Ivan is genuinely the best. I had the distinct honor of getting to meet him a few years ago in Prague. He is an incredible person and someone who cares so deeply about Arma and its community. Much love, Ivan! Be well!!
The best single-player aspect of Arma is and will always be the editor.
+1
editor and scripting for me was about 90% of my time spent on arma
Yes, but nothing can replace a good well produced campaign. Arma 3 has great official SP content.
@@youcantpredictthat The only campaign in A3 I played through fully was Laws of War, and I thought it was pretty well done for the engine. Great capstone to playing the game for nearly a decade. I hear ya tho!
I appreciate the idea that I can personally make a campaign with relative ease.
@@EntryLevelLuxury Laws of War was the best story wise but I highly recommend other too. TacOps regarding gameplay is top Arma SP content.
But as someone who has +1000 hours in editor I feel you. Without some kind of Eden Arma won't be Arma.
I don't understand why people complain about the controls. I have been a hardcore fan of the Arma series for many years now and the controls feel right to me. It's just that they are dependent on the interactivity of the world and all the items. So as long as interactivity increases, with all the vanilla and moded content, it's perfect. No UI and stupid scroll menus, and 500 shortcuts. Controls that adapt to your situation and let you interact with the world, its what we all wanted, wasn't it?
I do understand why the controls got "dumbed downed" or "Streamlined", but I feel like currently the controls for PC players are being super limited just to fit them on a controller, while PC could have a lot more actions, It could be that we need to get used to Reforger, but sometimes while playing I feel restricted, like someone tied my hands.
yeah honestly the console limitations kill gameplay for me
I have been a hardcore Arma player for many years. To be honest, for me the controls feel very good, I think it's more about the features that are connected to them, as soon as more features and options are added, by devs or community, it will feel better. I mean with Ace mod, we already had the selection wheel.
@@CheeseyCHV Yeah i partly agree with this, to me the movement compared to Arma 3 just feels weird and the guns feel weaker or just sound weaker. The Arsenal is the worst though so chaotic and messy, Arma 3 Arsenal was definitely the best.
How? There are two important things you can't do right now - swith weapon to left side and advanced prone positions (you have leaning while prone though). Important things, sure, but far from essential. Everything else is there and it's implemented simply better and more in depth. What are you talking about, really?
Once they add in AI being able to drive vehicles, I can then play the editor for ever. but without vehicles being usable its very limited now
They've made a short video showing the AI driving. It looks promising
@@OhertRasmus I’ll look that up mate!
Awesome to hear from Ivan, thanks for the insight into Reforger and the look into the future of the Arma platform. I appreciate the streamlined controls as it helps bring more new players in without them needing to learn/map 100 keys and functions to be able to fully participate.
Oh boy! New Arma reforger video!
Well at least we know tracked vehicles will be in amra 4
Great video ! Thanks Ivan
Thank you for the open honesty!
its kinda sad to hear how backblast probably wont be added, but im super excited for artillery and the simple destruction as he said, artillery especially though because of the cold war era technology.
Will PC players be getting custom controller Axis (Wheels and joysticks) support? All these lovely Vehicle physics are wasted in the keyboard.
@BAwesome here! Thank you so much for answering so many of my many questions!^^ I'm infinitely greatful for the "cruelty" and I love the added immersion :) Keep on rocking! o7
very nice setting of talking about the Arma Reforger. loved it!! And nice to see you all have fun! I do wen i play your game! that is the main reason! Keep stong and peace out!
I agree with this, playing since CWC 2001 and through every Arma version I find Reforgers control and movement system much more intuitive and a real evolution, there is still a lot of stuff needing improving in the project but I think the infantry controls at least are great.
Buen trabajo!
Nice Bow , can anyone you tell me which one its it and when we get bow's in reforger?
Can we also be able to fully learn land navigation and use protractors because I just look at town signs and landscapes as my guide
For better balance:
1. Replace RPG-7 with RPG-18.
2. Reduce damage resistance of armored personnel carriers.
Special thanks for the console version, I don’t know what I would play if it weren’t for Arma and Dayz!
Were the forests in Arma Reforger inspired by the forest in this video?
