly do you play solo? scenarios menu and host your own private server?

[@OrigionalCigarette]

PVE and PVPVE has a *lot* of potential in Reforger, I'd love to see the Arma 3 "Capture The Island" Gamemode added, where Blufor (or Opfor) go to sectors, Clear them, and finish the objectives, when they are put up against Blu/Opfor AI, Maybe even have some players that can join as the opposing team to defend the sector

[@jacknicolosi9309]

Is the ai better now on editor?

[@ethansmith4504]

Tried to play it solo way to hard for me but it was supper cool

[@IronBrutzler]

Played Operation Flashpoint back in the day and Operation Flashpoint Resistance was so cool. Trying to ambush convois without destroying them and then get the stuff before reinforcments are coming was such a great feeling. As i saw in the comments that this does not really work for solo players. Any workaround for it

Honestly, I cba to watch the whole video atm, so maybe you can answer this. Does combat ops offer ai squad members like that of Antistasi Ultimate in Arma 3? -EDIT: I am playing solo as I have no friends. x)

[@MrMightyZ]

I suddenly had an “Arma 1.1 solo campaign for XSX” in my recommended list. I don’t know why it’s taken over a year but I had no idea Arma was on XSX! I’ve even seen Arma videos in the last couple of years but not for Xbox. So now I’m subbing and dinging bells even with non Xbox channels. So erm… hi! Can anyone tell me if there are mods to make campaign more like an action shooter? Like (gulp) easier?

I am a bit nervous about the AI update. In most games where they try to make the AI enemies more challenging it just ends up being overpowered, hopefully that isn't the case here.

[@Vice1-4]

Ready or Not is the best example, I mean they destroyed that game.

[@thennicke]

Players are still harder to kill than AI. I want them to be roughly equal in power.

[@teodoreberbach3651]

If they have the same AI adjustment options in Reforger as they had in A3, AI could be made hyper-intelligent or hyper-lethal, or both. There are options for targeting, info transfer, tactics etc. in A3.

[@jayydickerson2891]

My issue is that ai can spot me from 1,000 meters in a bush with full camo, when I haven't even fired a shot. And then they can shoot the legs off a flea from a mile away. Even cracked players haven't ruined my gameplay as much as the ai seem to be. It's absurd.

No, no, this is single player my dude. So you can enjoy it alone or with friends. All you gotta do is have Arma Reforger Experimental installed.
