Arma 3 has been used to create false reports from war zones including Ukraine, Syria, and Afghanistan, and Bohemia would very much like it to stop.
Arma being one of the most moddable games in the genre may be one of the contributors to this falsified footage problem. Arma 3's Steam Workshop section is full of Ukrainian and Russian cosmetics, models, and scenarios depicting the conflict, all downloadable for free. Of course, that player-made material sits alongside everything from unofficial Star Wars assets and importable T-Rexes to Warhammer Fantasy mods.
So, how can excitable news directors and Facebook users distinguish Arma 3 videos from actual combat footage? Bohemia has a few tips:Even dated smartphones have the ability to provide videos in HD quality. Fake videos are usually of much lower quality, and are intentionally pixelated and blurry to hide the fact that they’re taken from a video game.To add dramatic effect, these videos are often not captured in-game.
Dear community,We are fully aware that fake videos from our #Arma3 title appear on the internet, pretending to be original videos from various armed conflicts.Here you can read our official statement 👉 https://t.co/jwMNB1AMwl pic.twitter.com/zGoTBGR8NIThe studio also called upon Arma 3 players to do their part to combat misinformation by using Arma 3 footage"responsibly."
"When sharing such materials, please refrain from using 'clickbait' video titles, and always state clearly that the video originated from a videogame and is not depicting real-life events," the studio said."We have seen many Arma players pointing out mistakenly identified footage, which helps viewers understand what they’re seeing.
