King of the hill is a king of the hill match.
I'm scared of dying and getting switched to BLUFOR xD
Stackfor ftw
dw, I get autoswitched without dying
BoxOfNothing what's wrong with blufor
Always a granted loss when team balance kicks you to blufor.
Cheleah27 everything is wrong with blufor.
Due to Arma's problem with latency, it's too easy for me to clear towers, all I need is an AKM and stamina and it's easy.
I love it when you are riding in a full Huron and the pilot tries to land it in the middle of the city, and of course the next thing you know, a rocket flies through the cabin killing everyone.
Rule #1: Play on a Hardcore server. No one likes it when people third-person-peeks you from towers or other places.
Rule #2: Help your team and have fun!
That's it.
I personally like the no towers server since it has a lot less people camping in rooms and stuff
Gam3Junkie it's ok to have fun every once and a while and play a third person server. It won't kill your chances of being in the military or what ever other reason people think the game has to be an exact simulation.
thats not can be true. i so often bleed-out and nobody came to revive.
AND,.. if i try to revive, i lay down often next to him. (with smoke and without) 乁( ⁰͡ Ĺ̯ ⁰͡ )ㄏ
All Day a lil shit happens
@@KrijoStalka19 wtf u on about dude
@@lullebulle2 sometime it works better.
perhaps like in my last Video. i slowly get better ;-) But the Teamplay can be a bit better all day. most problem is all speak english and i do not understand very fast whats happen.
One time I got team balanced to blufor.
Then later in the same game got team balanced to indfor.
Then I was stuck in a limbo of not being able to join any team because I was balanced to both.
Rip
I hate team balance, it should lock you from joining stacked teams in the lobby, not kick you mid game...... Its annoying if you are on the winning team and it gets stacked because people join it when they first join the lobby yet youve been there all game and you lose the massive victory bonus you would get.
@combatsmithen
If you get teambalanced mid game you still get your full game bonus as the game gives you the lost bonus right when you get auto balanced.
RoidRageC4G No. No no no. You get the bonus you would get as if you won the game when you got switched, but it still is less than your bonus would be if you were on the winning team to the very end of the game because between the time you are kicked and the time you would win the game, you would get more money and XP which would multiply to your win bonus
Yeah Thats what I mean. You get the full bonus as if you would have won at that point. After you still get a certain losing bonus when you play on the loosing team so the difference is really not all that high. Maybe 1-2K XP and Money. However we are working on new ways to balance the teams that should avoid this.
RoidRageC4G ah. so you are part of the dev team? Cool!
Can I make a suggestion?
Have a Light Vehicle server, I.E. No tracked vehicles, jets, or heavy attack helicopters. The only Armed air vehicles being the ghosthawk, orca, pawnee, and hellcat.
Or. Have a ground war server in which its only ground vehicles
My 4th person isn't working, how do i fix it?
go to 1st person and try to look into the camera :)

I've unlocked many weapons, including all the full LMGs, and I'm pretty sure the MXSW is my favorite for all the reasons mentioned. It's light, it's accurate with low recoil, high magazine capacity, and has quick reloads. It's lower damage than other weapons, sure, but it's versatility more than makes up for that. Throw an A/RCO optic and you're set for close or medium-long range engagements. With a bipod you can hold down a huge corridor and take out whole squads. 9.5/10 weapon.
I bought a sniper rifle on my first day playing KOTH, by day 3 I was lvl 30 and had all perks unlocked with almost 200k. So please snipe if you want, play the game how you want.
Montgomery Bojangles Sniping barely helps the team tho
@@tinycockjock1967 I plus this. If you snipe, you are only throwing your team further from winning and potentially sacrificing the entire game so you can get some extra kills and XP.
