Bc that’s cringe
Well I have wondered about that myself and ended up meditating over the phylosophy of depicting violence for entertainment purposes. Some questions are better left unanswered.
Jokes aside, it is probably because player base is mostly American/NATO countries and want to play as "themselves"
Even vanilla Arma 2 and 3 have Russian OPFOR?
As cringe as the SOF Milsim Units?
I think they are referring to a group to play as opfor, polpox
I think wanting to play the role of cannon fodder for russia is a lot more cringe
It is not cool to try to shame others for playing a specific faction in a videogame, it is actually the opposite of being cool
No shame in being cringe. Doesn’t stop it from being cringe.
Sorry mate allow me to rephrase, I meant the dedicated groups that you often see play and stick to one faction, like the many units that sit and play as the divisions or task forces within the US Armed Forces.
Well now that's no my interested so no answer from me
I am looking for a unit like that too. I dont identify with any particular faction so I dont feel like playing always the same one
anyways, if you want to find a unit you will probably have better luck at #looking_for_unit
I'm only looking because the whole NATO thing is kinda dried out for me, plus all this SOF Milsim stuff isn't fun for me personally as it's all just copy and paste imo.
At least to me playing as OPFOR faction might help refresh the experience a little.
Tried that a couple of times always get hit up by BLUFOR Units.
Have you specified you want opfor? I dont really know what you could do besides that tbh. Maybe take a look at #communities_arma3 ?
Eh tbf ill pop it one more time in #looking_for_unit and if nothing comes up and fits my fancy ill just make a Russian Unit 🤷♂️
I hate playing a single "unit" that is just cringe, I wanna play every faction. I find that way more entertaining than to play in a NEET simulator trying to play as military men doing training on the obstacle course and "weapon qualifications" course. the only qualifications a Arma player really needs in a group is for heavy assets like aircraft and armored vehicles
anyone wanna play i got no friends who play arma

Hijacking this message to soapbox...
Full offence to community recruiters, but you all are aids. When a post is made that specifies time, setting, role, faction, any details, don't interact with the lfg if your unit doesn't meet those requirements
Of course they never listen.
Hi! This is a prewritten message that makes me look personable! Would you like to join our generic community full of 12 year old racists with a Napoleon complex?
real
(this is actually a sophisticated recruitment pitch that makes me look relatable and human)
And the worst part is that even after you accept the recruitment, go through their pretentius "training" and application processes, their ops are STILL worse in every measure than public zeus.
I have sent you a borderline incoherent recruitment pitch
Now I am going to debase myself by eating unbuttered toast in the garden

Someone literally spent time and energy in Eden, made a script to read, organized players (likely from across the globe), and configured TFAR just to have a walking sim with 2 squads, an absurd reinsertion sequence, and pathetic combat encounters.
I genuinely can make a mission in 15 minutes, no compositions, no scripts, that will perform better and be better liked by everyone LIVE IN ZEUS
off topic but im mad becuase lou cursed my ebay
I genuinely can make a mission in 15 minutes, no compositions, no scripts, that will perform better and be better liked by everyone LIVE IN ZEUS
bet
It irks me to see such a powerful tool like Eden used to make such pitiful excuses of a mission.
lou if you are reading this uncurse my ebay
Aight, I start my next campaign Sunday. It's Ukraine. Want to help me Zeus?
I work all day
You should quit your job and abandon your family
making a mission?
But I'll speedrun making a mission in Eden when I have a chance.
how did y— I didn't do anything! 😇
Got a couple of units coming for ajoint op.
lou i demand my MREs to be delivered this instant
i paid over 200 bucks for those plus shipping plus tax
Skill issue
you try buying a case of foreign mres
What kind of MREs
indonesian 24hr rations
ok that actually sounds nice
Send me the squad/player list, modlist, and map
its the early 2000s so its really rare
It won't be done sunday, but I want a challenge for once
honestly if you need help building a mission/campaign i do it everyday
Also I won’t make a Russia vs Ukraine mission set in the modern day. It’s not happening.
im just sayin i got some good ass campaigns that i made if anyone wants to check em out
What separates an ass campaign from a normal one
a smart ass is what seperates them
fr fr no cap ong
too old to be speaking like a chimpanzee that's been fed through a woodchipper

im pretty good at it especially when civillians are involved or irl scenarios that isnt war involved
yooo same us aussies have a reputation of being good with civis

I'm no military nor do I have big experience with MREs - the only ones I tried were French and Polish, perhaps another one

ok, enough offtopic thank you
lou you are so
cute
dont lie
hips
lou how do you know that song?
.
can i dm you at some point? (not offtopic :) )
only for moderation purpose, thanks.
Guess someone should read the #rules ... And use common sense on how to behave on the internet...
and I'm not talking about Lou 😉
Lou doesn't need to behave. Lou does need to setBehaviour
or setDammage, that will scare the kids away as well
i am pretty known for not reading the rules in a trollsome way wink dayz
rules is something i learn on the way of things, like irl law problems
you dont needa know them until you commit it
You don't know a murder is illegal until you kill someone?
- Follow channel names, descriptions, pinned messages to avoid clutter of chat.
it says to avoid clutter, but i don't see anybody else chatting, and i dont suspect that there is short vision people who cant read channel names, and if there was a problem you should probs change re-write that and say something like "Only talk about a topic in the right channel ie; looking for a group and or someone to play with belongs in looking for group. If you don't follow these rules you could be warned and or temporarily muted." otherwise you cant tell me the read the rules if its not rightfully worded.
i mean you can tell me im wrong, but it is a better way of saying things
and Users are entitled to their own opinions or views, yet arguments shall be kept polite and civil. is a rule you state so you cant be mad at that opinion but you can definitely disagree with your own entitled opinion
You're true but I'd suggest #discord_server if you have objection/suggestion to the #rules and/or moderation
you cant say that because someone said something about the rules, wont it be a bit odd of instead of talking about what they said in the chat you should just say it in a different chat? that would be odd, and if i should have to do that, shouldnt they have said it in the same chat you told me to go aswell?
enough.
follow moderator's instructions or get out.
I don't know what is odd enough.
i thought being entitled to your own opinion is allowed?
its not a heated nor conflicting discussion unless someone wants to make it like that
im just following the rules you put in for the server
!ban @ionic narwhal 7d failure to follow moderator's instructions - listen next time. see you next week
*PewPewPew!!*
RIP @ionic narwhal

