Man a dcs/arma mashup game with an engine like this would be sick. The ability to do high precision air strikes against player troops, fight for air superiority, and run ground ops all in the same game with multiplayer would be absolutely insane.
I don't think it would work if the games were in the same engine. That being said, multi engine solutions exist like used in flight Sims for a long time. IE external flight model projection
honestly, with the way reforger is looking, arma 4 probably will be like this. except not to the extent of dcs, maybe like IL2 but a little more arcadey
Always hated the way people can snipe you from kilometers through grass and stuff and you basically cant see where you are shot from, but this is something else. The realistic foliage adds the real fear of everything being a hiding spot for the enemy, but also, you can determine where you are getting shot at, from foliage density and tree cover. Edit: being shot through grass and stuff because it wasn't rendered.
I think if they add the effect of being tired from running back and forth for the whole night, it should be harder for snipers to deal such amounts of damage. You basically have to sneak up to the enemy positions through terrain while the regular soldiers use transport to get around and are in the middle of resting. Snipers should be getting debuffs that will make you play less aggressively and hide more. Bullet wounds also need to be attended properly or they will get in the way or make you even more tired. Flare guns should also be added for making it harder for snipers to take advantage of nighttime.
@@PHAS71 thats impossible to do like what you equipt a sniper after looting someone and now you have debuffs? on top of that it would literally ruin every snipers tactic ever of shooting than moving
@@RustyIv not nesscessarily impossible to implement something that acheives a similar effect: a fatigue system based on total distance traveled on foot in a given timeframe with standing next to a fire or sitting down being a "rest period" that reduces fatigue. A sniper could still use the tactic of shooting then moving as they would easily be able to rest after repositioning. This keeps the current strategy viable (but not overpowered) because it lengthens the time between shots taken lest the sniper risk being found as a result of fatigue-induced movement speed debuffs
@@RustyIv another way to balance this tactic is simply by adding foliage movement debuffs and sound cues for rustling through brush, similar to Tarkov. Snipers could still easily employ these guerilla tactics but they would be forced to think about when and where they shoot from to avoid getting cut down by suppression.
This is probably the most realistic interpretation of being in the woods at night in a game I’ve ever seen. Woods at night are literally pitch black. I get the same feeling watching this as I do in real life being in the woods alone.
Honestly it depends on the season a lot and what phase the moon is in, full moon in fall with no leaves it's barely dark at all, new moon and middle of summer yes it's definitely pitch black
For sure. Full moon on a January midnight at 65°N, snow everywhere, I can read a book just fine. Same latitude mid June, no moon, I can also read a book. Same latitude, mid December, no snow, no moon, it’s so dark I can’t read a book even with a headlamp.
The thing missing is that you can't move in those dark woods very fast without tripping on something, making tons of noise etc.. Right now you can sprint strafe without problems.
I doubt many people will notice this, but you playing the Halo Infinite version of “Under Cover of Night” while talking about foliage and concealment during night ops didn’t go unappreciated!
"I turned off all the lights in my room and I suggest you do the same" Jokes on you Drewski, it's 4pm all the lights are off and I've got cardboard taped over my windows to block sunlight. You merely adopted the darkness. I was born in it.
I'm super interested in how they're going to do nightvision in the future, ArmA 3 got IR Illuminators in it's end of life cycle, so I'm curious if they plan on making IR illuminators actually important this time around, as well as potentially making IR lasers more important by making optics blurry under nightvision.
I'm hoping they'll add something like a fire support system where you can call in continuous illumination shells over an objective area or grid square for X amount of time. Would be super fucking neato.
Hopefully they don't do any night vision in this game. Only other thing they should add is flares. However when they make Arma 4 then obviously that will be a different story.
It's based in cold war era to keep it accurate I did find out however they did indeed have nvg in cold war era but they were the crap ones the one lens one
I have nearly 4k hours in Arma 3, i havn't played it in nearly a year now, but damn am I excited for Arma 4. The improved FPS, far better visuals and foliage and a less clunky UI are all proof that BI listened to the comunity about what the next gen Arma should be. I hope to see aircraft, boats and tanks in future patches. Man I feel the same way i did when i first bought Arma 3, nearly 8 years ago...
@@yosyp5905 2 - 3 years until Early Access sounds more plausible. Bear in mind they are still rewriting many of the old systems and possibly even adding new ones. On top of that they have to create the campaign et cetera - it is a lot of work. If Bohemia would have been able to deliver Arma 4 from one year from now, most likely they would have skipped Reforger altogether.
