If you're tired of sitting in ages-long briefings and being commanded around by teenagers, I recommend finding a good Conflict server to play on! It's Reforger's main, like, this is what you're playing the game for gamemode and as long as you maneuver around some of the bad servers (Bad moderation, adding 300 different cosmetic mods for SUPER COOL TACTICOOL SKULL MASKS IN 12 DIFFERENT VARIANTS!! and that kind of thing) it can be a blast to try to make an impact in a large war with a group of randos just as pebble-brained as you and I
Maybe I'm a gambler in the making, because the reason I stick with GM mode is for those times when the GM is actually cooking some good shit and you get some genuinely good Ops going. I gotta agree on the tacticool stuff though. Its so over the top and I wish we had more mods that expanded on the cold war stuff. It also makes the lobby spend way more time at the arsenal boxes than usual.
@@keenanscruton3973 iirc darkgru is one of the ones with a billion mods for no good reason. Guess it wouldn't hurt to check out, people have different tastes. If it's the one I remember though I think there's definitely better out there
I am playing arma series since 2002, and I can say that your videos is the true arma experience. Some People forgot that arma always has been a sandbox that gives you tools to play the game how ever you want and have fun.
This is a Squad focused community and thats been something the Squad communities been in notorious denial of for about a decade now. Most either picked up Arma briefly, couldnt grasp it and rage quit. The majority of it has never touched the series and just goes off bizarre assumptions. In PRs heyday you never met player in either game who didnt play the other. Squad seems to have turned to a more typical tourny style meta game echo chamber community. Its more like a social club than it is a game people play as a team focused tactical shooter. Arma is whatever you want it to be. People have even made platformers out of it. BI themselves have made puzzle games with it. Theres servers that run similar to Squad, nam and mog servers for instance are very similar but with a bit more strategic and tactical depth. Basically Squad without the tourny style meta focus. Other servers are "super serial milsim" ops. They can be fun if youre in the right mood. Others are just complete fuck around fests. Like KOTH for instance. Its a COD style game mode. So many genres are just Arma spinoffs, Squad style BF milsim hybrids, extraction shooters, PUBG, hardcore survivals, even games like This Land is My Land are just liberation spinoffs. Right now the Squad is starting to show tis age and the communities migrating. Bi making game modes like Conflict that rival Squad backed by a modding community that can provide any era from WW2 to futuristic, even HALO/Star Wars mods is just something OWI cant compete with and it seems the Squad community is starting to split. The fanboy elitist echo chamber types are approaching meltdown mode, the more normal side of the community is simply migrating to the clearly better choice. OWI got too greedy in my opinion. Instead of going the PR route of including all these eras they split them into separate titles. As Reforger continues its much more rapid development it will suck a huge portion from Squad. When Arma 4 releases its basically OWIs death sentence.
So true... Arma is about junky servers, walking 20 minutes and listening bad jokes from mates and duying to teammate or a stray bullet, it is very fun neverless. You can play serious missions, be tactical and shit, but first of all ARMA is amazing sandbox
@@Tinylittledansonman What "OWIs" death sentence? What? OWI has been complete shit until basically last one-two years, and Arma has never really been playable. OWI seem to be getting their shit together after nearly 10 years, how long has it taken for Bohemia Interactive? And what do they have to show for it? DayZ? It's like saying DICE is a good game developer because of Dessert Combat, Forgotten Hope or Project Reality? I mean, whomever picks up the true PR experience will get a trophy, but I doubt it will be BI, OWI is more likely, but also unprobable. Give bluedrake 10 years; Maybe but yeah your comment was fun @Tinylittledansonman
@@davidcarlsson1396 Uhh how has Arma never been playable lol? Ive been playing that series since the early 2000s? Arma 3 has had more players than Squad at any given time for its entire lifespan lol. I have 3.5k hours on Arma 3 and still dont get bored. Squad became too repetitive and easy after around 900. It doesnt offer enough and its a tourny meta focused shooter. The Squad player base is just too low skill to keep it interesting, which is probably why they cant play Arma. They feel like NPCs to play with. They also just talk way too fucking much. Youre in a heavy CQC firefight? Yeah great time to chat it up. Armas a lot better in terms of authentic teamwork and communication focused gameplay. Wow I can turn my radio off when in heavy combat so I can actually hear enemies and talk to the friendlies I actually need to talk to? So crazy. Squad feels much more like an airsoft simulator. With Reforger though BI has already picked up the true PR experience but modernized. Its very close to what PR devs promised their standalone full title game would be before selling out. They used to always blame the BF2 engine for the limitations and would talk about what their full vision will eventually look like. Sadly they sold out to cultivate low cognition airsoft type kids because thats where the moneys at.