Hi.
I am considering getting Arma 3, would you guys tell me if it's a hard game or not?
It's on sale for an affordable price for me, so I want to know.
It really depends
It is a... tactically difficult game.
For reference, if you get shot in COD, your invisible health bar goes down, but outside of a headshot you will probably survive, and regen health.
In Arma 3, if you are not wearing body armor, a pistol at close range s pretty lethal, and even if you do live, youll likely suffer some effect - a limp, ruined aiming, etc.
You have to approach it like you're a mortal being in a battlefield.
And none of above applies if you play Editor
Oh..
Imagine asking GMod players “is that game hard for me?” essentially what you're asking is the same question
Alright.
True. As a sandbox, if you can manage the scripting system, you can tweak it however you like.
Dont like the damage system? Make your own!
However, you can actually try to enjoy the game what the game tries to offer
Arma is Arma because it is difficult in ways that Battlefield and COD arent.
Uhhh.. steam fucked up my balance so I can't buy Arma 3 anymore. I had 2.66 and added 4.00. Instead of 6.66 I only have 4.00
O.o Id give it a bit to update.
Let me restart steam.
God damn it.
I was actually looking forward to getting Arma 3.. still hasn't updated.
The sale is going to last for a bit more days. You don't need to rush
I don't think it's gonna update..
I mean, then why not add some to the budget?
I don't have anymore on my card. All gone to bills and food.
I've got 3 pounds on my card. Not even minimum to add.
Shows how sad my fucking life is.
If what you say is true sounds like either you misunderstood what you've done or Steam's bug. Maybe contact them?
If moneys that tight, the game can wait. Sales come around very frequently, life does not.
I've been working had all month just to treat myself with something.
I'm done fucking waiting.
I can respect that, it is your money to do with as you like obvs :p
Mhm. Maybe you can help?
yo i just downloaded arma 3 for the first time ever and i havent even opened it yet anyone wanna help a brotha out lol

Arma Reforger
To get started with Arma Reforger it is recommended to play through the tutorial, which provides a simple overview of the basic features of the game.
Arma 3
If you're new to playing Arma 3, it is recommended to have a read of #info_help_tips and especially the getting started guide (https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_3_Getting_Started).
Those resources will provide you with a good way to learn the basics of playing Arma 3 in both single- and multiplayer.
Fello brit?
No random links without descriptions thanks.
I announce with great pleasure I just completed a full dynamic recon op without dying or losing teammates
First time I actually completed one
Please don't spam.
I wanna overdose somebody in a heli
Drugs and OD's are both not Arma feature
really? So I can’t get killed for an overdose of morphine?
At least in vanilla game. You sounded tried to make a joke that is untelated to any of the topics but if you're here to ask in-game feature, disregard my last
it’s a genuine question but ok
Thats an ACE (mod) medical feature, depending on settings its probably like two doses to make them pass out depending on a lot of other factors.
Also, dont do it, unless you're really sure you got all the laws of comedy on your side.
huh
ok got it
How to join a multiplayer im new in this game
Hello, and welcome!
At the most basic level, go to Multiplayer, Server Browser, and check out the Official Servers tab. These servers are vanilla (barring some with DLC/CDLC), so you dont need to worry about mods.
If youre looking for a particular game mode, you can filter down at the bottom left and search for them. However, you may not be able to join every server, given mod loads/passwords, etc.
If youre looking to join a community, look in #looking_for_unit or #communities_arma3 ; or if you want to run a game in the Right Now timeline, #looking_for_game
Thanks man i am looking for a game
Arent we all 🙂
Sorry, am new, but when I zoom in arma I don't actually use the scope, is this normal?
dont hold, just click the right mouse button
Ah, thanks
Another question before I buy, let’s say I want to join a server but I forgot what mods they use, what do I do? Is there a way to select entire collections like gmod or do I have to manually select all the required mods?
Theres a few ways to handle modloads.
Usually, groups create a Modlist, a .html file theyll pass to you. You plug that into the Arma launcher, it loads every mod on the list - any missing get queued for download - and saves it as a preset mod load.
If you use the server browser on the launcher and select a server that is running mods, the launcher will also try to set up the mods to match, but without saving to a list.
Another way ive seen is using a third party program to publish repos, so everyone can update from a selected source - cleaner and easier, tho it bloats the hard drive footprint something awful :x
Ok thanks
Does the Morse Code in the Spearhead release trailer translate to "Operation Cobra is a go. / Operation Cobra is a go. /"? That is what I got
Why my screen turn black and said hold inventory newbie here pls help

