400 hours in arma 3. Just picked up reforger on sale yesterday and dam its good. Same amazing arma gunplay but with better graphics and it runs a hell of a lot smoother.

5,532 hours in Arma 3. Just paid for a rtx 4070 oc to play this game. Cant wait for it to arrive. Squad will be much better too. I just turned 50!

Picked up Reforger in Sept 2023 and as a console player it’s my first Arma experience. I don’t regret buying this game at all..

Bohemia is not committed to adding content to reforger, they said that from the beginning. Its a stepping stone to Arma 4 and more or less, a game to keep Arma on people's minds in the microwave era in my opinion. But the modding community is doing their thing like all Arma titles. Reforger is good and in due time Arma 4 will be great.

Nice overview - been playing the ArmA series for 15 years now. Pathway to ArmA 4 is looking promising!

Reforger is a NATO exercise code name from 1988/89, 129,000 NATO troop took part during the cold war era in Germany. Thats where the name comes from.

This is my first Arma game. As a lover of anything military since birth, ive quickly fallen in love with this game. Certainly not for all. Dunno if I’d recommend it to the regular COD player.. it takes time to position yourself, and find combat. It’s not all about kills and being top Chad ya know. This video made me wanna play so bad… I’m hopping in after work to do some supply runs. 👍🏼

Reforger has been a ton of fun and glad it's getting so much love. Big fan of Arma over the years and in just the few hours playing on official and modded servers it's really made me want to stick with reforger for a while just due to the improved systems. Here's hoping that more DarkGru servers get spun up because they're full any time I'm playing. I should note, the only issue I've had so far has been the inventory system and not being able to move things around, drop items, or pickup items.

Great overview of the game, and it's great you branching out and covering some Mil-Sim games because you picked the right one, I believe it's actual history in the making since we are here at the inception of the Enfusion engine along with seeing this progress all the way up to ARMA 4! ..............Imagine what this engine will eventually be able to do if it's just getting started!

Stayed away from this game at the start because it was pricey and people were saying it's buggy. Now, I just bought the game last week and it was because I saw some NEW good viral reforger videos on Youtube. No longer was I hearing "it's unplayable" or "it's super buggy". I saw people having fun and recommending the game to others, so I got it!

Was wondering if I should get reforger but you definitely sold me on it. Thank you.

Nice video man, good overview of the state of the game

I love the animation aspect of the game. I like that the ATACK phone actually pulls out of your pocket and you actually use your hands to look at it and it’s not just stuck on your screen and you use your mouse to move it everywhere. I hate that. And then the aspect of me being able to play game without my frames dropping at all unless we’re just playing GM. in another thing with the bacon, loadout editor, you can edit your helmets, usually depending on what month you can edit your guns, you can change the barrels, the uppers the suppressor etc! There’s actual customization you can do unlike. You couldn’t do three because they just didn’t have it and no one made a mod for it (that i know of) some of the helmets you can put on like 7 to 8 different pairs of night vision, and one of them I think has like a thermal monocular and then one night vision monocular so you can switch back-and-forth from thermal vision, which is really really cool.

I bought this game for my series x yesterday. Its the most fun ive had in a while. I was playing earlier and holding a road by a base we had and waiting for supplies to arrive and i saw someone walking near me, so i shouted for them to identify themselves as they had the same uniform as me. They killed me as it was an enemy player who stole and wore our own uniform. It was so cool. I totally didnt expect it 😂

As someone who played Arma 2, Arma 3 and now Reforger, I enjoy Reforger much more than Arma 3. Yes, Arma 3 is a much, much more complex beast but the lack of PvP in the main servers turned me away. It is most often some KOTH server that turns into COD light where you die 40 times until you reach your destination (a moving point that is pretty small). Reforger has PvP out of the box and the fights are more decentralized on the map. It isn't perfect but it is mostly fun

The reason for the major drop off in the first week was the server issues and disconnects, that has id say been 98% resolved in Reforger only bolstedred by the fact they increased server capacity up to 48 in official servers . The mods and new patches have bought people back to try again but the server stability is whats keeping them there . Looking forward to the next patch this week with flares / ai commanding and remote explosives!

The w.c.s servers are really good aswell have had a ton of fun playing them. playing from central texas and the eu servers feel fine with high ping besides the occasional DC.

By any chance, do you know what camo or kind of soldier that is in the thumbnail?
