ARMA 3 Players

I've not picked up ARMAIII yet. Still haven't even messed with the ARMAII Collection much.

However, I plan on getting it eventually. Just haven't felt the need to pick it up anytime soon.

If any of you want to try out some co-op, the guys at SimHQ will be playing "Military Mondays" today. Missions start at 5pm PST and run for 2-3 hours. Warm-up session starts at 4pm where you can get a feel for the communications systems in use, get to know the other players, and ask questions.

You need to register at SimHQ and download and install a couple of mod packs that they use as well as the CBA pack.

They're a good bunch of guys and can be a lot of fun (as long as you aren't the poor bastard who happens to catch a round in the cranium in the first couple minutes of a mission. I manage to do that quite well.)

I've played over at SimHq... good group! If there is enough interest in the group here we could set a night to play and if there are others who want to help in the missions or using the MCC mod to generate dynamic mission as well.

I am going to play around with the Zeus functionality some more over the week. After I get a little bit more comfortable with it, I'm thinking about setting up a match just to test how the comms work, multiplayer settings, etc. Perhaps this weekend. The Zeus is pretty cool - think a Arma 3 Dungeonmaster. It was pretty easy to drop forces around and interact with them. I even set up some mock battles. There are a lot of interesting and dynamic scenarios that could be easily set up.

The MCC mod is also great for setting up quick dynamic missions.

I have created a couple of sandbox maps that should scale to well to different sized groups. On those maps I have a base of operations set up where you can equip and re-spawn. I also have experience with the MCC mod where I can generate missions on the fly. I also have used Zeus, but I think it works best in cooperation with MCC.

I think coop insurgent hunting missions are probably the most fun I have had with ArmA 2 and 3, so I would be up to hosting some missions and handling the action on the fly.

I'd be in for Co-Op - time and time zone (GMT) permitting

Been checking out the tutorials on MCC and wow. This looks like an absolute blast.
