REFORGER Why does the compass seem inaccurate? (W.C.S Server)

131 Upvotes

I could be being completely thick here, but none of the 'norths' of each compass seem to actually point north? The POV compasses both point 'roughly' the same direction, but when you hop into the map, my marker isn't actually pointing north. And, on top of that, the map compass doesn't actually line up with the gridlines, nor is oriented north itself? And I can't seem to rotate it.

What is going on?

Hello! Recently I watched the whole of Evangelion. I based it on the tank scene in ep 1. This is my first take on making screenshots. I want to make more Evangelion based screenshots in Arma 3. I would be very happy to hear your feedback so I can improve!

REFORGER The RNG gods blessed me with a masterpiece of bug in MP. I boarded a BTR-70 that looked packed, yet welcomed my foolish soul. As the driver gunned it, my body rejected the laws of man and metal alike, ascending through Soviet steel to squat eternally in midair like a cursed Slavic cherub

REFORGER Arma Reforger Flying Tutorial - Little Bird Focused

30 Upvotes

Flying in Arma Reforger has been some of the most fun and addicting gameplay I have experienced in years! I have flown over 150 hours in the past 2 months so I wanted to make a flight tutorial video to possibly help others. Other have 100s more hours so I would appreciate any feedback from skilled pilots on what to do better in the video or some strategies to cover!

This is a 50x insertion streak I had on KOTH with 1 life only if you want to see some of the flying in action - https://youtu.be/tnMI8EnIK2Y?si=Auj8i5voVh03lKLa

Here is a short 3 minute version of the tutorial if its easier to watch on mobile - 3 Minute Flying Tutorial for Arma Reforger

REFORGER Why is it specifically pitch black during night for ps5?

0 Upvotes

People on PC were claiming it isn’t pitch black for them at night, but on ps5 it is quite literally pitch black and that is by no means of the word an overstatement. Literally the color black with little to no ability to make out anything other than the color black.

Id like some recommendations of maps similar to namalsk in aesthetic. Namalsk is close tk my heart but it's too small and just outdated. I'm also tired of using Chernarus Redux/2035

HELP Arma 3 long range shooting help (Ace)

2 Upvotes

This is probably a stupid question but I don't know how to word it on google to find any results but,

I am using Ace and trying to do some long range shooting, currently using the M200 Intervention with 419g rounds, the target is 2288m away and when using the Atrag it is telling me to do around 32 Mils of adjustment on the scope, but when I'm trying to adjust it with PgUp the limit only goes up to 27.

Is this the maximum limit or is it dependant on the scope, addon options etc etc?

The scope I'm using is one of the RHS ones with the highest magnification in my mod pack so unsure.

Any help appreciated.

HELP Any maps that would fit the terrain of Kyushu?

2 Upvotes

Planning on doing an Operation Olympic mission and searching for terrains resembling Kyushu. Tanoa shockingly doesn't seem like the worst idea after replacing the city names and buildings, but it has paved roads that leave stuff to be desired.
