Now that I got it running...
I'm pretty overwhelmed. Oddly it is what I wanted having played a life time of fps/third person action games from Wolf 3d to present day, things get stale when you feel like you've played the same game for the millionth time, just this time it's shinier and prettier.
What I'm rambling about is wow this is an awesomely complex game and I'm a wee bit nervous about making a fool of myself in multiplayer, especially the TG servers as you guys look like you keep a tight ship and that's the one place I'd like to be accepted. I've been reading your rules and such but where else do I go? I've heard the singleplayer is right bad. Just stick it out and try and learn as I go along online?

Re: Now that I got it running...
ahhh don't worry, we are all fools. Just jump to the servers and anyone there will gladly help you with the basics, use single player only to practice flying and shooting AT's.
Glad that you are enjoying TG and welcome to the forums.
PS: Don't be afraid to use your microphone, the experience is allot better when you are able to talk.

Re: Now that I got it running...
Just let people know you are new and they will help you out... walk you through it. and tell which buttons to push... Then you will catch on slowly but surely

Re: Now that I got it running...
So welcome to TG ArmA! I'd advise you to just skip the singleplayer and go straight to multiplayer on the TG servers. There'll always be some people on who are willing to help a new guy out.

Re: Now that I got it running...
some friendly advice: I would stay away from the "domination" missions.... they are not representative of quality ArmA play IMO...
These missions are to lone wolf players like a fat kid in a candy store... I know if I started out in domination I probably would have not continued to play ArmA (had I not played OFP before it)

Re: Now that I got it running...
I agree, I was about done with ArmA because of how most domination servers played, then I found TG

And don't try to be a Rambo or you will find your self waiting a long time for the mission to end. The play style in this game is a lot different from other FPS games. Best of luck.|TG-Irr|LCpl. Soto

Yep what everyone has said above is correct. I also agree with Soto's method for learning, once you master the basics, you can start leading. TG is a great place to learn. Have a great time gaming