Correction: **"OPERATION COBRA IS A GO. I E *(It should be "I I" for "I repeat")*OPERATION COBRA IS A GO. E E (This does not make sense. Maybe it means: "End Encryption" but that does not exist) **
Please fix XD
L I D
Also if your scope is something like the erco, ctrl right click to switch between two scope modes, one is a dot and the other is a proper, more zoomed in sight. This isn't the case for something like an ACO though. If the scope looks like it has an extra tube, might be worth trying to do that
Hey I was wondering is the sale of a mod a big no no? I keep seeing a guy all over TikTok showing off a reshade and bloom mod he has out and is selling the Mod for 10$ USD and is calling it (leaks from arma 4) I am a simple console pleabian and only play reforger so it might be different with Arma 3 I’m not to sure
Hes a scammer, monetizing content without BIS consent is big 😬
yes, its illegal and has already been reported iirc?
cc @quiet pine sounds like the guy we discussed a while ago in ip violations?
Which arma dlc shall me buy (sorry for bad English)
Does jets and helocopters controls hard
it is a scam, give that one a wide berth.
Compared to FPS Infantry controls? Yes.
Compared to a flight sim? Ehhh, not really.
You can easily fly both with keyboard and mouse and miss nothing, if you want to add extra controllers and such the system is flexible enough to allow it - go full HOTAS for immersion.
flight controls for jets in arma 3 is pretty similiar to arcade flight sims like ace combat, a few things are a bit different.
but the 3rd person camera for jets is terrible as it always tries to stay upright
Try pressing double alt, to go into free look
Thank you guys
WASD + Q,Z is enough for moving around I think for a heli
Or is it Shift, Ctrl I don't even know. It's muscle memory atp
I think it's Shift, Z and Q, E is for rotation
You must both have it... if it's from the Jets DLC
None of this applies to the base game's helicopters or jets
Does game has jets and helicopter without dlc
Yes
Are they good or shall me buy
Which is “they” you mean
The dlc jets and helicopter sorry i dont have a good English
Which dlcs are good whic ones shall me buy
Base game jets are ground attack (generally), DLC are air superiority.
Base game helis run a broad range, DLC are heavy lift.
Then which dlcs shall me buy which ones you recomend and thank you so much
And does the tank dlc good?
that is a total scam
The Heli DLC apparently adds helis that can sling load higher loads
Jets adds air to air jets
Yeah that’s what I was guessing
Tanks comes with a nice mini campaign
Of them all? I'd say jets, I like the jets
He has a video up saying bohemia sent him a cease and desist
Tank DLC adds three tanks, a light, medium, and heavy tank, as well as some anti tank launchers.
4 o clock, BI legal team, 200
Tiktoker is neutralised
Which dlcs you recommend guys
No one can make that choice for you, gotta take the information youve been given and decide for yourself. 🙂
yep, illegal, scammy and reported cc @unkempt lotus
don't lose your money on this obviously
Oh yeah of course not, just wanted to let you guys know
Cheers
Hello !

Played arma after years. Still same fun.
Arma life is trash in itself
It’s hot trash
Vanilla Arma is fire 🔥 😍 👌
Holy shit why are there so many channels? I don't remember this many
now you remember
Oh wow can you send me it. Love to laugh at scammers
Is there a mod that makes AI unable to spot you in fog?
Fog, objects and smoke will already make it harder for AI to see/spot you, unless they already know where you are (or might be when moving).
At least for Arma 3 that is haven't really worked with Reforger AI yet
Reforger moment
It’s not really true with A3 ai, they seem to be omniscient
A3 vanilla AI isn't that bad when it comes to spotting (depending on settings).
When running AI mods it doesn't even change much either, AI just becomes smarter than vanilla
They always see low terrain details so without mods like the one that disables them seeing though grass/rock they’re absurdly broken
(Except when I pop smoke they just launch RPGs and grenades at me)
you need to reposition. AI can guess where you are going from your previous trajectory and speed. The "AI can see through things" is really mostly a myth, people just play bad and make missions wrong way
sure there have been some broken assets too that have had necessary parts missing, but those cases are very marginal
the AI is just not so dumb that it would immediately forget that there was someone they were shooting at when you pop into cover
like in quite many games
It’s not about positioning, it’s about how detection “sticks” and AI can generally guess where you are despite having no reason to assume your position. Things like hearing footsteps in the middle of a firefight isn’t realistic, neither is knowing exact position of enemies when engaged at range while they’re prone
Hello I’m new
Could somebody maybe teach me the game? I don’t have any freinds that play the game or really any at all
ShiningRayde likes to guide new players, maybe you could ask him
@granite ember I'll ping him so that he can help you when he's free and/or awake
alright and i cant really play any servers because i dont have the dlcs
It doesn't matter, DLCs don't separate your games at most of the cases
Shouldn't #channel_invites_list update the CDLC section to add Spearhead 1944's link?
well id also like to fly the jets and stuff and idk how anything works
The better sounds mod on reforger makes my ears bleed!
Vax check out this tutorial, will really help you. https://youtu.be/2EsSXWonPJQ
thanks man for that im getting the hang of flying the a 10 im going to try to get the dlc
@keen shale
A-164 (stealthnized A-10) is not a DLC content
You know and you didn't know, the same time? 
I did know that it wasn’t the dlc I was talking about the jet dlc
Ahh, finally, recognition xD
hello are you able to help me?
Ah, wasnt sure if I was too late 🙂 Yeah, lemme DM you to avoid cluttering the server.
ok 🙂
anyone know of a mod or a script that allows timed fuses on dropped bombs im not sure if its a thing that is even possible to be fair
im having a problem where on the main menu theres some music playing and it continues to play during a game, does anyone know how to turn it off
Pinned in #arma3_troubleshooting
are you ready?
ACE does that.
yes
hey guys i need help with something could someone search Grubu in server browser and tell me if u can see anything
#arma3_troubleshooting or #server_admins may help with the issue if expressed 🙂
BetterExplosives has that functionality, if you need it for reforger
@fossil ermine Can I use #looking_for_game to if people wanna play Arma 3 tomorrow or no? Was wanting to leave a message before I head to work.
#multiplayer_events is not working for you? #looking_for_game is for people looking to have a game, not for putting together a game afaik
Gotcha, I was confused about it sorry.
Can I get banned in Arma 3 for using reshade?
yes, BE used to find that as a cheat (since it is uses dll injections afaik)
How?
because** it uses dll injections**
but there are two versions of reshade, if you stick to the normal one then you should be able to play multiplayer, if you use the "with full add-on support" version then the reshade works much smoother but then you can be banned by BattleEye
How do I know what version I am on
did you download reshade from official reshade website?
Nah I bought a reshape pack from a website
💀
Nah it's good tho
so you fell for a scam, gg
which one please? we are tracking those
It went from 30 fps to 70
thanks - yep, illegal (mod sale) and potentially banned online
I'm going to get banned?
if you play MP with this enabled then yeah BE might ban you
better safe than sorry and don't play with Reshade. And don't pay for stuff that is available for free in the future
potentially
might
we don't know
if you feel like trying, try but at your own risk
which is breach of Reshade license because reselling someone's shaders is illegal.
Nah its not reselling
but that's not your concern at all
what are you on about now
Never mind, If I get banned am I permanently banned or just until I Un install
BattleEye bans are permanent, you can apply for an unban to them but they never read their emails
If I Uninstall can I still get banned
uninstalling reshade means there is no reshade in Arma 3 files so no, you won't be banned
I have Uninstaled it and asked for a refund, is there anything I should do to not get banned
nope, should be ok
Should I send the files perhapse?
we are interested in them yes, to see what the package is about - if you can send them in DM, it would be nice
I can't says I need to add you. Locked only friends
then add me 😄 you apparently do not allow server contacts, I do
Ah I will fix that
Sent
If you're worried about getting banned.
You could also make a second steam account and re-buy Arma a second time
At best do it before getting banned, its on sale rn

