Best way to introduce someone into ArmA III?

[Vectif]

Hello!

I've played ArmA III for about some years now, since end of 2013. I've had plenty of friends who I've shown around and got into the game and etcetera, while some liked it, and some didn't: I have very specific taste when it comes to ArmA III, as in, what do I play, the gamemodes, etcetera.

So I was wondering, what do you guys think is the most digestible way to get into ArmA or the best way to show them around?

I'd really appreciate (and I'm looking for) gamemodes or workshop missions / campaigns you guys would recommend. Or things I could show him like tutorials and etcetera. Since I don't wanna bombard them with too much information in future instances. If it has mods, that's fine, vanilla or modded is fine, but something that'd give a good aspect of the game or how good it can be.

I probably already know MOST of the things you guys will recommend, but what I don't know is which ones should I be using to introduce the person into ArmA with.

Thanks you very much for your time, and many thanks beforehand to all those who'll contribute productively :)

Kindest regards,
-Rhaonoa.

Most people that play it who are warvets are bipolar/personality disorder with PTSD.

I remember that I started with ♥♥♥♥♥♥ self-created COOP missions together with 2 friends.
But first, you should show them what Arma has to offer - Losi's Armory is a solid and simple sandbox to do that. Then continue with COOP misisons that aren't too hard.

go in editor. place down squad, make zeus module for each of your friends, write in PUID for each of your friends( , include all addons and unofficial ones). Click on attributes menu, multiplayer, disable ai, set respawn to custom position in the tick box.

Double click the squad, tick playable. Click markers tab, select empty marker, put it somewhere you want to spawn, call it Respawn_West_One in the variable name box.

Drop down a supply box from the empty objects menu and double click it. Paste the following inside the init box:
0 = ["AmmoboxInit",[this,true]] spawn BIS_fnc_arsenal;

Save mission and export to multiplayer.

Host a mission.

Tick UPNP.

Invite your pals and enjoy your sandbox to learn everything the game has to offer. (press y to access zeus)