@@patrickbateman9166 it's a game for fun not for winning not that serious
@@Xackory it's a co-operative MILSIM operation what fucking part of it isn't meant to be taken seriously? If you wanna run around and shoot people go play COD not Arma 3
@@patrickbateman9166 it's still a game. Anyone can do anything cause no one's keeping tabs. Fk off with that "ouhh but it's a milsim tho therefore we need to play seriously with military tactics 24/7"
I love your video dude, I never miss one. I have you on notifications bro. I'm a big fan
3rd person. this is why i play on servers where your locked to 1st person
it may not be realistic, but it was implemented into the game for a reason
@@crimhammerlock8963 what's the reason
@@cate01a that is a year old fucking comment what the hell are you doing here
@@crimhammerlock8963 answer the question jimbo
@@crimhammerlock8963 Yes, it's for kids who want to "game" instead of really fighting.
Much appreciated drewski :) thanks for listening to the suggestion. I hope this helped out others.
A few snipers is useful if they know what they're doing. The ability to hit a target at over 1200m is a must. Situational awareness, willingness to designate, calling out groups of enemies, etc. Not ridgelining like every sniper in the game mode is a must. It also helps if it's a coordinated sniper team who has hundreds of ingame hours together. And the ability to shoot down a helo on occasion doesn't hurt.
Third person is why I play HC servers. You dont get to spot me without looking at me.
Also hip fire is negated since you dont have a crosshair.
technically untrue, i don't need a crosshair to hip fire with decent accuracy.. in fact I unintentionally fire from the hip all the time when people sneak up on me, because its first person in HC servers its easier to fire without aiming, put the target in the center of the screen and unload your weapon lol. works well out to about 50m (depending on the gun).
Not really...You cant hip fire with the same accuracy on HC servers. If you are unintentionally firing then it was not your prefered way to fire. So you would prefer aiming. So any advantage gained on NON HC servers is lost on HC servers. Drewski quite clearly is using it as hit primary aim when moving.
the accuracy doesn't change with different servers mate, you point the gun, fire.. see where the bullets impact and adjust fire accordingly. doesn't matter whether it's hardcore or regular.. or even invade & annex, hip fire has the same fuckin accuracy any where you go lol.. just because you don't have a crosshair doesn't mean your gun has less accuracy.. it's not rocket science or anything point click adjust.. fire in bursts instead of full auto for better accuracy.. im only talking upto 50m max.. beyond 50m i'll use ironsights or optics, whichever I have available.. but out to 50m you're perfectly safe to hip fire, especially in tight situations house to house or room to room engagements. if you've played arma longer than 14 years, sure I'll shutup and take you're advice as you have more experience than i do; if not.. vice versa..
Im aware mate....But its that last part thats gonna get you killed. If you start shooting while not aiming you have to adjust. That may very well be the difference between winning and loosing a fire fight.
And my point remains the same. No more spotting from total cover and no hard aiming reticle. Makes HC servers so much more fun.
yeah my bad i thought you were saying it wasn't viable at all, ADS will always be better than hip because well, you're aiming lol..
Perfect timing! I started playing KotH this week after watching one of your vids.
In Arma 4, I want to walk inside the vehicles, especially AC130, I want the vehicle doors are openable, I want supperior Artificial Inteligence, I want the parachutin from an AC130 more realistic, e.g., static line jump, walk inside the AC 130 before jumping.
I want the character able to jump.
I want it smooth but still complex.
all of that stuff is in arma 3
Hey, I’m from the future, and Arma 4 still isn’t a thing
Jump?
I want to see you jump with 50lbs+ of gear and shit

Dude the C trick has helped me in so many engagements i cannot believe how usefull it is. Thanks for the vid!
Thanks man! I just started playing KOTH and those tips are helpful
OperatorDrewski, love your videos keep up the good work!
Great guide. Couple of points. Every 40s the team with the most people in the zone will get 1 victory point. People who are in the towers count double for this. So the towers provide more than just the ability to over watch the surrounding areas.
If you want to win, you want to clear enemies from towers and/or camp them your self.
If you are camping a tower (or any other building really), you need to be super aware of clipping parts of your body/weapon thru the wall/floor. Usually you can tell if a tower is occupied or not, just from observing people clipping/desyncing, the classic being sticking the barrel of their weapon thru the wall, shortly before rising up to shoot thru a window. Knowing where enemies are is 90% of being able to kill them.
If you are in a tower, and you are resting your weapon on window sills/barriers. You are asking to die. If you are going to shoot from a tower, do it whilst standing further back inside the room, and do not stay exposed for more than one shot as you will be easily visible to people all over the map.
