There are people with quad core CPUs that can't run it on max settings! I've got an E6600, 4gig DDR2 and an 8800GTS and I have to have most settings on medium.

Well surely they could just enable it for single player and disable it for multiplayer?

I'm glad I'm not the only twisted person on here then I just think you lose some of the effect if you can't see the consequences of your actions. It's a war simulation afterall. I can't see it effecting performance much at all.

Maybe I'm being incredibly sadistic - but does anyone know why you can't see bodies etc in the destroyed/burnt out vehicles anymore? On the original Flashpoint I always thought that was quite good! Right now if you blow up a Blackhawk full of troops you just get an empty burnt out shell - not particularly realistic if you ask me! Another thing that bugs me - is there any way that the devs could remove the awquard transitition between parachuting and landing on the ground? It just feels quite jarring when the screen fades to black and back in quickly when hitting the ground. If it was one flowing movement it would be much better.

I'd like the flight model to be like BF2 - but I'm probably alone on that one I just really enjoyed flying helicopters on BF2 - but it's far too fiddly in OFP/Armed Assault!

I didn't think it was possible to change the max read ahead on the 8800 cards with the latest drivers? Whenever I try it I get blue screens when I start up games.

Yeah, I think the problem is with the 8800 series of cards mainly

Framerates are notably down on 1.5 for me too - using an 8800GTS, 4gig DDR2 and Core 2 Duo 6600. I was barely hitting 25-30fps before, now I'm probably barely hitting 20

Not had my new code yet, so still can't play with the new patch

I just got this email:

On a Saturday? Hmmm - no sign of mine yet

On a Saturday? Hmmm - no sign of mine yet

Yup, after the 1.5 patch I'm also stuck with a game I can't play! I think its absolutely rediculous having 3 activations - especially if every patch you install uses one up! Doesn't look like we're gonna be getting any help till next week either

Agreed - I can't even play the game now because the patch put me one activation over the limit!

I'd love to be able to give my impressions, but the patch put me one activation code over the limit on my German copy! Now I've gotta wait for them to send me a new one which will probably take days
