Death Before Dismount - ShackTac Arma 3

[@Siege223Gaming]

I have not witnessed a video, as far as I can remember, that ended on such a funny yet sad note. Poor Lonewolf.

[@dslyecxi]

This is a reupload, as the original was mysteriously truncated by KZbin after release. I've never seen that happen before, so yay, exciting new things to be concerned about with KZbin! Woohoo! :|

[@MurderCrowAwdio]

I watched the original. It was same duration.. What am i missing?

[@josephstorer6022]

Read the comment you just replied to. :D

[@FlinnGaidin]

Thanks for the re-upload, Dslyecxi, I could only see 11:43 of the previous upload.

[@Qarlo99]

MurderCrow: You must have watched it early--before it was mysteriously cut by KZbin. I keep my watched ST videos in a separate folder, and the stored version was cut to 11:44 in length at some time after I watched the full version soon after initial release.

[@Kgoozmooz]

Dslyecxi - i thought i was goin crazy man! i was so disappointed last night cuz i was really lookin forward to watchin this one glad its back up! yaaaay

[@Myuutsuu85]

"Send a letter to my wife. I love her." Damn.. T_T That hit suprisingly hard. But that afterwards, i could not help but laugh a little.

[@sequorroxx]

47:00 when your tanks are retreating passed you, it might be a good idea to follow them.

[@Finity0ne]

I know driving in ARMA can be its own challenge, but I couldn't stop laughing @17:10

[@JohnMcMahon.]

Little bunny rabbit came up the hill @12:30 to investigate the tanks, then 60 seconds later tanks Two and Three got their tracks knocked out, (mobility killed)..... I think that bunny was enemy commando with track busting carrots.

[@Arcamean]

Now we need to know if anyone on that team was named Elmer or Fudd. :p

[@Diluted37]

The driver of that tank at 17:26 drive into the water LOL

[@wallyhiggens5369]

thanks for incorporating that last bit at the end

[@NLDraakje]

Another successful mission, there are survivors!

[@WillusKillus]

The AquaTank experience at 17:20

[@Panzershreck22]

45:41 I'm guessing that red mist was a direct hit on a crew member?

[@YukarisGearReviews]

Probably hit the gunner through the side/back of the turret where the armor was thin, yeah.

[@eststar1]

that road kill at 48:40

[@duckman12569]

17:12 watt...

[@ahmadaffan5468]

52:52 he made me cry

[@generalnango]

Why are BMP's charging abrams? crackpot command

[@Autofire-nw5ty]

Great tank battle, Lonewolf died on his feet....

[@TheSovietPenguin]

Amazing mission.

[@usmccain]

I would love to get in to this. it sounds like fun:D

[@AHSValor]

12:30 Bunnyyyyyyy!!! :D

[@notapplicable4637]

Dslyecxi - Is it intentional that this is only available in 720p or lower resolutions, rather than your usual 1440p?

[@dslyecxi]

Yes - the original is still up (unlisted) because I want to see if it ever fixes itself. Since I don't want to re-render the entire video, I have to use a different render I already had at a lower resolution. It's unfortunate, but it's less of a ball-ache than trying to re-render, and it preserves the original for future scientific purposes.

[@TABloomstine]

Ha! You said ball-ache...

[@headrockbeats]

+Dslyecxi - Out of curiosity, has it fixed itself?

[@dslyecxi]

Headrock Yeah, after a few days it did.

[@headrockbeats]

***** I guess that's reassuring. Or rather, less terrifying than before. :P Thanks for answering.

[@Diluted37]

48:50 the driver ran him over

[@malleygz3991]

Mighty Beast yeah, then asked the Humvee to go back and pick him up lol

[@Arcamean]

There's fucked, Cluster Fucked, and lolfucked, I'd say this qualified as the latter and then some.

[@Bendejo301]

Probably a dumb question, but can you drop the flat-racks on those HEMTT LHS's?

[@dslyecxi]

Not by default.

[@deadeye003]

2 TRACKS 1 CANNON

[@adamwinsbury3090]

hi dslyecxi

[@Knuth938]

they ran phoenix the fuck over! Harsh!

[@Johrdan360]

no respawn,that sucks

[@T2Gibbon]

Alt title: drive me closer, i want to hit them with my sword... The AI for tanks is just soo bad it's cringeworthy. Rifleman behaviour just doesn't cut it for them. Having the radio on while you act as observer is definitely more enjoyable to watch imo.

[@schinsky6833]

charging heavy tanks with bmps... this AI makes me so sad.

[@Covargo]

Wish he wouldn't mute everyone else, once you've seen a few of these spectate clips it gets really boring. Shame really you do your cam thing but most viewers get bored and close the video, it be nice to hear everyone else in the deathchats sometimes it can be rather amusing.

[@dslyecxi]

Who are you to speak for "most viewers"? If you have an opinion, that's great - you're entitled to it - but please don't pass your opinion off as the opinion of "most viewers". If you don't like the cinematic parts of my videos, by all means, skip them. There's zero chance of me keeping spectator chat on as the norm during them. Analytics pretty clearly show that there's plenty of interest not only in the spectator parts of my videos, but also the cinematic-only videos. Most importantly, though, it's something I greatly enjoy doing, and that trumps every other reason.

[@Covargo]

Hello i'm Liam. I'm just pointing out that plenty of people in the world/on youtube have humor and sometimes just watching a near soundless clip drains humor from ones soul. There aren't many KZbinrs that do Arma videos like you and few seem to have a sense of humor (at least show it) everyone is hardcore no smiling allowed and there's only so much you can watch before you look elsewhere but find nothing so i'm sorry if i hit a nerve.

[@Covargo]

Or perhaps your tone was more like a teacher.

[@dslyecxi]

See, that's fine - that's your opinion and I totally respect it. If you convey it that way, there's no issue whatsoever - but saying "most viewers" is a different story, right? I get where you're coming from, but what I enjoy is being able to capture the drama and intensity of the situation, along with the natural in-game (non-spectator) humor that comes along with it. I find that much more compelling, and it's something that really draws me to do it in the first place.

[@Covargo]

But you miss the reactions of the others who were killed and are still watching the carnage, You did a video called Bridgekeepers 6 days ago that was one those videos that i 'believed' would've been better (aka funny) if we/i could hear the others who were killed. I always hope there were other people who may have recorded the whole thing deathchat and all but i never find anything that's when i wonder why you couldn't do from time to time like a video a year. Still hoping for another one of those humvee hectic patrol missions you do they're funny.

[@UseAndGo]

What on earth killed you and your tank crew I seriously couldnt see ?

[@FoundNoNickname]

T-90 due east.

[@UseAndGo]

God damned I really didnt see that, but thanks mate for pointing it out.