Personally I find close quarters combat more challenging on KOTH than any other mode. As you've mentioned FPS is generally poor, and I often get massive FPS lags when shit goes down. I'll pop around a corner, so will an enemy, your basic 50/50 who will shoot and hit first. I lose those a lot, as my game will hang in those fractions of a second between seeing them and aiming at them. Then I die.
I do not suffer from this in most other game modes, and makes KOTH incredibly frustrating, and forcing me into a longer range role that is scared of close contact with anyone.
was just browsing through your videos, run out, and then i see this in my sub box. 32 minutes. Awww heaaalll yiiiisssss boiiiiii
This is exactly what I was looking for
Holy crap drewski your channel is thriving a lot
WOW thats actually really informative, thnx man :)
A good sniper team can control the game especially on infantry only mode. If allowed to set up and the other team does not a have a counter sniper. That sniper can control anyone trying to get in those towers(such easy targets). Also don't forget you are very exposed rushing those stairs. Most vets will have a kill zone set up on a towers base or open area from a good defendable position 100-200 meters away. LMG set ups are best for defending those areas. good 3rd person tips drewski!
"You're life does not matter..."
Me_irl
I can tell that this channel has a lot of potential
I love your arma vids and your tips really helped me
I love these videos, aswell as this channel ❤️❤️😍😍
Thank you for this!
You can switch your rifle to your left shoulder by pressing Left Control + A and back to your right shoulder with Left Control + D
Asome video good Job keep it up
If you could go 3rd person irl would you?
No
Hell yeah
Yes
Is less realistic and makes everything more easy even for new ones
Nah, it would be disorienting
The CAR 95-1 is a good choice for a starter gun as well, it sports better armor penetration than both 6.5 and 5.56 with lower recoil as well. IIRC it costs the same as an MX SW. $40,000. It's an Apex weapon, though. You'll probably get $40,000 before level 10, which is when you unlock the Katiba, which is the first non-perk required weapon you unlock that's worth a damn.
Love your videos man!! i enjoy watching you play! i would love to play arma with ya but it prob wont happen hahaha
I find the best way to clear the towers is to nonstop rush, dont peek corners, dont take your time. Full blitzkrieg is the way cause no one ever suspects it and its usually easy to hear people coming up the tower and if they take their time u can prepare. If u rush they might be busy fighting someone on the ground and may not notice and ull catch them off gaurd or youll just have the advantage in ARMAs laggy system and usually youll see them and kill them before they can react
Vet ranch brought me here .... not even mad >.< Love your videos
Switch the gun to the left shoulder and go through the left door sometimes. Never construct a pattern the enemy can adjust to.
You can crouch walk/run up stairs. You need to walk sideways up them. As in by pressing A or D. Thats the fastest way to get up those stairs. Also you should have talked about how load outs work, and how its better to save up and perma buy and not just buy for one round.
I know this is a disadvantage but I use 1st person for that juicy hardcore bonus. Great vid overall though!
Zafir 7.62 machinegun with RCO scope + RPG is imo the best loadout you can get for close - medium ranged infantry combat.
Good info didn't have problems with stairs though but prolly an old glitch
Nice Video
it's funny because i've been playing KOTH for a few days non-stop. i'm addicted to it i think. drewski do you wanna play KOTH togethere some time?
almost at 50k drewski :D
Do a video playing KOTH! Not tutorial, but GAMEPLAY.
+M40101 check the past 3 videos, potato
I hate your fking avatar
OperatorDrewski The last 3 are not GAMEPLAY ITSELF, is always to show some crap gun or to teach something, i'm talking about KOTH gameplay pure, not some randon cut scenes of koth like you did in the last 3 videos.
+M40101 god damn watch your attitude kid it's his choice like
Yes a full match please! :D
When you first start out, do you use the trg until you can permanently unlock the mx-sw or ak-12, or do you buy them each life until you can perm unlock? I keep using the trg until I can loot something better while saving to perm unlock what I want as my first step up.
Almost 50k subs!!!
