30:21 Would've loved to see that warthog stomp from the inf. perspective. For anyone who's interested, AFAIK the first air-to-air kill by an A-10 happened during the Gulf War, the plane was flown by Cpt. Bob Swain, and the exact type of helicopter that got stomped is to this day, still to be determined. Cpt. Bob Swain attempted to lock on a Sidewinder when he spotted a helicopter that shouldn't be there, and his spotter plane confirmed it was an Iraqi, but due to insufficient altitude he couldn't, so he switched on the gun and let off a burst of some 75 rounds from about a mile away. Not happy with his result, he gave the chopper 300 rounds more while closing in, just to be on the safe side, and probably because an overkill is still a kill. That did the trick, it did the trick so well, they couldn't ID the chopper when they found the wreckage. In his own words: -"It looked like I'd hit it with a bomb"... Anyways, great video.

@@Lil_FYRBUG While it's a wholly different skill set, the game still takes hours and hours of dedication to learn and master. When it comes to milsim groups and the like people do end up depending on you, in the context of it being a team-based game. In such an in-depth game where real life knowledge tactics of unit cohesion, coordination and teamwork are important it's more fun, even, to take it more seriously. Even just the videos on this channel are a testament to the extent to which people are connected to each other through these experiences, and while it may be a game, to many people it's more than that: it's an experience.

Listen I can understand and respect that. However, No matter how many hours you may be spending bonding with your "platoon". It still is just a game. No one is going to die if you are not playing. No one is depending on you to survive. It is just a game. you're treating it like you're actually in the military which is fine if your in game and just want to Rp or whatever. But you're taking it into real life wtf is the point of that? Play the game. Make new friends and play the game with them.

I wish they'd get rid of the basic HUD they use and keep everything in the cockpit, I always thought the mini-map and putting all the information on screen was kinda cheap. They should force you to keep your head in the cockpit if you want to monitor your systems/weapons/radar, this would add more realism and also add a small level of difficulty when operating aircraft. They created such a good looking cockpit that its a shame the player has no real reason to even look at it.

[@zacharyvasey6221]

With the release of Malden yesterday, what are your hopes for in the upcoming DLCs such as "Orange", "Tac-ops", etc. Drewski?

[@carlosvega914]

Zachary Vasey I take the right to answer your question, just for you to know somebody opinion apart from him. I think "Orange" DLC (with its name coming because of Bohemia new studio location, Amsterdam) is going to have a new type of gameplay, if I remember well (I saw that on their last Roadmap). Maybe that gameplay could be a naval one? I don't know which other military staff could they give us, but if they try to give us naval stuff, it can massively change gameplay, unless they focus only on sea support (with bombs like on the city port of Company of Heroes). The "SpecOps" DLC I think it could give us some new weapons focused on Special Forces, but that is strange because of CTRG and Viper. I think they are going to give us some missions, but only that content from a DLC... What do you think?

[@zacharyvasey6221]

After reading some speculation forums online, I think the Orange DLC is going to be humanitarian aid of some kind. The logo of two hands shaking imply something peaceful rather than combat based game play. There could be an addition of a tactical nuke and players must help civilians deal with the aftermath and treat patients for radiation poisoning. Maybe some improvements to healing and reviving will be present. I'm not sure :) I'm really excited to learn more about this DLC! I think the Tac - ops DLC will focus on close quarters combat. Maybe there will be the addition of shotguns as this was lacking from the original game. Tac - ops could also add helicopter repelling, stun grenades, small UGVs, improved AI, Improved high command game play, stuff like that. I really hope something is done to improve the AI. It works as is and BI has done a great job with AI development, but definitely some improvements can be made.... I believe the last DLC is armored. I think tank destroyers and maybe even some new tanks will be added. I would love to see a M1A3 Abrams (or some improved Abrams tank) for NATO.... Maybe AT missiles will be improved; guidance systems and new AT launchers (NATO and independent forces lack an unguided AT shoulder mounted launcher). More detail may be added to penetration. There may be an actual hole where a projectile penetrated the vehicle instead of just random scratches and burn marks. I would love to see a detailed interior of armored vehicles. I hope to see general improvements to optimizations along the way as well... I think OperatorDrewski said one time he hopes for a "60 FPS update". Something like that lol

[@jumppy8442]

Zachary Vasey as someone who spends most of my time flying medevac choppers and playing cls, that sounds sick!

