  1. You should apply for GOL -Guerrillas of Liberation clan/squad. While I was with them I learned a shed load of tactics including ROE, formations and assault & retreat tactics, they will show you the ropes really well.


  2. Don't judge the game on the campaign or single missions, the main element of the game is the community side of things. Get yourself in a squad/clan and have a game online, that's where the real fun is at. I don't know many people who enjoyed the campaign.


  3. Am I the only one who doesn't know what 'OnLive' is?

    Never mind, just Googled it. Seems like a pretty good idea but I think the people who own OnLive would hate to have ArmA II on there, the amount they would have to spend on the equipment haha.


  4. It's because when you're zoomed in it's not directly related to where the cross hair is, think about it. The crosshair is in the direct center of the screen, but the player holds the gun slightly to his right hand side, and the iron sights which the crosshair is based off are slightly higher than the barrel, just use actual iron sights or get ACE2 and use CQB sights. :)


  5. Weapons and Vehicles

    * 130 weapon variants (including various weapons from ARMA 2 and their variants with thermal and night vision scopes)

    * 15 brand new weapons introduced to OA

    * 100+ vehicle variants in total (including improved and remodeled vehicles from BI's previous titles in various new texture variants)

    * 35 brand new vehicle

    * 64 character models

    * Animals

    There is animals, no mention of what animals though.


  6. Hey guys, some of you may have recently seen my thread entitled "My FPS troubles". Well I looked everywhere looking for performance tweaks for ArmA II but there was one thing I overlooked and that was updating my graphics card drivers. I downloaded the newest ones and I have a really nice performance boost of 7-8 fps, not to mention the scenery looking clearer. The newest ones for my card (9800GT) are 197.45. I seriously recommend downloading these if you haven't yet as it's a great boost and I see a lot of people complaining about FPS issues. These may have been posted already but this is also a kinda review so, yeah. :)


  7. I want to spend as much money as I can on Operation Arrowhead, but I can't buy online so I will have to get it from Gamestation. I didn't buy ArmA II as soon as it came out because I needed to upgrade it a lot, but when I did buy it the store clerk guy told me I was probably the only person in my town who has bought the game, I don't think anybody knows what the hell it is in my town, apart from my friend who I always tell him about clan matches I've had.


  8. I'm not exactly computer handy but I'm really annoyed about one thing. When I came to buying the parts for the computer I didn't know what was good and what was a load of junk. So my friend who claims to be a computer know-it all writes a list of all the best parts I could get within my budget. I get all the ones he writes down and I had 75 pounds left afterwards so I assumed I had hit a really good deal. That 75 pound could of went towards a better processor, I hate that guy sometimes. Thanks anyway guys, I'll try some performance tweaks which some people have been doing.


  9. OK, I want to find out whether I should be getting more FPS than what I am, I get around 20 FPS with all settings on medium and view distance at about 1500. Here are my system specs.

    Windows Vista Ultimate SP1 (64bit)

    Pentium DuelCore CPU E5200 @2.5ghz

    2GB RAM

    Nvidia GeForce 9800gt

    150GB HDD

    Any thoughts on whether I should be getting a higher FPS?

    According to my computer I have two of the same 2.5ghz cpu. Does it mean that each core is 2.5ghz?


  10. OK, before anybody directs me to an addon pack with ready made faces, that's not what I want. I've been looking for a tutorial on how to create your own custom faces and found nothing, I've found templates and stuff but no step by step guide. If anybody knows how to do it or knows of a tutorial could you please give me the link or a guide, thanks.
