Evolution of ARMA (2006-2021)

[@CliffuckingBooth]

Arma: Cold War Assault (aka Operation Flashpoint) came out in 2001. Should be on the very beginning. Re-release came out in 2011.

[@truepatriot6657]

& its campaign was best , totally felt like real war is going on

[@rookie693]

That explains why the 2011 looks like a ps1 era game with upsacling

[@AllSchoolGameplays]

I know what you're talking about. It was released as "Operation Flashpoint: Cold War Crisis" in 2001. In 2011 Bohemia Interactive re-released the game under the title ARMA: Cold War Assault. I suggested a second date because the first release had nothing to do with the name of Arma.

[@sandspar]

@@AllSchoolGameplays That's where we true believers got on, and it was the original devs. Cocaine to real world soldiers like me.

[@ennuifred]

Ofp Cwc was the first open world game I’ve played. And its still in my laptop today with countless self made editor missions. The happiness of searching addons and making editor mission never instead by any other arma versions.

[@mastoner20]

No one: Literally No one: ARMA: KARTS

[@CHRB-nn6qp]

​@@Fakinvietnamese Yes because we all know that the karts are the main selling point of the game.

only thing that stayed the exact in all the games was "MAN, 200 METRES, NORTH WEST!"

[@BamsyTheSergal]

and shooting people

[@thanie84]

damn I remember spending hours and hours playing ArmA when it came out in 2006, I was a huge fan of Operation Flashpoint so when ArmA came out I couldn't believe how advanced it was compared to OFP, I had so much fun with the editor, recreating missions out of war movies, damn it was so fun back then...

[@junglesoldier12]

Just curious, how come you never went back to Arma 2 or 3? I am literally obsessed with Arma 3 lol

[@CrzBonKerz21]

Obviously looks better, but what gets me is that the game essentially feels the same as it did almost 20 years ago.

[@CHRB-nn6qp]

Arma's gotten a smoother engine over the years, but yeah it's still pretty much the same. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

[@savagecanadian9659]

What about Arma Reforger?

[@herald1953]

for a 2001 game, CWA is an absolute masterpiece, i doubt any computer could run it at the time

[@AmauryChihuahua]

Back then it was apparently called "Operation: Flashpoint" It was runnable altough quite laggy tbh

[@raghuvirdey2252]

The one at 5.41 made me remember about that jet mission in BF 3. Arma indeed is one of the best military simulator game at this time. Can't wait for Arma 4...

The biggest issue with arma is most big gaming youtubers don't even mention it , even on their list of top realistic games

[@kevinsumner6843]

true, but i consider it a good thing because playerbase can ruin a franchise. look what happened to Battlefield, it got popular, brought toxic players, got more popular and now Battlefield is a sellout heap of shit

There was a earlier arma game tho, operation flashpoint, also known as ARMA: Cold War Crisis released in 2001.

[@johannr2658]

Edit: just saw that you put it a lil later, while this is technically true. The game was originally released in 2001 as operation flashpoint Cold War crisis. But it still counts as an arma game.

I've played ArmA 1 and two on my notebook. I wasn't born the 2000's so i don't really have nostalgia but those games are masterpieces and are the most ahead of time games i've ever played.

Amred Assault was the first games i ever played on pc and i had no idea what to do and how but it was fking good

[@rc59191]

ARMA 2 was the greatest game ever until DayZ came out and destroyed the community. Part of what made it amazing was the server's were filled with fellow Airman, Soldier's, Sailors, and Marines. Then DayZ started and the server's were overflowing with braindead children running around acting like they were SEAL Team 6 when the game is centered around Marines.

[@dallasjonpaulgrove547]

SOG is still hands down the best iteration of Arma games IMO.

[@tinerci5761]

ARMA: Is there a link to the Queen's Gambit game? I wanted to download it, but I couldn't find it

[@sasquatch7234]

Probably doesn't exist anymore. It was fun. It's was an expansion to ArmA itself. I wonder of ArmA would even run on modern windows?

I’ve only played Arma 3 but I think I like them all, also Arma: Armed Assault and Arma 2 sound chopped up but good at the same time somehow.

[@CHRB-nn6qp]

Arma 2 is very good, especially the campaign. It feels a bit jankier than Arma 3 but apart from that it's great.

ArmA 2 is the best of the series i.m.o. and I had a lot of fun with Operation Flashpoint and ArmA (Armed Assault was it's first name). ArmA 3 for me personally is a bit of a let down and I've never played it much.

Agree with the first part, and somewhat with the second. The best sounds imo we're in arma 1. Tho 3s are surely much better than 2s sounds lol

Can someone break down all these versions? We’re they dlc’s or like added content for the existing ones? I thought there were just three main arma games besides the dumb iOS phone ones

[@yourmanjimbo]

Its been a while now but: ArmA: Armed Assault-First Arma game ArmA: Queen's Gambit-Expansion for ArmA: Armed Assault focused on mercenaries ArmA 2-Sequel to ArmA: Armed Assault ArmA 2: Operation Arrowhead- Standalone ArmA 2 expansion that introduced lots of mechanics and focused on the US army rather than USMC. ArmA 2: British Armed Forces, ArmA 2: Private Military Company and ArmA 2: Army of the Czech Republic-DLCs for ArmA 2 that add factions and mini campaigns. ArmA: Cold War Assault- Re release of Operation Flashpoint: Cold War Crisis under the ArmA name after re-securing the rights from Codemasters. ArmA: Tactics-Turn based strategy game ArmA 2: Firing Range and ArmA: Mobile ops-Mobile games. Everything following is DLC for ArmA 3

[@sasquatch7234]

Bruh, I didnt know ArmA 3 was that old. I also didn't know that it was released only 4 years after ArmA 2. I miss the original ArmA. It wasn't polished at all, but it was revolutionary at the time. Saharani was beautiful.
