RIP to the squad I forgot to take off "CARELESS" at 0:32 lol.
Comment down below with some of your own tips you wish you would have known to better help new players out! The player base's level of knowledge is unending!
Love your vids :D Come do a video on my server sometime I am sure you will enjoy! Keep 'em coming! steamcommunity.com/groups/NoobSupremesforSLT
@Cairo Spencer @Kareem Jamir faff off bots
i know im randomly asking but does any of you know a trick to log back into an Instagram account..?
I was stupid lost my login password. I would appreciate any help you can give me
@Jaxton Jerry instablaster ;)
@Austin Otto Thanks for your reply. I found the site on google and im in the hacking process now.
I see it takes quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.
Most important rule: The most dangerous thing you can encounter in Arma is the Z-axis. Stairs, hills, ramps and scaling rocks are all deadly
*falls two feet*
S E E S R E D
Yes, be careful for these
So true lol
Ditto DayZ xD
And parachute
Ah yes, during my first time I spent almost an hour in the Arsenal just to make myself look operator as fucc only to get clapped by a CSAT private, I’m pretty sure we all went through this during our first times in Arma
We've all been clapped from 3km out by the advanced AI with a pistol.
Viper1Zero meanwhile friendly AI: fails sentry task in Breaking Even
nothing to do with the first time, tactical barbie is a recurring theme
Tactical Barbie is probably my favourite thing to do in the game.
@@Viper1Zero Advanced AI with a dirty look is enough to get me killed :(
heres a big tip i found, always run up and down hills sideways cos the gamedoesnt count that as going up or down hill so your stamina doesnt get drained
Or download a stamina removal mod ;)
@@Viper1Zero i know alot of people hate armas stock stamina but i actually dont mind it, once you figure out how it works and how to manage it it becomes quite fun, its also a big balancing factor to stop everyone loading themselves down with body armour, supplies and a heavy gun covered in attachments
Like irl
when i first started i didn't knew HOW ZOOM WORKS, i played the first 3 hours of the campaign shooting with ironsights without zooming at all, imagine my suprise when i found out
KEK
Funny, I went through my first few games not using iron sights because I only knew holding was to zoom and thought you just couldn't aim down irons
@@potto1488 Same lol. I thought it was like some CSGO Type thing until I learned that you only had to click
@@potto1488 I just bought the game and I learned about how the zoom works right away only because I have previous experience on scum which also has the same aim mechanics
I have 420 hours (not a meme) and i just figured out how to use X20 magnifiaction instead of X5
The best tip i can give for a new player : arma is a SANDBOX, you can make the game exactly how you want it to be. There's a lot of differents game mode, PvP to PvE , solo, multiplayer of course. Arma can be repulsive at first because you will say "ok and now, what shall i do ?" , there's no defined game mode like in call of duty or battlefield where 95% of players are going in. You have to CHOOSE which one you want, so don't be shy and try differents things, differents servers and may be one day you'll find a server and a game mode and say "hey i like this one and this is fun !" and there you go. So you have to find your own fun, that's exactly how arma is supposed to be. I can only recommend playing with friends, and my most played gamemode is Liberation, if you're curious just take a look ! See you on the battlefield private
Definitely this. I'm a coop guy myself, running a small unit and playing our custom missions together. We aren't into PvP. But there's plenty of role play, king of the hill, invade & annex and other game modes.
Whoever says "Arma should be played this way..." is really, really wrong and hasn't understood the concept of "sandbox"
Thanks for letting me know! I picked it up during a steam deal a few days ago, and I've wondered how to play the game outside of campaign and editor. The campaign is fire though. Love this game so far with 5 hours in
When I first got it (just yesterday) I just p it a bunch of hostiles in a town and called it 'Fallujah Simulator'
I download mods like a heroine addict lmao
Same 😂😂
same
Same.
Why is this true for me for every game
LMFAO
I play ArmA 3 since autumn 2014 and after all this time, the whole game got 10 times better. Even the vanilla game with the Eden Editor or the many new mods
The one tip I have to share is this. Never expect any mission or simulation in the game easy. Just like Squad, you’ll need people to help you if you are new to the game or stay in the bootcamp portion of the game or editor until you get used to the combat the game has.
