I just played the game and had a blast! A noob like me being around experienced Arma players that know where the enemies are helped a lot to get into battles. Survived over an hour getting into 3 gunfights and capturing points
This!!! Now that I have the basics down, I'll be sure to pass them on to anyone with the Pvt. rank. Had a guy today that didn't know what to do, dropped him my RPG and he hit a moving vehicle. Made me super proud for some reason :D
@@I2italin how much fun bro! I was the exact same I played console for the first time. Did the tutorial like 3 times then jumped into a game and tagged along with some fellas and learnt so much already. And it’s so much fun just driving around with people having a laugh
I started a few days ago, I literally found someone who was barking orders at everyone and just stuck to their hip lol I learned a lot. I now really enjoy running supplies and watching our equipment grow and providing vehicles.
Not many people know but Arma Reforger is a tribute to Operation Flashpoint. The original game mode this is modeled after Capture the Island. W.C.S is prolly the best servers. Really glad to see this come back to life. One of my favorite games I played back in the early 2000's. However, there are many missed marks here. Base building should be a BDRM that is mobile and gives Commanders the option to build bases wherever they feel. In the original CTI you had Vulcan AA, A10's, Frogfoots and a few other jets. You also had the ability to have up to 11 AI under your control that you could have formations and put them into vehicles of your choice and send them wherever you want. This would lead to some epic battles. Where are the tanks? I would really like to see some of these features come back. There is so much potential for this game.
Free base building is mentioned on the roadmap so its defenitely coming in a future update. Theyve also announced more content coming on their youtube channel community post. I guess theyll gradually keep updating the game till 2027 when they release arma 4. Arma reforger is basically a beta to arma 4. They are now testing their new enfusion engine with arma reforger
Operation Flashpoint was such a great game! I’ve been watching Arma Reforger videos for years now. I don’t have a gaming computer, but I see it’s on PS5 now. Maybe I gotta give it a go.
My tip to any Arma multiplayer noobs (which I am also), please dont drive straight to the enemy objective because that is a surefire way to die ingame. You should stop at least 1km from objective or at least beyond line of sight of the town and ditch the car or truck in a safe place (and hidden in trees for example), so that you may excecute these approaches shown in this video without being detected. I thought this would be obvious, but after playing a few games with other probable newbs it turns it was not.
This is 100% correct!!! Took me about 8 hours of gameplay to understand what's going on. But once you start learning the game it is so fun. I love taking three rookies and just throwing them in the battle while teaching them how to play the game.
IFF (Identification Friend or Foe) is easily the biggest issue I run into with teammates who either don't bother to brush up on Uniforms/Camo Patterns/Vehicles, or they decide to look as much like the enemy as possible. I always get mad after I live through a potential team kill because my teammate was so dumb as to either not know the distinctive looks of the vanilla factions (unless they're new), or entirely disregard armbands. I play "Road to Bakhmut", and COVER myself in colored bands, and never wear/use anything but what my faction stereotypically uses.
Still building up the gumption to embrace the suck. I play mostly support/logistics when I can. Any recommendations for this playstyle? I give no Fs how many kills I get. But if I can successfully build shit up or do a massive supply drop that turns the tide of the game, I get stoked. I let you young bucks farm souls.
What a great video, Instead of moaning about new players and saying where we are going wrong, and how we are ruining the game experience for experienced players. You have shown how to play the game I really appreciate the time spent making this I have liked and followed 🙏 U da man
Just watched a video on the deployable radio or mobile spawn point in Arma and gives you about 5 redeploys anywhere on the map and you can take it with you and move about the map with it
There are a few things they could do to improve the game (besides fps/performance which needs some work on console): 1. Have specific supplies for certain tasks 2. Fix the squad situation, squads are all but useless. There needs to be something that brings squads together. I love squad based games and this could be one but 99% of the time I’m rolling with dudes not in my squad. 3.) Officer or commander-there needs to be someone in charge With as realistic as the game is I can’t figure out why they haven’t addressed these things. They could learn a lot from HLL….
This video needs to be played to new players that launch the game for the first time....... I know there is a training mode but I think a video like this would do wonders. Great video very informative even though as an experienced Arma player I love seeing people like us help new players. Cheers!
Would have been helpful for you to have footage of how the supply system works and how to transport supplies when you were explaining it instead of just random gameplay
movement really helps take a few shots (kills) and move i call it shoot and scoot go for one to three kills then relocate make sure to have good concealment/cover if you plan on taking multiple shots movement and positioning is key in arma
also if you are on a modded server utilize radio backpacks they let other players spawn on you giving you xp and helping the team cap an objective i like to sit on the edge of the point just in range of the cap deploying troops
I have played over 700 hours on Arma 3. But not played this game yet. It needs more work for me to get into it. Lets hope it improves over the next year or so. Arma 4 I wish.
Anytime you, Tom, Jack and Stod upload a video about this game, I'm hooked. However, I can imagine being creators you all have 4090's and either Ryzen x3D or 13th/14th gen I7/I9 chips. What's the performance like on a "comman man" setup?
For someone who is trying to get into streaming the game, is there an active discord for people trying to team up? I find when I get into game even on servers like WCS, the squads are never communicating and everyone is kind of just running around doing their own thing.
Honestly just seems like the wave of new players not knowing what’s going on. There’s just too many people that want to be Chris Kyle or just don’t think things through. Hopefully they’ll start picking it up soon because I feel the exact same way as you right now.
You have to join the same Server and then join same Squad. We sometimes use PS Party until we are together. But be aware to leave PS Party to use ingame chat!
None of the servers I have played yet has those armbands to see friend/foe, is this a mod? edit: aah, got the answer. Hope it gets into the default game, its used IRLW so why not.
All I want to know is how to stop looking through the btr periscopes on console without having to get out. Edit: Also how do you make ai convoys work as GM? Do they only work on vanilla maps?
WCS is probably the most fun because it has the modern weapons and vehicles. But I've also had fun with the Vietnam mods as well. Go over to multiplayer, check the servers. They'll be a little puzzle piece telling you what mods you need. My computer automatically download them when I click on the server. On console you might have to go and download a manually but it will give you a list. I suggest taking a picture on your phone or screenshotting it if you do it manually. Hope that helps. See you on the battlefield!!!

I do this with my friend. We simply run supplies and build bases. Thats it. It's actually very rewarding. You're welcome to join us.
Think about the map in segments or thirds. When one area looks low in supplies and players, that's a priority for reinforcement
Supply bases that are fueling the frontline and fall backs for those. You are basically supplying the advance.
What a great video,

Can you do a setting and keybinds video, my game looks great in daytime but night time is rough

awesome cheers for the vid 🤯
is there a way to see enemy supply points on the map to set up ambushes ect? or is it just a case of finding them or guessing?
13:00 - Montignac isn't the actual point, its the farm on the east side
Edit: 15:04 - yeah because that's the objective
Depends on the game/mod
Good stuff!
What mod did you get that had the acog with the acss reticle
Its optimized?
Can't wait to get in on this. Can't decide between PS5 or Xbox though. Fuck off with PC comments cos I don't have one lol
