Got the game today and well after all the hype im very sad to say i dont like what i see, visualy very nice scenery but ive seen games made 5 years ago with better weapon graphics and the sounds are terrible the humvee sounds like my milkmans float coming up the road. any ways back to why im posting, i am new to ofp series so i could be just not used to the way things work with these games. When i move my soldier it feels like he is stuttering around when i walk up next to a car its like he is magnetic and it can be hard to walk away from the car like i am stuck to it. when i look left and right it feels like its hard to turn at first then all or a sudden he spins and turns fast. causing me to get motion sickness after playing for more than 10 mins. ive turned settings down to everything normal and screen res 1024 x768 rig spec amd am2 athlon 64 dual core 2.4ghz 2 gigs of ocz 800mhz ram asus m2n32 sli delux mobo Sli 2 x bfg 7900gtx o.c. games running of a raptor drive. If the game will always play out like this i may as well sell it as i cant stand feeling sick from playing this

Thanks M8 See you on the battlefield soon i hope

Hi I was just wondering if anyone who brought a copy of the german version through amazon.de has recieved it yet? I had an email saying it had been dispatched over a week ago yet nothings turned up yet. Anyone else in uk who orderd let me know please thanks

I thought I was the onlyone man im glad i am not alone on this. I first got motion sickness on a PS1 game aliens i think it was. and then on doom on nintendo 64. I finnaly found out what causes mine its tunnels and enclosed spaces, i also get it when im in spectate mode on cod2 if the person im watching waves their gun around while jumping. It aint pleasent for anyone who suffers this your neck goes all hot and you feel like you have heat stroke. I now stop playing as soon as i feel like this but i have carried on before only to end up having to lay down and feeling real dizzy. Im sure its just a select few who suffer from this type of thing but anyone who thinks they are starting to feel sick and dizzy take a break and get some fresh air it will pass, dont carry on untill your vomiting and passing out.

While they are at it, a full list of weapons would be nice.

You know those travel chess sets that open in the middle to make the board and all the pieces are kept inside, I would like to see a metal box design like that and when opened up is a decent sized mouse mat with the Sahrani map printed on it. Im sure the game has a map button but how much easier would it be to look down were your mouse is and to be able to see the map. Soldiers carry useful kit to me thats useful. People could say well a giant poster is as good, My mrs would have kittens if i put posters up in our living room. A 2nd disk with how the game progressed would be cool with some nice images us photoshop users could play with logos etc. My wife just would like to ask for arma logo ear muffs as well hehehehe.

I dont know if were meant to do links to ebay but im sure your a big boy and type in armed assault in the seach lol

As i expected ebays got them on offer now. still not long untill i get a german copy

German copy on order Well done BIS cant wait to hear UK versions gone gold as well then more pre orders

Eurowarriors will be setting up at least 1 server but i would imagine more like 3 as a clan we have been waiting to get our teeth into arma. Eurowarriors.com

wheres it say its on ultra low settings? look same as the screenies i seen of most of the people who shouldnt have had it and played on the average pc to me. This is ArmA with high settings and this is ArmA with low settings If you cant see the difference you need new glasses I never see reviews with low-quality screens but with ArmA, reviewers always crank up the settings when making screens.. Maybe the game has a setting like in cod2 where you can choose what directx you run, i know in cod2 running on directx7 gave you better frame rates on slower cards but you did paid for losing quality in the image. maybe Arma has same option ?. I just hope we dont pay for these adjusments in multi player, a few games i know it pays to turn down ya graphics then snipers laying in grass stand out a mile away. fingers crossed this aint the same with arma.

Thanks for everyone who took the time to vote on my poll last week the results are below. This week I want to find out what people will be doing who have to wait untill next year for the game. The News That A Download Version Wont Happen Untill After UK Release Date Has Forced Me To Buy German & Get An Evening Class At The Local Community College In How To Speak German. Single player or Multi Options Votes Results Single Player Mainly 42 [18.26%] Mutli Player Mainly 67 [29.13%] Both 121 52.61%]

i would image the countrys that have a november release have already printed the box covers etc so to go gold just a few days before release would still be possible to get games out on the shelf. I seem to remember x factor last year the winner had his song out for christmas and it was either 3 or 5 days from printing disk to shop

Dark Omen, I would check ebay once its out in germany, im sure people will be buying copies to sell on. As for people who think this is a usless thread, simple dont enter it then. Some of us like to know what others are thinking, i certainly want to see how many other people in the UK for instance want to play the game before uk release so i can find a server and play along side them. if i wanted to fight just germans and poles, i would go into my local town center on a friday night and wait untill the pubs shut.

Let's all pray that they don't opt for SF... Please no starforce! It wont be PB either, not from disk any ways, theres no news on PB web site that they are making it for arma.

please let us know if it has the choice of different languages on install.

I have no idea but lets hope its not like that BS in BF2 that with a simple scan of the map you get red dots to aim at. it ruined bf2 and the same would ruin ARMA. I dont know how they work and some more info would be nice, maybe fellow players can call it co-ordinates to the people using the artillary.

good to hear - now if a video showing this artilery were to be made... oh yes... think of the dancing bananas Better Still a demo Maybe if we have a whip round and raise some funds placebo could slip a demo into out pockets and we will just have to fight over who gets first dibs lol. Seriously is there any news on a demo release date yet ? i would sleap easier with a date in my lil head lol

That video was awsome just one more reason for me to get all excited. thanks for sharing.

I am just curious how many people buy a game like this for single player or multi. The last few games like this i have brought i only have been interested in the multi player mode. bf2 & cod2 for example i have never played the single player modes. any hows lets see. woops sorry about the spellings

This was new how? who said it was NEW? Just put it up as its out of a magazine and not some speculation from a spotty teenager.

I just Brought PC Gamer Magazine and there was a small article under there eye witness section about ARMA "I QUOTE" The massive war-based FPS will be Released in the Czech Republic and Germany by November and we expect the UK version to follow early 2007 Hah bet you weren't expecting that Huh? A quiet little announcment for what might be possibly be the best first person wargame on the PC? this is operation flashpoints younger brother built by the same devs but with a new modern quise thanks to codemasters and developers bohemia not seeing eye to eye. Official ETA Q1 07 Expected February Read into that what you like, but if the official release is to be next year i wouldnt expect a demo to soon <sniff> German amazon here i come

A Multi Player Demo would be the best thing they could give the unlucky ones like myself who have to wait untill after xmas or untill they do the download option. Reason being COD2 was released a week or 2 before the uk and i seem to remember cracked copies of the game on torrent sites with cracked server hosting files and i belive the same happend with bf2. You could say well they had demos out and thats true but the cod2 one was single player. BF2 ok i cant say much as there demo was a multi player. I just dont want to see a great game go down the drain, bf2 was a big let down for me cod2 is about as tactical as a BUSH speach. The games got so much following and the hype every week gets bigger and bigger, i just hope its BIS releasing the demo and not the publishers.

usless to you maybe but for a clan member like myself who enjoys playing against other people online its nice to see, as somone else posted twl ladders etc are for the clans who like to battle it out and many of them play soley to play with others online and forget the game even has a single player mode. Each to our own
