ARMA 2: OA beta build 89223 (1.60 MP compatible build, post 1.60 release)
wchafe replied to Dwarden's topic in ARMA 2 & OA - BETA PATCH TESTING
I'm really not liking the new steering in vehicles. The "^" is an annoying distraction, but the automatic re-centering is really making it hard to steer. I understand this is meant to simulate the steering centering when you let the steering wheel slip after making a turn, but in the real world you choose when to do that. If you want to leave the re-centering in then there should be some way of choosing when the re-centering happens, like maybe a mouse click as an option to re-center. Otherwise please make an option to remove the re-centering effect entirely, including the mild re-centering effect that was always in the sim. -

I posted earlier that I was one of the ones that got a huge performance increase with these two patches. I forgot to mention that I still have to turn Hyperthreading off. Otherwise I get constant stuttering. With hyperthreading turned off in the BIOS everything is very smooth even with visibility set to 10k. I haven't compared frame rate pre/post patches. It was always good, except that I had to keep range down to 5k. Now turning it up to 10k has no noticeable impact on frame rate. Before the patches doing this would make the game unplayable.

Much better performance with long range visibility. 10k is smooth for me now with last two patches. Previously I had taken a big performance hit when I moved from XP to Win7. Now performance is equal to or better than XP, and far better in terms of visibility range. Intel i7 920 @2.67, 6GB RAM, Radeon HD 4870/1GB, Win7
