Hey! If you guys don't have a lot of time to watch the video, most of the recon starts at 5:05 and the majority of the action starts at 20:20 ! These longer operation videos are brought to you by the support of my patrons on patreon. Thank you guys! www.patreon.com/OperatorDrewski
Locus Shadow Squad is lighter and faster action, Arma is first planning tactics, then moving into position then attack and try to stay alive and do your orders
I’ve been stuck trying to find a channel I actually enjoy because it feels like nobody can keep it real anymore, it felt like being with the gang again when watching this, thank you.
As a new player myself and having gotten pretty "good" (meaning: not dying every four seconds) at it I suggest doing the training simulation. It is vital. After you have done that and have gotten used to the basics and whatnot, you just have to jump into the game and start playing. :)
Play through as much of the "Showcases" as you can. You will learn TONS from that. Also, there are like a gazillion tube videos on ARMA 3, including tutorials. It's a HUGE game, with lots of complexity. Tackle it like you might trying to eat a giant cake all by yourself... one bite at a time ;)
I'm in the military...and I never knew the difference between V and Delta formation. Being in the military doesn't mean squat in games imo. Don't destroy me in the comments *covers head*
They were using formation? I get that no plans survives first contact but most of that combat made me cringe. They were all over the shop and had pretty much no initiative at all. If that wasn't AI, and the En could actually organise themselves, they'd have been cut down in seconds. There was a spot there when he ran INFRONT of the gun...are you mad, Always peel BEHIND the fire line, never in front. A gunner engaging most likely wont have the SA to see you about to walk a meter in front of his muzzle, and could very easily give it a burst.
Yeah they're pretty similar. The delta formation is just the v formation but with another aircraft (birds don't use the delta formation as far as I know) behind the front leader aircraft.
i have seen many gamer but no one is like you drewski really you play too well above that you are too friendly. really you got some quality that many few have. really appreciate you.
I wonder... If a mil sim game like this had incredibly realistic damage in the future, would people want to play it? Like, getting shot in a hand preventing you from using anything heavy. Getting shot in the leg slows you down tremendously, or at best makes you limp. Shot in the heart, spine, or the brain (not just the head) is instant death. And maybe even getting shot in a major vein or artery might cause you to lose health rapidly. I feel like people would just quit after being debilitated once or twice.
Mods exist to make this possible in a lot of AAA games with mod capability. For example: Skyrim, Fallout 4, Arma 3. I'm sure there are more, but those are three that I've personally tried out.
game such as escape from tarkov helps fuel that idea only thing is you have to gather weapons and supplies through raids, they’re like mini battle royales but whatever loot you acquire you HAVE to escape from a rally point and need to eyeball the map and know your directions and if you make it out you have that if you don’t it’s gone bud
I'm a 60-year-old U.S. Navy Disabled Veteran (Plane Captain) and I'm also just learning to play Arma 3 Apex. I also bought all the DLC's for Arma. I was on the USS America and the USS Enterprize Aircraft Carrier's when I was in the Navy. I'm looking for a crew who can beat me with a stick till I learn how to play Arma!!!!
Oh man I wish I could have enjoyed this game. It was just too complicated for my brain and most of the players I found didn’t want to teach me. I love the idea and I love videos like this. Thanks
Are these public servers? Your videos are very entertaining and I just got into arma. I want to play some of the same missions as you. Sorry if I sound like I don't know what I'm talking about. Because I don't XD
The lack of Highway To The Dangerzone as you were launching off from the carrier is slightly disappointing. But it's ok. I forgive you. I'm not mad. I'm just disappointed.
Now I'm looking at your old videos for reference on my future gameplay. I want to try arma3 one day and maybe start on antistasi solo first :3 cool video Drewski
At 12:28, silly Drew helicopters are made of steel, arms are not. BTW, way to stick the combat in hostile area landing. Your helicopter appears to need new shock absorbers. ;)
Yes. I play without DLCs and it's still great. There are quite a few units that don't require them if you want to play organized and if you don't, you can only play on Altis, Stratis and in very near future Malden, but not Tanoa. And you can't get into vehicles as pilot or driver (but can as passenger) or pick up DLCd weapons. If you get spawned in with a weapon or pick it up from a virtual arsenal, you can still use it. Same goes for vehicles.
A lot of fun to watch you guys! I wish you would list your mods and/or a *quick* video on how you went about setting that up (it's been ages since I tinkered with MCC)???
I know it's just a game but since it's a mil sim if you want to clear a building or room NEVER stop in the door way it's the kill zone push in and immediately to a corner and the guy behind can cover the opposite corner that way there is no cross fire and you can get more than one gun in the room
its like somone is talkiing at your, say, 4 oclock. then the sound fr my earphones would come like from the 4 oclock. its causing me to be like, wtfff.
If I'm not mistaken that truck was supposed to replace the humvee. I think general motors struck another deal with the U.S. military though with another version of the humvee. It looks much much better and allegedly has better armor and power capabilities.
Your CPU is more important for Arma than it is for most games, and your GPU is less important. My old laptop can technically run Arma 3 and it just flat out refuses to run Subnautica; so there is some hope for you, but it really depends on the exact nature of your computer's specs. Some sub-par gaming PCs will run Arma well, some Uber beasts, will fail, simply because the points of failure for Arma are unusual for a game.