Much of the landscape in Arma Reforger is directly inspired by that of the Czech Republic. This is the forest near the Mnisek pod Brdy branch of BI, where Arma Reforger was primarily designed.
Great, archery update
This is DA MAN! Yes, play it, no cheats like magic-maps and UI!! It add so much gameplay and team-play, even for veterans. Good luck with Reforger and Arma4 - we will support wonderful work of your team!
Only when we get an altis sized map and an Ai that can use vehicles that we'll see if the engine is truly more capable that the previous one. One thing is to look prettier and other is to support the same features at high framerates. Right now vanilla Reforger has perhaps what, 25% of the content and features of vanilla Arma 3? so under those conditions of course it should run 75% faster or better. A truly fair comparison would be when there is content and feature parity between both titles
Because it has 2 helicopters instead of 8 it should run 75% faster? What?
Do the Ai can use the Helis? Does it has ai driven Tanks? What about mortars? Artillery? Naval assets? How about map size 1/4 of altis? How many factions does it has? How many uniforms and weapons? Arma 3 has 4 times anything Reforger has and don't even get me started with the CDLC assets@@zimms87
I would see a video about someone from QA Engineer departament) I think Bohemia has a pretty unique approach with dealing bugs, with a help of the community. On the feedback tracker, there are tons of bug reports every day, and Greez, and others testers monitoring this very thoroughly
Many thanks for your work.
I would really like you to add boats and parachutes. We are on islands, and we miss it a lot.
Parachutes are a must imo
Yeah, Single Player content ❤
Quando eles aprenderem a ARTE de mostrarem o progresso das coisas e que isso acalma os animos do jogadores e melhora diminui a cobrança em cima deles, AI SIM AS COISAS FICAM SHOW!!!
Anyone know if there will be TrackIR or 6Dof support?
Lets get "Auto-Run" back in control and "Auto-Drive" eventually for those long solo traverses. I always thought it would be nice to let vehicles auto-drive on roadways in between marked waypoints. Btw what camera/overlays is this video shot in? Looks great!
Well I never drive in arma series ,even during flashpoint days ( except few scripted missions in campaign where you were forced to drive )
The fact that BI considers SP to be somewhat playable in Reforger made ma happy. I'm now slightly more confident that A4 won't run from SP like other tactical shooters do.
Arma reforger is ma favourite game!
Please add a function for selecting a location for installing mods on the ssd
keep up the good work so excited for what's coming!!!
Will there be 128 players in the vanilla conflict mode??? Because I wanna play vanilla conflict with 128 players and I’m getting tired of playing the same servers like the Vietnam server and the darkgru servers it would be cool if there was 128 players in conflict vanilla conflict mode
Still no release windows for the PlayStation platform
Arma Reforger is so amazing! What I would like for more stable preformance on mp servers and Official servers with up around 80 players
"Uh maybe in the future..."
Every answer was either no or creatively... no??
finally releases arma reforger for ps5
So,basiclly nothing is ready ,and we have to wait for another 3-5 years
“Uh” - Ivan
Hotas support would nice to get addressed
Though these answers don't fill me with any real confidence..
CDLC is the future get creators involved more they know what we want.
Are we getting bows in game?
Hope not. Devs nowadays just add random shit nobody asked for and expect ppl to like it
I wouldnt mind bow in DayZ but seems like there are some issues with it.
guys, youy rocks! thank you bohemia for the new engine for arma
TLDR “maybe”
I'm most interested in when the game will be released on PlayStation 5?
I’m right with you bro
is Arma reforger worth buying yet? Or should I stick to Arma 3?
Arma Reforgor (The) Content
Armba
We don't need a tutorial singleplayer campaign. We need a better editor with better triggers and scripts, so the community can make singleplayer and COOP missions on their own. And obviously an AI that can handle these triggers.
great game, just want ai driving and better ai in general and less compound clearing. there is nothing more annoying when pulling up tp said compound shooting a couple of lifless ai and moving on to the next. combat should be interesting and dynamic but in this games case its a bit repetitive.
24 years later and AI are still...problematic. Imagine current day AI playing the AI side :D That said, best gaming franchise in the universe!