Hi can we have a chat here I want to question you about this game pls reply
If you’re new but want to play multiplayer give co-operative mode a try with servers like 77th JSOC which contain a bunch of people who are happy to help new players. Love Arma and nice video man x
I always explain that ARMA is really just a sandbox which allows people to make or play different multi and single player missions. Mods well explained 👍
I’m thinking of getting ARMA 3, though I’m a bit put off by the realism, as the only realistic shooter I’ve ever played is RS2.
@@f-35enjoyer59 Watch plenty of gameplay videos to see if its your kind of thing. Its not for everyone. Squad is a less realistic alternative
"Its a sandbox with a militaristic focus" is usually how I explain it
It's finally dirt cheap and downloading now. Yeah! $7 on Steam!!!
damn, I really want to play but its 30$ ;/
@@Vulces Don't feel so bad, it crashed my computer a lot so I refunded.
@@scaleworksRC what are your pc specs? I’m not worried because I have more than enough to run the game easily
@@Vulces Ryzen 5 6 core 5.9ghz processor, 32gb ram, and an outdated Radeon Rx550.. but you know how it is with GPUs now. This game should run though, because I'm playing destiny 2 at a steady 40fps and ARMA wouldn't even install without crashing.
@@Vulces its $7 on steam right now
It’s funny that we never stop learning how arma iii works. I have like 1000 hours and I still learn new things - whether it is a control key or aspect of the game.
It mostly happens by accident but still...
I'm 2700 hours in and still learning as well. I've learned things from people's comments and I'm just like holy shit.
@@Viper1Zero very true. I think in the case of Arma III and DCS, the complexity is what adds to immersion and makes them stand out
Gosh, I only learned that R could be used to lock on hostile radar contacts only when I had about 2400 hours
@@grassakayourlawn tell me more :O
@@status_data So scrolling through the controls you learn a lot about what you can do, I have my arrow keys set up to make those 2km runs less painful with a bit of auto runs.
One thing people need to know is that you can search multiplayer servers from the launcher and automatically download all the mods you need for the server you choose. Easy. Otherwise its a huge pain.
Someone else pointed that out as well, that is a great tip.
Finally ordered my first gaming PC, got the 3080 and should be here next month. Very excited to get into DCS and this, as more friends are open to playing this, than a full sim like DCS.
@Exhithronous to be honest... been playing DCS and other games, I couldn't get my buddies to play ArmA so it has just been sitting in my library. But DCS is awesome.
Man, I've got 1700 hours on this game now but some of this stuff I didn't even learn until I had a couple hundred hours. I definitely wish you were around to make this video when I first started playing. On the other hand, it was a fun experience finding out and learning all of these things and applying them in scenarios and campaigns. I believe a healthy balance of tips and tricks and learning by yourself is great for Arma 3
Is it fun for an 11year old
Thanks for the vid. I've had Arma 3 for years now and been playing on and off but now I feel like actually learning it
In the editor, You can spawn in DLC aircraft directly through the menu and fly it just skipping a pop up of not owning the DLC. You can fly until you are in the aircraft
The editor let's me use and spawn any DLC items I want, but it puts up pop ups to convince me to get the DLC.
Now if someone in the discord asks what to do imma just link this nice😂
If I had to give a tip, for someone who bought ARMA for the realism aspect when it comes to a millitary simulation, You have to give the Milsim community a chance, It's some of the funnest shit. You have to find a good community, and you'll have a blast.
Clear cut and well paced, another great video!
Thank you for making this. I just got Arma 3 yesterday and I’ve been looking all over the internet on tips and tricks on how to play this game.
Great video man. Just started playing arma 3 couple of months backs your videos always come through. Your mod recommended video really helped me out thanks yo
I will for sure give this video to new players. So they have the best Tips and tricks that there is. Great video btw!
Very nice Viper. In 20 minutes you managed to cover almost everything that new players should like to know.
