Wow, and they say military isn't just vidya game!
Britbong Soldier reprimanded for not playing a "training sim" correctly
Ian James
Evan Jackson
Bet that guy has better planning skills than most generals.
Hudson Baker
Please tell me you play against other soldiers and not against the AI.
If not, here's a quick combat tip: Hadjis usually don't need 5 seconds to decide if you're an enemy or not.

It's airborne reconnaissance scenarios, usually one or two guys playing Zeus for the stuff that needs to go smoothly, and then the rest are very poorly scripted AI waypoints. The biggest problem is you can't surprise somebody in Arma unless you build your own map from the ground up; they found that out in the first session when about 1/5 of the room would start talking over layouts of the Zargabad villages with the other 4/5 as soon as we were directed to move.

Why is this news? Shit like VBS has been used for years and they need to punish they guy that played it like battlefield to maintain any sense of order.
They really should break up the use of it because I could see every day for 3 weeks wearing the guys down until shit like this happens but that is an internal army matter.
Nathan Hill
Yeah, wonder where you got it, fucking newfaggot. Bet you haven't even read him, fucking newfaggot.

I have in my Arma team the original creators of both the VTS and DUWS mods (AKA all of Zeus shit before bohemia got their fat asses around to actually release something like that). Who the fuck do you think play tested them?
I tell you, I've lead so many actions in that game if even 1% translate into real life skills I might as well be Napoleon.
(To be clear: I really don't think that's the case. I guess it beat powerpoints but I have more than doubts on the usefulness of such "training").
Chase Rogers
Wouldn't it make more sense to train with Paintball against another squad rather than play games against some shitty AI?
Jose Jones
Paintball cost money.
With sticks and saying bang would be more useful.
I guess if you're teaching approaches and what not it beats a powerpoint and just sitting in a class but two or three weeks of doing just that seems excessive.
