  1. Whoa! People are hostile here! :) :D ArmA2 has been big disappointment for me. Never going to spend money on bis game ever again. That is all. Haven't played ArmA2 on my comp in months, using my friends, and this game seriously has nothing in it. It is kinda like original Operation Flashpoint with flashy graphics, all other things, well OFP did it better. If you would downgrade the looks of this game OFP is better in every aspect. This game has probably the worst AI ever in "war simulator". Thousands of useless in game crashes, and if the game doesn't crash, it is your AI teammate flying helicopter. Multiplayer is kinda weak also, 'thou it is the best part of this game. I don't even go in the campaign here. When this game focuses only on firefights, it doesn't do those wery well. This games coding is just so terrible, it takes ultramodern computer to run this game, somewhat good. The non-existent AI and physics suck every processor dry. I don't usually compare older games with newer (just because new games usually sucks, just like comparing ArmA2 and original OFP), but man, try Bad Company 2 beta, and you'll see how bad this game is. Thta game has good AI, good physics, sounds everything. Now before anyone says, that BC2 isn't "war simulator", well, don't. It is way more realistic (being average FPS-shooter) than this one. The firefights do the realism in videogames, not anything else. If ArmA2 would have other army aspects than firefights in it (like building/guarding your camp, digging trenches, planning and setting up camp defenses, camouflaging vehicles, maintenancing your equipment, melting pure snow for your flask, setting up the tripwires, carrying heavy mines, cleaning your weapon, transporting rations and ammunition, encountering civilians, and securing them so that they cant hurt you or themselves, learning some real army values, setting up communications, building bridges and searching crossing points in swampy areas and so on), it would be more realistic, but games are for shooting, and this game doesn't do it realistic OR in fun way. This isn't personal attack against anyone, I'm not just saying how bad this game is (the game would have been good, but terrible programming ruined it), I'm disappointed too. I spend lots of money in this one, and tried to get it work the way I enjoy playing games. I even modded it to extreme ('cause every modder in the world can make this game better than bis itself, it seems, just in few days). Peace! See you in the next game! :bounce3:
  2. Never buying BIS game again, but if someone else gets the job, I can reconsider.

    Thinking of getting the game....but

    Again... then this game isn't for you. The campaign doesn't work. Maybe try later, or just get Dragon Rising or other similar game.

    Why is this game not more popular?

    It ran like crap for me, didn't figure that the game would run like that. Sadly it did. And still does. :p
  6. nVidia control panel doesn't affect to frames at all. Somebody prove me wrong (video with fraps running/benchmarks/in-gameFPScounter). Me or anyone of my friends haven't see ANY change. :D:D:D Funny how people think that it will affect. Psychological affect maybe?

    1.06 beta patches.. when?

    is this the end? 1.05? probably. sad, but that is how it goes.

    Why is this game not more popular?

    I think it because this game doesn't work online. :j: 99% of players who had even "recommended" system for this game, can't play it online. :rolleyes: For me it is because after 1.05 my copy isn't "legal" anymore. The game says that it is illegal. That stopped me finally playing this game until 1.06 comes and hopefully fixes it back.

    Arma2 - GTX295 Disaster

    play the game on empty map, it works then. :)
  10. I hope that they make ArmA3, but with downgraded graphichs.. maybe original OPF engine? Just make everything that this game has and more, just so that it would work.

    What Mouse For ArmA2?

    I'm using Logitech G9, but thinking to change G9x... This is too slow for my taste. :)

    What do you guys do?..

    Tweaking and trying to play the campaign and scenarios. In the case of scenarios, sometimes I find solution to play those with quite good settings. In the case of campaign, after I get some hints from pros, I start it excited, until I see the frames. Nothing has happened, so I go back to scenarios. :)
  14. go back to 1.04, performance isn't that improved. :(
