All Changes from the Arma Reforger Health Update

Overview: Despite its name "Health," the latest update for Arma Reforger offers more than just health-related content. It includes new vehicles, combat mechanics, and quality-of-life improvements. However, the main focus is on the new medical system, and we'll explain all about it.

New Medical System

With the new medical system, you can examine wounded soldiers for their injuries and provide them with various medical items once you've identified their wounds. In addition to bandages, there are now three new medical items:

  • Saline-Bag (Saline Solution)
  • Morphine (Painkiller)
  • Tourniquets (to stop heavy bleeding)

Additionally, characters no longer die instantly from severe wounds. Instead, they fall unconscious and can be revived by team members.

New Vehicles

The update introduces two new vehicles, one for each faction. Both vehicles serve the purpose of providing medical assistance at the frontlines or quickly evacuating wounded soldiers. A particularly exciting feature is that you can load injured soldiers into the vehicle, then hop in the back and administer first aid during the ride.

The two vehicles are:

  • UAZ 452-A "Buchanka"
  • Hmmv 997 "Maxi-Ambulance"

Ballistics Overhauled + Helmets & Vests

To reduce the risk of severe injuries, you can use the new and updated vests and helmets. The developers at Bohemia Interactive have adjusted vests and helmets to respond differently to various calibers or grenades in the Health Update for Reforger.

Weapon Resting & Stabilization

With the new Arma Reforger Health Update, you can now rest your weapons. This feature even works without a bipod. Simply approach an object like a crate, press the interaction key, and your weapon will be rested. This provides much higher shooting stability and significantly reduces recoil.

  • New options for customizing your key bindings and pressure style
  • HUD has been redesigned
  • Ragdoll improvements
