I found Arma 3 to be my favorite Arma game played. It's a fun simulator that supports mods (which can bring in even more realism).

*TLDR is at the bottom*

Unlike Arma 2, you can customize your whole entire person. You can put hats on your guy, place different scopes on your gun, wear a mask if you want. It's amazing!

Now one of the problems I have with the game is the DLC. It isn't required to get the DLC, but highly recommended. If you wear any DLC items that you don't have, there will be ads popping up in your face, which is a big no. BUT I do understand why Bohemia does this.
I do want to get the Jets DLC and LoW DLC, but I currently don't have any money to spare for them. But that doesn't stop me from enjoying this amazing game.

Another problem, which happens with everyone, is low framerate. This game is awful with its framrate. At silent, and calm points you can get up to 50 frames. But once you go into the battlefield, you're getting a max of 30 frames, sometimes dipping down to 10 frames. There isn't really any way to fix this permanently, but a buffy computer could help?
After playing with the game for a while, you'll get used to the horrid framerate, and play it properly.

My last problem (which is also VERY MINOR) is the walking, and running. If you have to walk from point a-b without a vehicle, then your ♥♥♥♥♥♥. This part of the game is what I'd like to call "Walking Simulator". You just walk for 10 minutes straight doing jack-all.

TLDR: Arma 3 is a fantastic game, but it's not optimized to its max, and has a few bugs and problems. It does support a lot of mods which can make this game even better. I would highly recommend buying this game if you have the money, and you're into simulators.
