Siege is actually tacticool as fuck though if you play it right.
>>331992816
>Siege is actually tacticool as fuck though if you play it right.
Is it worth the money? I mean, how alive is the game?
>>331993252
Game is alive, yeah. It's getting decent updates and shit every few weeks. It's honestly a surprise from Ubi because the season pass isn't needed, maps are free, can buy Ops with in-game money, has a comp scene, has casual, lots of players and shit.
It's good.
>>331993361
How's the co-op in it?
>>331993361
Isn't it p2p? That's automatic trashing right there.
>>331992531
>tacticool thread
>not including The Division
OTHER than being a Destiny RNG/death by numbers clone.. It's bretty gud
>>331994014
You mean the part with weapon customization or the fact that it takes half and hour to shoot someone wearing a hoodie in the face?
>>331993553
p2p? No
>>331992531
Siege is actually great and probably my 2015 GOTY. The only terrible gripe is the shitty netcode. Game is great and alive. Definitely look into getting it.
>>331994206
Peer to peer, as in no proper servers. Pretty sure it is.
>>331993494
Co-op is terrorist hunt. Otherwise it's 5v5.
>>331993553
Depends on your definition of P2P. As in, peer to peer, pay to play.
But it's neither of them. Servers are dedicated, Ubi hosted, the only Peer to Peer aspect is the voice chat.
"Paying" gets you content faster. Such as the season pass content, skins and such, nothing that gives you an advantage.
Does 4chan play Arma?
If so we should get a group going!
>>331994569
I think you are better of making a thread on /v/ or /vg/ and try your luck with it.
And I don't personally play it.
>>331994170
the first part
and the second is covered by the "OTHER than being a Destiny clone" bit

>>331994472
Oh, it does have servers. That's actually interesting, then.
>>331994654
>Animations and quality of life features make it tacticool
>>331994691
When they work, at least. They're.. temperamental recently. But it's getting worked on.
>>331993361
25 000 for a dlc operator
yeah, radical.
>>331994789
Your definition of Tacticool must differ from mine..
>>331995029
There is literally nothing else to spend Renown on. Unless you're really want skins.
I'm sat about 100k now, bought one of the DLC op's. If you play regularly, you can get them easy. Or pay real money and get them now. They're not essential, they're not game breaking if you don't have them.
I prefer this than the typical way of locking them behind a paywall.
>>331995029
>>331995192
i only have 250 renown and i'm level 40
i have like half the operators
>>331993494
I don't think it's a good game for coop, but then again I don't think fighting AI in a shooter is very fun at all.
Either way, the game is absolutely oriented towards competitive PvP
Post pics of tacticool u guys!
I need some refreerance for my nerf-- eh.. airsoft gear
>>331995373
Then you're obviously bad at the game.
Level 65, all the Op's except Buck, all attachments, four pieces of camo for certain ops and that's basically it.
You get more renown for winning. Play ranked, get good, sorry you're bad.
>>331995393
This, the co-op isn't.. great. It exists and is clearly a holder from Patriots.
>>331994569
there used to be a arma 3 general on /vg/ but it died, they actually used to play together a whole lot
>>331995373
Holy fuck level 40 and 250 renown and only half?
I got all the operators by level 30. I'm level 80 and banking on 85k.
>>331993494
It's easy street to making renown in the game if you play normal difficulty. Realistic difficulty just makes the the AI aimbot and wallhack you.
>>331995879
>Realistic difficulty just makes the the AI aimbot and wallhack you.
Sounds real fucking realistic... Oh well.
I would like to have something SP. So Terror Hunt is a no-go then.
>>331996053
There are "Situations". Which acts as the tutorial really, but there's 15 missions with 3 ranks to attain on each.
It's not great. Terrohunt is "Okay" at best though, something to play while getting used to the map, stick to normal or hard.
MGO ne1?
>>331995610
it died because people couldt keep their shit together
additionally the fact the general on /vg/ was dedicated to a group was a load of bullshit
>>331994569

Right. How can I even compete?
>>331996552
You don't need thousands of hours in a game to have fun. People can learn and others can teach.
There's always the kid in war and shit that's screaming "GAME OVER MAN GAME OVER" and that type of stuff, it's fun.
>>331996318
>The general on /vg/ was dedicated to a group
Because it was Arma 3 General
The group was made from the thread, not the other way around.
If you wanted to advertise your group there, there was no problem.
>>331992531
>Looking forward to:
Door Kickers 2.
>>331996708
Yeah. But I've tried PVP and was dead all the time.
>>331996785
PvP in Arma is usually a set thing anyway. Going through the actual game is often a crap-shoot, unless it's Zeus or AI. Its' why it's good to get a group outside of it.
>>331992531
>we will never get a good Tom Clancy related game again
>There will never be a good SWAT game again