Please devs remake OFP campaign! Even sell it as DLC, I don't care.
they are making a OFP sequel set in 1989, looks like they will rebuild the entire Malden archipelago & brg back general Guba & other characters
I want my money back. That arrow in the thumbnail isn't even broken
"dumbing down the controls"... you mean making them functional and modern. No please I really enjoy tapping 'c' to change between combat walk/jog and 'cmd+c' to change to tactical pace hen hit 'c', but it doesn't do anything cos I'm still in tactical pace. Sure bro, A3 controls are really great
Arma reforger is really good I spent 300 hours in the game
I am at 488 hours, I love the game, cant stop playing it. Takes me back to my operation flashpoint demo.
I got 720 hours bro
Theres already bmp mods there is no reason for them to be out of the scope for the game
Yes but all these mods are using invisible wheels and not tracks. Tracks are just for looks on these mods. That's why you can't turn on the spot. Sorry for ruining it for you ..
The only issue about reforger is that it’s graphically not optimized for console, honestly doing 40/50 fps on next gen isn’t that good. I still play the game and enjoy it but adding those 20fps more, even if difficult, would be the perfect final touch. I know some players wouldn’t like it, but the only solution would be to make graphics even lower, so some details should be removed(for example buildings or veichle internals/suspension, or making buildings with not every room accesible like dayz). I think most of the players tho would prefer just reslistic mechanics/scenarios with fluid gameplay than max graphics.
2:35 That's such a copout answer, Arma 2 had PIP/hud elements like GPS and that wasn't set in the near future, it was set in 2000-2004
I like the new hud.
Makes it more hardcore
Playing reforger right now
You and 6 other People
@@HarryA3Gon PC but Xbox thousands
Bow and arrow for arma please! 😄
cpu optimization guys
It is optimised by GPU now. And runs better than a lot of games that look worse
@@ronnytotten9292 sounds good, ARMA3 was by far the worst optimized PC only game ive ever played.
Need AI drivers for vehicles.
They have a video showing AI driving
They have a video showing AI driving
The fact that jumping is still in the game is disappointing 😔
😂😂
does anyone work here anymore
FIRST
Good for you
with the console community joining arma and the dumbing down of control, i dont see why BI cant start hiring RHS to be a part of the team when they have basically been making their game for them for free for years now. seems like a really huge missed opprotunity when you have the people capable to to the job and on top of that have the motivation todo it for free in their spare time.
This dudes good at yapping and saying soon
y'all need to fix the download speed shit on arma reforger doesn't matter if you have good internet cause this game will only download 5mb to 0kb like that's a fucking joke especially when it comes to pc
I don't have any issues with the download speed. Are you sure it's not just a hardware bottleneck?
Add T-90 and mi-28 then i'll buy it. Plus get the RHS mod team to work with you.
Darkgru better
Bro, neither of these systems were in active service until after the collapse of the Soviet Union. Reforger is set in 1989. It would make no sense to add a tank that wasn’t even produced until 1992 and a helicopter that didn’t see widespread use until 2006. They’re doing the right thing keeping a smaller and more refined scope for Reforger. The things they’ve implemented so far are really well done!
T-90!? Reforger is set in 1989!
@@glennpeterson1357 Okay, T72 then but that doesn't stop them for creating content set in the future.
@@WiseOne93 honestly, I agree. But BI have clearly stated that tracked vehicles are out of scope for Reforger. There are stacks of tracked vehicle mods though (including RHS)
Kinda tired from hearing "eventually" all the time.. I get it, not everyone focusing on Reforger, but jezus. This is taking the road of DayZ.. Players payed, now try to keep them excited, 3 months of nothing, then update,m repeat.
