The CSAT VTOL looks like it belongs in a child's cartoon, and I'm not overly fond of the setting in general.

Terrain is pretty good, but almost everything about it I can get through mods already.

...they're literally the same game, dipshit. Arma is made first, and sold to the public, VBS is developed on top of the already existing Arma game. It's been this way since 2001 with the original OFP and first VBS release, I've played every iteration since. The only major difference between the two thus far is that VBS always had a more detailed mission editor
>>
>>341167858
I literally directly linked you a video of features that don't exist in ARMA you retard. They're different fucking games.

Would you like some more?

Is this a "More detailed mission editor"?
>>
>>341167858
They don't cooperate and the engines spit off since ARMA1.
>>
Militaries don't even seriously use VBS to train infantry. It's still a lot less realistic and practical than MILES.
>>
>>341168932
>They don't cooperate and the engines spit off since ARMA1.

This is patently false, VBS3 literally uses the same engine as Arma, you're on the Internet here, there's nothing stopping you from researching any of this
>>
>>341170390
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ir8xdku6JRQ

Yes they do.

Small, small part of training, but they do.

VBS3 is on Real Virtuality 3, ARMA3 is on Real Virtuality 4.

Yes, mainly because I know the cheating AI will make the game actually hard, rather than the snoozefest it was on those other shitty maps.
>>
>>341173526
And truck drivers for convoy ops. The fact is that actual combat training isn't done using VBS.

>>
>>341173526
Ideally, yes, in practice though, at least from what I saw and experienced on Camp Lejeune, it's used when the training and tactics command wants to be able to justify their budget for the simulations center that nobody cares to use and your platoon gets drawn up to do 5 months of training with it. Well, 5 months that really turned into about a month of legit "practice" in a virtual environment and 4 months of dicking around with VBS2 to try and create Leshurn in the game so that we could raid the PX in style.
>>
>>341159427
Mask is shit, but rest is good

Seriously all the stuff they are adding in now like the combined 5.56/.50 gun are shit that needed to be in the base game. This semi futuristic setting is better than the boring as shit one they had before.
>>
>>341167858
They are two completely separate companies

There is absolutely no relation between them.
>>
does the game still run like shit?

then no
>>
>>341171081
I'm patently right though if you do a little bit more research. VBS is a fork off the ARMA1 version of real virtuality.

This is honestly what the vast majority of Arma players believe is best. Honestly they should have gone full futuristic with shields, plasma weapons, lasers ect.

I'm happy for it but I'm tired of ArmA so I'm not excited. It looks like a really good addition that won't fundamentally change anything about the design but will add some well made content for everyone to use.

Make up your mind. Its either futuristic (Which no, no it isnt) or its just more modern shit.

Thankfully they are fixing that, oh so fucking slowly.

At least it was different. If you really want your shitty M4 AK, go play Arma 2.

I hope so. The more groups the better.
>>
>>341178046
It would have been their most successful title ever. They should have continued support for Arma 2 and used Arma 3 for future warfare. There simply isnt a semi realistic futuristic warfare game out there and they would have made a fortune getting an whole new wave of players into the series, rather than just forcing all the arma 2 players to migrate because they stopped support.

If you didn't want anyone to challenge your opinion why post it. This isn't your safe space dyslexci.

The weapons in vanilla Arma 3 didn't feel futuristic and behaved exactly like modern weapons. The only difference was the model and names were fictional.

I'm sure Bohemia loved saving on licensing but it didn't really do much for me.

Either go full future weapon or pick weapons other than the standard fare. Instead we got """future""" weapons that were identical to modern except in name.

Really the most pointless rifle. They could've given us an underbarrel shotgun but can't have shotguns in arma anymore.
They could've given us enhanced night vision but no they got lazy.
CTRG, NATO and CSAT pacific all have lmg versions of their rifles instead of dedicated lmgs because they didn't want to bother making more models too.

It's funny that they focus on adding all sorts of new vehicles and islands and shit while ArmA 3 is still just as clunky as the original OFP, and its still is optimized like ass.

>>341184137
Yeah I tried the Halo stuff. It has potential but the textures are fucking awful and I don't really like the gear. I wish they'd added a few more optics, and used the SAW from Halo 4 instead of the shitty LMG they made up. A few extra guns would've been nice too, but I suppose Halo was never a game with a lot of them, just one for every role.

Because the one decently realistic game should now just be shitted up because faggots who already have 100 options for lasers and ballons and clowns and whatever other goofy shit you want have to eat up the one game that doesn't do that shit.

I guess it's only a matter of time until DCS just becomes some Star Fox rip off to boot.
>>
>>341186468
So by your shitty logic Arma is now bad because people play mods in different settings.

There is no fucking reason they couldnt release a futuristic DLC pack and let people and server owners decide if they use it or not, except of course because of idiots like you continuously whining that other people having fun ruins your enjoyment of the game.
>>
>>341186468
So just because they'd both be set in the future, they're the same game? Arma and Battlefield have many differences in how they play, and the mechanics. It's like saying Arma 2 is some 2nd rate BF3 just because they both have M4s and AKs.

The worst thing about Arma has always been its beyond terrible engine and developer skills. We need a modern ArmA clone made with multiplayer sandboxing/missioning in mind that's not total garbage.

Closest thing to that is SQUAD but its smaller scale.

Caseless ammo has a lot of problems that haven't made it any better than cased, namely the additional heat generated and fouling causing more misfires and such. Caseless ammo can fire, but there's have to be some serious advances before it can be workable enough to even try to spread it around.

Dude, the G11 had a million problems, 90% of them were around caseless ammo. Caseless ammo doesn't work anywhere near well enough to start making the case over having brass, you'd need that same sort of giant fucking leap in the tech to make it widespread in use and usefulness.

If it works so well and is so problem free, why is it that no one uses them, why you can't find it except in a prototype or two that absolutely couldn't make it.

You lost. You claimed Arma 3 was futuristic and the only thing you could come up with was caseless, something we have today and that works, even if its not widespread because there is no reason for it to be right now.

Arma 3's vision of the future is body armor everywhere so you can take multiple rounds to the chest, thermals on everything even static MGs and RCWS on everything.

Why wouldnt it be? If all the changes are purely cosmetic, its still Arma 3, and its still at core a modern day shooter.

Changing a gun into a model of a dick and having it shoot sperm doesnt make it any less of a gun in function. It might look absolutely fucking retarded, but the core game is still the same shit.

Caseless, retarded rubber uniform bodyarmor and helmets and vehicle designs. We dug into caseless, but it wasn't the only thing I mentioned.

Again, you keep saying caseless works, but it still has a fuck ton of problems. It works about as well as modern humanoid robots and driverless vehicles, things which are nowhere near ready for any sort of widespread use like you see in arma 3.

Admins for A3G had a "hands off" moderation policy. Retards constantly shitted on content creators when their missions/etc fucked up. Instead of backing content creators mods sat on their thumbs. In a move the surprised many, would be content creators stopped volunteering and ceased making content. Constant drama that admins refused to address. Head admin vetoed mod choices of the group. More shitters joined ops, refused to play in alignment with the groups tatical view and continued to shit up ops. The group bled players until mostly shitters remains and then the admins couldn't afford the same servers they did before.
