Man, 5 years already? Feels like yesterday! Happy birthday arma 3!

Arma 3 taught me that 30 fps is playable

Y'know, ArmA3 has its ups and downs, but there's nothing out there quite like it. Thanks for making a truly unique experience.

I hope when you guys do ArmA4, you look at all the good and bad you've done with the ArmA series and collate that knowledge into making the perfect military simulator sandbox.

A god damn great game. Alot of my memories with old friends exist because ARMA 2, ARMA 3. Those were great moments...

[benjinis]

I just wanted to thank you a lot for giving me my favourite game which gave me the best moments with my friends :)
Keep it up Bohemia !

Thank you for 5 years of amazing development, keeping the game I love alive and improving on what was already a masterpiece to begin with.

Now we wait for optimization update :]

When I came off my Dirt bike Arma 3 was the perfect escape from reality. Saying goodbye to my platoon was a bitter pill to swallow.

Thousand of Hours....

They are not wasted...they are cherished

[rosenrot]

I hope Arma 4 gets more focus on modern warfare, naval combat, easier server and private match management, mod support/management, optimisation and a more authentic take on sound design. That's my personal wishlist.

Thanks Bohemia for an amazing 5 years. And here's to another 5 years to come!

best game ever my money is ready for ARMA 4

[Rckstrckr]

I love Arma 3 because it reminds me a lot of my childhood: Socom 2. Arma has great missions, beautiful environment, realistic shooting, customization, and a damn great atmosphere. I really love that hot "rainy/cloudy" atmosphere that you get from this game. It's beautiful.

Thanks a lot Bohemia and looking forward for more Arma content.

[MarvinBlum]

Thank you for Arma 3 and 2000+ hours of blood, sweat and tears. My wish list for Arma 4: much better performance, a new scripting language, better graphics and a realistic modern setting with real life guns and vehicles.

[swisstraeng]

Only thing arma 3 lacked so far is optimisation, however being a simulation I guess it's hard to do.

[BlazededgeRZ]

4000+ hours ive had the game since alpha, Loving every second I clock on this game! good work BI! congrats on 5 years of complete badassery!

[Crazygamer]

I can't believe I've actually been playing this bug fest for the past five years



Damn good times too if you ask me

[MrCovin]

Even though it has still some problems, this game is one of my fav of all time.
Awesome support from the developpers, lots of content (both officials & community made)....Lot of gaming company should take this as an example
I played all the ArmA /Flashpoint games, and i have to say : GOOD JOB Bohemia !

I'm very new to Arma 3 (picked it up in January this year (2019)) and it almost immediately went to my favorite list on Steam. This game is _amazing_ I think!
