ArmA At War


Maybe this is a nice alternative for people who are interested in PvP/TvT in ArmA 3, but are not the biggest fans of game modes like King of the Hill, Exile etc. The origins of this game mode come from the Project Reality Mod for ArmA 3. Some of the developers decided to leave that project and they continued their work under a different name.

So ArmA At War is a framework made to offer TvT/PvP in ArmA 3, without going into the direction of other game modes I mentioned. The gamemode runs on vanilla, but the goal is also make this as compatible with mods as possible.



There is currently a testing-server online in germany.  You can find the server information here.

I will keep an eye on this and maybe try to play it when people are online. Might be something we could even keep an eye out for our own public server. Maybe we could do something like a TvT week or something in which we do TvT inside the unit and run this with our mods on the server if it is ready & stable. :)

Short video I put together from playing this with Sabe yesterday. I forgot to record my own microphone and I also had some issues with the scope. This is all vanilla and so you don't have the option for 2D Scopes via ACE3. That made aiming abit hard because of head movement from Track IR.

Anyone interested in trying this out as a small group?

They are doing a playtest at 19:00 GMT tomorrow. There will be some new stuff in the mission too. 

I should have time and I would be up for playing a bit.

It's Vanilla. All stuff is done via the mission framework. The framework itself is open to modding and some people already made modded versions of this.

I will be around starting from 19:00 (your time). I will also livestream this and sneak some advertisement for our unit in. :)

Would be nice if a few people from us would also play. We could make a little Section and it is basically Project Reality/Squad in ArmA 3. :)

You require no mods for this, Not sure if you can use client side Mods like Dynasound.

Adjusted the stream time due to google being silly and putting me into the BST time zone when being logged in to the 3CB account. Stream will start at 7:30pm BST. I am sitting in a game channel until then.

You also have to run ArmA without any mod's. I tried connecting with Dynasound and it won't let me connect.

I know we have a public action today, but one of the devs asked me if I could do a bit of advertisement here. :)

They do playtests/public sessions pretty much every Saturday at around 19:00 BST. The mode does not require any mods and you actually cant connect with mods to it. 

You can get server information and other stuff over their Discord.