@@SackLexaRus I have bad news, that just means youre a noob lol. If youre good at Arma it feels more like hunting people. Even on the higher difficulty Invade and Annex servers I kill higher than the CAS pilots lol. The Reforger servers I play Im pretty hated by US teams lol. They know my name and they know I find where they stage and wreck them. Ill let them super FOB it up then attack and just demolish them. For me that's more what Armas about and where the realism hits hard. To be fair most players are low skill and kind of lost, just following anyone willing to lead. Similar to Squad in that aspect. But more like PR was you can become one of those infamous players the enemy team dreads when they see your name join the server. Kind of like infamous fighters and units throughout history. They would lower the enemies morale instantly just by being on the battlefield. If you played PR in its heyday you probably remember Pendeho for instance. Guy was a monster insurgent and US teams would see him and just panic lol. He would set grenade traps all over cache locations and knew them by heart. He was also nasty with IEDs, knew just where to put them. Its also why Squad gets super toxic though. People lash out at better players because everyone in Squad thinks they know what theyre doing best and everyone should listen to them. When they have terrible track records and nothing to show for it they start going through this circular logic that rotates between. "OMG its not Arma its just for fun its not that serious" to "We lost because you guys wouldnt listen to me, all the other SLs are noobs or pretending this is COD! You need to take it more seriously and work as a team!". You cant have both lol. Squads also way more determined by kills even though they deny it. One well placed MG can cut off an entire enemy team. In Arma they will just go around you. In Squad they will smoke and push like its ww2.
The great thing about the Arma series in general is that it can be the most in depth, badass, and immersive experience ever, or, it can be the silliest dumbest and funniest derpfest ever. just depends how you play it and who you play it with lol, literally the truest sandbox there is
@@CarlosVixil I think it's more the fact that he could have given an actual reason that the SL wouldn't want them having the bayonets on. Maybe there's some kind of disadvantage or debuff you get from running around with them on... but his reasoning was just "wah you weren't given permission to have fun, do what I say cause because"
@@TheKavuShowExactly, those type whom forget it’s a video game ruin it for everyone lmao. But the type at the start, the whole “stop moving you communist pos” is more my type. At least they try to make some laughs lol
Amazing video! I was the one creating the ops in the server you joined. Wish that BTR didn’t glitch you out during the D-Day operation haha. Should come back in sometime! Great content
Same feeling I get with Squad. Looks cool and I want to enjoy it but I'm personally not a fan of being screamed at by a squad leader in a different language while constantly getting killed by a guy 100 meters away in a bush that I never noticed. Yeah MilSims are an acquired tasted
@@aamacanSquad is fun man. Just depends on the server. Try the EGC server. I’ve been talked shit to for not knowing how to play on other “new players welcome” servers but I’d say the EGC people are the most chill/patient, so I mainly play on their server
@@inevitable408the new player servers are great when you get a good squad but you also get a lot of people without mics which kinda ruins it. Some squad leads take it far too seriously but there’s a great community on a few of the servers. Also try Star Wars mod cuz it’s amazing
This video popped up on my feed while watching an episode of OG Top Gear and the similarities are extraordinary. It's like watching Jeremy Clarkson play reforger 😂 thank you for this, sub earned.
Commenting for the algorithm because your videos made me buy this game yesterday and I love it. Came from tarkov, still playing tarkov but wanted to finally play Arma.
