BigToe 0 Posted January 26, 2011 I have found that playing on a 27" screen brings a new aspect to the game that is just not there when using a smaller screen like my old 22". The depth of the game is almost 3D. BIS really did a great job with the graphics of this game, that you truly cant see untill you open it up. I have to go back to boot camp and practice flying again because the view changed everything. I highly recommend a larger screen that is fast enough to play games on.

jake8787 10 Posted January 26, 2011 Is this a "i've got the biggest one" contest ? If it wasn't for the pic size limit I would start things off:p Its a 50" by the way and my TV is pretty big too;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mosh 0 Posted January 26, 2011 Looks awesome on a 55" LED TV too. :cool: I bet it looks a lot better on that... the plasma only has 1920 x 1080, so it really doesn't look much better than my monitor. I actually found it hard to play Arma on something that big so I'm back to my 22" for now. But for flight sims it was nice. I was just being a smart ass anyways... :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zipper5 74 Posted January 26, 2011 My normal one that I always use is this 37" LCD TV, which still looks pretty awesome, but we got it for free when we bought our LED TV so I figured I should try it on the big screen at least once. :p I would never use it for long periods of time, though. Especially for gaming. It can be a bit hard on the eyes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
faguss 65 Posted January 26, 2011 (edited) Is this a "i've got the biggest one" contest ? Yes but they are talking about something else. Otherwise they would knew it's the resolution that matters, not the screen size. Edited January 26, 2011 by Faguss Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zipper5 74 Posted January 26, 2011 Well, even if the resolution on the LED TV only went up to 1920x1080, the image quality was incredibly crisp and the colors were absolutely perfect. This is the TV, if anyone is at all interested. Using my TrackIR in conjunction with it was also pretty damn cool, heh. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BigToe 0 Posted January 27, 2011 This is somthing new for me I never had a good enough computer to play anything with good graphics. The last computer I had was still an agp card and a pentium 4. I never tried to play on a lcd tv, My wife is going to kill me if I move our tv to my computer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
enad 11 Posted January 27, 2011 I've tried ArmA 2/OA on a 24", 27"(Currently using), and a 40" LED HDTV, and it really 'feels' best on the 27", not too big, not too small. I love it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jockson 10 Posted January 27, 2011 Is that proper LED or the cheapo sidelit not true LED mc thing.... It's edge lit LED I believe, yes. Not necessarily "cheapo" though. It's mostly about the resolution for me. I don't really find playing games on my HDTV all that immersive despite the size tbh. A 2560x1600 30" IPS monitor on the other hand is something else.

SPC.Spets 21 Posted January 27, 2011 this thread is just to let know other people that youre rich and you have a big monitor... my 20' is just fine, and I have another of 32´ that I can NOT use for gaming because its TOO big that I have to turn my head to watch the corners Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maddogx 13 Posted January 27, 2011 this thread is just to let know other people that youre rich and you have a big monitor... My 50" plasma thinks you're just jealous. :D But yeah, the thread has kind of been derailed. I for one am still waiting on those pics. The OP has an awesome rig, so I would really like to see some high res pics taken from. Especially with the visual improvements from the latest beta patch.

Hope it works Yup, you're the OP (original poster, aka thread starter). :) For taking screenshots I would recommend FRAPS. The free version only saves images as .BMP, but there are easy ways to convert them into a compressed format like JPEG. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
