Mil-sims are either for fucking around in or absolute control freak retards. Prove me wrong.

I have fun playing squad and project reality in only a semi-serious fashion, but idk if they really count as milsims.
Never played but IRL milsims are definitely like this.
. Prove me wrong.
The problem with squad is there are so few servers and several of them are run by clans that stack the teams and then proceed to min-max every meta the game has. I only play on a select few servers because of this. It's sad really, to think that people think playing this way is fun.
Yeah, I played once and everyone was an idiot except me. What a bunch of losers.
How can we prove you wrong when you’re right?
Milsims are for 15 year old try-hards and those dudes that “have never served, but would die for muh country.” I still play online with a couple buddies I went to school with who are military. None of them use “military tactics and discipline” online, because they’re not that retarded.
4500+ hours in A3. Can confirm.
Jesus krist get the fuck over yourselves you fucking ass canyons.
>arma is for loser faggot teenagers except for me because when I play them I just do it because I think it's fun, please don't call me a faggot I'm not a faggot I'm straight seriously guys I'm just a straight guy who likes sucking my best friend's penis and rectum
And then when you complain about it not being fun they tell you to "git-gud." I can't stand people that play video games seriously. It's a fuck of a lot more fun when everyone is casual about it.
Arma 2 is better.
+1000 hours in Arma 2
I miss dayz
The control freaks wouldn't be so bad if they didn't always get btfo by the people fucking around. Then cry about losing.
Fuck off James
Join a clan and start playing against other clans. Most of them in squad aren't serious and just a community to play with the same people. Don't knock it till ya try it
Im the bane of milsim units in arma. I have personally ruined every one I have ever been in. Mostly because I actually like to have fun and dont conform to the retarded rules and "training" they make you do.
Last time I staged a revolution against multicam and the unit disbanded because of the fallout.
Is it goober posting time?
>game doesnt have team scramble after matches
F
>teams are always stacked
>if you get stuck on the shit team you always get fucked
>matches might be close 1 or 2 times, but one team always gets filtered to have all the shit players
>if you get stuck on the shit team its entirely unfun
>if you get on the good team its entirely unfun and just turkey shooting
they are good games but too dependant on 99 other people not being retarded
>ever playing online
>not just using mods and making missions in the editor to your own amusement
>ArmA
>mil-sim
pick one and one only
>Playing Arma
>Walk somewhere away from briefing

>Laugh and then talk to retard with anime sound board
>everyone laughs retard sulks back to real life were no one listens to him
I miss playing DayZ during the first month it was out. Then summer happened and all the kiddies flocked to it thanks to stream-fags.
it's stone cold now, being played by exactly nobody, if that's any consolation
I hate playing in teams/multiplayer, with that said, arma 3 campaign with some dlcs was fucking badass. Yes, it can get glitchy but overall a very immersive experience. I play games to get away from people, drink a few beers and tune the world out not get right back in it just for some infantry wannabe mamas boy who wants to play "leader".
It's literally the only PC infantry game classified as a milsim...
This thread is full of peasant dirt eaters. Even beyond the fact there are other game modes, if you wanna play milsim and don't feel like getting ordered around you can just learn to fly and provide effective brrrt support.
Not even close.
Maybe 1/5 of the ArmA clans I've ever seen could qualify as Milsim. Most would be "serious, but fun" as in no ranks, no permanent roles, no titles, just pick a slot and try to not be a dick for two hours
lmao no. DayZ mod still has plenty of active servers
I have a good bun h of friends and we play it on a level everyone enjoys. Perhaps it is good friends you lack user?
>Not even close.
>Maybe 1/5 of the ArmA clans I've ever seen could qualify as Milsim.
Are you dumb or did you not realize you were classifying people and not a piece of software with that statement? You do realize that Arma/VBS is software in use with over 30 countries, yes?
when Arma 3 was new, it was acceptable to fuck around. now its only absolute control freak retards.
>he doesn't play arma in single player only and set up custom scenarios for maxium control
Naw man, Arma III is good practice if you play on some servers. The AI is such bullshit that you build fast diving to the ground reflexes.
>>ever playing online
>>he doesn't play arma in single player only [...]
This is the best way to play any game desu. Specially when Arma3 has almost zero content out of the box. Also my internet is shit.
Starcraft 2 is alright
The only one i ever enjoyed was Operation Flashpoint, back in like 2002. And it was difficult as fuck, but still exhilarating trying to creep around a town and blast tangos. The squad movement stuff was cool. Arma is a poor imitation, and no fun at all.