Just seen your last arma video and I loved it you got your self a new sub you’ll enjoy arma and find yourself wanting to return to it every other month as there is endless possibilities especially in arms 3
This is what i love about the arma series honestly, you kinda just take it at face value and it ends up becoming as serious or as silly as you want since just some chaotic sandbox. Thanks for the laughs, the subtle music and commentary was hilarious
I watched this video last night trying to get asleep, but it was so funny that I couldn't get asleep for hours. Joke about lantern was one of funniest jokes I heard in awhile. You got new subscriber, although you're one to blame for me almost falling asleep at work. Lol.
If I were an animal I’d be a slorGM, it’s a special slorgs offspring that plays Arma Reforger Game Master mode on privately hosted game sessions and has the chance to enjoy the game proper. I think you could be inspired by this animal 😅
Hey slorgs, love your Reforger video's, very funny and accurate. I have been playing ArmA since ArmA 3 was in beta and now playing Reforger. I love what you can do with it, but the experience on public servers always depends on who else is on the servers. The people make or break a good time. I have had the best times and the worst times playing Reforger, and it is great to see funny and honest "reviews". Cheers.
@@blackburn1489 i love the upgrade to the new engine and everything that comes with it, but i am talking about the classic arma experience here. I'll be waiting for Arma 4.
How hard is it for Bohemia to add a stock load out editor? You shouldn’t need the Bacon Loadout editor mod to be able to do this. It should be there by default
I know it's your opinion, but I started with official servers because I wanted to have the vanilla experience. I don't have the time and I don't know where to begin and I'm pretty happy with official servers
My last two play on conflict smaller island and normal one was actually good and not buggy! Didn’t got expulsed from server wich is why i stop playing the game at launch 🚀 its better than it was for sure! Heli are so hard to control though
Arma Reforger like the past Arma Series is what you make of it. One minute we are breaking out of prison, Jumping out of Helicopters into vietnam, fighting robot droids or creating a resistance. Literally a toy box full of creativity waiting to be opened. Do you and enjoy it man.
Trying to get into Nam servers are a pain dude! Always full but when I get in helicopters start going down baby! I was born in the wrong country during the wrong time because WOW am I a good Viet cong. Even nailed one of our own sky dragons by accident because they told me it was enemy during the night. Absolutely nailed the poor bastard but watching it go down like a rock had to be the funniest thing
I got myself this game a while ago, and I’ve learned how to play decently. If you need tips on the basics of the map and how to use your inventory or vehicles, there are handy tutorials on the main menu that will take you through first aid, gunplay and driving. As for thing to do, I personally like sitting around and building shit at bases, or running around as a Medic and failing to do my job.
TBH, the new kit menu looks a lot better than the older one. I know the difference isn't crazy, but it honestly seems a lot nicer to look at. It's less straining. I played reforger recently and did not like the inventory screen.
What follows is my opinion, I can only speak for myself and not others: As someone who has played Arma for 23 years (we just had our 23rd gaming anniversary), forget all the negative comments about how you 'should' play or what you 'should' have done. You played the game exactly how I estimate 90% of people first played and experienced ARMA - run around with a mate/s like chooks with your heads cut off and having a laugh. It was fun to be honest, but understand it can be a task just to play the game. I watched that video and yes, most of your criticism was actually correct. For example I have over 250gb of mods installed because I want to play on different servers. And yes, your comments about the mod requirements is true, there is no way of sugar coating it; the game requires mods. Without mods the game remains a blank canvas that is nothing more then a two decade old simulation, that accurately maps how a chronic asthmatic sufferer would go when they are running across bland and boring countryside whilst sometimes being shot at and killed by a person that they never saw by a gunshot they never heard. And it is actually good at depicting pain and suffering mixed with boredom and bullets. But the game has two things going for it, that both help and hinder the game's reputation. The following are the good things, after which I will explain why they are also bad; 1. A dev team who listens to the community of modders, release powerful tools to help those modders do what they do by making it easy for them to modify the game anyway they see fit. If that wasn't good enough the devs have made the tools themselves moddable. They will also take the time to help some people with certain technical problems or issues (modding in particular). 