Thanks for watching guys! This video features a LOT of different mods. If you want info on exactly what I'm using, post a message in the ARMA 3 text channel on my Discord server and I'll let you know. Also, we squad up on ARMA usually every fortnight. If you want to join in as well, once again, hit me up on Discord. Discord - discord.gg/zCCVqXUG95

You’re definitely right, but a huge deal of the performance problems has got to do with optimisation of missions. As someone who builds missions myself, I can tell you there are ways to ensure decent performance. The more players in a server though, the harder it becomes.

My favourite is when our squad on foot sees an enemy armored vehicle, and we contact our HQ to send aerial assistance. We have to hold a laser designater on the target, then another player arrives with a jet and lock to our laser, and blows it up. It's such a great feeling to work together like this.

I finally bought all dlc (including Contact) for Arma3 just yesterday after playing the hell out of it and Apex the last few years. Then there's the new Prairie Fire DLC etc that looks really interesting. Nope, this game is going nowhere... Only wider, deeper and more complex... :) Would love to see the Angola War (1975) visited as it hits closer to home than most of the current conflicts presented.

1:40 Afaik, the simulation company (Bohemia Interactive Simulations) has been entirely spun-off and the companies no longer interact as they used to. The confusion isn't helped by the fact that they're both called Bohemia Interactive, use near identical logos, and that the Arma3/DayZ company is still commonly known as "BIS" for Bohemia Interactive Studios.

I think partially due to time limitations, and at times it is overwhelming the amount of keys to remember etc. That said, time I have spent in the game I've thoroughly enjoyed - even before adding in mods. The freedom to do whatever, however is fantastic and I really need to find more time to dedicate to it. I might have to fire it up again this avo.

Same here. I watched videos for a couple years while waiting to build my pc. Idk about you. But I think when my friends hear how much you can do from me and that I’m still learning a lot after 3 months, turns them off to the idea. Like this “they see you pointing at the moon, not the moon itself.” I’m trying subtlety in my approaches and I can say, three of them are building PCs and getting ARMA now. Tom Sawyer those son’s a bitches. Btw I have 90% of my gameplay as Zeus, it’s the main (not whole) reason I play. As an rts player, this is the closest game I can think of that plays like a game of D&D with your buddies, a fps and an rts all in one delightful package. D&D was their inspiration for Zeus and I LOVE creating and playing out scenarios.

Yeah key can be tedious to learn at first i must agree ! Just to say, me and my friends were all playing COD, then BF, then siege... but one day i've found Arma and you know what ? We all loved it. I'm sure if you show to your friend few videos he will *at least* be interested. I convinced my friends to join me, and it's been now 7 years and a half that we're all playing. May be you should show to your friend those ones: Luetin09 "what can a new player expect ?" , Viper1Zero "top10 reasons to play arma3 in 2020" and from official arma3 "33 things about arma3". To talk about arma 4 sadly i don't think it will comes until many years ; they are currently still working on the new engine which they will make their games on. If the engine is not ready, it means arma 4 can't even starts to be developped, and to give you an idea arma 3 took 7 years of development before release. So yeah, they have to finish the engine first, then at least 7 years for arma 4 if not more...

When I first saw ARMA3 I absolutely fell in love with it. Yes it was complicated and yes there are so many wonky quirks to it, but my goodness the freedom and immersion that it gives. I never liked the run of the mill, toxic, run in, die and respawn shooters out there. It's the game that keeps on giving and the community surrounding ARMA3 is excellent. But the though of a new and improved ARMA 4 does make me giddy. Until then though ARMA 3 still has A LOT to offer. Great video!

Mmmmg! Watching the video makes me want to play ARMA 3 again. When discovering the ARMA-series, I discovered that not the action-stuff was so important to me, but combined OPS stuff, that typically gets nerved in all other shooter: A10 runs, 100 tanks (if you want them), Artielly, Carpet bombing, Nukes - it is all there, and there are other people who enjoy that stuff with, too. And it even is sort-of balanced in some modes! Really neat game for people who like simulations with _some_ action in there.

I have to practice a lot!!! I have Call of Duty and can't even control that one yet. I'm not used to the controller. I'm an old PC head with PC games that I still play from the early 2000's. If I ever get the hang of the controller, I think I'll like that one and this one especially. I'm going to buy the base and see what happens. Thanks for your review; it really helped me decide.

the concept of table top gaming and military gaming goes back hundreds maybe thousands of years.. dnd got its roots from whole scale battle map planning games but ultimately the goal was to have a single unit experience which lead to dnd and other table top games which then lead to video games like this.. just a little history on the subject..

What are your thoughts? I've had the game for damn near 2 years, and I just cant bring myself to get into it. It looks so awesome on video, but when you play it, servers are just full of greasy neckbearded fucks who don't give 2 shits about helping you understand simple parts of the UI, or even the point of the match you're in. I'm convinced that(unless you're in a team of like 40 people who are into a serious unit), this game is just terribly executed and a waste of potential. Without modded content, it really just sucks.

Arma reforger is underrated, all we need is a lot more people to create mods and support it instead of waiting for 6 more years for arma 4. Also F 2nd ranger server someone needs to make a 100 player conflict map like last time

I’ve had this game for a year or more, but was turned off by the initial gameplay campaign. Seemed like the AI soldiers were too good of a shot. I would get one shot killed immediately constantly. Watching you video now after all these years I may just try it again and try playing a mod. Thanks for the great content! ✌️

I play almost always alone and have thousands of hours in the game. It's just multiple games in one: you can spend hours creating missions, you can spend hours playing missions, you can just explore the huge maps that are available, it's a low key flight simulator, you can play realistic milsim type missions or fanciful spy missions, whatever you want! :-)

So it's actually called Direct Action (which is a dynamic game mode I built). That map is Takistan which I haven't actually released for DA yet, but there are 10+ other maps it's supported on. Anizay would be the closest to Takistan if you're after a desert theme. Just search for Direct Action in the workshop and you'll find it.

Bohemia Interactive does not produce training software. Their sister studio, who is independent and based in Australia, use the same engine for their training suite, Virtual Battlegrounds, now at the third iteration, I believe. My guess is that they licence the engine, but that is beyond my knowledge.