I love these long ops. I can't imagine how much time they take to create, but they're amazing
OperatorDrewski thx for saving my precious time
OperatorDrewski i will watch it all when i have time tho
well i watch all of it so no need to skip lol
OperatorDrewski can you tell me what are all the mods you used for this mission ?
I just wanna say thanks for uploading more Arma videos. I've always found the Arma vids just generally more fun to watch.
The Ghillie Guy Not as fun to play though
Locus Shadow wat are you talking about is it boring or smth.
man dpg I enjoy Squad more than Arma
Locus Shadow Squad is lighter and faster action, Arma is first planning tactics, then moving into position then attack and try to stay alive and do your orders
@@seppalastname4574 Lol, Arma is actually more like 10 Fps gunfights with dogshit AI.
7:52
Perfect time to come into range..
I’ve been stuck trying to find a channel I actually enjoy because it feels like nobody can keep it real anymore, it felt like being with the gang again when watching this, thank you.
has 60fps
drops to 58 for half a second
drewski-REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
I'm just over here chillin with a consistent 28FPS on Arma
Hey drew! Can you make a video on how to get into arma III and what you should know to play it? I picked it up recently and kinda don't understand it.
he has videos in his channel on that, just go back far enough.
As a new player myself and having gotten pretty "good" (meaning: not dying every four seconds) at it I suggest doing the training simulation. It is vital. After you have done that and have gotten used to the basics and whatnot, you just have to jump into the game and start playing. :)
If you wanna give your steam tag I'll invite you to some home made missions me and my buddies play. We aren't serious, just a bunch of goof-balls.
hey Mine BispingBrand, just bought the game earlier today and would like some people to play with once i learn the controls and have free time haha

I love scrolling through the comments of Drewski's videos almost as much as the videos themselves cuz the community is just amazing.

I think mostly infantry an what not use "delta" and such. Us pogs just said wedge column lol.
Yeah they're pretty similar. The delta formation is just the v formation but with another aircraft (birds don't use the delta formation as far as I know) behind the front leader aircraft.
harosokman it’s a game not the real thing. I doubt they are actually in the military
That jet recon was beutiful with the background music. Now I want to create a minigame with that beautifulness.
The hand movements and shit got me dying lmfao omg imagine if a real squad was just screwing around while listening.
i have seen many gamer but no one is like you drewski really you play too well above that you are too friendly.
really you got some quality that many few have. really appreciate you.

This already exists, it's called ACE3 mod
Mods exist to make this possible in a lot of AAA games with mod capability. For example: Skyrim, Fallout 4, Arma 3. I'm sure there are more, but those are three that I've personally tried out.

