CG Man 0 Posted June 23, 2009 Is their enough graphics options to get ARMA II graphics similar to ARMA I? I only want ARMA II for the massive AI improvements and content I can wait till I get a new rig to run the amazing graphics and I want to be able to learn the editor and check out the content while i wait for a new PC biuld.

frederf 0 Posted June 23, 2009 There are graphics settings for ArmA2 that get the same performance as a reasonable setting on ArmA1. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Steakslim 1 Posted June 23, 2009 Just to warn you, there is no word on when the demo is to actually be released, just speculated that it may be sometime early this week, we hope. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chillwi-e 10 Posted June 23, 2009 Hopefully we will see it today...Since it was said we'd see it last week(Mon or Tues) and didn't. Those who already own the game got their 1.2 patch an we got left hanging. We'll be lucky to see a demo in the next couple of weeks.....but let me stop venting. Don't hate me Placebo.

Recnelis2 10 Posted June 23, 2009 Yup, not a word on the demo and the BI guys have more than likely gone home for the day now. Friday is release day here in the US and i was hoping for a little taste before the big day. But at this point i guess i would rather have version 1.3 come out than the demo LOL.

ebud 18 Posted June 23, 2009 Is their enough graphics options to get ARMA II graphics similar to ARMA I? I just reinstalled ARMA I until I can update my hardware because after toning down the settings to get good framerates that were on par with ARMA I, the settings were so low it wasn't worth it. Now back in ARMA I I get really good framerates with really high settings. I think there is really no justification for making too many people edit configs manually to get good performance, the in-game graphic settings really aren't intuitive at all. It's as if all conventions were thrown out the window. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JOGR 0 Posted June 23, 2009 It's the same engine but with more features. I guess both use shader model 2.0 and 3.0? Unfortunately, because of CPU limitations and increased AI complexity, I can't run ARMA 2 with the same quality I run ARMA. I have to disable all post/AA and lower the resolution. However, when running in windowed 1280x on my 1920x display it looks sharp and clear, and with good fps. Just a hint "-window". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
