Hold the Door - ShackTac Arma 3

[@exula]

I love all the knowledge you are throwing out there for Crane. That's a great teacher right there.

[@civilwarfan12]

Every player in this platoon has made their remarkable moment and/or last stand, Crane and all of Mike has made theirs this day.

[@shakemyspear7599]

I miss your sick aerial gameplay :'(

[@dslyecxi]

+Shake MySpear - I don't get as much satisfaction out of flying in A3 compared to just being on the ground. The ground experience has outpaced the air one these days for the most part. It can still be fun and I do fly from time to time, but certainly not like in the past.

[@Joe-zw9ep]

I like cats and dogs.

[@shakemyspear7599]

*****​ I totally get it hopefully some day you'll like flying again :D

[@T2Gibbon]

Any particular reason for that ? Is it the terrain, the scenarios, or simply beeing too used to it /doing it too often by now?

[@Qarlo99]

Ghostboots is a trip! And Crane's last, desperate refusal to give up was awesome!

[@thebombdigitydog]

IT seems no matter what OP i watch from any of these guys, Ghostboots is always getting into trouble and somehow ... sometimes... survives. Always a laugh

[@98765zach]

you and crane sure do end up In the same unit a lot. she's like Taconic, even plays medic, but less bearded and likely to understand Scotsman less

[@Aardvark892]

"Didja remember the milk?" "Ah, goddamn it." My favorite part of the whole video.

[@jukahri]

It's nice that Crane is not just good at dying in a dramatic fashion but also downright funny.

[@GaaamleDreng]

Love the convo about Overlord! "Oh oh" - "Oh oh??"

[@PrimeBizzef]

Is there a reason why Crane rolls with you all the time?

[@dslyecxi]

I'd imagine there is, yes.

[@Elmarby]

Whatever that reason is, long may it last. She has a pleasant voice, good banter and communicates clearly. And as amply demonstrated here, quite able to bring her A game to Arma.

[@PrimeBizzef]

I ain't complaining, its nice not having to hear taconic all the time.

[@hobbermallow5764]

Oi, Taconic has a lovely, soothing voice that suits his infinite wisdom.

[@walther007]

Being near that tree at the end before you got hit... That's when I covered my eyes.

[@CastielA3G]

I really liked the part where after that initial contact with those UAZs she totally had the trajectory down on the cannon and absolutely destroyed the poor guy driving that BTR. I love to see those moments when I am playing when people finally get into the zone.

[@Aliasalpha]

Ooh perfect timing for a long video, my PC died yesterday & I'm starting to get arma withdrawls

[@jonowee]

How did Ghostsboots' body end up all the way down that away from the building?

[@demency2741]

"You're free to shoot ghostboots, next time." There's that famous ShackTac camaraderie I stay for :D

[@deleyt4312]

Kudos to the missionmakers/zeus....seemed like all elements had an exciting time. Good fun.

[@rajwinthapa8865]

That conversation from 8 min mark. Loved it 😂😂😂

[@JohnSmith-ud9ex]

Now THAT was EPIC ! Brilliant : ) And a brilliant crew.

[@coprhead6]

That entire scene with Ghostboots at the end was so fucking hilarious

[@TheSoldier0fortunE]

I know, brilliant end to the vid lol

[@keevee09]

Respect. I've enjoyed your videos for a while now. Keep up the informative and entertaining experiences. What perhaps hooked me, at least memorably, was the video where you managed to take a hostage, get him to call in one of his own 'copters, and then from about 50 yards proceed to attack the landed bird. I don't think it went 100% but you can't plan for everything. Cheers.

[@Ssensei12]

More Dslyecxi and Crane tag teams? Well I'm not compaining!

[@TheCsel]

the ending to this should have its own highlight video

[@Neubcham]

What an Epic ending! F**king Funny moments in that house near the end. "I'm Here!" you see his head pop up from the stairway. LOL GREAT JOB Y'ALL!

[@rhinaso]

I enjoy the byplay with the crew. Mostly when the gunner is trying to kill the rock. Went maybe 5 meters at the end.

[@marko247]

"You're free to shoot Ghostboots if you need to" Are want and need interchangable in that instance?

[@BACONxISxGOOD]

4th game in a row with crane? I'm sensing a trend.

[@mileskeller2003]

40:50 Brutal efficiency. Nice shooting Crane. 1:25:23 MORE EFFICIENCY GO GO GO.

[@firstgroupoperations8921]

what mod allows them to see the diff elements example the infantry markers instead of vanilla blips?

[@Stukov2]

Believe that would be Shacktac's UI

[@familyguyrofl]

Seeing that vodnik got me nostalgic of arma 2.

[@maxsteiner1964]

that got ecxiting real fast at around 1.12, lol.