1. The community - I can jump onto any server and so long as I have a microphone, I can ask for help or simply say I am new and I will be helped. As I said I play on many different servers with many different game modes and rules, almost all of the people playing on those servers will not only help new players, but they also want to help new players. Some servers make it a rule that anyone who has experience on their server must help new members. Then there's the community of modders, I started out modding BF2, but I have also modded ARMA (extensively, for my son and I). I can jump onto a modding forum, ask for help with certain things, then get the help required sometimes even from devs. They want to help. Don't ask me why, they just do. Bohemia owe a lot to modders, as it is because of modders the game ARMA 3 for example, is still going after a decade. Now the bad; The dev team will often appear as though they aren't doing anything. They still have bugs in ARMA 3 that were present on launch day (get killed and shot out of your vehicle whilst it is on top of you, then have someone jump into the vehicle - the physics kicks in and you get kicked into the outer atmosphere). But they do work tirelessly behind the scenes, helping modders or producing tools to help modders etc., sometimes it will seem they set their sights too big or on too many different projects. Besides all that and possibly due to how old the game is, ARMA for example is a mess behind the scenes, different mods will conflict with other mods and you never know sometimes which mods are not playing nicely with each other. Then there's the mods themselves. Most people would not have a clue what each one of the 50 mods that are required to play on a particular server, can and does do. Then you will get mods that require extra key binds (the movement and climbing mod comes to mind), the control scheme for ARMA 3 is a bloody mess at times. Just take a look at the key binds menu when 60 mods are loaded and think about how you could talk a new player through setting it up. Depending on the mod, it may actively add tedious tasks and it is all depends on what the server owner wants. So yes; it is extremely frustrating and possibly very hard for new players to get into it. If that is your case, then the best thing you can do is ask. But even then some servers will have strict rules regarding even talking in local (do not play on these servers if you are new). Finally the community - just look at your previous video for proof, some people can be very toxic to new players. The new game Reforger may even have a toxicity program with pc and console players. The community is both extremely toxic and territorial for some unknown reason, yet at the same time they can be very helpful and easy to get on with. It is a true paradox. It was like that when ARMA 3 came out, I have no idea why but it is harmful to new players. I fully understand why this would put off new players, my advise; stick it out, the trolls will leave and or become more accepting. Most people I play with love new players, because it keeps the game they like playing alive. TL;DR - a good game that deserves praise and criticism and a franchise that has been built around the philosophy of; play the game the way you want to play it. If you got this far, thank you for reading. Thanks for video, cheers and have a good one.
One more thing, to any new players out there; when someone says that a new player should not play on modded servers, please ignore them. They are just being 'game snobs' and or being oddly territorial. Most veteran players will both hate and love new players, without new players they would not have a game to play. If they don't want you playing on their server, then that is their loss, because most server owners that think like that end up playing with themselves. And when they need to close down their server due to lack of players, then that is on them. It is your game, you paid for it, so find a server that you like with players who aren't like that.
to be honest i only play conflict in reforger, i do the ops with friends in servers back in arma 3, reforger is my battlefield, 3 is my spec-ops: the line
slorgs you should try modded conflict, i know there is no queue system and its a pain in the ass to get into, but it can have some pretty funny moments considering most servers are either 50v50 or 64v64
If you're tired of sitting in ages-long briefings and being commanded around by teenagers, I recommend finding a good Conflict server to play on! It's Reforger's main, like, this is what you're playing the game for gamemode and as long as you maneuver around some of the bad servers (Bad moderation, adding 300 different cosmetic mods for SUPER COOL TACTICOOL SKULL MASKS IN 12 DIFFERENT VARIANTS!! and that kind of thing) it can be a blast to try to make an impact in a large war with a group of randos just as pebble-brained as you and I

Arma Reforger is the Arma we needed
Screw people that try to gatekeep your fun. Just be you dude! Great video Great content **** the haters. You arent THAT special, youre a Specialist o7
you've made me re-download Reforger!
the upgrade from the Iphone 14 to the Iphone 15 made me laugh XD Perfect example
Glad you could join us in Whiskey One lads.
How hard is it for Bohemia to add a stock load out editor? You shouldn’t need the Bacon Loadout editor mod to be able to do this. It should be there by default
Yeah i tried it last night and refunded it fast… game felt empty, paid for a running simulator honestly
Please play more reforger with Jeff, its too funny
Inspiring: You were able to comprehend a Scot
This is hilarious. The teamkil LMAO 13:35
Telling someone to play official servers is the worst advice a Arma player can give.