7 year old video and I learned new things after playing for a few months, thanks
For the clothing, with the new KOTH change, the different clothing has different speed. So lower armor, more speed, more armor, less speed.
play the graphics settings you are able to. view distance is incredibly important in arma.
Towers are the bane of KOTH matches, all it turns into is which team can camp the tower the hardest. Best servers are HC No Towers, forces 1st person only and no towers to camp.
if a sniper is getting 50 kills a game and calling out enemy positions he is helping his team alot
i wish we can earn some ponts too for Laser enemys Tanks and infantry
you can switch shoulders by tapping ctrl+a and ctrl+d
49959 subs! almost 50k, deserved!
Over a mil now
guys,now you get a sniper reward, anything over 600 meters you get a bonus for 350 upwards, I think 1000xp for 1000 meter shots and upwards, so you can sit about 2k out and if you get about 5 kills its the equivalent of being in the zone for half of the match or a lot more, once you get about 5 2k shots, get up go back tot he base and head intot he zone with an assault rifle for 10/15 mins and you'll get that big bonus if your team wins.
Thanks!
The Problem at the third-Person view isnt that is "unrealistic" the problem is that everyone can look threw walls and shoot also threw walls also if the model is behind that wall...
that why people play hardcore it's so much more fun
It's not a problem, it's what people want, unfortunately. 1st person is hard to manage, you don't see shit at times, but everybody suffers from this. Teamwork more important there. Also, more tension. I like it much more.
First Person is just much more fun, the heartbeat kills me sometimes, when I facecheck corners :D
3rd person is full off people hanging in towers looking down in 3rd person! first person means you see the enemy he sees you. its all about how you "skill" shoot him down
best things to do
step 1 get qatiba and an rco then rpg almut
step 2 cyrus
step 3 get a long rang scope
best tip- play hc (hardcore) Infantry servers
So I'm just gonna throw the first burning torch: Towers aren't really that important. In fact the moment you walk into one, I'll probably be nearby - possibly somewhere near the most used path to it - and shoot you before you even get there so you'll have to start all over again. :) And the moment people find a tower that's occupied, they flush it. I seriously cash in A LOT on people camping the towers, and I love it when they do. The only good thing about it is that it's usually crowded so people don't have to respawn that much, but eventually they do. What's WAY more important is learning these three basic things: tactical awareness and good use of cover and concealment. For the latter it's very important to learn the additional stances. That way armor won't be as important either. I love using fully automatic weapons, but using silenced medium snipers *in the zone* is also extremely effective. It's also fun to use smaller weapons just for the challenge sometimes. Also third person is totally OP. Real men play first person only. ;)
but, theres no reason to use 1st person only on a 3rd person server
Alex B That's why you go to first person servers, like real men do.
+kebman first person servers ftw
They Drew, I just got Arma 3 and really wanna try and get into it. I don't know If you would be alright playing with a viewer but I just wanna learn from someone who is experienced.
m8 he has 1 million subs he aint gonna help no one. He helps us by vids play the game and ull get it :)
speaking of ghillie suits. Back when there was this great paintball field at Hurlburt field in florida, I was playing with some friends on one of the hottest days of the year. This kid decided he wanted to take his ghillie suit out and play in it. kind of a larger kid and was pounding back mountain dew. now keep in mind its like 98 degrees and 100% humidity. We get done playing a couple of games and I see a group of people struggling to drag this kid out of the forest. he straight up passed out.
27:48 have fun dying to Navids if you dont throw the nade
Cant wait for him to do a squad v7 video since it came out today
I take LRR or Lynx with me into CQB and it works pretty well for me ^^
If you are aware of your surroundings, you'd remember that, that part of the door wasnt open, i play mainly in FP, but use TP too as anyone else would be, looking over walls and so on, but personally, i prefere FP over TP.
I played on a server for over 20 hours, before realizing - the area of the objective where enemy player enter, has the most enemy players...
More gameplay plz!
When running up the 3rd set of stairs on the towers, I pull my mouse to the right slightly to bypass that glitch.
