Shame that Steel Beasts bores me to sleep.

Loving what I see so far. The voice system seems to be nicely tweaked, more natural. Hoping VERY much that Zeroing ability for the ACOG scope is included. Haven`t seen this as of yet. I have been waiting for a game to have this since Delta Force 2.

It is there for the Sniper rifles, but as of yet have not seen a vid showing it for the ACOG mounted Assault rifles.

When you post a youtube video please embed it so people aren't forced to leave the forums unless they want to, it's not difficult to use the youtube button.

[Reverend Crast 10]

What about in-game addon manager - is it there?

[Wolfstriked 11]

Where did this person get the new kickback effect in OA from.Its not in any videos of OA that I have seen so far.

Sorry...do not know how to embed videos.

It's not difficult, there's even a youtube button....

You just use the last part of the Youtube URL so it looks like this:

does OA perform better then Arma2?

[SEALVI 10]

does OA perform better then Arma2?

Yes. Users and BIS have said OA optimizes the game engine very well. Plus, you're not loading millions of trees.

[enad 11]

Anyone else getting CRAP FPS at lower settings than what you ran ArmA 2 at?

I would get like 45-60 FPS on ArmA 2. With OA, at lower settings its mid 20's through mid 30's. :(

Kinda disappointing!

How are you able to play AO already? I thought you were in New York?

that is very nice to hear, cant wait to try it out.

One more thing, how to install OA? does it conflict with arma 2?

Although I still cant activate my installation, I can tell you that the setup exe creates a shortcut called Arma 2 Combined Operations. So I imagine it allowes you to play both from the same shortcut. One thing I did notice when it was installing was that it re-installed the 1.07 patch. However when I check the properties of the OA exe, it comes up as file version number 1.52.71.612

Yep the germans is 1.51.something apprently so im guessing since it got released early there is no patch on it, and maybe theres gona be a patch on the actually release day of the game maybe to make it to 1.07 standards i dunno and match everyones versions.

What about the faces?

They all look good like some screens? There are plenty of them?

[enad 11]

The new faces are insane! They all look great.

But FPS is sadly alot worse than ArmA 2. So much for FPS improvments! :(
