playsation have a lot hackers

Why don't you just disable crossplay between console and PC let the console guys play with console guys and pc with pc it would be much better.

Dumbed down, simplified and made for a more casual audience Arma. Lets hope that Arma 4 wont be made for as large of an audience as possible, at the expense of complexity, realism, authenticity etc.

Server owners can already configure their servers to enable or disable crossplay compatibility directly within their server settings.

Nothing is "dumbed down" — it's just made more streamlined. The focus is still on keeping things complex and realistic, and as things evolve, they’ll only keep getting better.

so does this mean PS5 players cant play on community servers with mods? cuz they have no mod support ♥♥♥♥♥♥ sony and there terms and services i brought a pc to play games like arma and dayz with mods have not touched my ps5 since.

Very exciting i'm gonna pick it up for my wife. I have like 764 hours in this i'm a little sad she cant play on the server WCS i usually do because of mods hopefully SONY allows mods ASAP. Huge L on there part cause the modded servers are way more populated and just overall a better time with admins and moderators watching over. For the time being i guess i will just play vanilla servers with her until SONY decides to stop being a big ass baby over mods.

Now I get to ♥♥♥♥ on the playstation users, Awesome!

no mortars yet?

This is BS with all due respect and we both know it. Movement system is dumbed down, weapon handling is dumbed down, flight model is dumbed down, stance system is dumbed down, UI is dumbed down, editors are dumbed down etc etc. The list goes on. If something was just streamlined, and not dumbed down, it would retain the functionality it had before the streamlining, but would just work more fluidly. Thats not the case with Reforger and anyone who has played it extensively (and the older titles too ofc) can tell this.

I started with OFP back in 2001 and Reforger is a disgrace. Its not a bad game on its own, but it doesnt deserve to carry the Arma name. Lets hope BI does a U-turn with Arma 4.

some bs from you man. I'm also a ofp fun from the start, and Reforger is a great step forward, yes, there are some issues to be fixed, features to be added, tanks planes artillery etc. but overall it's awesome. The top hardcore aspect was always achieved by mods anyway(ACE, TFAR etc) and so it will be with A 4 and this one

Is that why everything is kinda screwed up today? Some servers have that red triangle (unreachable), others are very laggy, even though they're just around the corner from where I live and usually run flawlessly.

100% disagree. And im also playing since OFP, never owned a console nor i intend to. And im alos not a fan of crossplay in general, due to various reasons. BUT - when Reforger gets the AI and editor from ArmA3 its a 100% upgrade. Now it already feels so much more immersive than ArmA3. How the PvP is done in detail is not my cup of tea, but the rest is already pretty awsome.
The streamlined controls are so MUCH better than ArmA3s. Custom controls in ArmA3 + custom ACE controls is a fcking cancer to setup. Im glad that Reforger doesnt require big adjustments, the controls are so well designed. And the most immersive controls ever in any game on top. The interaction with gear and the environment is just mindblowingly well done and stands out from anything ive ever seen. The jank of ArmA3 doesnt even come close to that!
The sound... do i need to talk about that? Again immmersive asf, couldnt have been done better. U can hear from the reverb of the voice when someone is in the building next to u. When someone is using the radio next to u, u hear the voice in ur own radiochannel AND the voice from the player next to u(yes i also played with tfar for years already). This alone is immersion deluxe and i salute my hat to the folks at BIS how well designed and executed all this is.

Been an OFP player since the first demo 20+ years ago. Thank you. This feels like a momentous day.
