rekrul 7 Posted May 20, 2011 What I don't get is why Nvidia has an Arma3 profile a year before the release (and we all know it's gonna be delayed 4-6 months). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steakslim 1 Posted May 20, 2011 DX10 is the minimal requirement, but it might support DX11. (Like Civ V, for example.)No official info yet. Yeah i mentioned yesterday that they'll probably go the route a lot of dev's have done lately (like with Shogun 2 and Crysis 2) and tack on DX11 features rather than build on it completely. That's assuming they go anywhere near DX11 at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
purepassion 22 Posted May 20, 2011 Do you think terrain tesselation could be possible? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
britrb 0 Posted May 21, 2011 What I don't get is why Nvidia has an Arma3 profile a year before the release (and we all know it's gonna be delayed 4-6 months). This may be something to do with BIS using some sort of PhysX SDK? Not really sure about all that stuff though. Brian :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steakslim 1 Posted May 21, 2011 Do you think terrain tesselation could be possible? I'm crossing my fingers on that one, especially since I don't see much of a performance hit from tesselation, though I can't speak for everyone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
elvinjones 10 Posted May 21, 2011 I will buy Arma 3 for sure. It's not TOO far in the future, and I'm sure it will attempt to be realistic in the same vein as all BIS games. It looks Great! An as yet unvoiced physx opinion: Regarding PhysX, I have seen inaccurate analogies ("it's like saying that because I can't have a Ferrari, no one can", or "I won't buy this because I have an AMD card"). The real issue for me is that physx is used by nVidia as a tool to gain MARKETshare. It's a cool sdk that, in imaginationland where companies put something like graphics advancement before their bottom lines, would be great. Instead people who otherwise would have been able to get better effects (if not for lack of game development monetary subsidies) will be limited. Then again maybe physx will be able to be hacked for this particular game...:) Watercooling here I come! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mattxr 9 Posted May 21, 2011 What I don't get is why Nvidia has an Arma3 profile a year before the release (and we all know it's gonna be delayed 4-6 months). Thats becuase BIS probably have a game version is which they are using (screen shots show this) to test all the PhysX componets and they have most likely Beta Testers who are on the job who need these profiles to run the game well :rolleyes: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

deadpool2894 14 Posted May 21, 2011 (edited) i think i figured out of BI hacking problems out it has something to do with arma 3 look at the map that they found in the box earlier it show routes of where europe has been captured or being attacked and then read the arma 3 story line paragraph it says that europe is the last stand for the nato force i put some of it together a little after reading into it about it has nothing to do with p8p8 it is just some thing about the arma 3's story line and the hms ship earlier probably has to do someting with the underwater pics Edited May 21, 2011 by deadpool2894 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zipper5 74 Posted May 21, 2011 D.Ginzbourg, the "hacking" was fake. It was an alternate reality game by BIS to unveil Arma 3. If you're getting spam, it means you're getting it from/through someone/something else. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
D.Ginzbourg 10 Posted May 21, 2011 did anyone find what GIBS3000 means? I've done a short google search and found that gib is a dead player in a video game.... Can it mean 3000 casualties? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
