Potatomasher 0 Posted August 5, 2009 I have to agree, there is absolutely no difference in FPS for me comparing to version 1.02......what a disappointment for me...:mad: I can confirm too that there's no improvement at all. Though i'm not disappointed because there never was supposed to be a performance fixes in 1.03. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CHB68 10 Posted August 5, 2009 Flying to Chernogorsk or Elektrozvadlovsk frames drop from average 35-50 down 9....in words NINE ! With 1.02x I got about 15-20 frames. Not really an improvement at all. :( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ViperNL 10 Posted August 5, 2009 Yes, im sure they made the game run worse and overheat all your videocards just to taunt you all. :rolleyes: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

greenpsycho 10 Posted August 5, 2009 Still 10-15 fps without any reason on low-med settings, hangs, lags, CTD's... my system specs on sysProfile I hate to say it, but if your sysprofile is accurate, thats probably your problem. I think your cpu/mobo/ram combo is killing your gaming performance man. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Watter 10 Posted August 5, 2009 (edited) Installed and noticed a improvement in fps, gone from mid 30's to high 40's with default settings. x48-ds4 mobo 280GTX 4gb corsair ram windows 7 ultimate 64bit Edited August 5, 2009 by Watter Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
xeno 234 Posted August 5, 2009 (edited) Flying to Chernogorsk or Elektrozvadlovsk frames drop from average 35-50 down 9....in words NINE ! With 1.02x I got about 15-20 frames. Can confirm. I flew to Cherno with a C130 (playing on a dedicated server with about 50 people) and my FPS dropped from 50-60 down to 7-9 when I was over the city (and badly stuttering). Once I was over the sea they immediately raised up to 70. What's really worse is that I had every 30 seconds (+/-) a still frame, stuttering. Even more funny, I've never ever encountered the "Receiving" bug during playing before. Today with 1.03 it was the first time it happened. Edit: Many players that were in Teamspeak also confirmed massive frame drops compared to 1.02. Xeno Edited August 5, 2009 by Xeno Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gringo85 0 Posted August 5, 2009 Oh my... the stuff that I'm reading make me think twice before updating or not, especially with no server support, now they said they wanna beta test patches before, did they test it in LAN??? realeasing a patch and no server support is kind of... banana, that's the word Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

the_shadow 0 Posted August 5, 2009 nope.. didnt do a shit for me.. not better, not worse.. perhaps the AI is a little smarter, but still drives like 5 year olds... (getting stuck against buildings/other vehicles when driving) only tried it in SP this far though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GunSlingerAUS 10 Posted August 6, 2009 Still 10-15 fps without any reason on low-med settings, hangs, lags, CTD's... my system specs on sysProfile Sorry Convoke, but with that system you're never going to get decent performance with ARMA2, no matter how many patches they release. The only solution is an upgrade... or wait to see if Op Flashpoint 2 on Xbox rocks, and buy a 360 :p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kramxel 10 Posted August 6, 2009 steam dl is taking forever! how big is this file? and 2Mbps is the only internet I could get :(i would just love to have double digit fps regularly. silly old computer! As it has been stated a million times (scratch that... a million and one), the update is re-downloading the entire game... around 4,3Gb.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
loki 1 Posted August 6, 2009 :( steam users that can not connect to the few 1.03 dedicated servers that are running and wish to go back to 1.02 in order to play MP dedicated again... will have to d/l it all over.... edit: i wish there was a 4th option which stated: No, there is no visable difference.. but i see new issues.

Shinobi575 10 Posted August 6, 2009 AMD 64 Athlon x2 3800+ Media Center; 2.0GHz, 2 gigs of memory, MSI ATI radeon 4850 512 MB 230 Gig hard drive,All settings on normal/high, getting my usual 35-40 FPS, the city fighting has improved a little on the ground, but if youre flying around the big cities the stuttering is quite noticeable at times.

Cann0n Fodder 10 Posted August 6, 2009 My performance has improved by around 5-10 fps in densely populated areas such as cities and towns outside of campaign mode. Now I see 40-60fps and occasional dips into the 30's flying over coastal cities. However I do experience slight stutter regardless of FPS now and again flying over the big coastal cities. Note an SSD cured most of my stutter issues before this patch. The game plays fast and looks great on my 27' monitor at native res and all settings on high except AA which is at normal. While I’m a happy customer at the moment I will be fully satisfied once BIS release a patch to fix my surround sound issue. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
loki 1 Posted August 6, 2009 something from my travels around the community up to this point: i have seen uber rigs and low end have zero issues.. and uber rigs that can't play it more than 5 minutes... i think the issue is that the core of the game is not a stable platform across the board for users. therefore.. patches will continue to fluctuate wildly with end user results... imo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
greenpsycho 10 Posted August 6, 2009 When I try and host my own multi player game I get a error Noentry 'bin\config.bin/RscDisplayMultiplayerSetup/controls/CA_B_West.SideToggle'.Another person that I know has it also. Other then that it seems to run the same so far. Seconded, got the same error in warfare. Performance seems identical, though the AI difference is definitely noticeable (big step forward, IMHO). And unlike other users, my steam update went fine: downloaded the patch quickly, and it was all gravy. My word of advice is always let steam do what it wants to do and don't try and interupt or cancel it, as weird stuff tends to happen. Also, I always verify game cache after download and before I play. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
