you say folders. I see two arma 2 folders in my documents 'Arma 2' and 'Arma 2 other profiles'. Which one did you delete?

Since patching via steam to 1.07, there are about a page and a half of local servers that I can't join. One in particular is =7cav= server which says its using 1.07. But when I try to join it tells me I have a Bad version, rejected by server. Anyone run into this?

I fail to see how the 'bugs' are the fault of the consumer. Number 3 needs to be scrubbed from your list.

Do your research before you buy. Read reviews, check the forums as suggested. The game has issues for many, and seemingly none for others. I for one am a little disappointed with the game. I enjoyed it initially, but once 1.03 hit, my fps was hurt considerably and made playing in coop missions impossible when full grass was forced on, as well as certain trees, bringing my fps down to 10 to 15. Also, living on the east coast, I am just not seeing a decent population of players on servers pinging under 100. Maybe two or 3 servers will have over 10 players. The rest are maybe 2 players here or there, often times afk. I think the bugs and system requirements have taken a big hit on the player population.

PROPER projects - game tweaks of all sorts

I think this thread deserves a sticky -
Make sure you have the Trackir 5.0b update. Some folks have been having issues with the 5.0 final, due to them accidently leaving out some code.

ArmA II: Operation Arrowhead discussion thread

or did I just read that BiS is currently working on an expansion for Arma 2.....while the core game itself needs a whole lot of attention still? -
Glad i'm not the only one seeing issue with certain leafy trees. Doing missions with fixed heavy grass/foliage is pretty much unplayable, especially when zooming in.

You can only exercise so much patients when you spend money on a product like this. Not only was it released with bugs, they only managed to introduce new ones with each patch. Also there is the damage caused just by word of mouth, regarding the condition of the game in its current state. I get the same feeling I did when I started playing WWII Online. Similar release, loaded with bugs, that took so long to address that the damage to consumer confidence in their product killed their player population, and any interest from potential buyers. The fact that they are asking him to test stuff he's already done, and supplied video evidence of tells me they might be a bit disorganized. Which means these issues will take a whole LOT of patients on our parts, while we look at servers with deplorable player counts.

I'm really baffled by the way people are playing the online multiplayer game.

Pub servers are always a crapshoot. It has been that way for years. If you want tactical gameplay, join a team/squad/clan. Thats exactly what I did. Joined the 75th, and glad I did. Squad nights are all about tactics, organizing into fireteams and abiding by the chain of command. So what you are looking for, in part, many of us are enjoying already cause we knew where to find it. As for handling 500 ai...you are in a small minority of people that can play on that scale with this game. You know its demands on the average system. I like the idea of it though. Who wouldn't. -
VF FPS Saver (VFFPSS)
Oh_Heck replied to VictorFarbau's topic in ARMA 2 & OA - ADDONS & MODS: COMPLETE
Curious, once you turn this on while ingame, can you deactivate it ingame as well? Also, since its changing settings, are those reset when you log off and back onto a server? -
Reality is, the game doesn't play well on average or lower end systems. You have gamers coming in after playing fps games maxed detail wise, and having to sacrifice alot in the graphics department to try and get some playable fps. You stack on top of that the host of bugs in the game at release...and bugs added with 1.03. That can be a huge turnoff right off the bat. What follows that, is word of mouth, which can do alot of damage to potential buyers. Alot of gamers are already involved in clans, and that word spreads to fellow clanners, etc etc. BiS needs to get their stuff in order. They need to thoroughly test their patches before releasing them. And I would love to see more on this forum from them on their progress. I'm not seeing alot from them, to reassure their customers.
