ArmA 3 Mods - Top 20 Mods For New Players In 2021 [2K]
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 авг 2024
- Hello, and welcome back to another ArmA 3 video. In today’s video I’ll be covering 20 of what I believe are the most essential mods if you’re a new player looking to dive into the workshop. These are completely my own opinion and honestly a majority of these are mechanics changing mods. It’s important to understand the base game mechanics first before getting these mods, otherwise you wouldn’t know what's changing, so when I review the mod I’ll explain what the changes mean for you once you load them into your game. This list is not completely exhaustive or comprehensive, it was surprisingly hard to narrow down even 20 mods that I would consider my top 20 for new players. So with that, let's get into the list.

Was the baby asleep in the other room, you never talk so calmly about Arma
Yes indeed she was, haha
😂😂
@@Viper1Zero wanted to see if u could tell me which of the mods out of the video are client side
😂
I always love coming back to this channel to see how I can further -break- enhance my experience with Arma 3. Thanks for the recommendations man!
Roman army mod
I don’t understand how somebody could dislike this video
It is literally to help new players. Like WTF
Can’t make everyone happy. Lol
@@Viper1Zero and no need to try
I always wondered why almost EVERY video on RUclips has dislikes
They probably got f****ed by a F-16
@@Viper-dr6ko
people just go out of their way to piss people off
I was a dev on several of those mods. I've forgotten how good we did ingame. Thanks for enjoying and promoting 👍
Loving the mod lists. I can't thank you enough for them, as I literally live off of your suggestions. Please keep making them. Thanks.
ARMA 3 never attracted me... and then I saw the mods that took it to a different game in all aspects!
Your videos are informative and done with passion and great love for the game and the community,and it shows!
I think I am going to get it ,I hope it will deliver:)
Thanks,keep it up !
This was the best video for mod suggestions I’ve seen yet. I’m definitely downloading the majority of these to spice up my game thanks a bunch!
My hard drive when a new mod video comes out: "Don't think about it"
Not this one don't worry lol
SSD's are cheap nowadays!
@@thatdude2212 HDDs are even less costly.
@@vaibhavsrivastva1253 hdd and ssd cryptocurrencies : let us introduce ourselves
@@mirago7861 I am interested ; tell me more.
Viper, this is a great video, well done.
I wanted to comment about the Vcom AI features because I've been using it since its first incarnations, and seen its features as they developed.
The reason you don't notice the mines yet is because they're pretty rare as far as chance goes, and the AI are a little more judicious about when to use them nowadays. In older VCOMs they would overuse these mines and the script was so lax in when they could be placed, they'd place them after dying sometimes.
My clan and I always liked it for the chaos it caused, but more "serious" units would probably be frustrated to have their mission ruined when an enemy is killed and then several seconds later, a mine or IED becomes armed beneath their feet with no chance of escape.
Thanks for the vid Viper...I have like 2k hrs on A3 but is just awesome that someone is covering mods with such a quality hope u are doing alright in everything
First time playing ARMA, just subscribed to most of these, thanks a bunch!
Thanks! Recently started playing and your videos are super helpful!
Getting back into arma after 2 years, thanks for the update on the common mods.
Thank you so much for this video! I appreciate your hard work
Just got Arma few days ago and finally starting playing haven't had a full night of sleep in 2 days now... It's so much Fun, and I'm just starting
The fact that im an early access purchaser of arma 3 and yet here i am 7 years later still watching new player videos should hint at the sheer scope of arma 3. you new players have gotten n yourselves into thr biggest war simulator at least available commercially. Good luck! And enjoy
I think you should do more themed videos like,
Top 10 WW2 Arms 3 Mods, or something along those lines.
There's only four! Iron Front, Faces of War, Northern Fronts, and CSA Munich Crisis, in that order.
@@independentomega2701 you forgot Unsung
@@BloodRot_ I didn't really consider it to be a World War 2 mod. Lol
Interesting idea!
@@independentomega2701 And what about CSA 38 bro ? thats ww2 mod too. pretty huge one to be honest.
bought arms a long time ago and just never played it cause i only had a 1660. but now with a 30 series card i’m finally getting into it
Just subscribed. Despite my huge experience with Arma 3, it's good to watch your mod revievs. I'am constantly looking to enhance my experience with Arma 3. Thanks for the recommendations.
Happy to have new and veteran players! Feel free to join the discord!
@@Viper1Zero Thanks for answer. Will do.