Finally got notified about a new video. I didn't get notified about any of the VTOL VR ones which is unfortunate. But I'm glad to be back in the notification squad
As always - fantastic content, if only it was around when I started 15 months ago, would have saved some angst! Really great stuff here for the beginner+. Keep it up my Man.... Peace Out ✌🏼😎
Just got Arma during the sale last week, thanks for these videos.
Nice video once more. Suggestion: at the loadout part, I was expecting to hear how much ideally to carry because some beginners don't know that carrying a big gun and lots of ammo or items inside a backpack weighs soldiers down and increases fatigue.
Great suggestion and tip! Weight matters! Although I'm sure a lot of them will end up downloading the mods to remove stamina because damn, your dude would absolutely fail a PT test with the endurance they have lol
@@Viper1Zero Yea, you're right. Only if they are playing in MILSIM that don't want such mod should weight put into consideration.
Came to learn how to play, spends 2 3rds learning about mods and editor...
Joking aside great video. Was looking for more information on basic tips to survive and get better, like the tips about crouching and laying to the side, but I definitely appreciate all the info! Once I get better at the basics I'll definitely be diving more into everything the game has to offer
Great work and tips from a veteran from A1 to now in A3!! Great touch points bud and good work!
Duuude! This is the best tutorial video, quality wise I've seen! Amazing job!
Instantly subbed!
Very informative! Thank you for your time and effort!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
thanks man I’m get arma 3 today and this is really going to help me
I just got into pc gaming finally and am downloading Arma 3 now after following content for nearly a decade now. Thanks for making such a well articulated tips video for beginners. This has and surely will be an asset for many players.
Welcome to the chaos! Hope you enjoy it!
Even though knowing most of this from the few months I've had in arma, I still learned a few things, thanks!
Thanks man, this helps a lot as a newbie. Glad I found your video, pretty straight forward!
Very helpful, thank you! I learned a few things for sure!
The thing I hate about Arma3 guides is they're usually long-winded, tell you obvious stuff, dont tell you want you want to know, or are just plain-old useless.... except this one. This is one of (if not the only) Arma 3 How-To videos that was actually super useful, and didn't waste time with unnecessary info, Fucking-Bravo good sir! Bra-fucking-vo!
Lol Thanks man, appreciate the love! I try to get to the point with all my vids and cut as much fat as possible.
That's a fine selection of an example mod in the mod installation process!
I thought I’d go with one of the better mods ;)
Thanks for the advice! I just got into the game a couple months ago lol
I can't thank you enough for the amazing info, so much learned in so little amount of time.
Happy to be of help!
So like I got arma today and I want to join a online server cuz I wanna hear the brrtt and the realistic shooter experience but I don’t have any dlcs and every time I wanna play death match or any other quick play thing but it doesn’t work so I tried to join a server still can’t find any do I need the dlcs to find a good server or did I waste my money and should gotten squad?
About plane gamplay and view distance, I would really recommend getting mod that changes view distance depending on vehicles etc., for example, when you are on foot your view distance is small, when you are in ground vehicle your view distance is a little bit bigger, and when you are in plane or heli your view distance is huge
Thank you sir. Not everyone is willing to share info to help us new guys. Thank you for this. Much appreciated
Your videos are awesome!
Makes me really wanna try this game!
Greetings from Brazil!
I always thought this game was a survival game, i bought it the other day but haven't played it yet
You’re thinking of the DayZ mod from Arma 2.
viper how do i make the nimitz carrier more like alive and populated because the ai doesnt know how to do take off and its kinda boring in the editor so can you help me please?
I believe it'd be super helpful for newcomers. very nice!
Hey hey, two years later but i have nearly the same config you have wrote in the description but have a better graphic card and no SSD, what settings you use ? I don't find a video on your channel talking of this
Brilliant Cover mon...just subbed & all in... to giver again.
How do you go third person when playing combat patrol I’ve tried num lock and enter but neither work any help guys ?
new intro nice.
Thanks for the vid cause I plan on getting this and a laptop
There is so many damn button combinations
Hey I'm using a su-30 mod and they have show me error no entry. Can you please help me.
I just bought it last night. It got announced for sale on my wish list on steam. I'll download it later this week or next. I'm completely new to MILSIM and I been thinking about Arma for a while. Wish me luck.