My favorite part so far in PvP is due to how more milsim centric Reforger is, shit like land navigation is an actual useful skill to have and is funny to see most of the team usually just stick to roads and trails for easy ambushes. Hopefully Bohemia doesn't change that.
@@jeraldehlert7903 1989 they said. military used gps back then. but more the cute lcd arrow version then a fledged out google maps. but any veteran arma/dayz player should be able to navigate without much troubles even through forests and everything, a compass is luxury equipment for that.
Me and a buddy had the idea of killing a couple players, stealing their clothes and weapons and just walking into the enemy FOB. we never made it that far as we had been getting disconnected a ton
yeah the spontaneous disconnect issue is annoying; I've also been getting crashes whenever I touch the options menus while in-game so gotta avoid that (seems ok at main menu tho)
i managed to do that before a disconnect one time-- we drove up to a checkpoint manned with 6 enemy players in one of their vehicles, all of us wearing their uniforms. they let us through, I said "i can't believe they let us through" to the guys in the car (i was driving), and then I guess they heard us because they opened up on us and we all died.
"Easy lad... There's too many of them, let them go. Keep a low profile and hold your fire. Try to anticipate their paths. If you have to maneuver, do it slow and steady, no quick movements."
its nuts the level of difference from arma 3 vanilla, you can actually play tactically, the gunplay is actually sound (despite issues with servers), the level of communication and squad play you can use is so much more indepth, despite a lack of lots of content whats currently available is of really good quality, it does show off what to expect quite well
@@BluntSmokeTrauma that's not the important thing, graphics aren't the main thing you have to think about for the game, sure if they're good it's better but what are good graphics without a good game?
This looks amazing. 32 yrs old here only recently got into gaming a few years ago. Never played Arma or squad or eft. Only played pubg and a few single player games. Seeing this game makes me really excited to play. It looks amazing at night
If you have your own room you can :-) I usually keep the lights off and my colleagues comment on it every time. I just prefer them off, it's easier on the eyes (for me).
Here it is! I knew someone had to comment about this moment, it was so amazing and hilarious, and drewski apologizing for being mean was icing on the cake.
1:54 This scene with the 3rd person and rain totally reminds me of Ghost recon Breakpoint or Wildlands, that just says alot about how far Arma has come.
I really dont think they will do much with it, Its just to showcase there new engine and use it as a test bed for arma4, the community will carry it more then the devs i think.
if this is compatible to arma4, maybe they expect us to start working on mods with it. looks more like a testclient version of a game for me, comunity as unpaid testers..
Finished watching a video, went to my home page, this was posted 23 seconds prior. Also I'm sure I played with you in Squad and saw you get sniped right in front of me.
@@chrispyoperator5014 It isn't. It's a hybrid, it uses the renderer from Enfusion but the rest is still Real Virtuality, or modifications of. I'd also like to see recreated assets that take advantage of the newer tech. The scaling is the most obvious improvement from older games too. Buildings are unrealisticly small relative to the player in the older games, they're far, far more true to life in Reforger.
THIS is what arma is for, guerilla warfare, small squads, realism, i just love the cooperation of that US squad that assembeled a SEARCH PARTY to look for the enemy, and the suppression too!, i was too tired of the scripted operations in ARMA 3 that are everywhere on youtube, i always needed this type of "sandboxy" gameplay, where you dont know if you'll be ambushed or not, or if the enemy is looking at you, or something like that.
I’m really hoping we get some cool 80s spec ops equipment, maybe ghillie suits, nvgs, etc. in the form of mods. I don’t know how they would balance it yet (I.e. keep EVERYONE from using it) but I’m hoping we do get something.
@@shoeby9273 it’s the 80’s, Tacticool hasn’t been invented yet. Night vision systems are shit, night scopes are huge, and everything is few and far between. I’m talking Black Hawk Down style special forces, not Seal Team Six shit.

That was great. Caused absolute Chaos at that base. Great Shooting Drewski. Arma Reforger looks pretty fun but unstable, every Stream I've seen and many videos of it crashing. Looks worth it thought at the same time.
@@killdizzle it literally just came out. They never said this game was gonna be a awesome experience off the rip. You know what you’re buying into. But hopefully it doesn’t go that way and they struggle to fix things in a reasonable amount of time.