yooo me and my buddy need some help were new to the game
What's up
yo
What do you need help with
just seein if someone could bassicly show me how to play lol
everyone wants me to downlaod the mods before i get in but my internet is shit
Mods would definitely help the experience as theres not a whole lot of vanilla A3 servers around.
The exact mods will vary by the server
And if you get the wrong mods, you are likely blocked from entering until you remove them.
Unless you're using the Arma 3 Launcher which can automate the process
Hey guys, just got the game to play with friends on a self hosted server.
Looks like, we can not save with default settings.
Can someone guide us on how to enable saving or send a link maybe?
which game mode?
Overthrow
saving type is per mission; if you play this, see their doc if they have any 🙂

I once spent a full night non-stop playing Western Sahara's main campaign in coop
Western Sahara is so cool, and the trailer is the coolest of the 4 imo, it's a shame it isn't as popular as SOGPF or GM cause in my opinion it would be amazing if it was
I like how cheap it is
its quite an underated CDLC
Is there a mod for ArmA 3 to enhanced high command mode?
Did you search the Workshop, or even Google for an answer?
yes he is searching on the discord search engine
Even with Discord search I get a bunch of answers...
And I don't think he believes we are the next generation of ChatGPT...
poplox show me the newest mods for arma 2!
0x0000DEAD
hello! just came to ask a quick question
should i buy arma 3 now or should i wait for arma 4? i plan to buy all the DLC’s for $50 CAD so i’m wondering if i should wait or not
Arma 4 probably isn't coming out for years
says who?
Common sense
They're still in the middle of Reforger and you think A4 is going to be done in less than a year or two
thats not how that works
I am aware it's not a completely linear thing but A3 obviously still has reasonable time
yeah sadly. im sick of looking at that ugly, buggy game
the only reason we play it is because of the AI and easy mission making
I play it and not Reforger because my computer is anorexic
thank you guys for your input! i will now go make my decision using the information you have provided
Don't listen to the trolls...
Arma 3 is still very active and will still be active for the next years. Not only will we not see Arma 4 for at least 3-4 years, but even when it's released the playerbase will not move from one game to another within a week (there are, 10 years after release of A3, still people playing Arma 2).
And in case nobody has noticed, a brand new CDLC #spearhead_1944 has been announced and will gone to A3 pretty soon (a bird told me somewhere in July, so very soon). So why add new content to a game which won't be active anymore next year?
And I'm still Modding Arma 3. Which means active enough
Slight joke aside, Arma 4 is only announced its existence, no ETA like at all. so, if you want to get the best Arma experience today, Arma 3 is the goto
can anybody help me? im pretty new to arma but i havent had that tactical experience yet, i mainly play koth but its just like call of duty without any tactics or squads, right now i dont rly have a milsim feeling, not rly a group feel

Well, I use the Macer AG missiles and I think as long as the tank is hot it can
But yeah, read ^, do the showcase, the tutorials etc
@urban sluice can you check dms
Hi, I don't devote time to 1:1 discussion like that in DMs. You should do the steps above, or if you have a relevant question, ask it on this server.
ShiningRayde likes to guide people through the basics but I don't know if that includes plane targeting
See also below guide as to how properly board Arma titles 🙂
Arma Reforger
To get started with Arma Reforger it is recommended to play through the tutorial, which provides a simple overview of the basic features of the game.
Arma 3
If you're new to playing Arma 3, it is recommended to have a read of #info_help_tips and especially the getting started guide (https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_3_Getting_Started).
Those resources will provide you with a good way to learn the basics of playing Arma 3 in both single- and multiplayer.
just restarted the game after a long time, i cant WAIT to wait in a bush for 50 minute, shot 1 dude in the head, get a nuclear bomb direcly on my head
Why would you play like that?
how do i open my car ?
“Open”?
- A mission may locked it
- If is not locked you can approach to the vehicle and use action
how do i get out im stuck in a chopper
- A mission may locked it

