Well... i recall reading about "Life as we dont know it" somewhere before, on diferent types of living organisms. If NASA is about to reveal that they discovered a new type of living organism on earth, wich they believe could survive on Mars it might be a little soon to announce ET..

The first mission was the only one i actually liked so far... its all too COD'ed for me, why cant they make great campaigns like Resistance?

Hold lft shift and numpad minus, release both and type endmission.

There isnt anything to spoil?

Hmm how come we cant disable the expantions in the expantions menu? I'd like to disable PMC lite.

Very strange campaign... :crazy: .

See it like this.. with BAF BIS was very generous, with PMC.. they expect you to be generous this time :D .

@Second. I got tired of that "2, engage that men" stuff many years ago aswell, if the terrain is more or less open enableAttack works well (mygroup enableAttack false), the a.i. will stay in formation instead of using the old suicide bomber tactics ("2, engage that man!"). Makes for more realistic squad behaviour and helps alot if you use high command with a platoon sized force, your squads will have better unit cohesion instead of running all over the place like headless chicken. As for OA.. it could/should have been better but im alot more happy with it that i was with Arma 2, infact im actually happy that i dont have to play A2 anymore, just wish Arrowhead had shipped with a decent campaign and missions...

Liar :D .

http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma2:_Startup_Parameters#exThreads "C:\Program Files\Bohemia Interactive\ArmA 2 Operation Arrowhead\arma2oa.exe" -nosplash -skipintro -exThreads=3 All you had to do mate :butbut: ...

I read the beta threads but people were still reporting the same problems 'introduced' in 1.55. And are still using -exThreads=3 to make the game (OA/CO) playable again.

1.55 completely broke OA, i even thought about sticking to 1.54 until the next final.. 1.55: -Performance degradation over time. -Buildings and world objects switching on and off (depending on camera position) after some play time. -Black "receiving" screen restarting the graphics. -Lod problems and slowdowns. -exThreads=3 seems to fix the above problems, im still testing but so far OA 1.55 final + -exThreads=3 seems the same as 1.54, maybe even a little better.. I havent tried the 2 betas released after 1.55, can anyone with a dual core cpu confirm this?

On the other hand BAF was packed with good content while PMC is packed with crappy stuff..

Wrong section... the a.i. has been tweaked before and it broke every single time. Its easy to conceptualise how it should work but making it nice and perfect is a whole diferent matter.. im sure if it was easy the a.i. would be pro drivers and pilots by now.. In 1.55 the a.i. seems to be working "well", atleast better than 1.54 so i just hope they wont break it again..

Takistan is only heavier when there are buildings nearby, but BIS compensated by making the towns very small so that shouldnt be the problem.. There must be something wrong with the buildings in A2 and OA, Takistan should run perfectly since its nowhere near as complex as Chernarus or Sahrani and the LOD switching is much more noticeable than before.

If the game feels jerky when the frame rate is high then it wont make any diference, it will be the same at 75, 120 or whatever your system can pull. There is a problem with the current patch (1.55) so you might want to wait for the next one or roll back (reinstall).

Theres a few videos of them on YT too, enthusiastically atacking the mountains with heavy caliber machinegun fire, mortars and arty..

Just compare the ACE M1's with the BIS ones and tell me who the pro's are? Real virtuality is a great piece of software but i think BIS should focus on the engine and hire some real talent for the game design..

I'd like to know wtf is wrong with the A2 buildings... i dont apretiate trading large towns for small ones that load slowly and destroy frame rates just because they look prettier. I've read that Sahrani runs even better in the A2 engine so i think the problem lies in the game assets rather than the engine itself? I miss the large towns and the pretty south sahrani vegetation!

Perhaps you could specify wich economic interests in Afghanistan justify the billions the US have spent in reconstruction, aid and improving living conditions and local economy? Stop posting nonsense.. justice and tradition :rolleyes: .. Edit: Read the AAR, its actually a worthy read.

That makes the taleban fine artists then... the outposts were abandoned anyway. Afaik valley of death is Taleban turf..

In the flashpointversum.. yes, although it was more common to come across US soldiers carrying M21's and G36's instead. Edit: The units look professional to me, perfect actually, except for the russian officer....

There are tutorial missions in the game.. just try them, they are actually more fun than the real missions, atleast OA's. Edit: The Operation Flashpoint way worked better... left click, right click, boom!

I noticed significant a.i. improvements betwean 1.54 and 1.55... the a.i. moves much better now.

I tried recently, the sp is still broken on d3d11 :mad: . Vietcong supported 64 players.. it had its problems but its been 7 years.. Its a shame everyone falls for these stupid COD games, its like they are saying: "No, dont bother making new and better games, give us the same 10 year old crap twice a year and its all good!" I swear the only reason system requirements go up these days is for intel/amd/nvidia to sell new hardware..