That is the style of game I like to play. Running around alone behind enemy lines in the dark, confusing the hell out of them. Also the local VOIP chatting with the guy you were about to kill was hilarious.
I like the idea of tank hunters or communication disruption being able to do raids on radio stations or finding out where the enemy have motor pools so you can ambush logi as it goes between bases . When they get planes and airports in imagin doing a night assult to blow up plane refueling stations or damage the runway so they lose air assets .
God flares are gonna be so fucking useful in this engine man. They gotta get implemented to make night defence more interesting, especially now that light sources matter.
Never know what you like until you try it gamer! Once you play a few times you’ll see that’s it’s not as complicated as it seems and it’s totally worth the learning curve!
One you start playing, it won't be that complex. And this game makes everything simpler. I highly recommend you get into this series, Arma has given me countless hours of endless fun, although you might want to wait until this game, reforger, gets more stable. Tl;Dr : yes.
honestly the coolest part abt this game so far is that you can take enemy radios and talk to them through it potentially getting locations and information
Woah. Love videos like this. Took up the recommendation to watch it at night with lights out and it was awesome. Hope to see more of this kind of gameplay.
17:30 Hearing the guys voice saying “hoser her down” or “hold it down” made me immediately think of Captain America in GK. “He’s got his fucking bayonet out”
I loved you constantly harassing the base at night, that must’ve been hella fun and also kinda spooky for the enemy considering the forest is pitch black and someone’s in it shooting at them
Bro, this looks so sick! Can't wait for Arma 4. Its gonna be best mil-sim shooter ever made, just like Arma always was. Honestly I've played Arma 3 for 6 years, and I quit it because of old engine and too many DLC-s. I hope they don't mess up Arma 4 with DLC-s...
I wanted to get into Arma 3 a while back but I was instantly disheartened because the whole package would have overshot my budget. I hope to buy Arma 4 one day and get that complete next-gen milsim experience.
I mean, Arma stealth feels more realistic and fun CoD stealth relies on holding funky positions these days. Tbh I'm just happy I can now fire from the edge of a woods without being spotted instantly
The scope may be old and busted in real life, but in Arma, where the built-in range finder is always perfectly accurate to the character models, it's pretty handy.
All I can really say is I hope they do away with the silly death animations, ever since they changed them in dayz it’s bugged me, seeing a guy fling his arms and fly onto his back is annoying, killing a guy and watching them drop is much cooler
Agreed or at the least they could create a few animations depending on where you shoot someone or even some blood and gore depending on where ya shoot em and what caliber
i really missed these barebones style FPS games. No flash-suppression, no NVGs, ghillie suits and all that "hightech" stuff. Just handheld lamps and iron sights. And as you said the engine really makes these midrange night engagements look and feel amazing !
My favorite moment in the game is when me and 3 of my friends took over an American base filled with enemies. It took us about 15 minutes and at one point we were holed up in a lumber storage room. We died a few times but we all had radios because we spawned at a little outpost we had taken previously. We felt like special forces after defeating them all.
Those panama hats was in use in the Soviet Army since 1930s. You can find many photos from Khalkin Gol battle. BTW, they are mostly famous for Afgan war in 80s
I impulsively bought this yesterday. I heard terrible things about after I did. But you are making me want to play it really badly when I get off work 😂
If you were 35 years old playing Halo Combat Evolved in 2001 then you'd be 57 years old TODAY still playing games. People in their 60's and 70's and 90's will be playing videos juegos in the future. That's pretty neat. I'm running outta steam though at barely 30 unfortunately. I get comparable enjoyment watching this dude running around playing entertainingly as I do if I were to play myself
Fun fact about the PSO style scopes as well... The optics arent designed to be centered over the bore. Most likely because they were developed during an age where it was beneficial for the use of stripper clips. Because of this in order to make the most accurate shot at distance, the shooter needs to make both elevation AND windage adjustments.
Love those wet weather effects! I hope wipers work on vehicles it want to see that rain pelting down and being cleared off the windscreen. Pity the video was so dark - I will watch the rest tonight.

@@killdizzle it literally just came out. They never said this game was gonna be a awesome experience off the rip. You know what you’re buying into. But hopefully it doesn’t go that way and they struggle to fix things in a reasonable amount of time.
