Okay bought the official ENGLISH version of ArmA 2 (and received it today). Installed it, started up the game. Everything works and in English. I downloaded the latest patch 1.02, installed it and run the game again, but to my (unpleasant) surprise ArmA 2 is now in German?! What's this about? And how do I fix this?

Game crashes. Sometimes after 30 mins, sometimes after 5. In short; game is unplayable. I already submitted a support ticket as well including all the files. But I think this should get solved, pronto. Was Armed Assault 1 also badly coded like 2? My ArmA2.cfg: language="English"; adapter=-1; 3D_Performance=100000; Resolution_Bpp=32; Resolution_W=1920; Resolution_H=1440; refresh=85; winDefW=1920; winDefH=1440; Render_W=1920; Render_H=1440; FSAA=0; postFX=0; HDRPrecision=32; lastDeviceId=""; localVRAM=2146435072; nonlocalVRAM=2146435072; And using this in my shortcut: "E:\Armed Assault 2\arma2.exe" -mod=@English -nosplash -maxmem=2047 -cpuCount=8 -winxp Maybe I overlooked something... Systems specs are in my signature. TY. ---------- Post added at 08:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:16 PM ---------- And I just crashed again.

I did several days ago, but of course no reaction whatsoever. Anyways game has been returned and bought Prototype. Great game and works without crashes!

Well I am not going to download a new OS for just one single game. It means a lot of work; download the OS, create a new partition, install the OS, download the latest drivers for everything, update Directx and install the game. Returning the game and getting a full refund works a lot faster and less of a hassle. This is the first game which crashes continuesly on my new PC; games like Crysis Warhead, Far Cry 2, Fifa '09, Football Manager 2009, etc. etc. etc. All work without problems, except for this game. So... And apparently it crashes also for people with Windows XP (look above). So I have drawn my conclusions and returning this game, now! Maybe I will pick it up from the bargain bin later when the problems / bugs are solved. Cheerios

Windows 7 is also 64 bit.

Still crashes, so I am returning the game today at the gamestore and get a full refund. Maybe I will rebuy it when it's in the bargain bin and fully fixed / patched up.

Well I will give it a go without HT later on today. The game is installed under Vista x64, I also have W7 RC1 but not using it atm.

I loaded the configuration in my bios without the overclock, but the result was the same. I have HT on and I tried 4 and 8, but both crash eventually. I am using 182.50 drivers at the moment, already reverted back to them, but still same result.

I am not turning off my overclock it's 200% stable tested it for over 24 hours with Prime95, OCCT and LinX.

Same here. See specs below.

Vodka!

That says enough about the coding.

I am experiencing CTD's all the time.

Crashes here also all the time. They need to get this fixed, pronto!

Crashes here also all the time. Crap-coded game.

Agreed!

Exactly my point; not normal. The only way I see to fix the flickering is by returning the game to the shop and ask for a full refund, since this game is apparently beta.

You can fix the flickering by returning the game and ask a refund. That really stops the flickering!

Same here as well... Been running around like a chicken without head. This game starts to bore me; incomplete and bug-infested crap. I am thinking about getting a refund for this game beta game. Sigh.

Excellent reply. I agree 100%!

Instead of tweaking performance, how about fixing the ingame crashes / freezes / lockups? And while your at it, also fix the AI of your teammates. They stay back, even with the latest patches... Making this game unplayable, at least for me...

Not only it crashes / hangs / freezes, but the game also: - has problems with textures flashing - poor AI; even with the latest patch 1.02.5xxx-something the AI (your teammates) still stay back. Sigh... - did I mention the game crashes often? Man, I am starting to wish I never had bought this game.

Yup... The game has been poorly developed. I wonder why we put up with these unfinished and badly developed games. Sigh.

Fucking crashes here as well. I wonder for what I paid? An unfinished game probably. Anyways I have 3 days left to return this game. If it doesn't get fixed within the next few days, I am returning this crap bugged game!

I fully agree with this statement. Nothing but problems.