Same here I got the ultimate edition for 30$
I’m stuck on this thing when I boot up arms it takes me to google chrome steam what do I do
super helpful! subbed
This video will help a lot of rookies, thx mam
Hey Viper1zero.. if you want to check out a mod that has the detail of a completely separate game yet highly underrated, pick up the veteran mod off of steam.
It has a huge array of great looking models of nearly every gun used in todays battlefield (including almost every AK variant ever). All the guns have a safety mode. also the iron sight are wonderfully simulated with the two moving independently like on a real gun and not just glued perfectly to the center. the recoil is also extremely good. on top of that you have the variety of ammo types. The Pistols are shockingly good, its almost hard to describe they actually feel like real handguns in terms of their 7 + meter accuracy and recoil (speaking from personal experience)
also great looking optics that are super advanced... for example a few have illuminated reticles... the scope specifically meant for the PKM and PKP machine guns has a reticle that moves accordingly when you shift the ranging. most of the scopes are 3d models that your character actually looks down (not PIP but not 2d either. there are a few exceptions that are 2d such as longer range scopes most of which are 2d, but I can see this changing considering it is still WIP) also the thermal scope is downright impressive, you can change the caliber and color filters it is pretty cool.
There are not a lot of vehicles however there are likely more that will be added (WIP) however the ones that are in are very impressive, if you are using the marine LAV you can see the dial on the bushmaster cannon works, also the recoil effects vehicles differently (ie a techi with a 14 millimeter canon will shake the car in the direction the gun is pointed away from.) the MI-8 helicopter while you cant open the rear doors you can open the rear emergency exit as the rear gunner. but the sounds and handling on it are incredible. some sounds on some of the mounted turrets and mounted rockets are not spectacular and just stock sounds but the couple that are finished sound AMAZING (missile wizzing, nice explostion sounds etc)
also in terms of mechanics this mod is a complete overhaul like ACE, but more tame (no annoying buzzing noise after 1 magazine of fire) it has a more advanced medical system suppression and (i may be wrong) movement system. overall this is a direct and very good competitor to the ACE and RHS combo definitely worth the pick up... the mod is as i stated WIP but that just means it gets better from there
if you want a good combo i put it together with :
Enhanced missile smoke + lighting EFX mod
ArmaFXP
CBA
CUP weapons and units
Blastcore Murr edition
Ratnik Plus (cup)
I just got the game for 38 dollars for the game and dlc. This really helped
Just really starting to get into Arma. How is the vehicle arsenal useful to players if it's only use able in the editor?
are there for example, single player missions to chosse after im done with the storyline
There are single player missions in the steam workshop
Hey so how do I make Arma to where I can have it as a window and not a full screen type thing?
Look in video options. Screen resolution, there should be an option for borderless window/full screen
Do I need to buy the Zeus dlc in order to use Zeus mods in single player campaign?
Thanks for the information I get the game a week ago and is very stressful
Well, that decides it then. Payday comes around and I'm getting ARMA.
how's it
@@uzair-v8c Got it, but haven't had a chance to play it yet! XD Work is a bastard atm
@@uzair-v8c
I love it. At first I was a headless lost kitten. I just kept going servers until things fell into place and started making sense. Even in my short time of playing I’ve had matches that have surpassed anything in my over 2 decades of playing war games.
do I have to download the arma 3 game first than get apex edition or can I just buy the apex edition which is the same as the original?
Yesss been waiting for this
Your contribution deserves respect.!😀
so i dont need to own dlc to play on some servers that implement that stuff?
18:42 Another option i use is MRB Vehicle Visibility, that mod allows you to set your object view distance down, yet you will still see vehicles as long as they are inside your terrain visibility
Great mod! Covered it in a previous video. Definitely a must have.
Hi i got arma in my steam library and i fear to enter and play it . How to get over this fear ? I dont have any friends to play it and i think its hard to play it even in single player because all the controls and things .... I see a lots of videos with arma but i dont know how to get over the fear to play it ... Pls help ? ( and sorry for my english ... its not my native language )
Additionally to the Mods Tip - The best tip I give to people is unless you plan on doing Vanilla ArmA 3 - Make sure you have about 100 GBs free for the 250 Plus Mods you eventually will subscribe to.
