    I'm genuinely so excited for the future of this series. As a young man who never got to experience the "golden era" of this game I'm hyped for the next generation and curious on where they'd take it. This game, which is basically a tech preview, is already so promising. Going from arma 3 to this is like night and day! Every little feature and addition just makes me so pumped, this is exactly what the community needed. Not to mention the modding potential. so good.

      Same here, I didn’t have a computer powerful enough to play Arma 2, and once I did finally Arma 3 released and again I didn’t have anything powerful enough to handle that. Jump 7 years later I finally got a computer to play it and now Arma 4 is just around the corner lol

      80% of the appeal of Arma is mods. The base game is shit without them.

    To be honest it seems like Bohemia finally understood that mods are a crucial part of their games and made it really accessible to create them which is great. Looking forward to the future of the Reforger after it gets some mods and Arma 4.

    Some folks might not like how it's becoming more like Squad, but I think that's a good thing. Movement looks way better and less slow and clunky. I'll wait until there's more coop before I try it.

    • @parawill7074
      @parawill7074 2 года назад +1

      Exactly. It needs to be different from Arma 3 and attract casuals to get more money for future content and games. Reforger doesn’t need to be Arma 4 and I like the idea of us playing an upgraded version of Operation Flashpoint on a new engine and other changes.

    • @TheMrseanster67
      @TheMrseanster67 2 года назад

      Fuck the casuals, this is a milsim not a some focused fps like squad. I don’t want to sound like a dick but it’s a stupid take to say the game should be “more friendly”. It’s like saying they should simplify a flight simulator so it’s more appealing to casuals, like guys the point of sims IS TO BE COMPLEX. If you want something easy go play squad or sandstorm.

    I might be in minority, but I would definitely sacrifice HD animations and High Res textures just to have a solid performance. So many epic missions had to be scaled down in A3... Because no matter what, playing a game at less then 30 FPS is not fun.

    The cold war scenario has always interested me! really cool to see an Arma game based around it, I've had my eyes on '83, but Arma Reforger seems like it could hit that "cold War" feeling that I'd like in a modern game.

    I'm really excited about what this has to offer as a preview for Arma 4. I became a fan of the Arma series after getting into the Dayz mod back in the day. A lot of the new features are stuff they have are taken straight from the Standalone version of Dayz, which is one of my favorite games of all time. With the new changes the next Arma has potential to be absolutely fantastic.

    As a lot of people in the community say it: we can bear the lack of assets as long as there is a mission editor. And there is none(well, workbench, but it is not the same.). Even not Eden, but old 2d editor from OFP would do. Still thinking if I should buy this one. As the one who played since the beggining of the series I feel nostalgic towards Everon, but 30€ is a bit much for game with 2 game modes and no SP content or atleast means to create SP content ourselves. On the other hand it would be nice to support BI while they go towards ARMA 4

  • @dredgie9367
    @dredgie9367 2 года назад

    I think this is a great way to help develop everything for the next main game, having modders getting ahold of the tools early will hopefully mean that the tools once ARMA 4 come out they are super refined. Same for the engine on the dev side, hopefully they can learn a lot about the engine and make it a much better performing game (we all know about ARMA 3 issues). Will be interesting to see how quick updates are pushed out not only for content but for bugs and issues. Def one to keep an eye on for going forward.

  • @taekatanahu635
    @taekatanahu635 2 года назад

    I think the most significant reason for Reforger is that Arma 4 simply is not ready and it is still 2 - 3 years away. Because they have a new engine, all of the systems have to be build from ground up and that takes time - and on top of that you have the campaign and so on.
    However by introducing Reforger the community can test the new engine and features, learn the modding tools and so on. From the perspective of Bohemia Interactive it funds the development of Arma 4 and puts food on the table.

    @MrLarsalexander 2 года назад

    I have to say one thing about Arma Reforger, and that is the fact that there is no AI commanding in it as i have seen yet.
    The only way to get a squad with you is to tell that squad to defend your player character.
    Maybe there is something i have not figured out. But i guess that something like that is possible trough scripting anyway?!
    This game should have come with that iyam. That would have made so many possibilites for awesome coop and SP missions.
    Specially one that puts you in a role of squad leader taking orders from HQ. And it would be awesome if you only got new men when you get reinforcements at base to.
    Bot all in all.... This is a really cool game that will give us maaaaany hours of fun. I love that we now have to navigate by map and compass. No more GPS :D

  • @01MeuCanal
    @01MeuCanal 2 года назад

    It would make sense if Arma Reforger would become Arma 4. If devs only release more content to it over time, and after some time, at last release a huge dlc that would turn AR into A4. That would be great.

    • @Official_Rz

    Maybe same system in Foxhole game that a gamemode we will produce our own guns , ammo , fuel , and vehicles as much as we produced , we can bring to the frontline .
    Even maybe some KSS mod From arma 3 . But with animations .
    And with all of this , Enfusion's stability will goddamn rock it .
    Just think a Liberation mode from arma 3 in Reforged and Arma 4 .
    If that happens , arma is gonna be the damn god of her tier .

    The name Reforger itself is an acronym and was an actual historical name derived from
    the exercise which started in 1967.
    Reforger ---> return of forces to Germany
    The setting of AR for our Arma here is based on the Cold War time period between the USA and the Soviet Union.

    I've not played ARMA3 in years becasue it got a bit complicated for me, I like SQUAD because it's like a more accessible version of ARMA so I should like Reforger even more but $30 for a game that may of may not just get switched off at some random time, I can't justify it. Maybe if we had some kind of reassurance from the devs that this will remain a standalone game and be tweaked and fixed and updated for a set amount of time it would be worth it, or even if purchasers of Reforger get a decent discount off of ARMA4. After being stung with BF2042 I'm super reluctant to buy any game that has any kind of risk associated with its future. Shame because it looks pretty sweet as-is.

    I like the work on vehicles. Manual drive needs to be simulated. ie. Gear change, clutch, handbrake, vehicle weight etc.

    Finally the Enfusion development effort has produced a new game. Thanks DayZ!
    Not sure about charging AUD$40 for it though ...
