Will any of the DLC be required?

If not, I'd like to sign up. Sounds like a good opportunity to finally get into/try out Arma

You'll only need to install the mods provided in the list! Some more mods might be added in the future.

You got it! I added you, don't worry.

Update!

• 3 mods added: task_force_radio (how to use explained in FAQ)
  Advanced Rappelling - Reworked
  Advanced Urban Rappelling

Download link is also updated to v2, so you can just download & import.

Please ensure your modlist is up to date. Also, I may create a Steam Group so communication is easier - expect a friend or group invite.

TFAR has been confirmed to be working. You'll join my TS3 which I'll provide by the formerly mentioned Steam Group.


Regarding the test operation,
The test operation will take place on Saturday, the 12th June 2021 at 17:30 BST. The test operation will test:

• Functioning of assets, mods etcetera
• FPS / Gameplay balance
• Loadouts

Once the test is concluded, we'll host a small ~30 minute long mission, very straightforward one.

Don't worry. The test operation is what it is - a test. I'll try to get it recorded however, so people can give their opinions.

Although, the first 30 minutes will be mostly testing, so you got some time : D

Don't forget!

The test operation is tomorrow (or today if you're as irresponsible like I am), Saturday the 12th. The time will be 5:30 PM BST. I'm also unable to record for this one due to my very lame internet - I'd appreciate someone taking over in that aspect, if possible.

TS3 and the Server itself are ready. I'm bringing in some finishing touches on the mission.

I'm very excited to see how well we play together - looking forward to this! If you're not yet in the Steam Group, please DM me.

This will happen in one hour! Make sure all mods are installed and ready. Check in Steam Group soon for details.

Overall, I can say - while it was chaotic, it went very well. The chaos is on me, since the map did some chaotic things and I got a little stressed. It was great fun to me though, and I enjoyed it and I hope those who participated did as well.

Although, I've taken a few notes of what I'll probably change for the next operation:

• inclusion of a limited arsenal
• proper resupplies
• different map
• continued optimization of on-map assets (props etc)
• better briefings, with map markers
• greater immersion
• more music
• more detailed tutorial on how to join, set everything up etcetera

The OP will be updated within the coming days with a small set of mod and the above. Suggestions are welcome, and sign-ups are still open - with the next operation most likely taking place on a bigger map, we're definetly looking to fill some slots up anyways. There is a chance I might invite my own community to it as well, so we have a large number of participants and the maximum degree of chaotic fun : D

Also, I might add ACE3 to the main operation, since it seems popular. To those who recorded videos, please post them! If you have any more ideas, feel free to post them in the thread.