I cant wait for the servers to work. I can't wait to start playing this game. IMHO it looks and plays better than squad
25:00 that was diabolical bro! "yo, where do you see them" said by an enemy. haha
Drewski getting suppressed: Woo
Subtitles translating incoming fire: Applause
3:01
"Thats gotta be the greatest pirate I've ever seen..."
That is the style of game I like to play. Running around alone behind enemy lines in the dark, confusing the hell out of them.
Also the local VOIP chatting with the guy you were about to kill was hilarious.
Imagine running a small sneak attack squad to go and create mayhem on
I like the idea of tank hunters or communication disruption being able to do raids on radio stations or finding out where the enemy have motor pools so you can ambush logi as it goes between bases . When they get planes and airports in imagin doing a night assult to blow up plane refueling stations or damage the runway so they lose air assets .
2:16 omg I love this moment...!!! you can even hear enemies ' s voice
"...you just got the cutest mole on the back of your..." XD
As a ArmA3 marksman / sniper this got me excited.
0:45 Nice Halo reference my boi, got to be my favourite Halo track of all time...
I want an Arma game combined with the spintires driving experience so badly.
3:01 : Oh hey! It's Ron and Harry ! Did they moved back in time ?
You; is he right behind you
Bad guy; no they are in front
Me 😂😂
3:02
It’s really cool to see that arma devs took inspiration from the realism of BF2042
bro imagine if you had like a dcs integration into arma 4 how sick that would be flying dcs jets with arma ground infantry
I'm sure Arma 4 will have jets. All previous main Arma games had them so it's inevitable for Arma 4.
@@treeinafield5022 i know they will have jets im talking bout dcs level of realism jets. Arma 3 jets are kinda dissapointing tbh
God flares are gonna be so fucking useful in this engine man. They gotta get implemented to make night defence more interesting, especially now that light sources matter.
Would you guys suggest me to pick this up as someone who's never played arma or milsim games? Always been scared of how complicated they look
I don't think the game's worth 30 bucks rn, I think you should wait a little bit and once more content is added you should give it a try
I'd wait for more updates to come out or even for full ARMA 4 release.
Pick up Arma three on the cheap
Never know what you like until you try it gamer! Once you play a few times you’ll see that’s it’s not as complicated as it seems and it’s totally worth the learning curve!
One you start playing, it won't be that complex. And this game makes everything simpler.
I highly recommend you get into this series, Arma has given me countless hours of endless fun, although you might want to wait until this game, reforger, gets more stable.
Tl;Dr : yes.
honestly the coolest part abt this game so far is that you can take enemy radios and talk to them through it potentially getting locations and information
This video convinced me to buy it. This reminds me so much of the old DayZ days
Woah. Love videos like this. Took up the recommendation to watch it at night with lights out and it was awesome. Hope to see more of this kind of gameplay.
they go and scan, don't find anyone. "Must of been the wind"
17:30 Hearing the guys voice saying “hoser her down” or “hold it down” made me immediately think of Captain America in GK. “He’s got his fucking bayonet out”
ooh this looks lovely! i heard pretty bad things about this game but i've gotta try it myself before judging
I loved you constantly harassing the base at night, that must’ve been hella fun and also kinda spooky for the enemy considering the forest is pitch black and someone’s in it shooting at them
Pso scopes were used sometimes on ak's like acog's cause oldest of pso's were x4 but newer were longer like 6 8 or 10 probably
This is what snipers lived for.
Game looks fun wish i had a PC.
Bro, this looks so sick! Can't wait for Arma 4. Its gonna be best mil-sim shooter ever made, just like Arma always was. Honestly I've played Arma 3 for 6 years, and I quit it because of old engine and too many DLC-s. I hope they don't mess up Arma 4 with DLC-s...
I wanted to get into Arma 3 a while back but I was instantly disheartened because the whole package would have overshot my budget. I hope to buy Arma 4 one day and get that complete next-gen milsim experience.
@@miscellaneoussounds8197 At this point its not worth getting arma 3 anymore...
@@ChrisFromTH-cam yeah, a part of me wants to get Reforger after watching this but will probably save for Arma 4
@@miscellaneoussounds8197 Its not worth it, too little content and not polished game
@@miscellaneoussounds8197 save for arma 4? Brother we don't even know if arma 4 will be a thing, for all we know it could come out in 2040
3:07 "That's gotta be the best pirate i've ever seen."