I have about 351 Mods subscribed to date (03/16/2021)
thanks man i have been strugalin with dlcs what to buy and not
Stupid question but how the hell do you start the base campaign if you own contact?
6:16 talks about immersion while showing footage of soldiers with their arms through their weapons haha. I still love Arma, even though multiplayer is insanely complicated..
No game is PERFECT, especially this one. But it’s still one of the most immersive games anywhere. No one can argue that.
@@Viper1Zero agreed, it is awesome 😎
im thinking about getting it but i have a 60 percent keyboard would it be playable with this type of key board?
You need a full sized one to have the best experience
You forgot the most important thing for close combat movement. Its dubble C it keeps your gun ready to fire all the time when not spriting, making the time you have to wait when without dubble C obsulete. 90% Of the playerbase doesnt use it for some reason. Its like the first hand rule of being a good player. Sneek gun raised, jog gun raised and sprint. No inbetween. It safed me a million times and gave me the advantage over the enemy
thanks for the video....please make a "PERFORMANCE" video please as soon as possible.... its very needed ...thanks again.
Great tutorial!
I might link to this video in my own next tutorial! If that's okey with you.
Perfectly fine!
Hello I really enjoy your content from Turkey
This video is so good my dude. Explains perfectly what Arma is. Thank you. You are bringing new players into the community and you are helping Arma grow. I salute you sir.
new tip, video , how to use personal arsenal in game, key to initiate in game or how my different ways to start it up, how to add different packs and how to pack and sort the different items for bdu, jackets , slings and carryall backpacks etc and what is best to take in each item type. Most videos tend to gloss over a lot of these topics and talk about them only in the editor and not while your in game and gearing up.
I found many things that you said but if had known that it would have saved me a shit ton of work! But now I have the problem that can't find tutorials for the next step I mean like the next next step not like skipping two steps I would love if you could do it or at least recommend some one that had already done that
I'd love to try and help, just don't know what you're trying to do from this comment. lol
@@Viper1Zero I had known all the stuff with the leception from the leaning thing I searched for that shit for a long time and there are videos of that but they are like an hour long or not the topic i searched for as an example I still don't know how to use the radio or how to let your Ai do the things you want the little things that you need the most
Thinking of buying this game ? Is it survival like day z ? Or what’s the main objective as far as pvp and stuff go
+1 just for the Gameshark bit.
If you were to go into a wasteland server would your characters appearance and the vehicle modifications like changing gun and rockets save
can i still drive standard in game vehicles like humves and tanks without a cetain dlc or do you need one still ??
Yes you can. You just can’t drive the DLC vehicles unless you buy it. You can be in the game with them, but just can’t use them.
@@Viper1Zero thanks man 🙏🙏
Would you consider sharing some of the missions you made if you make them?
steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2295599580
Here is the only one I've made :)
I just got the game (its still downloading currently). i bought the base game not the apex edition because, i thought i only wanted the game and the jets and the helicopter dlc since its cheaper. idk ill see if a truly need the apex edition or im just fine with those two dlcs
I'm subbing to you thanks so much
Gameshark?! I haven't heard that one in a while lol
for mods I recommend A3Launcher.
i want to tell that to the people who want to download mod.if you download and enable too much mod it will start to use your ram alot and this is from my experience playing arma and ravenfield so i definetly recommend to use 32gb of ram if you want to have more mods.i recommend disabling the mod that you rarely use
Can you please share your keybinds for the x56 hotas?
yo viper
i want the stuff that spawn in the editor to be able to b edited in zeus
GAMESHARK FLASH GAMERS RISE UP
I've also definitely failed to fully exit foliage before lasing my bomb target before...
My hot tip (650 hours played) is ALWAYS traverse elevation changes (stairs, rocks, steep slopes, etc) standing up. Not crouched, and definitely not prone. For some reason, that's just asking the engine to wedge you in between polygons and decide that you've been killed by crush physics.
Will a Ryzen 3 3200g/rx 580xt 8gb/16gb RAM run Arma 3? Interested in trying it out being that it is third person military tactical shooter.
