Absolutely amazing jazz tune from McCoy Tyner # if you enjoy it get it in FLAC format, no need to punish yourselfs with lossy Mp3 and Quite catchy thisone...

No need to get all heat up over game we share interest in fellas, would be shame to get this locked. What I'd be personally interested in hearing is, what's the problem with BI cooperating with some of the already released AI mods that the general consensus is they have proven into delivering much better experience over and over again than what vanilla arma has to offer? Is BI concerned about further performance drawbacks or is it matter of pride where BI will simply not use an external code? I would think that if there's a solution ( hell, even if I call it a workaround that still does the job better ) why not just better the game and put it in? :confused:

Yes that reminds me to look forward to the changes but at the same time not to expect anything groundbreaking, at least not any time soon. I am sure small changes are applied and experimented with all the time but I fear that the issues with AI might be much more fundamental

Good luck with the project

Correct me if I'm wrong but I think the signals sent by BI were and still are obvious - AI won't undergo any significant changes due to lack of documentation from previous developers as well not enough man power . As I understand it, BI would have to dig too deep but that would probably be to complex without breaking other stuff and is not going to happen. So far hasn't. So I guess is brand spanking new AI the way then? Unlikely Sent from tablet thingy

Would be nice to have but I doubt this would not bring along yet more performance issues. Are the midrange textures solved yet? Oh well

Neither I know any other game that does it better BUT this scale excuse is also ruining the major proportion of the game. What good are the massive maps when everything else suffers subpar performance and or other issues? Other games may not be the scale of arma but at least the AI behave in more convincing way. That said I don't really care for AI all that much, all I know is they are holding back the game in a sense

What is VBS2/3 multithread performance like? I've always wondered

I just came across that eye in relation to realtime immersive and crytek. Desperate, wishful thinking or could it be?Thoughts on that? My personal opinion - I don't think arma is as niche as people make out to be it's just arma has so many long standing issues that only a handful of those could put people off of the game. I really believe arma on better engine would sell like hot cakes there ever was.

It's not FPS issue as the game feels somewhat smooth and I get some 60-70 FPS but I've noticed constant micro tearing somewhere in the background making the game somewhat sluggish

Note to myself - **must stay out of negative threads** Can't do... *I am baffled at how is it even possible that vehicle crosshair is so way off of where I am actually shooting after so many months *FPS issues - actually bit false, as it's not FPS, it's some sort of constant tearing somewhere in the background even in SP *tracked vehicles constantly mute engine whenever A or D ( left or right keys ) are pressed *I don't find very practical to circle from armor piercing to MG and over to HE. In arma 2 we could have HE ready while shooting the turrets MG at once

Looking good Slatts. Were you looking to add some coast guard gear or something as well?

Which are not going to happen either. Heck, most people are not even aware or...wait for it...don't even mind.

I agree the muddied vehicles with some gear on them like towing cables, extra cartridges, bags and whatnot would greatly improve the settings.

I bet it's an DLC ( with more turrets ) I am really trying to stay positive here. A gaming studio such as BI can probably never satisfy everyone. Todays site-rep is quite positive in a sense that vehicles are receiving some of the lost love again but on one hand, I am at loss seeing the benefits of being able to use wheel with vehicles. I mean it's great but the vehicles have IMO quite few fundamental issues. They still feel too arcadey, tracked vehicles are turning like cars with damaged wheels and the physx are not just refined enough just yet either and for any race sim enthusiast - wheeling ability will make it even worse unfortunately, not better. May I suggest looking up project reality 1.1 for BF2 and how tracked vehicles handle? Yes its an old engine and all and it's not spot on either but the feeling of driving tracked vehicle is immersive enough and unfortunately more so in BF2 PR than they are currently in arma. I am truly looking forward for more updates

Unless this storm thing are heavy engine tweaks with some most requested community features I don't give a toss. This storm probably refers to the new aircraft coming or whatever no? also, 666 posts lol

I don't believe you will see the improvement you are hoping for or maybe even expecting, sorry to say. SSD nor another 4Gb of ram will not bring enough noticeable performance for the money spend. Your best route at this point would be sourcing used, high clock ( say 3.1Ghz ) intel core i3 processor and compatible M. board. I wouldn't worry about S/H CPU s it will either work or it simply doesn't. Just to throw in another option: You could easily get away with socket 1155 and 3570K as the gain per clock compared to haswell is simply minimal, IRL applications. This option would however make sense only if you can find motherboard and cpu of said socket for ~100 quid less. My reasoning behind is you would not receive 100 quid more performance by going with socket 1150 ( 47XX ) Furthermore DDR 4 is due to be out sometimes next year which I imagine many will want to upgrade to sooner rather than later ( not such a thing as future proofing ) However if the latest is more desired the above specs look great. The i7 bring literally no benefits to a purely gaming machine whatsoever but I presume the i7 was chosen for work / addon related tasks? Either way - unless you plan to SLI, 550W power supply is more than enough for the above spec rig and would leave enough headroom for overclocking too. I personally would go for the Pro version of the sammy SSD and Caviar blue , instead of the green line. I am sure the antec case is much improved case since their previous model, the 300 but having owned the 300 I would never buy another antec case again but I appreciate it may work out for you.

Damage has been tweaked so it's bit better now and the selection has been expanded by quite a few as well. But with that said, if you enjoy cruising in vehicles on altis, they will leave you highly desired. Physx needs much more refinement, sounds are still mindblowingly (yes that much) bad for the most part ( avoid firing MBT main guns at medium volumes if you've got a subwoofer or you may as well blow it ) and on top of that tracked vehicles steer like wheeled cars. The vehicle part is still of the game is just not there yet

http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/153415-another-quick-update-5-december-2013/?p=1537168 Woot! I'd bet that there's good chance we'll see this sometime down the road for arma 3

Usually tricky to pin down the problem of thisone. It could be caused by faulty RAM, dying PSU, bad sectors on HDD, lose cabling or even a screw behind a motherboard causing shortcut. First of all, make sure your CPU cooler is holding firmly in place and while at it, consider replacing the thermal paste. Then double check that all cables are fully inserted, same goes for graphic card itself. ( if OC'ed, restore stock settings ) You can test your RAM with windows diagnostic tools or better yet, something like Memtest86+. I'd perform these checks first and see and let us know if it helped to reveal the issue.

I would like to kindly ask moderators if they could sticky this, should the thread get busy. Nearly every forum has similar thread so I thought it would be nice to have one here Please remember to keep the 100kb picture limit Thought it's time to improve the sound a little ;) and some Qed speaker cables and cambridge audio HDMI

Holy crap the model of that vehicle is beautiful. Outstanding attention to detail. ( the dried up mud splashes make it very authentic ) Also well done on the view ports I hope one day... Also - anyone noticed that the tracked vehicles drive like cars rather than tracked vehicle? Very noticeable in this video and I find it true when driving myself. Not to mention the firing sounds are nicely done and immersive

Unfortunately this song sounds very flat from youtube and would be better appreciated with decent stereo Alternative source - http://www.deezer.com/album/6225000

It's definitely improvement from the stock sound. IMO it should sound little more tube-ey as the what I am hearing is .50 cartridge base sound. Would be interesting to hear it twice as fast, as you said :)