Hello
Sorry to bother, is there anywhere where I could get some quick advice?
Without knowing the nature of your question we can't help
I was just going through ARMA 3's campaign and wanted to know if there's any mods to improve the allied AI, and how to work the mods. The AI can be terrible and their accuracy is unbelievable at times.
#arma3_ai ? Maybe
ty
If you want to play the vanila campaign, DON''T use mods. It will likely mess up the intended scripting experience.
If you want less AI accuracy, or less skilled, lower the values in custom Difficulty settings.
ah, dang alright. Does lowering AI accuracy in the settings lower your allies' AI as well or just the enemy's?
For some reason, it won't let me play the game...
Maybe you got to ask it nicely if it wan't to play. Or explain more details of the problem in #arma3_troubleshooting
the game is on strike due to poor pay and worker benefits
Yeah, there needs to be a prohibition on sales so the game can get some fair pay.
🛠💪🏻
not really. mods are very likely to break the campaign so they are not recommended to be used
Ty, that is unfortunate. I did see a lot of recommended AI mods the workshop but they didn't seem to have much of an effect when I tried messing with them. Might have just been doing them wrong.
Nah. You're a soldier, amongst a (granted, motivated and experienced) civil insurgency. Theyre fighting about as well as can be expected, better than a civvie but not as good as a proper soldier.
No shade to any freedom fighters, but if you averaged the skills across a whole team of insurgents, its only gonna go so far.
Well, thank you for the help. Are there any other recommended mods for the game and gameplay? Any model conversions that turn the guns/vehicles into real world equivalents?
Not for campaign, no. You can have weapons mods on, but they wont spawn - if you paired with an arsenal mod, sure, you can play with a 1998 army kit, why not.
Provided, of course, that they dont affect anything gameplay, or it will break scripts.
yeah it's just superficial for the aesthetic
Arma does not really do that kind of stuff
Speaking of difficulty. Do, say, CTRG soldiers spawn with a higher skill than FIA soldiers on the eden editor, when I place em down?
no
Oh I have been operating on that assumption for so long lol
So if they both had the same gear they'd be equal ig
I feel like the unit from for example CTRG should have had a higher skill than FIA because a CTRG soldier would be more trained in general
But it's not a gameplay breaker just a ease of life thing
that's up to mission design
FIA could be undercover, CTRG could be in training, etc 😉
Yeah that's true
is arma 2 multiplayer alive anymore?
what is the closest thing to tdm to train ?
hey guys, can someone help me out? im in tipping point
and my squad just straight up left me
and i cant find the last AAF members to kill
Tipping point? ||When CSAT helicopters fly over and your squad says 'oh shit weve got to run away!'||?
Just before Signal Lost and that whole fiasco
He may need to restart, if his squad lead died and the script borked.
bruhhh if my og squad leader dies they script breaks? fuuuucking chriiiist
they are at 033 067 the fuck are they doung out of town
at least i can go sliding
idek who the og squad leader is
?
there are some folks who play it
#end_of_life_arma is the channel dedicated for the older titles

Does anyone want to join an antistasi server? I am trying to get one going :))
Hello everyone I want to play Arma 3 but before buying I want to know if my pc is good enough to play the game modded.
Here is my config : Intel(R) Core(TM) i3-10100F CPU @ 3.60GHz 3.60 GHz
8 GO of Ram but soon to be 16 GO.
acceptable as long as your RAM speed doesn't suck.
2133 Mhz so I think it does indeed suck
but its gonna be 16 GO with 3000+ Mhz in like 4 days , so i guess its ok ?
yeah should be
Although I think those CPUs max at 2666 so you might need to tune the timings. Often RAM speeds are awful when not running at XMP.
#hardware_vs_arma may help 🙂
if you have any suggestions for another ram I will gladly take it !
my 7700x says yuck what is this 20 year old game you force me to play.
I have a radeon rx 570 series xd
thats a funny cpu
@wind violet heed the man advice...
Miserable. Don’t expect much
Is anyone able to help me with my game crashing?
Without
- which game
- how
- when
- moar info
noobdy can
Use #reforger_troubleshooting or #arma3_troubleshooting depends on your game accordingly

polpox when is the japanese see dlc ccoming out?
WHO ELSE THINKS THIS GAME IS FREAKIN SUGAR!!!!!
Is there a arm band mod on reforger yet

What does this mean? You're always aiming unless your waepon is lowered
you know how you only have to press once to aim?
i want to have to hold M2 to aim
yes