@@Ninnuam999 Ace mod? Aka I just emptied three pistol mags into the literal ass of this insurgent and he's still spinning around on the ground.
Escape from tarkov
This reminds me a lot of the old Delta Force 2 game by Novalogic I used to play around 21 years ago. Good memories. Good video.
Now that’s a classic that these youngsters won’t remember. Used to play this on an old sony vaio computer in the early 2000s
9:45 i think its really neat how arma implemented a dynamic logistics system into the game
It's like watching a little movie i like it!
Funny profile name
Funny profile name It’s like a LONE SURVIVOR
Calls video squad goals:
Nearly kills team mate because of a lack of communication:
Me:😆
I can’t play. But I love the reality of this. From radio contact to the role play. Well done.
The actual game isn’t like this
The girl in your squad is awesome
i know this is literally a year old but thanks!
+Mama Jamu wuttttttt? i thought you are a boy lol. You rock girl
@@nobeltnium hol up
Hdjfnfxbsnnfnsnsn Fajscjczfnxxfnjssjc wait its an early simp
For the very first 4:20sec I felt like I was really command by a COMMANDER and we are really going for a real operation ! Man DREWSKI
I LOVE that the Angle of Attack indicator in that jet actually worked during his approach to the carrier. Excellent detail.
Good interaction with enemy contacts. This was better than watching a platoon of players for 2 hours and encountering less than 10 contacts.
that girl is clearin rooms like a pro
cuz those are bots
Zambay Gamez naah they are paid actors
that mrap in the video 14:07 is actually a Husky TSV that is used by the british army in afganistan
DREW: *in valley*
ENEMY: "i think drew is in the valley"
D: *leaves valley*
E: *bombs valley*
At 18:30 look at the cliff and you’ll see texture that looks like a skull. I think that means death cliffs
Hey could you possibly reenact the movie 13 Hours
Yes
thats dope how u can see the honey comb from the kill flash in the acog.