I know there’s a lot of great classics you missed but if you’re going to include ACE to revamp medical and combat mechanics you gotta include TFAR to revamp communications! But maybe it’s not suited for newer players, idk
This is quite a list, thank you :D
It's worth mentioning that there is VcomAI Development Build that is far more advanced than current 4.3 version and does fix smoke spamming issue. I have tested it and was amazed to see how my men covered each other when moving around Georgetown's narrow alleys, not getting lost and being able to perform proper street crossing with guys covering both sides of the street... it felt almost like a real thing! Man I love this mod, it is first on my essential list.
That flood light on the night vision looks sick. Now I can use in game more than real life
nice work! Viper1Zero :)
Very useful, thanks a lot
loved the vid and thanks for the info, now i shall enjoy the game
Thanks for the video! Very useful! near future I will start playing ArmA 3 until my PC puts a BIG F of death in my monitor.
Great video. As a noob it is a big help.
Great video!
Awesome video :D
Keep us informed on any new air mods >_>
I also I blame you for fifth of my 600 mods.
Ayyy back with another upload!
Amazing video, clear cut explanation, every link is working in the description! Subbed :D
Welcome!
Good video.
Subbed.👍
Good comprehensive video for us newbies. Thanx for this!!! Good sh!t
Absolutely fantastic video!
Great video helped me modding for the first time. Also there is a MCC mod that has god mode, unlimited ammo, and stamina. Great mod you prolly know about it though.
19:48 isnt that the Eau de Combat theme? xD Love it
Sure is!
Great video! Wondering what mod you’re using for the F-5 at 1:37 though
Nice video
havent played arma 3 yet but just downloaded every mod you recommended, so excited to play!
Oh yea this might be interesting and show me some mods I haven't seen before. "first up we have CBA"
POV: Youre a new player
@@Viper1Zero POV: You got it step viper
@@coldwintr did you read my comment
Imagine watching a video and not reading the title
@@danielgonzalez-kz4gc shut up
Another great video. I didn't even know the VCOM AI mod was a thing, I'm definitely going to get it so I can get even more mad at the AI for being smarter than me. Blastcore and JSRS are my top 2 mods that I never load Arma without
Yea man vcom ai is amazing. My unit uses it.
@@viper_4115 combine it with lambs
Thanks. I installed all mods. Now I have to learn how to play.
hey viper. i am thinking or re-stalling arma3 after a 5 year break from scratch.
do you think you could do a video especially for this kind of purpose, explain how to go from initial install to all cool mods on top?
this game has it, and i regret having unistalled it at the time i strongly needed hardware space for the space hungry flight sims.
i still have the original installation DVDs (i think i didn't do it over steam or so). Thanks in advance man, i love your videos!!!
Can`t wait to try all of these out! Once I upgrade to computer that can handle ARMAIII.... till then, just playing Arma II...for the past..what 15 years? :D. Don't know what I'm missing,if I haven't experienced it..right? :D
Thanks bro :D
You deserve so many more subs dude
Take it from this "Grunt," while I might not fly them, that doesn't mean I don't like seeing Aircraft. Especially the way you display and talk about them. Your enthusiasm makes me aalmost want to fly them, too. LOL. (But I'd end up being one of those aircraft not bouncing when it hits the earth.) Keep on doing what you do. It's always a pleasure to watch.
As always I appreciate the kind words and support, my friend. :) You should try flying in an op sometime! You never know, you might like it! Ha.
@@Viper1Zero Hey, I appreciate quality content and want to do what I can to help. I'm also honored to be able to. Flying looks really cool, but I'd need lots of practice. You mentioned that the Blastcore compiled by Neetch mod is not as demanding as other explosion mods. How does it compare to Arma FXP?
Top mod 4 new players is 'Enhanced Movement' - 4 disable stamina and the ability to remove the gun behind the back in coop, as well as jumping and overcoming obstacles!
I may not be new but still why not watch a lit video
Great video. i just bought ARMA 3
I have experienced them laying traps. when they are retreating or trying to flank they will place any bounding AP mines on the ground where they used to be.
That’s good to know!
All I play is sandstorm. Arma 3 seemed like alot to learn so haven't played it since I bought it. Going to redownload tho.
where are muh chapters viper? I loved it when I could look through for the names and then enjoy your descriptions of the mods (granted I'm at 3k+ hours but I just enjoy watching your channel)
Just put them in! Had to push the upload from my phone while I was out of the house so couldn't adjust the midroll ads and the timestamps! :)
Wooowwww you backkk
I wonder if you could do a guide on the most popular gamemodes ? As a new player I don't really know where to begin or what servers to play, so that would really help and I would be grateful
Thanks for the guide, im a pretty plain ARMA player who is thinking about trying out some DRO again. Last time I played in downloaded the Co mod for an easier time commanding my AI teammates. Will this clash with the VCOM mod in any way?
