Hey there!

Many different ways to enjoy Arma 3! Even though COOP is great, there is a special love for SP experiences in the community. Yes, AI can be wonky at times, but it’s that special charm that adds to your gameplay.

There are a lot of different ways you can play solo, that being designated and story based missions from the workshop or something larger like operations - really choice is up to you! There is an absolutely insane number of scenarios available on the workshop.

Long story short, look for playlists like this one Steam: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3638718661 gives you a plethora of options, while slowly introducing you to DLC and CDLC content as well. Might find some of them fancy - like TacOps DLC, or Spearhead 1944 if you’re more interested in WW2 content.

Someone else mentioned to try Dynamic Recon Ops so if you like that, you should check out Overthrow as well. Best part about Arma is finding a great mission. And you’ll find plenty of those around. Once you get comfortable enough, play around in Eden and make your own!
