PTSD is fake and only exists to scam the American people. Most folks who get out of the military are broke as fuck and need to get an extra stream of revenue. So they lie about this condition and get free money.

Most who claim to have PTSD have never engaged in combat. PTSD is a scam.

I was an infantry Marine 2004-2007 and spent all of '07 in a Navy hospital recovering from a wound. This dude speaks the truth. I'm not going to go so far as saying PTSD is fake, but the vast majority of veterans from the war on terror are faking it, sometimes without even knowing they're faking it. It's like they're told by all the docs and civilian psych analysts that they have it and so they start to believe it and manifest the symptoms. Regardless, the HUGE majority of vets from the war on terror have never seen combat and just want to look cool in front of civilians, and everyone says they have PTSD and hearing loss so they can get them VA bux

The problem today is that the term PTSD is given out like candy. The slightest inconvenience and you can claim that you drink heavily because of it. I've been a paramedic in a really shitty area for 5 years now, I've had my bad calls, and my shitty days, but you get on with it. I know I've seen more then the average "soldier" so when a guy that was in the army says he's suffering from PTSD because he heard a friendly shell go off MILES away to a village while he was repairing a humvee in his HQ surrounded by friendlies and walls, I get a little triggered.

>>320834445
I've known a handful of Vietnam vets and you know, there's a reason they don't talk about the war, anon.

But, they never say they have PTSD, they just try and never bring it up, which I'm fairly certain is due to some sort of PTSD-related issue.

One of my best friends served. I've gleaned over the years what branch he might have been in and that he killed someone, but only through glimpses. I try to avoid it, but sometimes he brings it up and I'll ask a question and then he quickly diverts to a totally different subject.

I used to work in special education at a school for behavioral problems in a program for non-verbal autistic high schoolers. I have also seen things and done things that are so horrifying, I can't even describe them. I've been in situations where I could have lost limb or life.

I bring this up because it's traumatic, and while I believe in PTSD and I'm a severe sperglord, I still managed to overcome my stupid anxiety and social awkwardness and unction. Also, because you said triggered and I really hate how tumblrettes use the word triggered.

You know, usually when these kids are triggered by something, there's some build up and it's visible. Sometimes not, but usually.

I'd take to the other staff in my room, we'd bring in a kid and he may look to be in his usual state to everyone else, but we knew. We'd whisper "He's on edge, watch out" and sure enough, that kid would blow the fuck out before the end of the day.

All of the students who went to our school went there because of behavioral problems. Districts in the region would send us their worst. Our job was to reduce problem behaviors so they could go back to a regular school.

The non-verbal program was one of four programs in the school. Most of the kids who went there had other issues like bipolar disorder, defiance problems, etc.

My classroom had highly violent, non-verbal kids with autism who were in high school. So,basically adult-sized boys with the temperament of a toddler in the terrible 2's stage. Most of them had grown so large, their parents, already tired after years and years of dealing with it and letting behaviors slide, that they were not controllable by most people.

Our job was to fix that. And we did. But it meant that we got hurt often. We were trained to put students in holds. You ever tell an angry kid no when they have set their mind on wanting to tear up carpet tiles?

Yeah, one time one of our staff members got bit so hard, he had to have reconstructive surgery to repair the tendons in his wrist. That was before my time, though.

Why the fuck would you take a rocket and deny yourself a full belt of nades. The only advantage it has is area of effect which isn't worth only carrying one and firing range which is rivalled by the grenade launcher which has more rounds anyway.

The only bullshit meme is the idea that all the WW2 vets went home, got over it and went on to open businesses and become productive members of society and that Vietnam and Iraq/Afghanistan vets just don't know how good they have it.

There were plenty of combat vets who sank into alcoholism and mental illness. There were plenty that killed themselves. It just wasn't acceptable to talk about that. If you talk to the spouses and children of WW2 vets, especially after they pass away, they'll tell you that they were different after the war, that they were cold and guarded. Modern vets may feel more alienated since there was such a homefront effort in WW2, but PTSD still existed.

There were records of wounded veterans without visible wounds in the Thirty Years War. Even the ancient Greeks talked about war weariness.

You know soldiers who fought in Iwo Jima, Guatacanal, or really any other major battle in the pacific were shelled for days on end right? The fighting on Iwo specifically lasted for a very long time, often not stopping for night. Soldiers who put up camps were often attacked by Banzai charges in the middle of the night. Soldiers who even tried to move through the thick jungle would fall prey to charges and booby traps.
Shit like this happened in Korea too, as well as Nam.
I really don't think the trend of using PTSD for gain started much until the 90's/modern combat era.

What do you think modern warfare is?