Just got the game a few days ago thanks I’ve been trying to figure how to have fun without buying all the dlc on top
Welcome to a vast and engaging community. You will absolutely love Arma 3. It's hard for me to play any other tactical shooter as Arma does just everything all and more. 🙂
Fantastic video as always! I was wondering, have you tried the new Blastcore Murr Edition? I've switched to it recently from Blastcore and Hopecore, and it's been looking gorgeous so far!
Man I did, it’s too FPS hungry for me personally and tries to do too much. If they can optimize it a bit that would probably win me over.
@@Viper1Zero True. I wish they could just offer like 5 extra frames and it’ll be ok.
All downloaded. Here we go!
I'll definitely use this one cause I like flying for well that and 2 to possibly improve the arma unit I think im apart of now
I've been playing Arma 3 for a couple of years now and this is the first "mods" video that has adequately explained what RHS, CBA_3 and CUP do for me. But is there a mod that allows the player to use a combat knife as a last resort or for stealth?
AWESOME!
Hey, Viper? What server do you generally play on to get to use all those beautiful air assets? I would be honored if you shared a few tips on finding a good server that lets players focus on air assets for more than just ONE fighter pilot.
I like your videos but i would like to see some top 20 but more focused on infantry and ground stuff
pleas make a video about the importance of playing the campaign in the game. Its happend to many times to me that i have to explain to new players that the ghosthawk and huron are nato vehicles and what the enemy looks like in game modes such as public zeus and other game modes where you can only use your faction vehicles.
Right at the perfect time ❤👌
What an amazing overview. Would LOVE to get into Arma - tried 2 times and even though people were friendly, it was just a much, much too steep learning curve. I got into some servers that was ultra tactical and even though I LOVE playing tactical, it seemded like you had to be a former marine of some kind, to know what the mission really was and how to carry it out. Is there anybody who can be paid to setup Arma 3 with the most common and "best" mods (I know its subjective, you prolly know what i mean :D ) for a new player?
If you're still interested in getting into ARMA, I wouldn't mind giving you a hand!
Why can’t you just download the mods yourself? It’s not hard
@@hmmyou2544 hey I know I'm not the commenter but I bought arma a few days ago on the Steam Summer Sale and I'm trying to get into it.
@@jamisongreen2249 Oh fer sure
@@jamisongreen2249 you got discord?
Nice video. But hard to believe that you fly fixed wing most of the time yet nothing is mentioned on the flight model.
I’d love a top list of recommended coop mods for pve in a private hosted server. My friends and I basically only play Arma Escape Tanoa and a few other small coop mods.
Hello Viper1Zero, I'd like to ask what mod you picked is the one that changes the main menu music of arma 3
Hey viper I’m new to this game and you don’t have to but if you can can you please make a video of your key binds also I have a few mods like the advanced medical thing you showed I have to hold h is there a way I can just click h and let go
hey, can you do a video comparing the Gryphons, Black wasps, Shikras, Neophrons, wipeouts and buzzards turn radius and turn rate? could be good to know whether to dogfight in a one circle or 2 circle depending on the aircraft ur using and the aircraft ur opponent has
Is some of the gameplay footage captured in multiplayer? If so what sort of witchcraft or sacrificial ritual did you do to get that smooth of a frame rate
Let me start by saying you are my NUMBER 1 channel to go watch vids of arma3 mods. I have a lot of mods thanks to you. That being said. I wish you had put the name of the mods in the description instead of just numbering them. For example some vids ill read the description, see I already have the first 5 mods and skip to the ones I know I don't. Either way don't take it as hate speech
You do a great job man. Thanks for your content Viper!
I’ll be sure to place them for ya!
Thanks so much man
ive used all, if not most of the mods in this list in milsim
"Delivering Freedom".... hahahaha :P
The A-143 Buzzard looks like a modified Harrier
Im new to arma, I bought the game under the impression it was modern and took place in like 2013-2019 or something
So i was sorta shocked after realising this was futuristic
Enhanced Arsenal is another good mod, for compatible ammo it actually lets you see what type of billets do more or less damage and each gun’s damage
You should make a video about the Unsung
I wouldn't recommend Firewill A-10 as the CCIP markers (where the bomb/bullets will land) in the HUD are not accurate. This makes guns, rockets, and bombs more difficult to use without using the targeting pod.
