Julian 0 Posted December 27, 2006 did you read the system requirements for arma?  your system should definatley be able to run it easily, mine does you want to see my specs? ahahha  just joking, try the game already! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sgt FreeMan 0 Posted December 27, 2006 ok thanks but what about windows vista that wont mess with the game will it >>> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jasono 0 Posted December 27, 2006 Vista uses some graphic memory doesnt it? I'm not sure if it will stop using it when a game is launched but it should be ok. The rest of the specs are good though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scillion 0 Posted December 27, 2006 When OFP came out I don't believe that anyone could run it with everything on high. I sure couldn't. AA has come along and some people can run everything on high (except shadows in forests). But as for me, I'm at about the same point I was at with OFP when it came out. Medium/low settings.

Bunks 0 Posted December 27, 2006 Guess you dont see the sarcasm but let me make it clear. Like OFP, they built this game to need rigs with specs not out yet to play with frame rates that are considered playable (60 fps) at high settings. But the engine doesnt take advantage of any new hardware features so it never really will (just like OFP). ^ thats about what it will take deano Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
