  1. zach with your response you have only proved my point... you have not read these forums.

    qwertz and his investigation of Arma 2 HD usage is probably the MOST concise data anaysis of any of the components that affect performance of this game.

    I assure you I am no simpleton and I wish you all the best... this is an amazing game and you will enjoy it immensly when you follow the advice on these forums.

    I stand by my original post.

    BTW like Rex I am using the latest beta... anyone that is not is missing out on big performance improvements.

    Your missing the bigger picture. I'm using the Beta and i still get shit performance, there is no gain over the 1.04patch. I get ridiculous stuttering and nothing does anything to relieve it. There is nothing posted on these forums here that has helped and i have tried everything that could be slightly related to the problem.

    The bottom line is this game has serious issues, and the advice on these forums does not solve the problem(s) for everybody. The HDD thing is also a bit iffy. There is no reason everyone should have to fork out like $500 for an SSD or raptor to run this game properly.

    I have tried the whole ram disk option and so have other people, and none of us have gotten any improvement with that whatsoever,so its debateable if the HDD is the issue anyway despite one persons testing.


  2. Hey all,

    I started playing the series with flashpoint on my pIII 733mhz with some nvidia TNT card.. the series hit armaII and my pc also improved, but i'm struggling with performance a bit.

    In editor everything goes fine, but the campaign just goes wrong on fps, i get 15-25 fps.. no matter what settings. i had a 8800gtx and upgraded it to a 4890 1GB, but it didn't help.

    my current specs

    Intel c2Duo e6850 @ 3.6 ghz (dual core)

    ATI HD 4890 1GB

    4GB ram DDR2 800mhz

    2 x Spinpoint f1 Raid0

    windows 7 64bit

    1920x1200 LCD

    so editor goes well, but other stuff like campaign and heavy mp missions are running way to slow to enjoy it. I'm not someone who want's to run everything on very high, but hence, it's not the problem because i can nearly run it on very high, but in missions there is no difference in fps (or nearly no) with everhting on high or everything on low.

    So will i benifit from upgrading to a core i7 860 (4x2.8ghz) compared to my 2x3.6 ghz atm. if it realy would help me off the hook i may consider it, but i didnt plan to ugprade my pc this soon, so i don't want to spend money if it won't help me out, my gfx uggrade didnt help much.

    I actually have this exact same problem, word for word.

    I just upgraded from an 8800gts 512mb to an ati4890 factory overclocked, and i get absolutely pathetic performance in all missions regardless of settings, yet the game runs great in the editor. All very high settings or all low settings makes practically no difference to performance. My 8800gts was performing as well as this new card...

    My system is :

    Intel Q6600 @3.2ghz

    Ati 4890 factory overclocked

    6gb ddr2 800mhz ram

    win7 64bit

    1920x1200 lcd.


  3. I finaly managed to complete this Badlands mission, fucking hard i tell you, dont think ive had that much trouble for a long time.

    Dogs of war is just as fucked up though.

    Anyone know if this actually fixes in later missions? As of badlands i cannot control my squad, its the same in dogs of war. If it doesnt fix by the next mission ill just go play multi till BIS get their act together.

    I honestly do wonder if they bothered to spend even 5 min play testing this game.


  4. ok thanks. but the problem is still they wont reply to my emails so if i need a new code/serial nubmer what am i supposed to do if they wont reply?

    I know ther is a general securom revoke tool but it wont work with this nexway version.


  5. This is not what I was trying to say. However it is obvious to recognize why the AI is reacting better then real people when the real people are running around like ducks looking for bushes as cover and already shooting without any targets in their sights or waiting for anyone to get into their position before shooting. :rolleyes:

    yeah no shit i wasnt refering to your post at all in mine.....


  6. Well i bought my copy from nexway in digital form. Its all fine and runs ok. The problem is that they neglected to specify before purchase that i only get to install it limited times before im not allowed to play again.

    I have emailed them countless times since i bought it but nexway have ignored all my emails and wont tell me how many times i can install it before i am prevented from installing again, how i would go about getting this fixed once it occurs, and where i can get a copy of the manual for this game.

    So what am i supposed to do? im bassically going to end up with a completely useless game because nexway wont respond. Can someone from BIS please try and contact them to get some answers for me and everyone else trying to get answers from them?

    I honestly fail to see how this mechanism prevents piracy of the game in any way, shape, or form. If anything its encouraging it on a huge scale. Why should i, a paying consumer, stand to be prevented from playing a game i legitly purchased, while pirates can easily bypass this pathetic joke for an antipiracy measure?
