Yeah just wait until you get to the last enemy villages, where the enemy as the HQ's and all that, then you will be pretty much alone destroying several armored vehicles, lots of infantry etc...

If you have never played a military sim then it's hard to say if you should buy it or not, also if your internet connection is that bad you will probably have a few problems playing online, or do you mean that your internet is bad in the sense that you have low traffic limits? The online is what it is, some servers you get some bunch of retards others you get some very cool people, it's pretty much like all games, although in this one I don't see retards staying for long, after all it's not only a hard game but it's also one that is kind of community driven. Anyway getting to the question, it depends if you like realism or not, if you don't like realism then forget about it, if you like fast games forget about it, if you like games that are kind of forgiving forget about it, this game is very tactical, you need to be very careful if you rambo your dead, you need to play in a team, you need to be patient etc... if you like a more slow/tactical paced game with lots of teamwork involved and large scale conflicts then this might be a good game for you to buy. BTW don't buy it if you only intend to end up playing single player, although the single player isn't horrible it isn't that great in my opinion, doing coop missions is a blast.

That's weird my voice recognition works fine without messing with the confidence threshold, but I have read both training texts and did the tutorial, and messed around with it in the windows so maybe is just my voice recognition that as more training hours, anyway the more you use it the better it gets so in some time from now maybe you won't need to mess with the confidence threshold, although it doesn't really make that much of a difference since at least as far as I have tested when I mess with the confidence threshold the program still recognizes the right words. When was the last time you tested windows 7? The only problem I had so far with windows 7 RC1 was with my sound card drivers, but all I had to do was to install them in compatibility mode and it works just fine, well the tuneup 2009 software doesn't work either but that is to be expected. So far I have found windows 7 RC1 to be really really polished, better than XP but since XP doesn't have a really reliable 64 bits mode it's a little harder to compare. BTW in what concerns games when you say it runs better, where you testing games with Directx 10 or games with Directx 9? I'm asking because so far in games that use directx 9 from what I have heard the windows 7 is running just as good as Windows XP.

Like I said a couple of times the voice recognition is working just fine, the words are being detected, what it's not working is the keys that are not being pressed when the word is detected, also I already tried that threshold thing and it didn't fix it. BTW if you need to turn of the confidence threshold you probably haven't trained the recognition system enough.

Apparently it is a 64bits problem, need to try VAC to see if it works.

Not understanding what you mean with the recording options, anyway the program is picking up the words just fine, it is detecting what I'm saying and when I say something that it is in the command list, that word appears in the windows speech recognition window, so it's definitely detecting the words I'm saying and getting them from the list, but it isn't pressing the keys though. I had already tried running as an administrator but thanks for the suggestion, I have also tried to run in compatibility mode but it doesn't work, maybe it's not from being windows 7 but from being 64 bits. Do you have 64 bits or 32 bits version?

Ok just tested with with the notepad and it isn't working, it seems like the program is only working when I have the program selected, not when I have another program selected. EDITED: Ok even when I'm in notepad I see the command that I'm saying appear in the voice command box (that thing that stays on top of your screen), which means it definitely is detecting words from the program, yet it isn't pressing any keys.

Thanks for the suggestion, didn't remember that, I know that it detects the words, but it seems it's not pressing the keys, anyway I will try it as soon as I get home.

I have the english version of windows 7 RC1, I have also tested outside of the game, in windows and I can work in windows just using the voice, so it works just fine, also when I have the PilfIus selected in the command list when I say something like red the red command is selected. I'm using a headset, and it's definitely not background noise, because not only can I use it just fine outside the game, but even inside the game when I say "stop listening" and come back to the windows the windows speech recognition is offline, or when I say a word and come back to windows fast it says in the speech recognition the word I just said, but for some weird reason the commands in PilfIus don't work.

Ok, I downloaded the profile, I downloaded the program, I installed the program, I trained the speech recognition, I loaded the profile to the program, activated to always active, then opened arma 2 got into the game and it doesn't work, I know that the voice recognition is recognizing words even when I'm in the game, but it doesn't do any actions. Does anyone have any idea of why it isn't working?

Basically do what richard said and if you can/want go for windows 7 it will give you a significant increase in FPS.

The Devs from BIS have probably played WoW and they where traumatized by the males playing females in the game, and with the fear that their costumers would ever experience such horrors they decided to let them off. [sEXIST]Besides they play the role womans have been playing in wars for a long time, wifes and whores, and lets be honest that's all they are good for (cooking and having sex)[/sEXIST] P.S. To the OP I liked to see your creative take on the subject, satire is always nice to see XD. Dear diary today I finally did it with him, I got in his car and we drove to the lake where we had our first kiss, as we lay there in the ground ever so closely, I started to feel deep inside me that this was the time, as his soft and strong hands caressed my body I started to let my self go, I kissed him in the ear and told him that I was ready, this was the time I had been waiting for, he started to take my cloths softly while he kissed me lower and lower, finally as we lay down on top of each other trading our love in the most intimate of ways, I felt something I had never experienced before, and I knew this wasn't just sex it was love. Truly yours John XoXo Indeed if you where to write something like this, you would most defenitly be a true heterosexual XD.

Hookers are one of the things that made GTA great, unfortunately for some reason this game doesn't allow you go get one in your tank lol. Empire total war maybe (kind of huge maybe) best RTS of the year, but not best game of the year nominee, killzone 2 really good shooter but it's pretty much just another great shooter, not much else there, resident evil 5 maybe best survival horror game but only because pretty much there isn't competition, the game can never ever ever be game of the year, it has archaic gameplay, the AI is dumb as hell, and the game itself isn't much more than resident evil 4, which isn't a bad thing is just that dead space evolved the genre a lot since resident evil 4. Anno 1404 probably good game but game of the year nominee it is not, call of juarez 1 as good, second would need to be pretty great upgrade from the first one to be game of the year material, DIRT 2 no way in hell especially with forza 3 coming out this year. Uncharted 2 definitely game of the year material, this will be the gears of war of 2009, dragon age surelly a great RPG if it achieves what it set out to achieve (a spiritual successor do baldurs), but it suffers the same problems of ARMA 2 it's probably going to be a "too much" hardcore game, starcraft 2 if it comes out this year (seems likely) it will probably be a nominee, although for me this year RTS was dawn of war 2 it has many problems but it's something pretty new in the RTS genre, also with some luck the new patch 1.4 will solve most of the issues. Mafia 2 isn't coming out this year, call of duty 6 will be nominee but doubt it will win, since it smells to me it will be more of the same but lets wait and see, assassin's creed 2 most definitely assuming they get rid of the problems that plagued the first one, god of war 3 not coming out this year, grand turismo 5 will probably not make it this year. BTW you forgot some games that where pretty good (not saying game of the year nominee) like grand theft auto chinatown, grand theft auto the lost and damned, grand theft auto the ballad of gay tony, league of legends (the game from the DOTA guys), dawn of war 2, infamous, bioshock 2 (the first one was art), Batman: Arkham Asylum (hopefully it will be good), the new flashpoint, brutal legend, left 4 dead 2, splinter cell conviction, and many others. Basically this year we have loads and loads of great games, but only a few can make the game of the year list, and only one can win.

Not blind, just not that much objective about it, like I said in my first post if the awards only took in consideration hardcore PC gamers, then yes it could be nominated, but we don't live in such a world at least not for a long time now.