[@williamjavier1653]

Never stop fighting those guys don't take prisoners.

[@muaddib912]

That thing that happens at around 28 min in, that same thing happens to me randomly. Any fix? Or is it a rejoin?

[@RevsBlueChurch]

Holy fuck, that was so completely intense

[@iimrbreacherii]

hahaha 1:12:53 - Bail bail bail BAILLLLLLLLL !

[@JohannVF]

Not to be a Backseat Gunner, but Crane's MG bursts are a little short for nailing dismounts at those distances. A few more rounds/burst would get her better results...

[@snowyshowy2233]

Good Show!

[@148crusader]

Is it just me or is there something you guys do to the AI to make the vehicle gunners not be laser precise death machines? I'm surprised not a single vehicle hit the player at the end considering how close they were.

[@oldfrend]

i mean, i get fire discipline, but i feel like crane's being juuuuuuust a tad overly delicate with all that firepower at her fingertips =D

[@Aardvark892]

Oh, and I almost forgot to ask. Does ShackTac ever use drones in their missions?

[@dslyecxi]

Almost never. Essentially never.

[@jakeg3337]

You should create a mission where there is a team of drones (like 12 people) loaded to bear and the other team has to find the drone operators and kill them.

[@Pohtatoh_]

Any specific reason why using 21:9?

[@dslyecxi]

That's my monitor's ratio and it's amazing?

[@Pohtatoh_]

Probably if had a monitor that supports 21:9

[@TheUnhappyTroll]

well, it was fast meltdown to "Hodor" state, wasn't it?

[@ArgelTal_]

"We can try and throw some smokes out" My thoughts: Sure russian troopers love lucky strike and marlboro, that could distract them. ... OH SMOKE GRENADES?! jeah good idea.

[@SVVV97]

Too fucking early dude; the wounds haven't healed yet :'( ... :D

[@SerafiWolf]

As tactical as ShackTac is, Have you guys ever done an Arena style game mode kindof along the vein of whatever king of the kill is? A FFa Where the playable area gets smaller and smaller? Your individual playstyle and such would be very tense to watch if they had such a mode in ARMA.

[@MasterFancyPants]

King of the Kill started as a Arma 3 mod. SOE (or Daybreak?) hired the modder.

[@SerafiWolf]

Nice.

[@dereklamb6700]

Axel Fx "The game" is a popular game type in the shactak community and videos can be found on many members channels

[@Elmarby]

Battle Royale by Player Unknown is what you are probably thinking of. And he did get hired by Sony for H1Z1 and added a version of Battle Royale for it.

[@Vsor]

1:10:25 "That was TOW close.. hahaha!"

[@Biervampir92]

Are you guys not doing PvP anymore?

[@dslyecxi]

We play it less than in the past, and I infrequently make videos of it. I generally enjoy coop far more at this point in A3.

[@Biervampir92]

***** Alright, thanks for the heads up. I still enjoy your content, was just wondering due to the scarcity of PvP videos.

[@Nangleator22]

I prefer coop. The odds are so crazy, and thanks to the less-than-perfect AI, engagements happen at close range. Some of those PvP matches, I never see the enemy.

[@Kulfaangaren]

What's with the Bradley cammo ? Been lead vehicle in a pride parade recently ? :)

[@FlinnGaidin]

Awesome ending... :D

[@omarifx]

new fan here (suscribd) like your dcs world and arma videos

[@dslyecxi]

Welcome, glad to hear it! :)

[@docOld55]

"Let's go!" - BOOM - dead.

[@boarthefighter]

That was great!

[@ShadzWins]

Sorry Dslyecxi, but I can't watch your videos anymore since you changed monitor (I'm watching on 16:10) and 2/5 of my screen is covered with black horizontal bars. It makes everything way more smaller to the point my eyes are starting to hurt.

[@dslyecxi]

No worries! If you ever have the chance to go for a 21:9 monitor, feel free to revisit. I'd definitely recommend them, for what it's worth - easily one of the best upgrades I've ever made.

[@rougehawk]

So weird...this video didnt pop up on my sub feed but on my suggested feed...

[@drasleona6216]

hit the bell next to the subscribe button below the video. that will enable notifications and will bypass the sub feed bugs.

[@koala0884]

44:25 Drive me closer, I want to hit them with my sword!

[@FromMyBrain]

Woot!

[@johanponken]

Made it to my ArmA3 goodies, as the ending is kind of a replica of a section of Make Them Pay, kzbin.info/www/bejne/mX-pgZWObNOdhZY. Starting with roving tank and vehicles, explosions - and CraneSong and Sephith on a second floor.

[@taemisalzer1844]

Too soon.

[@Sponty84]

lol god damn I love ghostboots

[@White_Raven_Films]
