If you're looking for a shooter equal to Call of Duty or Battlefield, you have definitely come to the wrong place. This game is not about kills and superior aim - it's all about tactics and coordination.

First off, Arma 3 is more of a platform for multiple games than a standalone game itself. You can either play Vanilla Arma without mods, completing the campaign as a soldier or can enjoy the game by playing King of the Hill in multiplayer, or you could play as a lone survivor after the apocalypse fighting your way through by battling other survivors, looting abandoned houses and building your gearstack to be able to compete with other players in Exile, or you could play Altis Life, role-playing as a regular person in the daily life of the people on the Arma maps - and there are way more Arma 3 mods and modes that I can't even list here since there are just too many!

Furthermore, you won't really need all the extensions since there are thousands of community-created mods, maps, weapons, attachments, vehicles and more to just play around with.

If you are interested in all of this, I'd definitely recommend you to give this game a try and if you don't like it you can always refund it after all.

Your review is lit! 🔥 It's like reading a mini novel, so much detail and passion. You're a pro at this, seriously!

Get a couple equipment mods and stuff like ACE and stuff and join DMM patrol server and prepare for happiness flavored death
