Default ARMA

I thought everyone knew.

ARMA is a military virtual simulator. You may control a soldier from the first person point of view or control groups of AI soldiers from any vantage point. There is a multitude of weapons and vehicles available that can be used over many different maps. These maps (or islands) are virtual worlds that vary in size, some as large as 1600 km sq. As a player you can can pick up and use items, put them in their backpacks, change clothing, use earplugs, flashlights, flares, smoke grenades, enter buildings, drive or ride in vehicles, fly planes, climb, crawl, lean, squat, use handsignals, bleed, punch, stab, carry and drag other players, eat, drink, go deaf, get fatigued

Best of all is the interaction between other players your voice is 3d situational which enables you to shout or whisper to those who are close enough to hear. Radios can enable longer range comms and objects and terrain may interfere with reception and transmission.

Maps are scaled and representative . Constellations are useful. Moon light is variable and linked to the date.

Players can make their own maps or worlds, mods and missions. The editing features are fairly versatile.

Never heard of ARMA ... interesting. Google that.