Goddammit Euros at least give us back Tom Clancy
>>331996552
you realize a lot of experience from arma 2 makes a massive difference, right?
i bet you were one of the /vg/ regular
>>331996735
look buddy thanks to those threads existing any arma thrads on /v/ was fucked for several years
furthermore we had the whole drama with one of the admins of the group being a janitor or mod on this site
yeah its true i despise groups that advertised in /vg/ simply because of what i saw when i played with them
also all that underage in the vids
>>331996873
>PvP in Arma is usually a set thing anyway
What do you mean?
>>331996962
I secretly hope that Wildlands will be ACCEPTABLE.
SWAT 5 never. Because of Activiosion. Or there will be SWAT 5, but we will be:
a. Long fucking DEAD
b. Carl on Duty: Police Brutality the Corridor RUN AND GUN.
c. Sold to someone who cares and it will be AWESOME (AHAHAHAHAH)
A for JA - welp, I don't know. I got nothing.
>>331997206
>you realize a lot of experience from arma 2 makes a massive difference, right?

I have no idea what the fuck you mean. But this post is somehow negative. Fuck you, just in case.
>>331997206
>arma threads were fucked on /v/
How so? Why would you make a thread here rather than just go to the general
>drama with one of the admins of the group being a janitor
That was shitposting to bully one of the members, it wasn't real.
>what I saw when I played with them
Good Operations?
>underage
We had TWO kids that were underage. Kuthar and Kevin.
Outside of them, the average age in /a3g/ was 23
>>331997395
With it being Set, I mean like.. It requires time to get people together, it's usually organised and prepared in advance and such. It's rarely a "join server, instantly in a fight with 32 other guys fighting 32 other guys"
>>331997413
>>331997395
>>331997206
Keep your autism and drama on /vg/, please.
>>331996962
We literally have Rainbow Six Siege. There's also no point in making a new Jagged Alliance game when the 1.13 developers keep pumping out features constantly since they have no real development schedule or deadlines to meet.
>>331997624
>Keep your autism and drama on /vg/, please.
What the fuck are you even on about? In >>331996318 post anon has a link to his steam profile, saying another anon to hit him up when he wanted to play A3. I checked his hours played and said that he has a lot of hour put into it in >>331996552 post. Then some anon posts in >>331997206 some shit that I don't even know where is coming from. Then You post Geralts face and being all fucking negative and shit.
What the fuck is it that you want? Don't have shit to contribute to the thread? Walk fucking past it.
>>331997679
>Rainbow Six Siege
>Cartoony and unrealistic shlock with bizarre character design and rigid "classes"
I won't deny that Rainbow Six Siege is fun, but it has nothing in common with the old games
>>331997395
my point is hours being a operator from various arma titles count
also fuck you too pal
>>331997413
>How so? Why would you make a thread here rather than just go to the general
because its was dedicated to 1 group with others for attention on it, it was bad
>That was shitposting to bully one of the members, it wasn't real.
ITS JUST A PRANK BRO
>Good Operations?
nope the few i saw with any group related was a clusterfuck, seen public ops be much better planned in general
>We had TWO kids that were underage. Kuthar and Kevin.
>Outside of them, the average age in /a3g/ was 23
the point still stands, its a behavior issue
im all for playing arma with all kinds of people but what i experienced during my relatively short time was what i would call a nightmare for anyone new
>>331997624
negative, its time to clear the air
>>331998096
>cartoony and unrealistic
What in the fuck are you talking about.
>>331998358
It wasn't dedicated.
Again, the group was made from the thread
Also, the shitposting was literally bullying.
Thats how we got rid of bad memebers, bullying.
We had plenty good ops.
Like the 64 player joint op.
>behavior issue
What behaviors?
Arma 3 General was the only arma group that didn't have any of the shitty crap that 99% of other groups have.
It was the BESt group.
>>331998096
>Cartoony and unrealistic shlock
Siege is reminiscent of the older games, moreso than Lockdown and the Vegas series.
>>331992531
Siege is a lot of fun. Closest thing to a multiplayer SWAT4/R63 Versus mode for me and they seem to care about it as much as Ubisoft can care. Terroist Hunt is more of a minigame which is shit though.
How is Insurgency coop?
I've only played competitive modes for like 100-200 hours.
I'd really like to play some tacticool coop but don't really want to have to have to do roleplay/circlejerk shit. I always find Arma to be a chore because it's a mix of friendly firing G for Gear, bored so I'm gonna shoot everyone players and people that demand you listen to their every instruction and get really shitty when you don't.
I want something similar to the Ghost Recon group we used to have. Good missions and teams of 2-16
>>331998773
not the anon you're replying to, but I stumbled into Arma 3 Gen plenty of times throughout the year with plans of maybe getting into the game or playing some other tacticool shit
every single fucking time the general was pure shit flinging, just people namedropping and shit talking the same people they were probably quietly pretending to like in VOIP
it was nothing but absolute trash, I REALLY wanted to play some fucking arma or PR or something with people, but every time I was driven away before I even posted
I don't know how a game like Arma of all games would attract such attentionwhoring manchildren, but the arma generals were LITERALLY worse than /tesg/ in terms of shitposting and attentionwhoring
>>331999286
>every single fucking time the general was pure shit flinging, just people namedropping and shit talking the same people they were probably quietly pretending to like in VOIP
Yes, there was shit posting. We shit post in the thread so we didn't shitpost in game.
Why would you base the gameplay (which your cunt ass never saw) over the THREAD and not even the chat?
>>331994302
It's not, netcode can be pretty shit though.
>>331998773
>bullying to get rid of people
use administration tools dummy, if someone is a problem you get rid of them without being a dick
>What behaviors?
general anarchy during and even when its not go time
>We had plenty good ops.
>Like the 64 player joint op.
unknown to me, i dropped out long before i saw any of that
>Arma 3 General was the only arma group that didn't have any of the shitty crap that 99% of other groups have.
do describe the "shitty crap" most groups seemly have
i do not support ranks but establish leadership roles when called for, website registration is bull
>It was the BESt group.
im going to disagree there
look the best way to end this argument is you playing with me, i can show you exactly what i mean and why i believe its better
>>331999286
this guy understand exactly what im on about
>>331999395
the thread reflected the community
shitposting just because its really just a bad excuse
>>331998096
>Cartoony and unrealistic
What
>>331998910
co op insurgency is actually pretty entertaining, the ai is braindead but they make up for it with sheer numbers moreso than anything
worth a try
>>331999649
>use administration tools dummy
We could have easily banned people.
1. Bullying was more fun.
2. If we were to ever ban a shitter for bad behavior, everyone would be banned and there'd be no group.
>anarchy
What? Proof.
>joint op
We had plenty joint ops. Now a3g does joint ops with facepunch.
>shitty crap
yessir no sir
ranks
training
tryhard airsoft mallcop crap
leadership crap
>>331999874
>we could have easily banned people.
>Bullying was more fun.
so dickbags all around, alright
>anarchy
i cannot provide pictures or anything of that sort because who the fuck records these
failure of the people doing the mod crap and website crap led to new people being left behind very often
>Now a3g does joint ops with facepunch.
cancer + cancer = cancer
>traning crap
good luck improving the group overall without it, i have taken newbies and made them into operators in less than 6 months
is used to expand skills and improve existing ones
standardized understanding of how various things should be done
>leadship crap
good luck getting anything done with no chain of command once you get more than 6 players
leadership is required for anything beyond a tiny group
leadership dont have to last though games which would make it ranks
im telling you its all bad bro
Does Jagged Alliance has the best weapons autism in the market right now?

