Context: Arma is a milsim, and Epoch is a mod with basebuilding, where one can place a "frequency jammer" that creates a sphere around it where its owner can build a base (walls, doors, safes, etc), while others (non-owners) are prevented from building anything in the area.
A few friends and I played it for a while. Picked a server, built a base there, did some missions or just random squabbles with other folks, eventually got bored (or distracted by life events), abandoned it all, then repeated on some new server after a few weeks.
One day we were on a server where someone had managed to glitch the jammer underwater - easy to reach but it was considered impossible to destruct as it was out of reach of available firearms and explosives. We realized there was only one in-game weapon that was capable of firing underwater (SDAR), and it had very small damage numbers. Being really stubborn and persistent, we spent over 24+ hours straight, working in shifts, shooting at that jammer, while watching out for the base owners to ensure they can't get anywhere close to open the repair menu.
Upon the destruction of said jammer and announcing the victory, we all univocally decided that enough is enough and we've fully completed the game. Haven't played Arma ever since.
Sounds like you completed it to me, that’s pretty impressive!
I used to be very into Dayz Mod and over the years it devolved into holding FOBs and just maintaining, maintaining, maintaining. Once we held the FOB and fortified it, it was night on impossible to raid if we were online, short of finding and fixing a Chinook with the 4000rpm miniguns on with a great pilot/gunner combo and some ground support.