This mission is so intense from the get go love it
All I could think of when that BTR came was that scene from Band of Brothers, "You're going to get me killed Lieutenant!"
Oh man I wish I could have enjoyed this game. It was just too complicated for my brain and most of the players I found didn’t want to teach me. I love the idea and I love videos like this. Thanks
Just started watching and already fell in love
10:27 is that a cat with a heart around it
Are these public servers? Your videos are very entertaining and I just got into arma. I want to play some of the same missions as you. Sorry if I sound like I don't know what I'm talking about. Because I don't XD
I think this was a private server
in the beginning. Matt was getting a head start
My first ever Arma 3 Video i had ever seen like years ago Ty
Those rounds cooking off was fucking insane. I’m been with is game off and on since operation flashpoint
4:30 thats some music right there
Thank you so much for this
2:14 OK I’m sorry can you say that again because I was just watching the hand movements lol
I don't know why but this is bringing back memories of delta force.
I think it's the third time I've stumbled into this video, still think this is a one of my faves. That is something I would love 2 play.
I like that guys enthusiasm in the beginning.
Drew is the reason why I love arma
Drew, I highly recommend TrackIR. Especially when flying. It makes a world of difference.
"Sahrani is my favorite map of all of them"
The Fighters of Sahrani Approve
The lack of Highway To The Dangerzone as you were launching off from the carrier is slightly disappointing. But it's ok. I forgive you. I'm not mad. I'm just disappointed.
Dammit now I want to listen to this song
this has realistic rear view mirrors MY MIND IS BLOWN 😱 games have come so far WOW
That cat shot was awesome
Now I'm looking at your old videos for reference on my future gameplay. I want to try arma3 one day and maybe start on antistasi solo first :3
cool video Drewski
At 12:28, silly Drew helicopters are made of steel, arms are not. BTW, way to stick the combat in hostile area landing. Your helicopter appears to need new shock absorbers. ;)
I have a question is it worth buying arma 3 without any dlc? It's on sale right now
Yes. I play without DLCs and it's still great. There are quite a few units that don't require them if you want to play organized and if you don't, you can only play on Altis, Stratis and in very near future Malden, but not Tanoa. And you can't get into vehicles as pilot or driver (but can as passenger) or pick up DLCd weapons. If you get spawned in with a weapon or pick it up from a virtual arsenal, you can still use it. Same goes for vehicles.
Kamran Beg yes
Without
Excellent video as always looking forward to getting this game this week. Have a good one
Hey dude! The vehicle is a Husky. British army use it
the first engagement sounded like the 4th of july
Hitman3000hawk yeah Ik I thought they were fireworks as well
This game is amazing. Please do a lot more of this.
drewski the master of running out of needing to reload during an engagement
2:20 everyone is doing the dance to the ketchup song
Gawd dang Drew, just burning through those mags
When they flipped the car it was just a tactical roll
Wow, perfect feeling of military!
Fardad at least as good as it gets in a game. Arma is definitely the best MilSim out there.
I really love it and its military nature and strategies, but I have almost no one around who can wait and stop rushing in through shooter games!
i know your feeling, almost impossible to find a gang to play tactic oriented games
idk, squads a lot more fun and realistic Imo. @@riteflyer7793
A lot of fun to watch you guys! I wish you would list your mods and/or a *quick* video on how you went about setting that up (it's been ages since I tinkered with MCC)???
ARMA 3 is so accurate burning vehicles actually cook off ammo. That is fucking awesome
The morale boost worked! 😺
I remember the days when we used this template for Ops. Good old days.
I know it's just a game but since it's a mil sim if you want to clear a building or room NEVER stop in the door way it's the kill zone push in and immediately to a corner and the guy behind can cover the opposite corner that way there is no cross fire and you can get more than one gun in the room
I was surprised not to see a scout with the group
That little bird landing was so smooth lol
sick drewsk.i jesters a stress head and i thought sherm was mellow but your mellower
Nice driving skills through that forest bronamous.
@OperatorDrewski What weapon mods did you guys use for this?
Hey can we get a modlist for this video?
its like somone is talkiing at your, say, 4 oclock. then the sound fr my earphones would come like from the 4 oclock. its causing me to be like, wtfff.
This is a crazy game lol. Taking off from the carrier was cool!
This is the best arma3 video I have ever seen love it 👍
If I'm not mistaken that truck was supposed to replace the humvee. I think general motors struck another deal with the U.S. military though with another version of the humvee. It looks much much better and allegedly has better armor and power capabilities.
I like how y'all are taking on 3 or 4 times the amount of people you have in your squad.
Im laughing when matthew said im comming and swimming
The live round cook off is pretty neat
so professional honestly wow
I didn’t realize you can fly a chopper so damn well! And isn’t it Gaia like: Guy Ah?
I guess I'm not the only one with the nickname Drewski lol
Drew Conlin but are you this proski?
“🙋🏽♂️💁🏽♂️🙋🏽♂️💁🏽♂️🙋🏽♂️💁🏽♂️🙋🏽♂️💁🏽♂️🙋🏽♂️💁🏽♂️” 1:55 - 2:48
I need to know what's playing at 6:15-7:00 background (mb a music box)
Why does your friend sound like those twins from superjail! 10:55
2:03 *Casual burp during briefing*
What is the server you play on? is there a video i need to watch to install everything? im so confused
Theyre all privately hosted servers on his pc. We use modlists that he builds then he creates the mission in Eden/Zeus editors
Mama Jamu I see, even the takistan life one?
cool video, good to watch the team work. I liked and subbed
Do u have to buy attachments? Or level up or use in game currency? For attachments and load outs
Is the strategy of planning which place to attack because of reinforcements and stuff is that real in the game or a role play thing?
In an alternate future
Arma devs added "falling off vehicles if crashed" update
You guys communicate really well. Just curious how many of you are prior service? How many are SW engineers/testers?
Guy has Master Chief armour throwing those grenades.
man i wish there was a game like this on counsel
what kinda pc does this game required because I really want it but my pc is so bad It can hardly run subnautica :(
Rlly good pc

Alexander Straight I might pirate and try on my old core I3. If it works I'm gonna buy it.
Im sure you could run it on an ibuypower or something if you're talking pre built
How can i get involved with a co op mission like this? Love the content Drew! Thanks for sharing!
The AI being so absolutely useless really detracts from this game. I would love to see more human vs human games.
'amma go in the backside'
Delta lol must be Chair-Force. Not what we used in Marine Corps when I was active.
do u use keyboard or joystick for Jet /heli controls?