>>332000906

Ground Branch's development is so slow though since it's like 3 main guys developing it on the side plus a UI guy. They're going to go into early access soon, but the game still seems like its a few years away from something I would want to play regularly. I think the controls are interesting and it has potential but they need more manpower and regular working hours

Can't do that without the Publisher, but AFAIK they don't really want that. Plus the failed Kickstarter doesn't really help.
I personally am interested in it, but don't really wait that long. Just less than a year.
Unlike Interstellar Marines, Ground Branch seem to be making progress the way they see the game.

>Why would you base the gameplay
I didn't base the gameplay. I didn't say a thing about the ops being shit. I said the general was shit. The COMMUNITY. The whole reason the general exists.
>>331999395
>Yes, there was shit posting. We shit post in the thread so we didn't shitpost in game
First, this assumes you have to shit post AT all. If you HAD to shitpost in the thread, that further proves it was a shit community. Second of all, the general didn't REVOLVE around the ops your little special circle had, it was a general discussion thread for the series Arma. Not warbuttbuddies general, a general thread open to everyone to talk about the game. When you make the thread entirely shitposts and a fucking mess overall, you deter new players, and that's why it was shit.
So you're asking why I'd base the gameplay off the thread instead of the actual gameplay? Because that's the whole fucking point of the thread. To give a place to discuss the game, and even your little group of namefags ops. Why the fuck WOULDN'T someone base the gameplay off the thread, if the thread is a complete clusterfuck of children having a popularity contest.
>>332003989
Who doesn't shitpost
>>332002780
IM seems to be in trouble since development for them has slowed down so much and they had to let go of some more staff recently. Feels like it fell apart when they tried to implement that survival esque gamemode instead of developing the core gameplay. All I want from them is a proper loadout/equipment system, new weapons, and leaning. They've been stuck with the SMG/Assault rifle for years
I hate how secretive the Due Process devs are. They've pretty much revamped the entire look of the game and they won't tell anyone anything about it.

Yeah. They are now looking for a Publisher. I hope to fuck they find someone decent.
As for game modes, I would think that they are better off just making single-player with co-op, rather the PVP stuff they are adding now. Plus, I still want my fucking landsharks! The only reason I've got the fucking thing.

Interstellar Marines, but it will be released in 40+ years from now.
I also think that Alien Swarm is tacticool. If you don't mind the third person.

Epsilon. I just found out it's in early access on Steam. It's made by the devs who made that Takedown Red Sabre trash.
>>332008084
Any idea on the price and release date or EA?
>>332008092
It ran very badly on my laptop. And it shouldn't have. Maybe they fixed it.
I had to get a refund because of that. Might get it later, if they shape it better than Red Sabre.