Could you do a top single player scenarios list? I've played a lot of awesome ones but i'm still looking for better experiences
This is a great idea 💯
VCOM AI has screwed over so many convoys for me by placing mines around omg how have u not encounter them xD
Hey viper, could you make a video about GCam and how you make your shots? I've been really impressed with the production quality, and I'd like to possibly make some cinematics as well
Already underway :)
@@Viper1Zero you the man. Keep doing what you do best
Would you recommend running Hopecore along with the new Blastcore comp?
You definitely can! It will help the lighting be more vibrant :)
VSM also makes the best outfits/gear by far IMO. They other asset packs don't hold a candle
I am no new player but I have over 80 active mod and I just did a deep 100 clean out and restart all the mod and data to start fresh
thanks bruuh
What type gpu is recommended for this type of shenanigans? I have a i7 10700k with msi 1660 super. I built my first pc at the worst possible time. Plan on getting a 3070 when/if prices come back down.
TCL paired with LAMBs for ai is far better than vcom imo, then theres the sigsound mods that is like the hidden underdog compared to JSRS, everyone and their grandma uses JSRS so Sigsound has been a greatly needed change. Also I really like Blastcore Murr Edition over all the other ones but it can be alot more intense on your frames.
Blastcore compiled by neetch is not maintained for 4 years and it throws errors sometimes.
Great video.
I have about 200-ish hours in arma 3 so i still consider myself a noob, I love how customizable the game is with mods, I've spent hours and hours on youtube and the workshop looking for mods trying to build my perfect version of ARMA 3 with them. The USAF mod is by far one of my favorite even tho i'm a trash pilot i still love my A-10.
the only thing i dislike about the game is my system still struggles to run at a smooth and consistent frame rate. I have a 3060ti and a R7 3800x with 32gb RAM and i still drop below 30fps on a pretty regular basis. I have some friends who just built PC's and was introducing them to arma 3 by setting up a little CAS missions, basic stuff 3 players vs about 40-60 AI and that was enough to drop my fps down to a sold 13.
Yeah, 60 enemy AI is a lot for the engine to think about and definitely attributes to the FPS drop. Honestly, learning a little about unit spawners in the editor and using Zeus to keep the enemy count low but also constant is a great way to "fake" a large scale engagement. It takes a little elbow grease and some know how but the rewarding results are there. Buttery smooth gameplay.
@@Viper1Zero I hadn't considered using Zeus i may give it a try. I've never used Zeus before so i'm guessing the learning curve is pretty high.
Would probably run a bit smoother if it didn't only use like %15 of my gpu lol.
Also I just realized I hadn't actually found your channel before this vid, I just subbed and look forward to seeing future videos :)
I can't seem to use ACE while playing on my scenarios i made on editor mode. It said that j have to be in a match or something like that
Hello!
Thanks for the video. I downloaded most of these recommended mods but I don't know how can I use them. May I use in single or multiplayer? Could you recommend some single player mods and multilpayer servers that use these mods and addons? Thank you.
Hey there! Yes you can use all of them in SP through the editor or any mission you make. Alternatively, you can use them in the campaign if they are mechanics changing/enhancing.
For multiplayer, you would have to join a server that is running the same mods. Trouble is, most servers don't allow just ANY mod because 1) If not everyone has the mods loaded that you do, you'll be running around naked (because you have gear loaded that others don't) and 2) because some of the mechanics mods make things easier for you and not others.
10:13 the base stamina got lowered in nexus update 1.54,
I found this out by going on to the Arma 3: Stamina wiki and finding out it was linked to the Legacy Fatigue Mod.
sad to see as time changes, the game can get worse in some ways
(not sure a bout this but)
Also the woky ass tanks could have been an update from the arma 3 tanks dlc. if you go on the developer diary, 10:30 they improved the driving system for tanks (also was introduced in the tackops mission pack but not on tanks), this could have made the tanks and other vehacles wonky af
20:47 and I quote "Delivering Freedom"
Any mod to BE the Close Air Support instead of ground units ? Any mission generator for that ?
There is a mod compatible with ace called Greenmag,it adds boxes of ammo which can be unpacked and loaded into magazines,does anybody know if it will work in single player
Thank for next video. A little remark from my side - Some from this list mods are meaningless if you have ACE3. For example VileHUD (HUD can be fully or partially disabled in ACE3) or RemoveStamina ( in ACE3 stamina can be customizable in details )
You're right! But not everyone uses ACE, so I figured I'd put some in there that improve quality of life for those that run without :)
exactly! but in turn, I would advise everyone to use ACE3, but selectively! Fortunately, ACE3 is built on a modular system, player can disable unnecessary modules separately (ace medicine, ace balistics, ace stamina, ace explosives etc.) maybe not everyone knows about it. I use ACE selectively and that's great!