double tap alt
thx
Just got my first death in the campain, i dont know who shot me, i think it's allies
he didn't like i shot a civilian and opened fire at them
They don't.
If you wait a few seconds the screen will say who shot you
wtf, i stole a 1911 and got myself naked, and after a cutscene i lost my weapon and they gave me cloath
not a vanilla campaign then, CDLC at least
what? i just followed the thing after the vr training
We don't know what you've followed
no 1911 in vanilla… ah wait, there is a lookalike indeed
Yeah, 2035 looks like a 1911 but modernized
what is the fastest way to go the hill in king of the hill
how do i activate the parachute?
Action Menu
...Or, if you're in KotH, automatically if you left a heli/plane from enough height
see
KOTH (king of the hill) + Wasteland :
https://discord.gg/wskoth
Also asking question 101: share the context
I am playing Arma! is not even a context here
well parachute suck i got shot i was like 500 meter in the air
idk but i was really high
Imagine expose yourself into the entire battlefield and decending very slowly. You're a very good practice target
that remind of the old flying moving platform they tested during the vietnam war
realising going 30 kmh over a battlefield will get you shot
Is their a way to cancel the animation of healing?
no
is their a guide on how to move in a combat zone whiout getting your head blow out instantly?
I am going to repeat what I've said minutes ago:
Also asking question 101: share the context
You need to stop just spamming a dozen questions, half of which are low effort
This too
i find it very hard to play contact, the mission where ||you need to get a UGV from the radar station. The enemy always spots me and kills me. It seems a bit unrealistic to expect we do that by ourselves||
wdym the context?
Any tips? Maybe lowering difficulty?
context
noun
the circumstances that form the setting for an event, statement, or idea, and in terms of which it can be fully understood.
"the proposals need to be considered in the context of new European directives"
#contact_discussion but I used the spectrum to do electronic deception
context? koth, trying to get the objective, getting instantly shot in the head by a sniper, how for this to not happen
IIRC I've done by
- ||save||
- ||checking where the van is with alerting them||
- ||load||
- ||approach to the van stealthy as close as I can||
I am also going to share what Lou said earlier ^ @velvet orbit
oh didn't saw it thanks
So you are asking all of your wonders and really didn't read your expected answers, okay...
I'm wondering how bro managed to breathe by himself
i mean i wasen't tagged on it
Do you know there is a post that doesn't tag you?
Using spectrum device, decept ai and jam ugv. You have it for a reason 😉
Hello @velvet orbit, I am a pro KotH player and I upped my gameplay following these 3 steps:
1 - Stay near your teammates
2 - Hide inside a building
3 - go afk
is it moraly corect to shoot your teammate to steal their weapon?
I don't think it's the one you jam, ||it's Eddie you have to get from the van||
At radar site? Where you have to sneak in? I just carried eddie on the back and deployed it ever so often
Yeah you shouldn't need to jam
Oh where you steal eddie? Yeah sneak in from south and decept ai. Takes some prone work to go undetected
Listen. Do think twice before outsource your common sense.
anyone knows how far can I place the USAF service stuff from the jets and still access it? (USAF mod)
the second we are engaged in tipping point my sl dies and now apparently the mission is bugged
Are you talking about AMS?
i love the ai in this game
the second i try to heal them they go away
the second i heal myself they heal me
Tell them to stand still
i cant, im in campaign
goddamn broken ass mission fuckinoasfdbiupasba
ty ig
capaign still fucking broken
if you play it with mods, yes
More or less, Echo’s Sandbox Anywhere let’s you go into Zeus where you can #end-mission
The game has changed a lot since initial release of the singleplayer
nope, no mods, im on tipping point and everyone just goes off, and when i go back to the city and kill every aaf (painful) it still wont go further
sorry for swearing but understand my frustration please, they tell me that the squad leader shouldnt die but the second we get into the first engagement he dies, like its scripted or smth]
Get Echo’s sandbox anywhere and make him invincible
a mod?
Yeah.
The east wind campaign is pretty broken, and that mod got me through it
You play gta to get less frustrated?
i just murder npcs
"take that, Arma dev, ghyaaaaaah!"
insert trevor rampage segment
i wonder, whta is the arma community's outlook on dayz?
Most of us started playing arma through dayZ
same here
the early days were really fun, then it just got repetitive and boring, but its still a great game
DayZ inspired a lot of games today, like battle royal games
its extremely hard to find guns/ammo/clips for me in dayz
lmao must be shit server
vanilla
I think Life servers also started on arma, then GTA took over
i play official servers (in other ways im a dumbass)
arma2?
dayz, i only have arma 3 so far
ah
actually the reason i really joined this server cuz of the campaign bug
no body plays that shit
Yes, also imo Life gamemodes in Arma 2 were much more fun. I'm not sure what happened with Arma 3, but the scene got quite different
it got too modified
how come
GTA took over, it makes more sense to play GTA life cause it has alot of things that arma doesnt have
like apartments, good car mechanics for drifting, not 25 fps
I mean mostly game mechanics and the general atmosphere
because... its idk, why not just play multiplayer
but doesnt arma 3 have multi too?
arma 2 Takistan Life was the best thing ever
wdym? u can play community made scenarios i guess if u want to play singleplayer
my cat is sleeping ontop of my head hepasfkmaii
Yes! Although I preferred Chernarus Life strongly thanks to the map. I think Arma is still better game for PvP focused light/arcade RP though
Do you remember TLU?
Didn't play there much, I'm a Cherna fan too much 😄
do people like arma 2 most?
we had 2 servers in sync with eachother, 200 players
arma 3 better, more mechanics, improved everything
takistan was fun cause u could be terrorist and fuck with cops
You could do that on Cherna too tbh
then u had the border war, between blufor and opfor. drive in car bombs n shit
Well yeah, there wasn't the border war
yeah lmao, but with takistan, idk it was just so funny, i loved the dancing thing
Good times indeed... I like to joke that I peaked in life when I played Chernarus Life lol
tbh the first thing i actually heard about arma is that one arma song thats on that one anastasia song
the arma 3 song is fucking sick
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M72mO8YTt5g it just suits the game so much
really
the whole aaf invasion or whatever hit so hard goddamn
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_sSaMNHVB4w The beginning of this Arma 2 OST song... If you know, you know 😄
oh duuude, this song https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4WCWzMfBVlM
i also got the conway killed in the first mission i wasnt playing as him, even tough i prefer him over kerry
u know how to operate the jets?
no
i really started playing the game yesterday lmao
play warlords official server
ok ig
its bit tricky to get ur head wrapped around it
but you learn a lot through that gamemode, ill play with u if u want
sure when are you free
also my mic is fucked, roomate threw it on the ground when he was raging WHEN HE WAS PLAYING ON MY PC WITHOUT MY CONSENT
sorry, he is just an arsehole
ye i got no mic either
and he still hasnt paid it off
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZDfcIWQMniY (Description: Arma 2 unreleased gamemode bank robbery showcase) We had stuff like this in the works for Arma 2 but weren't experienced enough to finish it all
oooh bruh i remember this
we used to bribe the police, there was real corruption, i remember u could also elect presidents or something
Yeah 😄
rig the elections so ur gang gets more power
GTA live is pretty awesome
but i dont have a mic so i cant play it 😦
I prefer Arma strongly still even for RP. The maps especially are so much better in Arma imo
true
cars are suprisingly slow in gta, apparently so the map feels bigger
YES it works now
what is the best thermal scope for sniper?
None
- which game?
- which sniper rifle?
- which mods?
- which requirements for scope?
Iron Sight masterrace
arma 3 GM6 lynx 12.7, vanilla, and any requirement
"the best" anything is the one that is the most adapted to the situation and, eventually, you like the most.
Oh
Is their anything to make you undetectable? Or less seeable? I keep getting shot by a tank over 1KM away
tanks have high range optics and thermals
Hello arma 3 community. I wanted to ask some question before I buy arma. So first of all, which edition should I buy? I want to play on RP server like nopixel or Atlis life.
The DLCs provide more content, and two of them large maps, but any gameplay features they introduced were free for everyone. You can comfortably play on (basically) any server with just the base game.
The only restriction would be crewing DLC vics, using DLC weapons, and entirely unable to join any servers set to Tanoa or Livonia.
Reddit says I should buy the apex edition
Seems reasonable
To anyone who play rp servers, how hard is it to play on the rp servers? Am I going to have ton of queuing time?
I thought the RP scene all moved to GTA5
Looking at youtube, arma rp seems funny and fun
Fuck it I'm buying it. Hope I don't regret this. See you guys in game I guess
Ive had bad experiences with some communities because they were toxic
I believe I've figured out a solution to that, took me almost 10 years though...
Solution to what?
To the toxicity in RP servers (and why not on other servers too, but it's the most applicable to RP I think)
Well I have a solution which is to stay away
😄
Real
If you'd like a more guided introduction to the game, let me know; I have a hobby of taking new players through the basics 🙂
Are there any good servers for Prairie fire?
Thanks
can someone explain how this thing works? Complete FNG here
what is this thing
That is a adorable lil fennec fox
Impressive device you have over there. Looks like a Cuteness Overloader 9000 to me.
its like in black ops 2 when you carry woods head like its a weapon
Tbh shame to see the SST mod go off the workshop was a pretty nice mod
Ripper get stickers
If someone is responding straight after you then there is no need to tag you by reply. Only when there is some time between or another discussion topic intervened is it making more sense to use the tag or reply function.
How would you feel about that happening to you?
it was a meme question
Hey all! How you doing?
I guess mine is an meme too. As old as the bible, do onto others as you want to be done onto yourself.
I managed to win the minigame after the 2,000,000th try
Jesus that was brutal
Their stuff is ripped?
If they have a Spar 5.56 I shoot them just for stupidity
I would assume so either that or was IP violation
it was something along the lines of JM and The Opposition team falling out is what I heard
Both JM and rest of Opposition team are rippers
so all of that is banned
Hmmm alright no SST units then...
It’s odd because all of JM’s mods are still on the workshop
But anyway more for IP Rights Discussion
Damn what's wrong with the Spar
hi how can i spawn vehicles with console
yo is anyone here?

