    Here's an illustration:

    At the end of the block, just above and slightly to the left of the reticule is a car less than 80m away, standing just to the left of the car is a soldier, you can't tell it's a soldier, or a bush, or just alias artifact crawl in-game until he shoots and you see the muzzle flash (and are likely injured or dead if you play with remotely challenging AI)...

    Your math is obtuse, and not full-context unless it includes: resolution, how LOD is calculated and drawn, and FOV... In fact at the mean game resolution of 1280*1024 (Valve's Statistics), you can't typically id a target to with in half the distance you can in the real world, with FSAA off at typical FOV... The significance of the improvement FSAA offers depends on your criterion of 'significant', any move toward more realistic range of engagement and IFF id is worth while IMHO, and obviously the preference of the majority...

    That depends on what you mean by 'a whole lot better'; in versus multi-player if you're on the receiving end and have a lower resolution it can mean the difference between beign able to see who's about to kill you and not being able to.

    Aesthetically it's pretty obvious some in the poll (the minority) have very different standards of what's acceptable, I for example find alias artifacts a ridiculous (and I use that word literally) anomaly considering the render path, and hardware acceleration (that many of us paid a premium price for) available to remove it.

    Probably more helpful and germane would have been a poll category of 'Will not buy the game unless it offers FSAA', as many that saw GRAW PC did not buy the game on that account, and even more that bought GRAW did not buy GRAW 2 for the same reason... All perfectly silly in the case of ArmA II with its DirectX 9 engine that should be easily able to support every AA mode...

    :(

    Hi, registered only to say x2 to all of this, can't stand alias in games, real life do not have it, please let the game be as realistic as posible (specially if it's technically possible like this)
