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.

First of all,

I really don't get this weapon fetish. What's up with you guys? Why the hell you need a M1014 in ARMA? Shooting doors or pellets? Anyhow...

Second:
No offense, but there are plenty of weapon mods out there.

Try the French R3F Mod - it is great.


I am really a bit tired about all those plebs checking into the steam forum - without even...ah crap. whatever. :)

"I wish it actually had the standard us\ru rifles. Given they are fundamentally the most respected and most important weapons needed here." bad fallacy. Were set in 2030's the M1A1 was created in 1962, its long since past its prime. Also the AK as well has been remade a ton o times. The weapons are fine. Ive used M1A1 through A4 and they all jam with the slightest sand in them.

[Theo Hardmeier]

Before someone complains about lack of weapons think for a second.
Do you actually use all those weapons?

And second thing, you are listing assault rifle variants as a seperate weapon each.
That is plain and utter retarded.
If you listed every possible variant of arma 3 assault rifles guess how much you will have?

[CorDra2011]

Firstly, that isn't a complete list of everything that will be in Arma 3, more weapons, vehicles, etc. will come in due time. Until then just relay on the one thing Arma is known for...it's modding community.

[fight9]

The attachments are modular now. You listed the same Arma 2 rifle 3 times each but only listed the Arma 3 variants once. Stop doing that and Arma 2 only had 9 assult rifles. It's really not that much more than Arma 3.

[RLeeErmey]

Problem is you have this mod and that mod and soon its all farked.

They really should have included the models and objects for all of the arma2 stuff into the game. It might not have looked as nice but at least they are there. I mean it is the same engine for the most part. Give the babies their bottle and they won't cry.

[Dr.B.Banzai]

most of the weapon mods work fine, with no conflicts, its the more advanced scripting that some mods add that cause problems..addons are pretty straightforward.

But no matter how much you give some people there will always be something else they want.

As it stands with 3-4 of the better weapon mods on Armaholic, I have all the AK and M4 varients I will ever need.

I mainly want some G36 family weapons so when I put german troops in a senario, I can equip them correctly..I'm silly like that. :)

My point exactly... Lee Ermey is exactly right on top of the situation. You see the thing is, of course there are a few mods out there. But each mod has quite a few flaws, going to nearly all of the online servers will kick you for wanting to use a variety of weapons. In a matter of opinion, I've read everyone's post here. You're all giving valid points, but just where does my point stand here. It's in between everyone's opinions really... the thing is that the game isn't nearly as convenient as ArmA 2 when it comes down to the amount of released and included content. This is a big problem here, I only can hope Bohemia Interactive does something about this when the campaign comes or maybe an expansion.

[fight9]

Arma 3 is just a baby right now. Expect the game to mature a lot in its life. This is the kind of game you play for years. Look at all the people still playing Arma 2. Arma 2 had FIVE content expansions packs. You could even play those packs content for FREE (albeit with lower textures), so to not split the community.

[H3@d5hO7]

They should have just put the phaser in the game.

[Sgt. Flaw]

Yea you def. listed the all variants of A2's weapons....not to mention the expansions and DLC A2 has had since release...
Think before you post....not a valid arguement...at all.

[Mr Conspicuous]

The game lacks in almost every department besides visuals. I really wish I could play it and enjoy it like I enjoyed Arma 2.

[Jesus]

gimme lee enfield and im a happy man.

[washu73]

ARMA 2 has a lot of weapons because it has 3 expansion packs worth of content on top of the base game. A3 will most likely have a similarly long list of weapons in a couple of years when it has 3 expansion packs.

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.

Its a milsim, what do you expect?

Arma 3 is a joke. My game broke after Dling mods to try and actually make a game as BI cant be bothered. So uninstalled and probably wont bother reinstalling. Its a broken, unfinished piece of xxxx and its not worthy of my collection. .