Edit a clip and you'll be considered a pro, anyways, here is a tip for all new players in KOTH, try to reach lvl 12 and buy the: .338 SPMG, also keep shadows in high because if you have it disabled, low or standard your CPU will overload and you suddenly will get FPS drops while fireing.
I thought it gave me more frames keeping it low
im new to this game so i might have no clue but, i did the typical newbee thing and got the high powered sniper.. i not earning much points being outside the zone but can guarantee i get more kills from the towers then those at closr range. how can you say that option doesnt help ?
can you make a video on the Type 115? Its a pretty interesting weapon!
If you press ctrl + a you switch the gun to the other arm, so you can clear from the right
Hey OperatorDrewski, can you make a video telling people that paradropping is not always the best way to get to the AO?
Huesudo Yea paradropping isnt good most the time since there is usually people with MGs and LMGs in the AO
Are you playing on public servers? If so which ones... Can't find squad mates with mics and that work together.
Fastest way to get a really good rifle is to use the machine gunner perk and get the MX SW :)
You dont need to press the c button anymore since Apex. They changed the default to "left-click enables comabt mode for 3 secs"
the dead zone is not as extreme as you are saying.. you can sit wtf the entrance of the stairs and angle yourself to see on the ground
I have Arma 3 it always lags cause I play on an Acer aspire e-15 but it's still my favourite game ha ha. Ps I love your vids drewskie
Most decent servers will ban third person, there is an option in the settings. Servers that do not are trash.
it would be cool if u made a video showing how to be a good pilot for helicopters and jets in koth cause i'm not the best pilot :)
Do you have a group you play with? I'm looking to start grouping up with a few players that are good.
The reason why towers are such powerhouses isn't because of being able to snipe people from high ground. It's because the towers are not destructible, and bullets can't penetrate the material used in towers, and the towers only have two points of enterance. The stairwells below them or the roof. All you need to do to guard the stairs is hide near a door and shoot them as they come up. If they throw a grenade, you run back through the door and wait for the grenade to go off, then you return to the stairwell area and continue. For the roof, all you have to do is shoot them as they parachute onto it. If the enemy tries to land on it, since the little bird is the only one that can safely land on the roof, all you have to do is shoot the exposed pilot through the gigantic glass panes which are almost impossible to miss, and then the whole thing will either have a hard landing on the roof and likely injure most of the occupants onboard, or crash into the side of the tower. (Since the occupants do sometimes survive the heli crashes, all you have to do is camp the bottom stairwell. Boom, you have invincible fortresses that can't be damaged and are hard to defeat.
I'm not an arma player, but looking at a beginner's guide for one game mode be 30 min long is really intimidating.
Also once you reach a higher level you get a enhanced combat helmet for bluefor
The best way to take on the tower stairs is to run up them sideways. For some reason it won't glitch then :)
How do you know matt from demolition ranch, vet ranch and off the ranch because i saw you helped him out on one of his videos building something
Last time I was this early,
I made an overused early joke
I don't even play Arma. But I'm gonna watch this anyway.
Thaank u
hold ctrl and press A to switch your firearm to your left shoulder
same i wanna say
Going sideways the first two steps in each staircase always works. For me atleast. NO matter if you're crouched or not.
i am a big wasteland player and the ghillie is the best clothing for combat but i still wear a vest i have killed tons of people using a ghillie suit hiding in bush its a cheap way to kill somone but its works but one thing you have to remember never lay in open grass at long ranges there is no grass so be in or behind a bush or maybe a rock but they will definetly see your bush like head behind a rock and if you are with in a bush and there are enemies near by lower your gun so they dont see it stickin out then shoot them in the back
my fav KotH server has 3rd person disabled. much more fun once you get used to it.
Can you please tell that server ip
Literally never knew third person was in Arma till recently and I have hundreds of hours. Now that I know I still don’t use it mostly because it ruins any immersion or realism but also I don’t know how anyone can play like that.
I WISH I could run that fps!
Drew, Will you be playing Escape From Tarkov?
ctrl+c allows you to always have your gun out while walking
DoubleStacked Tower is also magnets for bullets especially sniper bullets
and Tigris/wipeout too
step 1: join opfor
step 2: rake in the winnings lol