I know it's your opinion, but I started with official servers because I wanted to have the vanilla experience. I don't have the time and I don't know where to begin and I'm pretty happy with official servers
keeping it funky keeping it fresh!
Absolutely love these.
First 10 seconds sold me
My last two play on conflict smaller island and normal one was actually good and not buggy! Didn’t got expulsed from server wich is why i stop playing the game at launch 🚀 its better than it was for sure! Heli are so hard to control though
I haven’t tried the official servers yet. The modded ones have been the most fun for me.
Wish i had money to get arma reforged
Arma Reforger like the past Arma Series is what you make of it. One minute we are breaking out of prison, Jumping out of Helicopters into vietnam, fighting robot droids or creating a resistance. Literally a toy box full of creativity waiting to be opened. Do you and enjoy it man.
I definitely played with some of those guys
Trying to get into Nam servers are a pain dude! Always full but when I get in helicopters start going down baby! I was born in the wrong country during the wrong time because WOW am I a good Viet cong. Even nailed one of our own sky dragons by accident because they told me it was enemy during the night. Absolutely nailed the poor bastard but watching it go down like a rock had to be the funniest thing
man i was on flus pve server the past few days too lol wonder if im here somewhere
Always fun in whiskey-one
8:47 still waitin' for pop smoke
I got myself this game a while ago, and I’ve learned how to play decently. If you need tips on the basics of the map and how to use your inventory or vehicles, there are handy tutorials on the main menu that will take you through first aid, gunplay and driving. As for thing to do, I personally like sitting around and building shit at bases, or running around as a Medic and failing to do my job.
Can you play with an Xbox controller? I tried squad but it's hard to play it with it
3:52 Bit of a haircut youve given yourself there
6:20= best banter ever
I laughed my ass off on the two pilots bickering back and forth :D
haven't laughed at a vid so hard in a while W video
Absolutely love this series 😂😂
Fully articulated river otter.
I keep looking at this game trying to figure out what I can do here that I can't do in Arma3.
Id be a Grizzly Bear cuz maybe then women will want to be around me
TBH, the new kit menu looks a lot better than the older one. I know the difference isn't crazy, but it honestly seems a lot nicer to look at. It's less straining. I played reforger recently and did not like the inventory screen.
Raggiana bird-of-paradise
Tardigrades - chill through hard vacuum like it's a nap
Fuckin penguin 🐧
Y’all made my day with this one 😂
What follows is my opinion, I can only speak for myself and not others:
As someone who has played Arma for 23 years (we just had our 23rd gaming anniversary), forget all the negative comments about how you 'should' play or what you 'should' have done. You played the game exactly how I estimate 90% of people first played and experienced ARMA - run around with a mate/s like chooks with your heads cut off and having a laugh. It was fun to be honest, but understand it can be a task just to play the game.
I watched that video and yes, most of your criticism was actually correct. For example I have over 250gb of mods installed because I want to play on different servers. And yes, your comments about the mod requirements is true, there is no way of sugar coating it; the game requires mods. Without mods the game remains a blank canvas that is nothing more then a two decade old simulation, that accurately maps how a chronic asthmatic sufferer would go when they are running across bland and boring countryside whilst sometimes being shot at and killed by a person that they never saw by a gunshot they never heard. And it is actually good at depicting pain and suffering mixed with boredom and bullets.
But the game has two things going for it, that both help and hinder the game's reputation. The following are the good things, after which I will explain why they are also bad;
1. A dev team who listens to the community of modders, release powerful tools to help those modders do what they do by making it easy for them to modify the game anyway they see fit. If that wasn't good enough the devs have made the tools themselves moddable. They will also take the time to help some people with certain technical problems or issues (modding in particular).
