Shack Tactical - Unexpected training ambush, November 11th 2009

[PresAndrewJackson]

Wow, you just don't fuck with the guys from ShackTac. I'd really like to participate in your training sessions.

[Sombomombo]

Now THAT is how you play a shooter.

[CPTG0dK1lleR]

Whats this? is it a Video game? Shit it looks realistic.

[MEMELkl]

good job! but there was only 1 guy, so if there were atleast 5 of them, it would be different ending, or atleast half ammount of your squad then it would be definatly different ending

[deathREAPER1856]

when u joing shack tatical are you given your role?

[Dslyecxi]

@deathREAPER1856, no, we're flexible about what people can do.

[tyler4171]

Dslyecxi, I love the tracers, adds a lot of immersion. Is it custom for ShackTac like the ST HUD? And great ambush, response was perfect!

[Dslyecxi]

@tyler4171, it's an ArmA1 video, so they're the 6th Sense tracers from ACE1.

[gameplaya117]

If only gamestop sold this. I gotta find a way to get to Frys Electronics and get this game.

[EkkuZakku]

@gameplaya117 I see it at Walmart all the time

and as for the video, they sure reacted fast XD

[belvucker2]

Excellent work guys, dslyecxi I really think the US Armed Forces should employ you for these kind of virtual exercises. They really do give a taste of how to react to situations like these without wasting lots of money on equipment in the long run.

[galzohar]

Would've been more interesting if the machinegunner wouldn't have been missing them on purpose. I wonder how many would actually survive.

[tremben]

Great bunch of work! This is barely a hint of what happens in such as Patrol Blufor!

[zeepster]

Nice video. When you have some time, please upload more shactac vids. They're always nice to watch.

Dslyecxi, out of interest, can you post your pc specs with which you play arma2? Cheers.

[360viper117]

@zeepster this is ArmA 1 just to let you know mate :)

[Senchiruna]

I could have sworn that was OFP until I saw the clutter.

[HOBOKERN]

Me likie-da-ShackTac. :-)

[Antagonist77]

Awesome video. Makes you realize how fast it all happens. Were you going easier on them, because they were new? I noticed that some of your shots fell short in the end.

[Dslyecxi]

I wasn't shooting to kill, if that's what you're asking. Wasn't the intent of it.

[kardondo]

that's operation flashpoint not even Arma !!!

[rising03]

That's Arma 1...

[cmbunit01]

Wow, that's badass. They did a really good job of bailing out of the trucks.

[Vultar666]

Not staged? Then I am very impressed.

[welk0metohell]

ArmA 1? Why not Arma 2?

[Dslyecxi]

We play about 30/70 A2/A1 currently. Waiting for a few things to happen with A2 before we fully adopt it.

[ghost7137]

will shacktac be playing the new expansion operation arrowhead when that comes out?

[Dslyecxi]

Most likely, yes.

[Bauholzwolf]

Is there a sound modification being used by the ambusher in this video?

[Dslyecxi]

Yes - VOP sound.

[BollocksUtwat]

ACE?

[Dslyecxi]

Of course. :)

[ArakNafein]

Like ACE2?

[BIGBAMM0]

if that wasn't staged it was very impressive.

5*'s

[Dslyecxi]

Nope, no staging - they were expecting me to be in the village they were attacking (along with many AI), but instead I decided to ambush them in the 'safe' part of their transit. The reaction is what naturally happened at that point.

[BIGBAMM0]

You could have done a little more damage to the right truck as they disembarked. Overall this was well executed and the response was text book.

[Dslyecxi]

I could have, yes. Do you know why I didn't, though? :)

[ChaplainDMK]

judging by how quickly & effectively you aimed at the trucks you would prolly kill half of em b4 they got you xD

[sparks444]

Thats a text book response :)

[josepma94]

i want to join you! how can i ?

[Gargantou]

Man I want to try out for ShackTac so badly but European time-zones make it difficult.

[Dslyecxi]

We have quite a few European players, actually.

[Spyker2041]

european players get european lag when joining us servers though :(

[Gargantou]

Might apply when I get a better comp then, this old piece of junk still struggles from time to time even with ARMA1.*Kicks it*

I'm switching to fibreoptic 100/100 soon enough so hopefully lag won't be that much of an issue.

[blauwen]

thumbs up wish i had a team like that

[stefchollet]

great vid

[arcanesoldierx]

you guys are awesome
