Q: What server am I playing Arma games on, who are these people, and can you join?
A: It's the private server for my community, Shack Tactical. As of 2014 we've been around for eight years, and I wouldn't trade it for anything - we have a fantastic memberbase and it makes for amazing gameplay in Arma and elsewhere. You can read more about us here: www.shacktac.com
Q: What mods does ShackTac use in Arma?
A: I keep a list of them here: dslyecxi.com/sh...
Q: Does ShackTac play mostly coop or mostly PvP/adversarial in Arma?
A: We do a mix of about 70% adversarial and 30% coop - both offer unique experiences and are a blast to play.
Q: How long have you been playing the Arma series?
A: I've been here from the start, with my Operation Flashpoint experience beginning with the demo's release in 2001. I went into the US Marine Corps shortly after (no relation!) and in 2004 I started playing OFP in multiplayer. 2006 saw me found ShackTac, which started in OFP and then transitioned through Arma 1, Arma 2, and finally, Arma 3. I hope to continue this for a long time into the future, as well as share the ride with viewers like you, as corny as that sounds!
Q: What system am I filming all of my Arma and VBS footage on?

Thanks Dslyecxi, I'm very happy to see this video. I've been quite frustrated in the past playing with less organized players, telling them we're going to "bound forward" or "break contact" without them really understanding what that means.

@Troublechutor 10 лет назад

Most players don't understand real life concepts of modern warfare, and they play games to live out a fantasy of what they see in the movies. I'd be surprised if even a minority of players in ARMA really understand such things. Stuff like this is good to know, but I wouldn't count on the other folks in a server playing a pick-up game to "get it"... me and my friends often exploit that to our advantage :)

@KingKillerFPS 10 лет назад

I would love to see more of how you organize and move your squads infantry style! I wanna see it in "Kavala" as urban CQC first person is my favorite. I could never be in the Military, but I like to play Arma seriously. So hearing all of the vernacular, seeing how you call things out, and get people moving...is so immensely helpful for someone like me. I appreciate the time you put into all of your vids, If I could be a Patreon I would. I love Arma, I love your Videos, keep it up man.

@K1LLW1N 10 лет назад

Oh yes. Fundamental indeed. Completely defeats the Tactical Blob I tend to find myself in xD

@industrialdonut7681 7 лет назад

4:58 I've watched this video a lot of times before, but I just now caught this part where you say it's very important for the moving team to watch their flanks!! This was something that had always been on my mind, and I mean for a loooong time, that when moving forward with a static point-source cover team they could not POSSIBLY "cover" or "save" you when moving if there were enemies that appeared hard on your sides or something in that manner because they could just as well be in cover from the covering team, lel. I heard also earlier in the video that "everybody needs to understand the GEOMETRY of the bound" which I think right here is really where you touch upon that. Would you say that if the moving team does take flanking fire that they should most likely then get cover and return fire for the former covering team to then go, flank? o.O I love this stuff Thank you so much for these videos

@BlackShadow1991 10 лет назад

Yay, always happy to see more detailed and easy to understand toturials :D

@davidadam7263 10 лет назад

"Well I'm not afraid, as long as you keep your head down. Shoot, communicate, move, a-ha, you should make it out in one piece." Love the reference (if it was intentional)!

@HalfPinoyPride 10 лет назад

Really cool to see your videos in the actual game

@TENGILL 10 лет назад

Thank you man!, this is just the thing i was hoping you would do when i became a Patreon! =)

@johnschmidt6885 10 лет назад

Thanks for the video it explained the concept of bounding overwatch to me and my friends very well.

@TheAndrewdfd 9 лет назад

In the USMC, we call this buddy/fireteam rushes. We push towards the enemy, and through them until they are all eliminated.

@MaVeR1cKGamingHD 10 лет назад

Great video! Very insightful and hope to see your upcoming videos!

@bjsracer 10 лет назад

Explained well Dslyecxi..........it becomes second nature for a grunt.

@VigilanteGamer 10 лет назад

I've been waiting a long time for you to make this video.

