ALPHA17 Posted August 28, 2013 Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 Need to start playing this game. Anyone want to lend a n00b a hand? Watch the following guide (series) and join a clan, the latter is really important if you want to get the best out of the game. http://www.youtube.com/user/Dslyecxi No run and gun type of game modes? Scout in the clans, some peeps would arrange run and gun scenarios as well although with the level of realism, weapon physics and simulations involved in the system this will be a far cry from BattleField / CoD type gunplay in which you have to shoot a guy till he can double as a collander. One shot-one kill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

piper Posted August 28, 2013 Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 How's the online presence for Arma 2 (base game)? If good enough, I'll give that a shot first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALPHA17 Posted August 28, 2013 Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 How's the online presence for Arma 2 (base game)? If good enough, I'll give that a shot first. You will find ~1500 players at any given time, not a huge number but enough for an outing. Expect DAY-Z to have a huge chunk of these numbers. Most of the community of the actual mil-sim has moved onto ARMA III for their fix of tactical-precision action so I would suggest you get the BETA instead of pussy-footing in ARMA II. Finally, it will be a great point to justify your card upgrade too. =P Only way to get the former is via STEAM, so stay frosty and contact the Spindoctor for more information. Cheerio!

piper Posted August 28, 2013 Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 I'll have to upgrade my card for this game it so appears. I'd rather stay frosty and wait out the 30 odd days for BF4 beta before I take any upgrade decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALPHA17 Posted August 28, 2013 Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 I'll have to upgrade my card for this game it so appears. No, your current card will be able to handle the game, the ARMA III engine is far better behaved than the ARMA II engine and better optimised to boot. Although for best results a new graphic card is in the pipes for sure. This way you can actually bench your card before BattleField itself in my opinion. I'd rather stay frosty and wait out the 30 odd days for BF4 beta before I take any upgrade decision. Get the BETA of ARMA otherwise you will need to fork out the full monty after its release in September. Hope this helps, Cheerio! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ALPHA17 Posted August 30, 2013 Report Share Posted August 30, 2013 DayZero comes with Arma 3 ? No. Day-Z official release will be on the ARMA II engine. Although the MOD community has made a build of Day-Z on the ARMA III engine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarketTantrik Posted August 30, 2013 Report Share Posted August 30, 2013 This game can be pretty brutal. Played the first tutorial mission today and dies within 90 seconds. Just two bullets were enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