Arma's hard to like. When it's not breaking apart at the seams, the AI is stupid and not a challenge.
Project Reality and Sqaud and Post-Scriptum are more fun.
Friends?
ArmA is just OPF but with better graphics and controls.
You got old :D
I loved OFP too back in the day. Still remember the real combat mission clearly, where you ride a M113 to see whatever happened to some officer who apparently got ambushed.
t. Milsim server admin
Milsim servers are fucking cancerous, not because they try to use correct VP or tactics, but because they go completely OTT to the point that it's hilariously wrong, I will give a few examples(from an ex bong squaddie pov) when I was playing an RHS milsim server
>kicked for referring to SAW as "machinegun" instead of "Squad Automatic Weapon".
Seriously, I had to say all of that shit out loud on the mic or I was breaking VP apparently.
>playing as mortar team, get fire mission, commander comes over teamspeak telling me to repeat last(which is artyspeak for repeat last fire mission, NOT for you to say what you just said again), causes friendly fire incident, I explained that I was asked to repeat, kicked for having incorrect VP(wasn't allowed to join server again unless I had a 1 hour lesson held once a week on VP, never allowed to mortar again)
>playing as foward observer, call fire mission, dumb fuck reads coordinates backwards and bombs other side of map, he gets kicked for ammo wastage and I get warned for giving incorrect coords even though I didn't.
>radio HQ for ammo resupply, admin demands explanation of why squad used to much ammo, explain that maybe we used so much ammo because we needed to, kicked for backchatting
>kicked for not saluting admin in game
The admins fucking sucked dick however the guys in my squad were all either ex forces or didn't take it too seriously, but I found a new server finally that's a bit better, also unrelated but the admin on Roleplay.co.uk altis life was a fucking corporal and cuts about like he's a real life sergeant major in game, fucking creature
>command fucks up
>punishes men below him
>everyone just passes the buck
>complete mission, but get chewed out for not caring about logistics
Sounds like a lot of stories I hear from the actual army.
>Arma is a poor imitation
It's literally the same game but with updated graphics. Up until Arma 3 anyway.
DayZ used to be a perfect mix of both in its hayday
That's just absurd, admins punishing people for failing while in real wars chaos is GUARANTEED and it's actually command's job to react by changing plans to fit different situations.
It's like they only understood HALF of the term "mil-sim" and then went full autist when the other half - chaos, that is - hit the scene.
Not cool, people should enjoy failure and let it teach them stuff. Totally not cool.
I never met a single control freak retard in DayZ mod. Usually the thought of getting murdered and losing your kit was enough to deter too much retardation.
>tfw it's 9 days shy of six years since ArmA 3 alpha release and we never got a true dayz mod clone
Why? We've had SIX FUCKING YEARS and all we can do is the broken breaking point mod and what spawned PUBG
>you guys like this mod right? Well we're coming out with a standalone!
>absolutely broken
>dont worry, just some starting bumps!
>years later, still just as broken
>hey guys remember how good standalone was? We're coming out with a console version!
>its even less like the Arma 2 mod, is that great?
>Arma 3? You mean Xbox One!
Dont even get me started man.
>Playing clanstack tacti-twitch shooters where you have to be enough of a fag to join a super serious clan to get an advantage
I don't even play FPS anymore because the barriers to entry are too low and any brainlet can git gud just by playing all day. I wasted a bunch of time on RO2 and the Rising Storm 1 and eventually you just dominate everyone via repetition and it doesn't require intelligent decision making. PR (haven't played Squad I assume it's similar) was was more dynamic and you could make calls and use communication to outsmart a larger force but you're absolutely fucked if you're an extra in a ShackTac video because most pubbies don't even know basic shit like if a gunshot report is louder in the left ear it comes from the left.
Play DCS, Dangerous Waters and CMANO, strategy/flight/sub sims with inbuilt pleb filters. They can't grind their way to being elite if they're dyslexic or have ADD and can't orient themselves, interpret maps/nav stuff and do basic arithmetic.
Play small scenarios with friends.
This x1000
why would you even play with such pathetic beta male cucks? that's depressing.
>Life servers
No kidding, why would you even subject yourself to any roleplay server in any game you dumb fuck.
Those powertrip super serious milsim faggots get more emotional than actual soldiers under fire in a fucking game
>wasn't allowed to join server again unless I had a 1 hour lesson held once a week on VP
lol I've had a similar experience, this cunt wasn't a yank/canadian called bob by any chance was he?