@syanlopez1 10 лет назад

looking forward to more infantry tactic videos dslyecxi :)

@rambo2UO 10 лет назад

Thats great, we just released a Buddy Teamwork guide.

@izkh4lif4 4 года назад

Arma 3 is almost 8 years old and still looks clean as shit.

@scienz0220 10 лет назад

Great video topic!! I was considering emailing ya with bounding as a suggested topic, and here we are. You are the man!

@HuNtS105 10 лет назад

I wish I could be apart of actual groups/Ops like this... All the arma 3 servers are nothing like this, or any other of dslyecxis videos for that matter. Thanks for the great video

@vladimirvputinstein 10 лет назад

Hey Dslyecxi, when you record the gameplay for these kinds of videos... How often are you using AI, and how often are you using real people?

@UNMPBerkut 10 лет назад

Forgive me for asking you Dslyecxi but what is your average frame rate when playing Arma 2? Did you do anything to enhance it? Thank you.

@toxicsludge77 10 лет назад

Nice one, should be in the playlist of every decent group.

@Th3R00k131 10 лет назад

Love your work Dslyecxi, keep doing what your doing. :) I hope you plan to do something with the ZEUS dlc for Arma 3 soon. I am excited to see what you have in store for us.

@TheRedligne 9 лет назад

In France we call it "formation tiroir" !

@MrFranciscovenci 10 лет назад

Thank you for all the inf

@XxBillyGoatNinjaxX 8 лет назад

In the US Army we call it bounding/battle team bounding. Very useful tactic to know and kinda dangerous lol

@OJavanP 10 лет назад

Thank you for makes Nice guide video! Can I ask a question? How to apply left shoulder patch? I want to know how to do it.

@Shon304 10 лет назад

2:38 also 6:10 i have never seen that place on the map, it looks so epic. where is it?

@zChaoticy 10 лет назад

I think that is the ported version of ArmA 2's Chernarus map.

@Drrolfski 10 лет назад

Arma series are probably the only shooters were these RL tactics might occasionally work.

@RhodokTribesman 10 лет назад

Red orchestra 2

@Drrolfski 10 лет назад

***** I mean RL tactics won't work 90% of the time in video games. That even goes for Arma series. Still you will often see players trying to be tacticool and all that without taking the reality of video game mechanics into account.

@EnDSchultz1 10 лет назад

***** Might occasionally. Without mods, the aimbot NPCs will entirely ignore suppression, and will gladly stand out in the open in order to cut down the advancing team before the covering one can drop them.

@KenLee318 10 лет назад

EnDSchultz1 I always see NPC as the king of rural and player the king of urban settings, at least that's what I learnt when I panicked in the middle of nowhere.

@bwcmakro 10 лет назад

EnDSchultz1 that's why you should play TvT

@BforBellyRub 10 лет назад

Im not sure if im getting my facts wrong, but in Britain I believe we call this "Pepper potting"

@dslyecxi 10 лет назад

I've heard this from Canadian/NZ/AUS members as well, yeah.

@jameswhitenet 10 лет назад

I know it as fire and manoeuvre

@Ducky97743 10 лет назад

James White what about "leap frogging"

@jameswhitenet 10 лет назад

Angelo Davis That to

@craighuddy5351 10 лет назад

Pepper potting is the original term for this tactic came about from the 95th rifles 1st infantry unit to use this tactic *SWIFT AND BOLD*

@0BirdFilm0 10 лет назад

Out of interest, do you have ST members acting out the other roles in these videos or is it AI?

@Troublechutor 10 лет назад

Always wondered that myself.

@voxel_bonedisk 10 лет назад

AI, humans, inanimate rocks, it makes no difference: all obey the orders of Dslyecxi

@0BirdFilm0 10 лет назад

Thomas Purnell I just like the thought of him yelling out "Action" and "Cut" and "Back to One" instead of the usual military commands.

@Sinkatze 10 лет назад

Greatly explained!

