In-game training

Playing in Multiplayer

Playing in Multiplayer is way different from Single Player. An AI can be predicted, its skill altered, its behaviour planned, whereas an experimented human being makes you wary of each and every of its moves.

  • If possible, try to play on various servers with friends or an Arma 3 Unit to enhance your game experience
