Will be one hell of a tool for realism units and their Ops. Having one guy control the Opfor, while the 60 guys react to it to achieve a goal is great.
The most fun I've ever had in an Arma game came from dicking around with about 15 guys on a private server, where the host was just spawning enemies and moving them about as if he was playing a RTS. The surprising thing was it was using default AI (Not Zeus AI or any modded shit) and how fucking good it was. They would suppress a corner or alleyway they spotted us in, break off into two groups and flank it while the first group kept shooting at it.
So we adapted and started pulling back a hundred meters or so, moving across a hundred or two, and coming back. It was just ring around the rosie in a city. Good AI and a human commander versus All human fire teams in Arma is fucking amazing and everyone should try it once. Especially with ACE and JSRS. It really is the closest thing you can get to real combat without being in the military
Seems like there's a lot of room for griefing.

Like with any DnD campaign, you must have a trusted DM.
Seems awesome, but really hard to execute on random servers and so sadly I will have little enjoyement out of it.
this is going to be sweet with friends

If the server will have a dedicated gamemaster who's good at it I don't see why it wouldn't work on random servers.
I can imagine many people giving the player a pistol and then spawning a ton of tanks.
Reminds me a bit of Zombie Master.
Its free btw, it's in the description (actually at the end of the video too, developers please stop this, DLCs are associated with paid content)

I can imagine bad Zeus's zapping a player that's doing too good.
Yeah and I hope it is usable with bots
automerge
According to the website theres gonna be a livestream on the 15th
holy shit
look at that draw distance
I hope the Zeus view can be used for editing scenarios, sometimes being limited to the 2D editor is a pain in the ass
lmao the lodding on that jeep at the start
Does this remind anybody else of Sleep Is Death a little? looks awesome
Did that man just lightning strike a tank to death? I did not think they would literally give you the powers of Zeus.
I wonder if it can be applied to Singleplayer and editor aswell, so you can create wars in real time.
If I'm ever Zeus i'm going to spawn 100 goats behind a hill from a player and have them all charge over the hill at the player at the same time while flares are going up.

Who doesn't Bohemia give us a 3d editor anyway?

imagine it's near the end of the mission, the players are heading towards a helicopter to be extracted, and as the helicopter begins to land, a bolt of lightning strikes it and causes it to spin around and crash into the ground, and the players have to book it to a secondary extraction while being chased by reinforcements who "heard the crash" (got spawned in)
could be pretty bloody cool

I thought that was the only bad part of the video. A bit silly for a milsim.
i want to make a completely one sided matchup but help the guys that are at a disadvantage the whole way through
Seeing this made me realize how much I missed a good round of ArmA. Still getting the FP arma popups then and when but I never respond... Well currently because Exams. I need to check the ArmA Thread again!
Looks cool but that music is absolutely beautiful.
Already excited to play this in some LAN game. This is exciting because i always long for awesome battle landscapes with explosions, bullets flying into the air and all that and it seems that can be done with this, but without the whole scripting/timing thing.
Also, if you were to play this DLC it would be obvious to only pick friends/known servers or just ones with a high player count. Because obviously anyone can simply spawn a few tanks and helicopter to 'grief'.
Facepunch Server/Night anyone?
I don't know why, but i'm suddenly imagining a stray bullet flying through the air and 'killing' the Zeus player due to a glitch that still renders them physical or something.