@philk9227 10 лет назад

Great Video, thanks

@kutaap123 10 лет назад

at 4:23 how did you make that left hand fall

@ALegitimateYoutuber 10 лет назад

OMG YES!!! another tutorial

@65DDTG 10 лет назад

Coooooool!!! More of these.

@Greavsie93 10 лет назад

So if it's just a two man team, you apply the same basic principals? I'm assuming it's the same process for a tactical withdrawal, except obviously you run away from contact.

@barbdwyer22 10 лет назад

Buddy team bounding works under the same basic principals, yes. Similar movements for displacement as well. Displacing has multiple ways to go about it depending on the situation, as well.

@BulliezInc 10 лет назад

It's just called "break contact" it's a battle drill and when doing so yes you use the same basic idea but move backwards or backwards to the flanks . Use smoke or cover for help when bounding back .

@halliwedge 10 лет назад

nice ;3 i like it. i'd love to see more

@FJaypewpew 10 лет назад

i feel like ive seen this before....or a highlight of bounding overwatch specifically

@JJP_115 10 лет назад

Is this the same as fire and move?

@asinineintentions7773 10 лет назад

One of my biggest questions in all this, is, how the hell did those guys drop to their sides and open fire so quickly when they got shot at? I know how to get into that position but it involves going prone and then doing it, whereas they just dropped from the standing position to the sideward laying down position.

@anter176 10 лет назад

I think to do that you do the side stepy thingy the go prone, so what you said you did but in the reversed order.

@Spyderist 10 лет назад

good video.

@FlySwann 10 лет назад

I don't know if you already plan on this,but the most common mistake I see in fps games is players silloeting themselves on hills and buildings.

@tenchimuyo69 5 лет назад

I am suddenly having bad memories of Arma 2's AI, which would default its squad based movement to this whenever it had been engaged in combat. Even after combat ends, it continues to move this way indefinitely by default unless specifically scripted not to, which is kind of ass.

@miker8242 10 лет назад

Is this the same as pepper potting that british SF use?

@RhodokTribesman 10 лет назад

Yes

@anothermoth 10 лет назад

Many years ago when i was a cadet, we used 'pepper potting' specifically for versions of this where the moving elements are single people. Sometimes it would be just the buddy team version, and sometimes it would be a larger unit moving as a blob: each individual would advance until they had fresh ground to cover, then wait as others moved up past them, and advance again when they're at the back of the blob, all on their own initiative. It was used where you might expect single enemies popping up at close range, like checking a mostly wiped-out enemy position. The larger, more synchronised versions were just called ' attacks', e.g. a 'section attack' where fire teams are the elements, a 'platoon attack' where sections are the elements. We'd bound towards the enemy then charge the last bit as one. I remember a lot of shouting of 'alpha section prepare to move', 'alpha section move'... and shouting 'bang!' a lot because we'd only been issued 5 blanks for the whole night...

@LeeEnfield7756 10 лет назад

anothermoth Gotta love cadet ammo logistics, like getting two mags for a three-day exercise.

@kay4x4 10 лет назад

Also works for sectoids and other alien species and machines.

@MrEPiiKK 10 лет назад

Arma looks like so much fun and i have bought it when it was in beta, but the thing is i cant get into it. Cant find anything but altis life servers and the single player is shit, just like most community missions. HELP!

@asinineintentions7773 10 лет назад

If you're 18 you can join ShackTac, if not, just look up some realism groups to get you into this kind of stuff.

@KonverTT 10 лет назад

give the zues servers a try

@locko1997 10 лет назад

Go on Filter and scroll on gamemode... you should try cooperation, zeus master or zeus coop...

@Grim_PL 10 лет назад

locko1997 They should finally let us "Filter out" some selected keywords like dayz, life, etc. It's not something hard to implement but BI is as always annoying at times.

@tenchimuyo69 10 лет назад

Join a clan or group that specializes in a game type favorable to you. Such as Shacktac. Apply for that group, and learn to do things as they do. Then just sit back and follow the events and play when they play. Actually, this is a good method to use on any online game that lacks players. Just find a group where everyone plays a certain type of game at certain times when everyone is available to play at once.