1. The community - I can jump onto any server and so long as I have a microphone, I can ask for help or simply say I am new and I will be helped. As I said I play on many different servers with many different game modes and rules, almost all of the people playing on those servers will not only help new players, but they also want to help new players. Some servers make it a rule that anyone who has experience on their server must help new members. Then there's the community of modders, I started out modding BF2, but I have also modded ARMA (extensively, for my son and I). I can jump onto a modding forum, ask for help with certain things, then get the help required sometimes even from devs. They want to help. Don't ask me why, they just do. Bohemia owe a lot to modders, as it is because of modders the game ARMA 3 for example, is still going after a decade.
Now the bad;
The dev team will often appear as though they aren't doing anything. They still have bugs in ARMA 3 that were present on launch day (get killed and shot out of your vehicle whilst it is on top of you, then have someone jump into the vehicle - the physics kicks in and you get kicked into the outer atmosphere). But they do work tirelessly behind the scenes, helping modders or producing tools to help modders etc., sometimes it will seem they set their sights too big or on too many different projects. Besides all that and possibly due to how old the game is, ARMA for example is a mess behind the scenes, different mods will conflict with other mods and you never know sometimes which mods are not playing nicely with each other.
Then there's the mods themselves. Most people would not have a clue what each one of the 50 mods that are required to play on a particular server, can and does do. Then you will get mods that require extra key binds (the movement and climbing mod comes to mind), the control scheme for ARMA 3 is a bloody mess at times. Just take a look at the key binds menu when 60 mods are loaded and think about how you could talk a new player through setting it up.
Depending on the mod, it may actively add tedious tasks and it is all depends on what the server owner wants. So yes; it is extremely frustrating and possibly very hard for new players to get into it. If that is your case, then the best thing you can do is ask. But even then some servers will have strict rules regarding even talking in local (do not play on these servers if you are new).
Finally the community - just look at your previous video for proof, some people can be very toxic to new players. The new game Reforger may even have a toxicity program with pc and console players. The community is both extremely toxic and territorial for some unknown reason, yet at the same time they can be very helpful and easy to get on with. It is a true paradox. It was like that when ARMA 3 came out, I have no idea why but it is harmful to new players. I fully understand why this would put off new players, my advise; stick it out, the trolls will leave and or become more accepting. Most people I play with love new players, because it keeps the game they like playing alive.
TL;DR - a good game that deserves praise and criticism and a franchise that has been built around the philosophy of; play the game the way you want to play it.
If you got this far, thank you for reading. Thanks for video, cheers and have a good one.
One more thing, to any new players out there; when someone says that a new player should not play on modded servers, please ignore them. They are just being 'game snobs' and or being oddly territorial. Most veteran players will both hate and love new players, without new players they would not have a game to play. If they don't want you playing on their server, then that is their loss, because most server owners that think like that end up playing with themselves. And when they need to close down their server due to lack of players, then that is on them. It is your game, you paid for it, so find a server that you like with players who aren't like that.
Had (good luck translating)
Yoo flues server one of the best 💯
😂😂😂 I'm Catalyst. Was so fun
Perfect
You should try conflict servers like insurgency or wcs servers, darkgru servers etc just make sure the servers are good
guys have rifles with deadly ammo, granades and granadelaunchers but please dont put your knifes on your rifles before you enter combat..........
to be honest i only play conflict in reforger, i do the ops with friends in servers back in arma 3, reforger is my battlefield, 3 is my spec-ops: the line
I've never seen 16 or 77 ping before in my life on Arma Reforger. I sit at a casual 370ping
12:06 killed me
Lmao im in here at 9:50
i'd be a shark that can't swim
Love arma reforger
you should play WCS servers they will give you the best times there iv had a blast there and its now has the most servers at the top
Arma fans go full sperg when people make fun of their favorite milsim
squirrel
great choice, i also love nuts
@@slorgs I love Nuts, the protagonist of berk
This game seem fun bro and I'm military but these people bro living the arma life it's just plain weird it's supposed to be about fun
Its some peoples fun alot of milsim players dont like conflict and prefer to play a more structered operation
slorgs you should try modded conflict, i know there is no queue system and its a pain in the ass to get into, but it can have some pretty funny moments considering most servers are either 50v50 or 64v64
Yes
dear slorgs i would be a shart cow...
Goat
Thanks for playing on are server.. Are one is the last one you played on were you actually got to play arma. You all ways welcome back...
