Arma 2

Arma 2 is an open world military simulator in which realism is brought to the details. Bullet ballistics, breathing, fatigue and commands to the unit affect the outcome of the battle more than accuracy. In addition to the story campaigns, there is an editor where you can collect your own tasks, and this is where a large part of the community grew up. Battles are rarely quick: more often you have to take positions, study the situation and wait for the right moment. The technique requires skill: a helicopter or an armored vehicle is not a means of rapid movement, but a separate profession. There are network modes and a lot of user modifications that have changed the face of the project. Separately, it is worth noting that commanding a squad requires practice: orders, formations, fire at a target and withdrawal are carried out through the interface. In addition to campaigns, there is an editor where you can assemble your own scenarios with a choice of composition and setting. Community modifications have turned the project into a playground for a variety of scenarios, including co-op. The technique requires skill, and helicopter flying is turning into a separate profession. Mistakes are quickly punished, but a well-planned operation brings a rare sense of control over the situation. The mod community produced so many maps and vehicles that now the project lives almost entirely on it. The squad's equipment is selected according to the task: in some places you need grenades, in others you need smoke bombs, and in others you need nothing but silence. Night operations require instruments, and without them the enemy remains at an advantage. For those who want a military simulation experience without simplification, the Arma 2 provides a rare depth.
