so here it is my first game no clue what needed to be done, btw am getting 60-80 fps on default low settings... but when i went into the first game our base was getting attacked 30sec after loading up my fps went to 10 and was unplayable.(was the map rendering can be the reason? would it happen again ). also what are some beginners guide and why don't we have a megathread(resources) for beginners.... thanks

I bought a3 2 days ago, its going well i played around 10 hours on which 5 hours single player/campaigns and 5 hours multiplayer(i am gonna cry i didnt kill a single enemy 😄 )

am getting around 30(in battle zones)-60 fps in a3 and thinking of buying reforger(why cause ease of pvp) i did not feel much lag

so my question to you veterans is should i go for reforger or should i stay here a bit, my primary goal is the ease pvp and a little while ago i asked in community(arma reforger) about my specs which people said will be not playable enough(ryzen7 4800H + 3050ti + 16gb) but by looking at a3 30fps low which is playable than i thought i think it can handle it(maybe it can go to 25 at low or 20 even)

if yes how can i make friend to play with(i am not interesting person tried to crack joke but no one laughed ) and beginner server

btw you people are great a3 ones

Hey there arma community

>My laptop specs - (ryzen 7 4800H, rtx 3050ti, 2 x 8gb ram)

in my previous post two friendly people said that it won't be enough for arma reforger as in fights it will drop too low (around 10fps which is unplayable) and also normally it will get around 25 fps...

So my question is isn't there any workaround to atleast get 35+ fps even in low graphics setting

one persion suggestted nvidia motion control but 30 series does not have that, and ingame dlss i don't know if it will work and the steam return policy gives 2hour to test so idk how can i test in that much time when i never played milsim... mods are out of question if it drops 10fps cause thats why i am likig this game... but is vanilla enough though?

so is there any help(to get constant framerate) or anytthing i can do to play arma or should i not buy it cause fps drops will make it unplayable and i dont wanna waste my money if it wont work...

thank you to the community and to the people in my previous post who helped me you really are great comrades ❤️

Hii i am a 24M(student) from a small town in india, i do have some questions before buying

1. So i get around 70-100ping in valorant in India, in singapore its 120-140ms so will that cause a problem
2. can ping cause major issues in a match
3. Also can i play mods from here(india/pacific)? Wont i face any problems?
4. How is the community, can i become friend with someone and play with them?
5. My laptop specs - (ryzen 7 4800H, rtx 3050ti, 16gb ram) will it be good for arma reforger?
6. if i join vanilla/community servers will people communicate?
7. As a completely new player, how much of a typical 3-hour session is actually spent making meaningful decisions versus running, driving, or waiting?
8. Can smart positioning, reconnaissance, and planning consistently beat mechanically better shooters, or does good aim still decide most fights?
9. How many hours until the game starts making sense instead of feeling confusing?
10. How many meaningful firefights happen in a typical 2-hour session on Conflict server
11. Be brutally honest: what parts of arma reforger become boring even for fans?
12. What misconception do new buyers have before purchasing Reforger?
13. how much player use third person perspective(tpp) cause i hate this it makes games unrealistc
14. Is leaving the game inbetween will cause problem cause many days i cant play 4 hours i have to study

I am deciding btw squad and arma reforger, i am leaning towards arma reforger for its mods, pvp, pve and immersion also freedom and its new and growing playerbase, also the video of trench warfare in yt i loved it and one russian guys arma 3 video

i could buy arma reforger(1800rs around 20dollars) OR squad(1200rs around 15dollars) + arma3(600rs around dollars).. both cose around 1800 in total

thanks in advance and sorry for long post also i am putting what chatgpt advised for me(but i want real people advice rather than a bot)...

edit1 - added a question

tldr - i need help in buying arma reforger and asking questions about it