Updates have been incredibly fast compared to how DayZs progress waa
@@ronnytotten9292dayz was finished in its mod form (IMO) before BIS even hired rocket. shouldn't a mod for a game developed by people outside of BIS progress slower than the main franchise anyways? and really if reforger is supposed to be an arma game then no its progressing way slower, reforger didn't have aircraft for the longest time (helicopters were awesome in dayz) and it still doesn't have tanks... its not an ArmA game, its not true combined arms.
do the other developers working for this guy also get to do bow hunting trips or?... hey bohemia I don't think you're treating your workers fairly, seems like you have a bunch of middle managers that are only interested in the corporate paycheck and getting a documentary made about them, not actually developing a game
🤣🤣🤣🤣
I can't even game stupid GPU is broken crap manufacturing nowadays guys take care tho soon mohahahaha soon reforger
Whole lot of nothing but "maybe in future".
Well... Yeah, but that's a classic BIS stuff isn't?
i wish they were perfect like you.
Spoken like a true child, Jesus, and the comments in the video too. Whiny and bratty. No wonder devs don't give a shit about our input
Cry a river
@@Hayokaegoclownoperation flashpoint came out in 2001, arma 3 came out in 2013, reforger doesn't even have tracked vehicles and its 2024. Lets be real, BIS was never perfect, but they sure aren't developing games anymore. their pacing is completely gone and with vids like this you'd think ivan is the only person working on the game
I beg of you to change the spawn system. I wish that you’d only be able to spawn from coastal bases only. I highly dislike how the spawn system works right now because it greatly discourages you from trying to take a base that has enemy players on it because they can infinitely respawn. You guys are doing a great job on the game but I hate how the respawn system works. If the coastal base spawn only option is not possible, I think if you make it so there is a “front line” where you can’t respawn on bases within a certain proximity of enemy bases. This will incentivize planing and make dying and lives more valuable. Also it will incentivize use of the helicopters and transport trucks and building support structures around the map. Thank you so much for the great work you’ve done so far and I’ve made many friends on arma reforger. I’m a huge fan of the game but the game flow right now is painful.
На кой черт нам надо знать, что он умеет стрелять из лука?!
yeah, console is dumbing down the game for us. GREAT
While PC master race are having trouble getting what they pay for cough cough crap manufacturing quality cough
@@ruvanefriebus-cv6tdit's also the style of player.. there's been a huge difference in quality of people you are playing with in Arma Reforger vs any PC only game of similar design. Am example is Squad. Everybody plays as a team on squad, there are commanders and squad lead and it really is a game of strategy. If Reforger was played like that it would change so much. It really comes down to the majority of Reforger players being Xbox gamers. Brings me directly back to cod4 lobbies from when I had a console last. We need our nerds in Reforger
@@ronnytotten9292 I was complaining about shoddy manufacturing not the fact that Xbox gamers play Reforger my GPU died on day 1 so I'm a bit pissy
@@ruvanefriebus-cv6tdWhat gpu?
Main issue is, how much it will be downgrade for mechanics and controls in comparison to arma 3. I dont care about public lobbies, since I play closed server with my group only, on arma 3@@ruvanefriebus-cv6td
PC players .. Cry more 😂
Who cry are cancer patient
agree mikel. sweaty pc nerds so mad about console getting added. they dont realise this game would be dead without it. im a pc player 😆
keep scamming yourself and playing a game thats lacking features from its 11 year old predecessor there buddy, arma 2 was one of the games that made me a PC gamer and while its fine if BIS wants to make Reforger the next COD, but just know, you aren't playing a real ArmA game. OFP inspired an entire genre by itself, Arma 2 created DayZ and battle royale. Reforger will always and forever be a footnote as that one time BIS sat on their hands instead of making pivotal games that literally changed the world.
@@killsalot78 how long did it take you to type this 😆
scam game
How?
Being Dead Serious if there's something that's not at least Similar to the Artillery Computer in Arma 4 I will not play
Can't properly downscale this game when playing on a 4K monitor, it runs like dog shit. I bought the game and played for 2 hours trying to get it to optimize properly. Cant get over 40fps. Dog shit optimization in this game. I also hear it runs like shit on XBOX. How about optimizing the game first?
I play on series s and besides flying and using long range scopes it runs great.
Game runs fine on series x for me, been playing modded servers on ukraine and korengal Valley maps
@@colinq9697 same I like the NA Ukraine/ru server then I play on dargru 4 and 5.
You can't optimize a game, which is not feature complete. Iam not here to defend the game but some players cry about things, they have no idea.
