Day 2 in a series of videos about Kerbal Space Program. My friend Michael and I are competing to see who can be first to the Mun. We're not reading any instructions, tutorials or other documentation. We're just going to figure it out as we go along.
In today's episode I manage to make a rocket that is roughly capable of making it to the Mun. It's not all good news though as my wobble problems have worsened. Thanks to some experiments, time has advanced to the point where the moon is directly overhead. Whilst this makes the journey shorter it introduces new demands such as braking.

The ten best single player ArmA 3 missions you can play with Ravage. Got to have several, apply engaging adjectives, bit of alliteration, repeat key words, make a promise... I'm really great at this SEO nonsense.

The Aliens films are true classics and deserve an ArmA implementation. Phantom has taken the excellent Max Aliens mod and created a mission that stays true to the cannon of the Aliens films. And it's better than the disappointment that was Colonial Marines.
Want to run around like Hicks or Hudson screaming "Game over, man Game over!" or "Take off and nuke the site from orbit. It's the only way to be sure."? Well this is the mission for you. It's a task-based mission that builds on the Aliens film and gives you a glimpse into the events at Hadley's Hope on LV-426.
This is my first playthrough and I will be returning to it later, so expect to see another video of this mission in a couple of weeks.
You can download the mission from the Steam Workshop here:

If you have difficulty with collecting the intel items in task one, I've made a map of all the locations:

IMPORTANT: This mod is quite out of date. It hasn't been updated in three and a half years. It was designed to be as compatible as possible for as long as possible (previous attempts broke with every update to the DayZ mod). It does still work although it doesn't support every feature of the latest DayZ mod updates (no base-building, for example).
The video refers to things that no longer really exist, chiefly the beta patch. Previously the ArmA games used GameSpy for matchmaking and one had to manually install beta patches from time to time. Since the demise of GameSpy, Bohemia moved the ArmA games to the Steam update system. So if you have them installed on Steam, there is no need to install a beta patch. Consequently, there is no beta patch shortcut to modify. Instead, just make a shortcut to the game's main executable and modify that instead.
Also, it's worth saying that I didn't create any of the mods on our forum. Whilst I will try to help you with any problems with those, I don't know every aspect of all of them.
If you still want to give this a go, feel free. If you have any problems, leave a comment and I'll try to help you. It's been rather a long time since I even ran this myself, but I won't leave you with a broken game if I can help it.

Suicide Guy is a platform puzzle game available now on Steam. It's cheap, cheerful and rather fun. I enjoyed the creativity of it and I was spurred on by wanting to see the next level. #suicideguy
I was given this game for free, though I don't get paid anything on top of that. I get offered a fair amount of free games, but turn down any that I wouldn't have wanted to play anyway.

Long gameplay of Osiris: New Dawn. It's a space survival crafting game and it's in Early Access. It's very good though and very playable already.
Note: Don't watch this if you intend to play the game, because it's full of spoilers. And this is a game where the joy of discovery is paramount. Likewise, I've not read any hints, tips, guides, wikis, FAQs, etc. I haven't even read a review of the game. All I know is the name.

A new and interesting ArmA mission, based on the film, The Running Man. Can you survive the hunters to win $10M? Better yet, can you beat your friends? It works as a single player mission, but works best as a multiplayer one.

Spintires is a simulation of 1980s and 1990s Soviet offroad vehicles. In the full game, you'll be lurching along forest roads to collect timber and deliver it to wherever it is that 1980s Russians want their wood dropped off.
I've tried a few offroad games over the years and they've all been pretty disappointing. This is easily the best one ever made. If you're only ever going to play one offroad driving game, then this should be it
It's the most sophisticated simulation of mud and water ever seen and looks stunning. Careering through channels of muddy water and skidding down grassy banks is surprisingly fun.
After a successful Kickstarter campaign, the full game is in development. The free tech demo is available from here:
http://www.spintires.com/
Mods and extra vehicles are available from the forums on the same site and don't require any purchase to get access to them.

Old Man is a new mission from Bohemia. It is in beta at the moment and needs to be downloaded from the Steam Workshop (link below). It's an open-world sandbox mission with lots of quests available to you that play out in real-time. It's rather fun. It's set on Tanoa, so requires you to own the Apex expansion.