Trench warfare was intense because there was the constant threat of death from an unseen source.

Modern warfare is going out on constant patrols and getting blown up by ieds, and having to scans crowds of civilians 24/7 in case one has a suicide vest or an RPG.

The reason why PTSD develops is not related to whether or not something traumatic happens, but being in the constant threat of death. All what PTSD is the body going haywire since it is on fight-or-flight mode constantly and is analyzing every single bit of information it receives because of that.

You're also overestimating the benefits you get for disability. They have a sliding scale, and in most cases, you get something like 43 bucks a month that they can severe at any time once they feel you no longer need it.
>>
>>320838249
It's an intensely personal experience, since everyone's stress response is different. Usually it involves anxiety and hyper-vigilance in situations that remind them of the trauma, flashbacks (intense detailed memories and recollections), constant ruminations about the trauma even years later and feelings of guilt about what could have been done differently, or why they survived when others hadn't.

PTSD isn't just military related, I got PTSD from child-abuse.

Its basically a mixture of being exhaused and fearful all the time.

The thing is, triggers don't cause PTSD to flare up, PTSD is a constant process. A trigger is just the body being so tense and vigilant that the smallest thing that is a threat is treated like an imminent death and the body switches into pure survival mode.
>>
>>320839187

To me, a trigger is just something that triggers a memory of the trauma, and makes me feel shitty.

I sympathize with people that try to avoid triggering people with legitimate PTSD, but in reality there's no way to do that. Just writing trigger warning is enough to make people think "oh right something fucked up happened to me, time to relive it"

As I go on I'm becoming increasingly bitter with anything vets complain about.

All soldiers in any branch are essentially socialist cry babies who agreed to ommit mass murder for welfare on steroids and our society panders to them. They should have shitty equipment, they should be abandoned after service, they should fucking die in service so we don't have to bear the burden of them afterwards. Literally the end of your term should e a bullet in the back of your head as you walk out the door in civvies. They're scum, the politicians who send them to war are scum, the people who vote for politicians are scum. All complacent in glorified state sanctioned mass murder that's accomplished nothing for 14 years running.

That is one major difference between the perception of the military in the US versus other Western countries. In most countries the military is a career option or something you have to do. (where conscription still exists) In the US, military service is seen as some grand calling and military personnel are supposed to be seen as heroes and deserve special treatment. Walk around in a military uniform and people will thank you for your service, regale you with stories of how their uncle or grandfather did such and such and buy you drinks and meals.

It's good for the military because if you question its actions you're not supporting the troops.

>>320839342
>trigger warnings can cause triggers

I'm totally on board with that actually, so let me ask you a question because I'm curious, is it better to warn people about the actual content and risk it that way or not say anything and have them watch the scene that could be in some seses very similar to the events that traumatized someone so badly? Genuinely curious, it's a hard problem to answer.
Personally I think it's better to warn beforehand and risk it so people have the time to walk out before seeing something that could be much worse than words on a screen.

I hate this so much about American culture. You point out facts about how drone strikes are conducted with no regard to collateral damage by commanders? Americans say you hate soldiers. Question the motivations of going to a pointless war after 9/11? Americans say you hate the troops. Question the idea of continuing the war in the Middle East because hey, some of us don't want to get sent off to kill or be killed? Oh, Americans say you "hate democracy,"

Stress response depends on a lot of personality factors that aren't particularly well understood. Two people may experience similar trauma but elicit vastly different responses. It has a lot more to do with adaptability than being tough and manly, like a lot of people assume. Training can help get a person into the proper mindset, but they never know how they'll react until they actually encounter mental trauma.

2 things niggers in this thread need to remember:

1. PTSD deniers cannot explain the fact that Veteran suicides outnumber combat fatalities.
2. Soldiers who see active combat without developing any PTSD symptoms already suffer from some form of personality disorder.

They aren't fixing what is wrong, just adding more content.

They need to rewrite the gameplay from the ground up. Doing ANYTHING in the game is cumbersome as fuck.

Squad will be what ARMA wanted to be.

I don't think ArmA was ever trying to be what Squad is aiming for. The whole sandbox aspect is not part of Squad at all.

Glitchy as hell more like.

Squads doesn't want the whole sandbox aspect of Arma games. I don't even think they plan on adding an AI down the line. It's a strictly PVP games as far as I know.

>Soldiers who see active combat without developing any PTSD symptoms already suffer from some form of personality disorder.

I'm actually interested in reading up on this some more, if you have any links to studies on this.

Speaking from personal experience, I spent most of my life in some kind of empty depressed state from a neck injury, but was able to put on an extremely convincing "normal" face. Went through military service, saw terrible things, then got out and worked as EMT, also seeing terrible things, but none of it has actually bothered me. I think that bothers me more than anything else.

