Arma 3 Anatomy

Arma 3 is a tactical shooter video game. It has both single user as well as multi user mode. It provides the player this advantage to opt for the weapons, features and objectives depending on the style and situation. It runs on this concept of a 2030 war zone at the Mediterranean islands. We are talking about Altis and Stratis area. The whole game is about wars, shootings, harsh conditions, pathetic situations, people going homeless and a refugee crisis. Although, there are peace keeping forces but there are many twists and turns.

Survival Of The Fittest

As Charles Darwin stated very clearly-the more fit you are, the more are the chances of your survival in this planet. We all will agree to his notion stating that the strong will dominate the weaker one and will come out to be the winner. The very notion applies to this virtual, harsh, blood clad world of Arma 3.In order to shine and win, one needs to SURVIVE and ADAPT. These actually are the 3 episodes of the game in question. Here again, we are entering the niche and picking up the episode of survival. We proceed to see the medical requirements for the same.

Survival Strategies

This open world military game will pose many challenges in front of you. You will get hurt, injured or even kill yourself. But if you can stand up again after getting hit, that is where you earn brownie points. In order to heal yourself you will need a first aid kit, used as FAK in the game.

The Algorithm

  1. Soldier gets hit, wounded badly
  2. Require a First Aid Kit (FAK)
  3. Appearance of a white cross on the screen
  4. Point the cursor at the injured soldier
  5. Select TREAT
  6. Press the space bar which is our action key OR use the mouse wheel to go to the action menu
  7. The soldier starts patching himself

Treasure Hunt

The medic box is the place to look for. Our treasure is the first aid kit (FAK) here and is placed inside the medic box which is full of FAK. Different conditions require different approach. We are proceeding to learn about each of them. Following conditions can be encountered with:

  • Fire
  • Fall and Hit damage
  • Fatigue
  • Injury
  • Medkit
  • Damage
  • Drowning

To Use Medkit

  • ACTION menu to be opened
  • TREAT SELF to be selected
  • Space Bar (Action Key) to be pressed for confirmation

For Injury

  • [~] to be pressed in order to open fast commands
  • INJURED to be reported

Alternative

  • For status reports-press [5]
  • For injured-press [4]

Points To Remember

  • FIRE – In case of fire, move away, though, you have armors to protect yourself, still it is dangerous. It is as dangerous as a bullet hit.Heep safe distance.
  • FATIGUE – In this case, when the character starts breathing heavily, hold on, do not move, rest for a while. All other actions take long time to complete in case of fatigue. Current load can also be a reason.
  • FALL AND HIT DAMAGE – The damage caused by falling from heights can be mitigated by using the armors. The damage caused, depends on the mass of the body and the speed.
  • DAMAGE – Damage can again be reduced using the armors and also by using other safety gears like-a helmet, safety vest etc. The reason of the damage can be the bullets or explosives. Equip yourself properly as it is important to mitigate the affect because it negatively affects your movements.
  • DROWNING – When you are under water for a long period of time and that too sans a re breather, there will be a crisis situation in terms of oxygen supply. Go to the surface fast and catch on to breath.

Hence, moving step by step, with a sound knowledge of all the shortcuts and commands to use the FAK – First Aid Kit will help you survive and emerge as a winner. Go, enjoy this virtual world.

About Danny (Escape trailers)

Camping at the beautiful Wokas Lake Forestry campground with our friends. The water was crystal clear and the lake was refreshing! Even Fani, our dog, who is NOT a water dog, found herself submerged from time to time. The last picture is our overnight in the grand metropolis of Campbell River, looking out at Quadra Island...our next destination. #escapetrailers

  1. Arma 3 is a real War Simulator. Has nothing to do with Call of Duty. So if you look for the best, look at Arma series in general. Nice post man, thanks for the effort.
