Game 2 Performance Optimization

[guyguy1 0]

Due to the growing number of users upgrading to Vista and buying dual/quad core processors, it would be crazy to release Game2 in 2008/2009 with only single core support. Also, by then, a lot of peoplw will have Vista. As the numbers of users grow, I believe Game2 should be optimized for multicore processors and Vista to squeeze out the best performance possible.

Pros:

More cores means more processes. That can unlock some visual goodies such as DAMAGE DECALS instead of the traditional damage texture. Also, more processing power could support a variety of other things that Game2 should be built upon (say...real-time campaign going on while the player is playing? I dunno, just some ideas). Hopefully, it is revolutionary.

Cons:

More work for BIS

And also... servers would run sweetly with their multiple cores... which at the moment ArmA does not optimise...