I also wonder sometimes if the high amount of mental illnesses you see in veterans these days is actually because they already had something going in. I more or less had a death wish going in to the army, I vaguely remember mentioning it to one of my close buddies when I was drunk, and he replied that he felt pretty similar.

You'd probably have to be pretty fucked up to want to go out and kill or be killed, right?

They need to finish Arma3 first.

ArmaIV will probably run on the infusion engine they are making for DayZ currently.

I wish BIS would actually re-do their engine rather than add shit on top of it, it runs so bloody awful the moment you bring in objects and AI. They need to make their games less CPU reliant too. Here's to hoping they don't try to do more JewLC no one will buy.

Verdun is crippled by how its approach to WW1 is just every games approach to battle but now with trenches. It really needs to ditch the short timers, fast pushes and short games. A game should go on for a couple hours, with people dropping in and out, and every push being deliberate, heavy effort instead of this battlefield bullshit it is now. It'd also help if it didnt look and play like such trash.

On mine its space bar + W or S to cycle between them.

>clunky UI

Not really, it works very simple.

>complicated voice coms

Non-mod:

Global = Everyone
Side = Your team
Direct = Proximity

Mod:

Proxmity chat
Radio = Whatever channel you are on

Wow so hard right?

>every action aside from movement and shooting is different

Like what? V for bipod. Tab for lock on. Wow so hard right?

>everything has its own button

No, not really

>every button does two things

No, again, it doesn't.

>mount, vault system

Theres a mod that literally 100% of players use that replaces the vault with a jump animation.

The fuck are you having a problem with. Give an example.

Here's an example.

Here's how to shoot a rocket at a tank in vanilla.

Take out launcher, load it, point at tank, press tab to lock on, wait for lock, fire rocket.

Here's how to shoot a rocket with the mod.

Take out launcher, load it, point at tank, switch to heat vision, set to either top down or wire guided mode, tab to get possible locks, switch to heat signature you want to lock onto to, wait for lock, fire rocket.

Wow so complicated right senpai?


Not saying Arma 3 is a perfect game. Far from, but you are complaining about the things that aren't a problem

TOH uses the Real Virtuality. It's Take on Mars and Carrier Command that used the Enforce engine.

Infusion is a mix of Enforce and Real Virtuality. We'll see how it looks on DayZ this year.

PTSD comes from repeated shock trauma to the brain which results in inflammation. This causes brain damage.

Firing too many rifle rounds, being near too many explosions, or a sudden head trauma can cause symptoms of PTSD.

The main problem with Arma is that servers run like shit if you have more than 50 players, especially on Altis and even more specifically in king of the hill mode. The only mode in arma with a decent TTK.

Arma 3 is theoretically the best game out there, but shitty servers, low tick rates, and laggy engine makes the game a lot worse than it should be.

[bolt action animation framework]

There's a third mod that I can't find right now that basically allows for different animations based on weapon status and it could be easily modded in but nobody wants it so whatever.

It would be piss easy to make too.

>>320846302
Combine a god awful net code with ballistics and you get a roll of the dice every shot you take.

It completely ruins the game really. You can't have a game that ultimately boils down to shooting other people where shots frequently don't register.

The controls are literally COD + stances

>mods to fix it

Are you implying that Squad wont have mods? Whats the point to it then.
>>
>>320855628
Controls are irrelevant when the net code and engine are some of the worst ever created.

It looks great but it runs like shit and gunfights are literally lag dice rolls.
>>
>>320855920
>lag dice rolls

Arma has little netcode lag

Its the event handler system that causes lag.

Hence why you can shoot a guy, he hasn't registered as dead yet, he can shoot you, then die.

>>
>>320856009
Ah. Whatever causes it, it is really unplayable. Even though I played hundreds of hours of Arma trying to squeeze fun out of it, and admittedly had fun playing it. Ultimately the lag just ruined the enjoyment. Unless your enemy is completely stationary, there is a good chance your shot won't register. You even see the "hit by bullet" animation but nothing actually registers.

I do know those mods. They are scripted and have their limitations, often glitchy particularly in MP. I lurk quite a lot on BiS forums, I'm pretty sure I'ld know if anyone trully bypassed those limitations. It has to be an engine fix, done by BiS.

If it was nearly as easy to make as you say, it would have been done.

There's a way to have bodies take forever to despawn so you can get huge amounts of corpses in places.
I never did that myself because my computer is not too good but I saved a few screenshots some guy posted a long time ago. Unfortunately I lost the ones that had shitloads of bodies.