I find it funny how according to steam achievements I've got more time as a tank commander than I have inside an armoured vehicle
does anyone have any scenario mod recommendations from the workshop?
It's 556, so basically useless
Against contemporary ballistc vests, but for Syndikats is does it well
In Vietnam they would kill I forgot but it had to do something with the ak47 and m16
in vietnam the brave veteran would kill random vietnamese people for fun, so brave of them, anyway they during the war you would get killed for anything
guys if i buy the gmae with no dlcs is it worth it? ive bought it before but i couldnt find any millitary servers
Searching through the server browser for a milsim group to join is not going to net any good results; you'd need to have their exact (more or less) mod load already installed and running before you could even join. If you're interested in joining a milsim group, head to #communities_arma3 and find one that suits your interests.
As far as DLC go, they are broadly optional, outside of two maps - Tanoa and Livonia. You will not be able to play on those two terrains without owning their DLC... out of the literal hundreds of terrains available on the workshop, this isn't a huge issue.
Also, find the servers through the launcher server browser. Then you still have a chance to load the required mod. But I do think this is like diving in the deep end. It's indeed better to find candidate communities/units through the mentioned channel. So then you know their server name and what they do. Server information in the browser is usually not that clear to base your choice on.
Thank you guys! ill buy the game and do what you told me
There are always more sales later this year, if you do think you want some DLCs
Is there a server that is always open? Like u can join at anytime and just play
When Steam lists % of players that have DLC-specific achievements, is this % out of all Arma 3 owners or only those who own the DLC?
All
Whoah, so maybe 25% of players have Apex DLC damn
Sure probably. Official servers for sure. Player/community owned servers without passwords exist too.
That's really lowballling it. My money is closer to 40-60% have the DLC.

…that was supposed to be a surprise, as we noticed a significant sales drop when mentioned
couild i get some help on what to buy from the game rq
say again?
i need help wiht what to buy due to me going to get the game tmr
@quiet pine p[lz hlp
I guess you're on about Arma 3, then just buy the base game if you have never played any military sandboxes
sure thing! see https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_3:_Getting_Started#Buying_Arma_3 for info 🙂
base game is enough to play and enjoy the game
it depends solely on how money you want to spend, Apex DLC is just Apex DLC, Apex Edition is Apex DLC + some minor DLCs, all listed on Steam
apex is a bit more expesive but im in budget i cant spend any more so should i just get apex or na
Then no
you "should" buy everything, unless:
- it goes over your budget to live comfortably
- the content doesn't interest you
- you're not sure to like the game
after that, the decision is up to you
do servers randomly die?
no, they go on server farms to live happily ever after
okay
Do they turn servers into green chips?
Question does this discord server include ARMA 3
yes
Hey @fossil pasture would trenches be a good idea for the map?
Huh
Ohhhh yea man I’m not even close to being done I’m gonna have artillery battery’s trenches and all sorts
I’m working on bunkers and beach trenches atm also
Oooh, allsorts...
Ohh I understand man no pressure at all take your time i was just wondering if trenches is a good idea
Arma need a trench mod tbf
They have trenches just kinda weird if you need to move them in zig zags and different directions other then a straight line
Yeah i wish i could make some mods i have free time
You can dm me also if you have other questions about my map I’m doin so we don’t over flow this chat
Will do for now imma keep lookin at the showcases
modding is learnable skill
you just got to decide what you want to learn first
I dont have a pc but if i did i would have enough free time to learn
Is it worth buying jet dlc?
if you want to fly those jets that come with it sure
if not, then no
(you wont be able to fly them everywhere, only if mission gives you access to them)
I just want to fly jets and kill people
Im new to arma can somebody help me?
depends what whit
Same
The basic stuff
So i need thw dlc to fly jets when ever i want and kil people?
then no. you can do showcases or find flying missions on the workshop
no
you dont quite understand how arma works it seems
Oke thanks some witg helicopters and tanks?
vanilla arma already comes with few planes, helos and tanks
Ye just buyed it download it rn
the DLCs just add more you can use
and there are mods on steam workshop you can also use
but
?
7 euro for this game rn on steam really good deal
I guess arma 4 will be on xbox aswell as pc
unlike games like Battlefield or COD you dont have access to all stuff in all missions
wait for your turn
Bodycame mod

