Hoot1988 0 Posted May 19, 2011 It certainly is. I gave it a google. Any shots of her ass when she was out of the water have black tarpaulin over the propeller. Must be a secret design. TBH I hope it is one of her sister ships, Agamemnon or Ajax, their names are just better! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sethos 2 Posted May 19, 2011 Why did you have to do that ?? now your a bigger idiot... take a classic game such as Mass Effect... guess what !!!! It uses physx... but no one probably noticed did they ? thats because Physx just like Havok can work off the CPU... with the same performance... Physx is scalable.. so you can calculate simple calculation just fine on your CPU... But if they choose to crunch some serious numbers they can offload it to a CUDA compatible card to speed it up.... For consumer support they will have 'basic Physx' calculated from your CPU... I actually work with these engines and you don't have the slightest clue on what you're talking about. PhysX is not "scalable", it has toggable features depending on the developer but it'll still shit all over my i7 with even basic features the GPU could calculate without breaking a sweat. Mafia II a great example, enable PhysX and it'll bog down an overclocked i7 until you start manually removing PhysX files from the folder to reach an optimal level. PhysX is designed for CUDA and the GPUs heavy calculations, not CPU calculations. Mass Effect is a piss poor example because it doesn't take advantage of ANY advanced PhysX features WHATSOEVER.

SWAT_BigBear 0 Posted May 19, 2011 I'm not 100% on this, but I'm sure I read somewhere that you can have a second nVidia card just to shovel PhysX onto. No reason why you couldn't have ATI + older nVidia card just to handle PhysX Yes, I remember from 09' with proper tweaking. http://forums.guru3d.com/showthread.php?t=284463 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dm 9 Posted May 19, 2011 All of your anti physX rage is based on the assumption that hardware acceleration will be enabled. There hasnt been any confirmation that this is the case ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nettrucker 144 Posted May 19, 2011 Those who act like mindless fan boys won't be missed anyway too.You shall merge to your basement.Burn Fan Troll! !!!Fuck YEAH!!! thats the right way to get costumers force theme to buy a new OS that cost a few hundred bucks and a new GPU + a New bug ridden game(OFP,ARMA1,ARMA2,OA,BAF,PMC). But yeah I forgot this time it will be different, like it was always. Mhhhhhh I bet Microsoft and Valve and EA codmasters Bioware and Ubisoft are waiting to copy your system of costumer acquisition. Damn somehow it feel like a returning nightmare. You hope this time it wont happen but it always comes different. Nobody forces you to buy anything. You don't like the BIS franchise because it's always buggy at release. Don't buy it it's as simple as that. kind regards Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

antoineflemming 14 Posted May 19, 2011 (edited) +1That definitely isnt Takistan look at THESE screens. Compare, and tell me that those maps in the ArmA screens don't look at least similar to Takistan: http://images.bit-tech.net/content_images/2010/06/arma-ii-operation-arrowhead-review/10.jpg http://www.armedassault.info/ftp/pics/addons/RKSL_pre_rel_typhoon1.jpg http://images.bit-tech.net/content_images/2010/06/arma-ii-operation-arrowhead-review/10.jpg http://dev-heaven.net/attachments/10937/arma2oa_2011-02-21_12-28-30-14.jpg http://dev-heaven.net/attachments/10359/TakiGreenSight2.jpg Those places weren't Europe like the ArmA 3 story says. So tell me where those places are. I think it's at least possible that we could see an ArmA 3 version of already existing locations.

hellfire257 3 Posted May 19, 2011 You know it's set in the future, because all the trees have died...WHERE ARE THE TREES ? It's an FPS saving feature. :p Why must people whinge? They've only seen 9 screenshots and a couple of lines of text. How can you judge an entire game from that? FPDR Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KEVINMGXP 20 Posted May 19, 2011 yeah all nice pictures but i see one thing that was bugging me in ArmA series so far, Side arm holsters without Side arms in it :D I know it is nitpicking, but please put them in such nice units needs to be completed this time ;) kind regards How can you judge an entire game from that? because thats how people and costumors are, they devolop we buy and play it so we like to nitpick lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OB1 10 Posted May 19, 2011 Mass Effect is a piss poor example because it doesn't take advantage of ANY advanced PhysX features WHATSOEVER I am baffled by your incompetence to see... What you said there about Mass Effect is perfect.... That example is showing you that Physx can be used for ragdoll just like havok... It is not a Physx Feature.. Its a feature that all physics engines can do... thats the point !!! Where does it say Arma 3 is coming with toggable Physx features ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Placebo 31 Posted May 19, 2011 However, the mission is compromised and the task force destroyed, leaving Cpt. Scott Miller washed ashore upon the hostile island. In his effort to carry out the mission, he will face the dangers of modern warfare, an unforgiving environment, and the consequences of his own decisions...I'm sure my fears will be unfounded but please don't tell me this means COD like Lone Wolf aspects of the game... Funnily enough the storylines I've read so far remind me so much of Flashpoint (ours not some derpy shit using the name) & Resistance type storylines it almost gave me goosebumps!
