Getting back into ARMA 3 - what mods

Recommended Posts

After a long hiatus I'm giving ArmA 3 another run to see how it has improved.

 

So what mods do you guys suggest I give a try? I see some major releases like Unsung have come out but what else is out there? What mod manager (if any) do you guys use?

 

Also I noticed that when in the VR armory the "enemy" soldiers are no longer red, green, or blue colored. They also no longer show up on IR. Any way to switch them back?

If you are playing mostly alone the new(er) Arma launcher is quite good in combination with the mods available via Steam. 

 

For more multiplayer I still find ArmaSync quite useful. I use it as my standard way to launch Arma and is esp. useful when you want to join groups with own mods repositories. There are tons of unit and weapon mods availble, but as a very good basis I'd go with RHS. 

 

Additionally there are also useful optional gameplay mods:

 

- CBA (requirement for many other mods)

- ACE3 

- STHUD (squad compass/ spacial awareness)

- JSRS 4 (jummy sound mod)

- BC Phoenix (for explosion fans)

- MCC Sandbox

- Task force radio or ACRE2

- ....

I recommend the RHS mods. The quality of their stuff greatly surpasses that of the vanilla game.

 

If you like WW2, I recommend Faces of War and IFA3.