[@carlosvega914]

Zachary Vasey Those ideas are so cool, specially your Tac-Ops proposal. Hope you agree in those

[@zacharyvasey6221]

Thanks! I hope something is done about infantry combat in Tac-Ops. Smoother infantry movement and better animations would be a big plus! When I try to peak around corners when in the "Hard Side Lean" (left ctrl + D for example), I just can't help but notice how awkward and clumsy it is when I try to actually move around a corner in this stance. As for animations, something just seems off... When I kill an enemy from a far I see this process happen: I see the impact with some blood and all that, the soldiers almost freezes(glitches out laughably sometimes when they just injured) as the game has to register that this object is "!alive", then a sometimes awkward death ragdoll. Some of you have probably experienced this while sniping. Games that come to mind when I think of good death "animations" are Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege(2015), Grand Theft Auto V(Sometimes! :))(2013), and HITMAN (2016). I understand these are all VERY much different games from the Arma series, but they could give inspiration for BI to create a "dynamic death animation". These things are not big and don't get me wrong I love Arma, but I think the little things really make for an aggregate improvement to the experience and quality of the game.

caueg jailson nice try ISIS, the A-10 isnt going anywhere, anytime soon.

[@GHawkinsOneSix]

The US Air Force is doing its best to retire the A-10 so they can pour more money into the F-35 (the 1.6 trillion costing multi role fighter which is outperformed by most other aircraft). Congress blocked its retirement however.

[@brandongamer4059]

i heard that the A29 Super Tucano il be together if the A-10 is true?

[@FlyingMaxFr]

yes by the F35 ultimately...but for the moment it cannot be replaced, no other beast like this one!

[@cadenorris4009]

Couple things: If you had a guy who specializes in CAS (like a JTAC) calling in 9 lines it would increase the situational awareness throughout your flight. Also, I know arma probably doesn’t model this correctly, but you really need to wait until you are about 1nm slant range before you lay down the trigger in CCIP mode.

[@iCrazyLinkz]

We need something like this on ps4

[@generalfranky1905]

you god damn right we need this so badly not even bf4 can do this shit

[@FeelMyBirdie]

yeah yall gonna have to wait a few years for this. if our top of the line pcs cant even run this really well then neither will a console unless ur happy with like 30fps which for a console is standard anyways i guess it wouldnt matter

[@galaxymaster0624]

Oh you'll have to wait quite a bit, even if the consoles could run it, there's just too many hotkeys that its a problem on a PC to remember them all, only thing you could do is have a quite long actions list to acrool through

[@loyaltyndrespect24]

thats what im saying like they really got to make it for ps4

Squad for PS4 with Air Vehicles and your all good

Seeing the A-10 take down that enemy Helicopter from everyone's perspective was AWESOME!!

[@SwedishGamerPro]

Is this against AI or some sort or multiplayer? Or how are these kind of missions made?

Can somebody give me a modlist that this operation uses?

[@leo93170]

JSRS sound mod, that im sure. For additionnal content best bet would be RHS mods.

[@kinglevidevicusvg6400]

I saw ACE and heard JSRS other than that some weapon and vehicle packs but that'd probably be it.

[@FebiMaster]

TFAR for the radio communication, the rest might’ve been mentioned by guys above me

[@arkinog4629]

One thing I am particularly interested in knowing is how you handle free-look when you're flying around? In the video it looks seamless, I imagine that helps significantly when it comes to orientation.

[@EinePriseSalzTV]

I wish there was Arma3 on PS4 :(

[@jatsu2969]

Getting a good graphics card is good but if you want better frames upgrade your ram and cpu as well. A graphics card isnt the only important part in a computer. Also mods may not be well optimized. So no matter how well your specs are, you may only reach 30 fps because of badly optimized mods

These planes are absolutely awsome. When you hear them comming on the field, you know the hostile contact is going to regrett engaging.

[@socksvs139]

You really need 1 commanding personnel not all of you calling out orders at the same time and blurting out stuff that is rather common sense. It just feels un organized to me. I usually watch Jester play and his is very uniform but still fun

[@ryker4455]

That was pretty cool showing both perspectives. Nice video.

[@killswitch141]

GOD some of these cinematic shot were so fucking awesome! Keep it up Drew

[@aguywhodoesstuff]

That was some amazing footage... I honestly think it the favourite one of all the videos of yours that I've seen

Love switching views from your position and boots on ground. Really awesome game. 👍