Ukrainian and Russian
Id tone down that stuff. That kind of lusting makes you look like bit crazy
At 21% of downloaden the game
Oke

you can always use recording/streaming software and put a filter on it 🤷♂️
That's how I do it
can i get help now

if you state your question/problem we might be able to
oh boy cant wait to see some poorly made arma videos on the youtubes titled war footage
o sorry
Lol

hi im trying to play with my friends and when i join their server i cant select role
Ive had luck, when this came up for me, with opening the terrain the mission was set on in the editor then going back to the server browser to try again.
How long did you wait for?
like 1 min
That as well - sometimes on slow connections it takes a bit to load in.
im still waiting in the background
seems like there is no mission running, or just a bad connection between your computer and the server

Guys, can you help me, I have just bought Arma and I joined a server where I couldn't drive half of the vehicles. Why can't I drive vehicles? (I am a newbie)
Which Arma?
Arma reforger
I'm not asking you
Arma 3
Possible reasons:
- You don't own DLCs and the vehicle is DLC dependent
- Mission maker/Server owner wants you not to get in (mission specific thing)
thx
There is a whole Tutorial menu, with tutorial VR world. Asside from the bootcamp/prologue to the campaign. And showcases to try it out on the 2 islands.
Now is arma 4 when it comes out coming to console?
nothing is fully certain I suppose
Enfusion is multiplaform engine
but such things wont be announced this early
its quite possible enfusion will be used for things that are not the arma series too which could be console specific
that is possible too
i bet its going to be like epic games and unreal engine
off the shelf engine for people to use

Arma Reforger
To get started with Arma Reforger it is recommended to play through the tutorial, which provides a simple overview of the basic features of the game.
Arma 3
If you're new to playing Arma 3, it is recommended to have a read of #info_help_tips and especially the getting started guide (https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_3_Getting_Started).
Those resources will provide you with a good way to learn the basics of playing Arma 3 in both single- and multiplayer.

cheers lad
That 'buying vehicles' is scenario/gamemode specific. No clue what you are playing. So I suggest you find help at it's workshop page or the admins of the server you could be playing on.
I play King of the hills and I have delited all the workshop mods
Never played that, can't help. Maybe wiki.armakoth.com if they host that server.
A pre-Reforger's-release branding and marketing guide said yes... however, that was over a year ago.
Okay no problem
@hard igloo , @frank island If you guys are looking for a guided introduction to the game (or reintroduction :p), lemme know, Id be happy to help. 🙂
Thanks I just boat arma 3 and I have the dlcsThat I need. The thing is that I can enter others vehicles but not mine. not the ones I buy in king of the hills, or that is what I am playing, I just get change vehicles skin or you are not alowed to enter invetory in base, when a gun icon show up next to the car exectra
Cheers mate im ready now if you are?
Yeah, lemme DM you 🙂
You dont need to help me, but do you have any idea?
Unfortunately, Im also not a huge KOTH player 😅
I dont know if its the game modes fault, but you have no clue?
Thats definitely not default behaviour, so its gotta be the scenario youre playing. Unload any mods you may have running and try the editor, see if you can engage normally with vehicles and inventories.
Since you only mention the inventory icon, you did try using the scrolwheel to change the interaction?
Well thanks for trying to help!
No I can try it
Yes, It works! Thanks. I have been trying to find it for hours!
You should have played any of the tutorials then... the interaction menu is one of THE basics of the game
Ye I did and i'm kinda embarrassed now
Good call on that, was juggling other things and didnt think of it xD
Anyone know if there is a fishing mod for Arma?
I don't know of any for Reforger. There used to be for Arma 3. I know of two from years back, but looking real quick I see that their download links have expired or lost from Armaholic. There may be one on the Steam Workshop, but might have to search a little.
That's a thing on koth servers..idk why that's a thing but that game mode just won't allow you to access your inventory until you leave spawn
I presume so you cant easily ditch equipment on the ground and change loadouts
is there any tutorial's on how to get a model textured and in game ?
which game?
hey can someone teach me to play ARMA join genral voice
Arma 3
you can use the community channels :
Are you looking to play with people?
pick one channel:
#looking_for_game to tell others you want to play
#looking_for_unit to tell others you are looking for a group
#communities_arma3 to browse through advertised groups
Note: Please follow the templates in those channels (if applicable), and don't use them for discussions.
for how to texture stuff you can find plenty of non arma related tutorials online. for how to put stuff in game there are few things that can put you on right path from El Tyranons, Sokolonko and Battlestad.
Further questions can be posted at #arma3_model
Thank you

Apparently thats a reward for finishing the minigame
Makes sense
I won the minigame a few days ago
@empty sand as you have been told before: this discord is English only see #rules 👍please use English only.
What do you mean,
That on this discord the only language allowed to be used is English and that has been told several times now even with a warning kick from the server.
Rules have never changed on this discord since you last stay.
Can you get muted for making a suggestion in this chat?
simply put yes.
depends on the suggestion 👀
👆
For a mod?
we dont do that here
Kk ty
you have to understand, modding is a hobby
Is there a chat that does?
