Anit-terrorist Gamemode
Is there a gamemode where you play as an anti-terrorist group rooting out an insurgency? Something like the opposite of Antistasi or Vindicta? Kind of like Xcom but for Arma?

There is no anti-terrorist game mode, but there are campaigns that include insurgents and drug lords (from the Laws of War DLC). You can also configure ALiVE so that civilians can be questioned and/or taken into custody.

It would be pretty simple to make an anti-terrorist type mission, but there is no specific anti-terrorist game mode.

Darn, thanks for the reply. I really was hoping I could have crush an insurgency as the soviets or quash american resistance as the marine corp.

There is a game mode called Insurgency, you play as BLUFOR and you clear grids of Independents, find intel, destroy caches, and do side missions. Unfortunately no one plays this game mode but occasionally you get 15 or 20 people on a server. I use to love this game mode back on Arma 2, there was this server called MILGO Insurgency that used ACE mod and was always full with 60 people 50 blufor vs 10 opfor plus AI.

There is no game mode called Insurgency, and there never has been. These are all the possible multiplayer game types:
  • Apex = Campaign - Apex Protocol
  • CTF = Capture The Flag
  • Coop = Cooperative Mission
  • CTI = Capture The Island
  • DM = Deathmatch
  • EndGame = End Game
  • Escape = Escape
  • FF = Flag Fight
  • Hold = Hold Location
  • KOTH = King Of The Hill
  • LastMan = Last Man Standing
  • Patrol = Combat Patrol
  • RPG = Role-Playing Game
  • Sandbox = Sandbox
  • SC = Sector Control
  • Support = Support
  • Survive = Survival
  • TDM = Team Deathmatch
  • Vanguard = Vanguard
  • Warlords = Warlords
  • Zeus = Zeus
There is no Insurgency or Anti-Terrorist game mode.

Type "Insurgency" into the search bar you will find it buddy.

You can create an insurgency or anti-terrorist mission, but there is no such game type in Arma III and there never has been, so don't give people bogus information.

A game mode is defined as a distinct configuration that varies gameplay and affects how other game mechanics behave. Insurgency is a game mode, just because it isn't in the default search terms that you listed doesn't make it not one. Stop spreading false information, okay buddy?

Game modes are defined by the CfgMPGameTypes. You are spreading misinformation.
Cant we just say insurgency is a "community made game mode" then everyones happy?

Guess that game mode list came from bi....i find it kinda funny how they list cti as a game mode.... that hasnt ever been in arma 3 but was in arma 2.

Then they list sector control which does exist but has no vanilla scenarios for it. Requires you to go make one in the editor.

If fact out of the whole list i think the only stuff with actual vanilla hostable scenarios is...

Apex protocol
Escape
Patrol
Warlords

What vanilla survival/ctf/last man standing scenario is there?

The MP Game Types weren't created just for BI to use. They were never intending, for example, to run Zeus servers. But that doesn't mean the player's can't run those game types.

Much of the code in Arma III comes from Arma II. Just like a lot of the code from Arma II comes from Arma and Operation Flashpoint. Some code goes back at least 19 years.

Insurgency is a Configurable Multiplayer Game Type, it is not a mission. A mission is, "Destroy this, kill that", which insurgency has within it but is not what it only is, it is a game mode. What are talking about stop spreading fake news.

Now we know you to be a troll. Deliberately presenting false information. I just posted the entire list of configurable MP game types from BI's own website, and "Insurgency" is not among them. I hope you enjoy your new reputation as a troll. You certainly earned it.

To clarify the matter, Co27 Insurgency and BMR Insurgency are technically scenarios. They fall under the "Capture the Island" gamemode.

Bravo you posted OFFICIAL game modes, you want a medal? You certainly earned it. Just because it isn't an official or popular game mode doesn't make it not one. So you would call Insurgency a mission then, can you give me examples of these "missions" that are like Insurgency? If Insurgency is a mission but is also configurable then I guess that makes KOTH a mission too.
