Reviews
Everything you’ve ever heard about this game is true. The bugs, the poor-optimization (which has greatly improved, and I suspect most complaints come from people who don’t know/care how to adjust the game settings). That being said, there’s a reason why so many players in the review section have 1000+ hours in spite of this. You will simply will not find a game like this anywhere else.
Now, some people don’t care much for the realism, and prefer action-movie esque shooters. That’s fine. However, this game shines at gritty realistic firefights. There’s nothing glorious about shouting contact reports into the radio, bounding cover to cover, and hoping the next round doesn’t have your name on it, but when you’re finally back on the bird with your buddies headed home, and you finally feel the sense of relief wash over you. No other game has that.
Having accumulated over 13400 hours in-game with Arma 3, I would certainly recommend it to others.
If you enjoy tactical shooters and playing online with friends, it’s well worth a look; especially if you appreciate a high dose of military realism!
Drove a car into a stick at 300Km/h, preceded to enter orbit of earth.
Upon re-entry our squad missed our target and instead landed into the middle of the ocean, without causalities.
I decided to take it upon myself to find Atlantis, however i never did returned.
Two squad members managed to swim the 1000m to shore wearing full battle gear and carrying multiple assault rifles.
Very realistic simulator. 10/10 would orbit again

At this point, i reached 4K hours in this game.
Still not bored with the game thanks to a wide variety of mods available.
And that’s really the power of this game the mods.
Thanks to the mods your able to play as a soldier/police/firefighter/civilian/EMT and so on.
This is a game within a game!
So there is a big change you find something that you like to play!
I spent several years in the army and I gotta say this game is spot on with the training and atmosphere the military provides. I love how difficult this game is, and I love all of the different features the game provides. It is NOT easy to hit a target with an assault rifle from 300 yards in real life, and this game seems to match that same difficulty. Fatigue is a real thing and it seriously hinders your accuracy in real life…Arma 3 makes you stop and catch your breath if you run too far or carry too much gear, or you will have a hard time hitting your target. Enemies are not stupid and they have great vision. I was engaged by two enemies from about 200 yards away and they were using bushes for cover as well as 3-5 second rushes when moving. The AI is more advanced than the average taliban are in real life. haha :p Given my love for the military and for videogames, this one is definitely one of my favorites of all time 😀
A true open world experience, and with one of the best modding communities in gaming, Arma 3 can be what ever game you want it to be. From true military simulation to dinosaur hunting, Arma gives players and content creators an truly amazing platform to play with.
