Summary: I feel like there isn't enough to shoot in ArmA 3, I wish it actually had the standard us\ru rifles. Given they are fundamentally the most respected and most important weapons needed here. So far, there has not truly been a mod to give all of the stuff we're missing back to ArmA 3. Here is my point for being angry about A3, I just want more to use elsewise the game is simply straight up boring. This also goes with the aircraft, and missing humvees + UAZ or Vodniks.

This is quite an amusing debate and one typically found in a 9th grade playground. From what I can decipher from all the drivel, is essentially a units or armies ability to function autonomosuly when the chain of command breaks down or is absent.

Some forces are designed from the bottom up. They can make a cohesive force without formal strcuture. The Mongol army was famous for this. It allowed them to take the initiaitve and not rely on a convuleted chain of command.

Other armies , most noteably the German and British perform very badly when there are no officers or defined orders. So in part its a question of culture, tradition and doctrine within that military system.

wow.... funny thread. ^_^

Ursprungligen skrivet av Theo Hardmeier:

Its the skill of the tank crew that counts unless the tank is a very old model.
Just because one tank has slightly better this or slightly worse that means nothing.

Until I see a video of a bunch of modern tanks having a shoot off neither is better that the other.

^ this

when the crew doesn'T know their machine and how it works, they can be defeated by some untrained peasant that knows how to point an RPG in the right direction.

[Theo Hardmeier]

That is actually interesting. Though ill stick to throwing grenades over walls and in buildings instead of shooting through them.

i was in the Army for 3 years i only ever had an M16 Jam on me 1 time in that period. Just sayin. if you take care of it the M16 is pretty reliable

Dont lie like a fool now. Any sand in a M16 it jams. Get it wet, it jams. I know how well it jams ive used one myself. also if the M16 were that reliable every army in the world would be using it when the AK-47 and AK-94 seem to be popular choices.

Also if yours did not jam it means you cleaned it far too much as the army taught you to do, but when i weapon needs that much cleaning and still jams to sand and water, its unreliable.

That link is the M16 jaming under tests, not a pretty sight.

well like i said if you take care of it it is reliable, sure if you don't clean it it will jam. Again 3 years of Active Duty service i only ever Jammed once

[SquirrelzQL]

that is really cool dwarden, I honostly didn't see this in ArmA 3 I hope there is a link to this mod that shows the vectors. And I definately am siked to hear that there is going to be more weapons, variety is what makes simulators better :)

Also, the standard M16 they are using in that video is the oldest design. Anyone who still takes a vietnam era weapon and tries to compare it to a modernized kolashnikov is trolling. By now there are better versions of this M16 varient, and this video only shows the least effective. The only hard thing about unjamming a M16 is removing a stuck casing or an active round without chopping your finger off or shooting it off. The kolashnikov, I am sure if it had a jam that big thick hunk of metal slamming into your hand when retrieving a stuck casing couldn't feel to great. On the other hand, if the Russians in this video were trying to dis our US Standard Rifle... they probably also put a dry fire round in the magazine there to make it jam on purpose.

I love the bullet penetration system in game, since it allows real world descions, like picking the proper cover for incoming fire, hiding in that scape tin sided shack aint gonna stop much, and when you hear the hammering of HMG fire better grab some stonewall for cover.

I have used this aspect many times to deal with lurkers hiding in insufficent building cover..waiting for somebody to come in the door so they can shoot him...we just pour mg fire at prone level and look for the bloody mist.

Well done BI. :)

[Santa Six]

Exactly, less time to make seperate model variants. More time to make different weapons. :^P

Also A3 uses a new system with weapon attachments so they can be modified into all of their variants (and a whole pile of tacticlol configurations) , where as A2 has all the variants of a weapon as individual unmodifiable weapons.
