When I was young, I played a lot of air-combat games. If I remember well I learned the Ukrainian geography while Bombing Russian troops in Odessa playing USNF Video for the kids . Another game had a campaign in Yemen. If my memory isn’t too rusty, there was also Egypt and Korea campaign.
20 years latter, it seems pretty accurate, so I am curious on where the campaign occur nowaday, just to know where I shouldn’t go
Our server has been having some federation hiccups. I actually play with a really chill unit. Oddly enough, all the Arma units I’ve encountered have been pretty progressive. As a cis woman, I am almost always outnumbered by the trans gals because there’s always a bunch of them around. Also, all the units I’ve been with have a negative amount of tolerance for bigots.
I pretty much always play as the medic in our PvE ops, and unfortunately I’m a little incompetent when it comes to actual combat, so I haven’t been horrendously useful when we play Anyistasi.
That’s really encouraging to hear! I don’t think I’ve ever played Arma multiplayer (other than a bit with my dad) but ages ago I used to play a lot of Battlefield 2 and I recall that community being a mixed bag in terms of cool and toxic people. Maybe that was partly the times as it was a good 15 years ago, though the gaming community even now seems all over the place. My wife and I regularly game with another couple (our own private servers, mostly survival games). They also play Overwatch and have said that community can be pretty awful, especially to women.
Oh, and I know what you mean about Arma combat - it’s punishing. That’s part of why I like those resistance-style game modes. Hit and run is a viable strategy.
Anyway, glad to hear you mostly have good experiences with that community.
