This Friday the 3rd of July, we will see Tactical Gamer hosting the 3rd evolution in the groundbreaking Operation Flashpoint Military Sim series. I will post some recommended reading for all, both new members and old hands alike, and once done with that feel free to jump on the server. Obviously with the release of any new game there will be teething problems, and A2's main issue is its in-game communication, or VON is not working correctly. So until that gets fixed in a patch it will be disabled. However feel free to use our teamspeak server until then.

Thinking of upgrading your computer?
Jun 20, 2009 - 12:14 PM - by Bamboo
With the release of ARMA2 upon us, seems like everyone is talking about upgrading their rigs to get all the eye candy they can out of the game. But upgrading can be a daunting task, and nothings worse than spending a ton of money and then finding out it wasn't worth it, or wasn't the right parts.

This tread is going to hopefully help those looking to upgrade get the most bang for their buck and end up with a smile on their face when they boot up ARMA2 for the 1st time

I spend a lot of my free time keeping up with the latest tech news and looking for deals online, and using that to help fellow TG players make good choices. The way I see it, the players that are happy with their computer, the more people I have to shoot at. This thread may end up being so long, you might have to read it over a couple days. I also recommend you check out our Tactical Gamer Hardware & Software Discussion forum. It is very active and has a lot of really smart guys to help with just about any problem. We are constantly talking about the latest news, and will be a good way to keep up with things that change from what I talk about below. Things change very fast in the tech world after all.

So here we go.

America's Army 3 and it's Free!
Jun 15, 2009 - 9:57 PM - by Vulcan


For those of you that don't know America's Army has been a long time army promotional game free to the public.

This game takes you on a face first tour of the army straight from the training grounds to the live battlefield. Utilizing teamwork, tactics and training to an extreme are absolutely necessary to proceed in this game.

You assume a tactical squad role and work as a unit to achieve objectives in many of the very large maps this game has to offer. It is built on the Unreal 3 Engine and looks spectacular while applying a very detailed physics system.

See for yourself

Now you can preload this game via steam and play for free on the 17th.

Tactical Gamer will be hosting this game and Hopefully we will see you on battlefield.

TG Review of ArmA 2 - London 20/05/09

ARMA 2 TACTICAL GAMER REVIEW


On wednesday this week, 505 Games hosted an ArmA 2 launch event in London. As TG are running 2 of the biggest and best servers in the world, we were invited along. This is the report our man Jason sent back. Enjoy!

Arma 2 pre-release demonstration review. May 20th 2009

505 Press launch in London for Arma 2

By Jason for Tactical Gamer


Event: James and Jan from Bohemia Interactive showed a gameplay demonstration of Arma 2 and answered questions from the press. The journalists and guests were then allowed to play Arma 2 first hand on pc’s provided by Nvidia.


First impressions:

We jump into a mission scenario and I can instantly see the graphical improvements. The detail of every object is much higher compared to Arma 1 and the new hemispherical lighting system makes for a very real and enticing environment.

Anyone watching cannot help but become instantly immersed in the vast landscape and then wonder at the infinite possibilities available before us with the mission editor alone.

But before I get carried away with my own imagination, lets see what Bohemia Interactive have come up with to entertain us.

So we have arrived in Chernarus as marines to provide a peacekeeping force amongst the civil unrest with multiple factions fighting for power and territory. The campaign begins on an aircraft carrier just off shore of Chernarus. As a member of Razor team, a rapid reaction forces team we are deployed to take control of the situation.

This is where I can see the appeal of the campaign is far greater than Arma 1, which had a linear approach with main and secondary target in phases one after the other. The campaign in Arma 2 is much more organic and has many variables that affect the outcome of your success and failure. You will have multiple options to choose from at each step of the way. How you collect information from local civilians and friendly faction members will be vital. All conversations and key information is