"So it may seem"
This video shows how promising Arma 4 is looking to be, you can actually reasonably pull off CoD style stealth
I mean, Arma stealth feels more realistic and fun CoD stealth relies on holding funky positions these days. Tbh I'm just happy I can now fire from the edge of a woods without being spotted instantly
stealth in cod? with all the shiny skins and rainbow tracers? please dont compare arcade circus games with milsim ones.
@@FalconDS9 i think he meant old cod, especially cod4mw where you have to slowly go pass enemy patrols
Drew taking out a compass to figure out where the sun was at sunrise was just the funniest shit to me for no reason.
3:00 Gotta be the best part of this entire video, no cap. His laugher only makes it better
The hat makes you look like the yellow man from curious George
As a FO I’d really like to see actual indirect fires and adjustments for them like they did with vbs 4
This is just so epic it's like DayZ but military edition
Bro.. DayZ was originally a mod for ArmA 2 lmfao
It's by the same devs, DayZ is on the same engine as the old arma games.
Yall i know this, im just saying its basically dayz but military lol
@@tribal6597 so like arma, wich is literally DayZ but military
@@daanoffline5716 ye lol so its militarised dayz
The scope may be old and busted in real life, but in Arma, where the built-in range finder is always perfectly accurate to the character models, it's pretty handy.
All I can really say is I hope they do away with the silly death animations, ever since they changed them in dayz it’s bugged me, seeing a guy fling his arms and fly onto his back is annoying, killing a guy and watching them drop is much cooler
Agreed or at the least they could create a few animations depending on where you shoot someone or even some blood and gore depending on where ya shoot em and what caliber
@@darthvader239 yeah gore would be great, imagine blowing limbs off because you’ve placed a land mine or something
@@darthvader239 old days activision did it with black ops so why can't they?
that collateral was sick! 9:17
this proves how deadly a sniper can be, much love.
In case you didn’t know, on the SVD and on some American weapons as well you can toggle between the scope equipped and the iron sights
How do you do that?
I love going behind enemy lines in this game! It is a tense, fun and hilarious time, especially at night with all the lights off!
i really missed these barebones style FPS games. No flash-suppression, no NVGs, ghillie suits and all that "hightech" stuff. Just handheld lamps and iron sights. And as you said the engine really makes these midrange night engagements look and feel amazing !
MAN.. I love this game!!! I really love how you can stay in the dark side and just shooting the enemies, this is like a dream!!
Those sniper vids are always so cool to watch!! The sneaky yoinker snpiper ahahah
I love your pronouciation of Lacroix, it made me laugh so hard.
2:15 "Trech, you just have the cutest mole on the back of your...." [flirtation fades off into the distance]
My favorite moment in the game is when me and 3 of my friends took over an American base filled with enemies. It took us about 15 minutes and at one point we were holed up in a lumber storage room. We died a few times but we all had radios because we spawned at a little outpost we had taken previously. We felt like special forces after defeating them all.
Those panama hats was in use in the Soviet Army since 1930s. You can find many photos from Khalkin Gol battle. BTW, they are mostly famous for Afgan war in 80s
3:03 Harry and Ron heading to the Forbidden Forest
Oh man, this is what I've been waiting for. Arma 3 is already a great game, and this teaser is outstanding.
I love it.
I impulsively bought this yesterday. I heard terrible things about after I did. But you are making me want to play it really badly when I get off work 😂
Same tbh. Just hoping they fix the server issues.
If you are a big Arma fan you will probably enjoy it
3:10 hey man dont worry bout that too much harry and ron just missed the train
please more of this, this shit was so much fun to watch!
We reached peak milsim when the truck of Americans drove past and you could hear them in VOIP
If you were 35 years old playing Halo Combat Evolved in 2001 then you'd be 57 years old TODAY still playing games. People in their 60's and 70's and 90's will be playing videos juegos in the future. That's pretty neat. I'm running outta steam though at barely 30 unfortunately. I get comparable enjoyment watching this dude running around playing entertainingly as I do if I were to play myself
I love how you went monke mode after you saw the flying car! That was great
Fun fact about the PSO style scopes as well...
The optics arent designed to be centered over the bore. Most likely because they were developed during an age where it was beneficial for the use of stripper clips. Because of this in order to make the most accurate shot at distance, the shooter needs to make both elevation AND windage adjustments.
Love those wet weather effects! I hope wipers work on vehicles it want to see that rain pelting down and being cleared off the windscreen.
Pity the video was so dark - I will watch the rest tonight.
