  1. You guys should add little box jellyfish that are so small you normally can't even see them. And if one touches you, your get to die slowly and painfully.

    Realism ftw!

    I joke btw... :)

    But in all honesty I am really amazed at the underwater life so far, well done BIS devs!

    I would love to see jellyfish though!

    'You can find seven different underwater animals in the alpha right now.' Kind of sounds like there are more just not in the alpha (I hope so)

    PS. I'm a fan of your videos richie, keep them up!

    Skip to 2:40 for the Map if you don't want to get a spoiler.

    Thanks Evenor :D


  2. So I've just set up all my sensors and loaded into the editor to get some results

    AMD FX 6100

    MSI N560-GTXti Hawk

    8gb ram

    The game recommends a mix of very high/high but I did this test on high settings. Here's the results

    GPU usage: %56

    Core 1: 72%

    Core 2: 42%

    Core 3: 69%

    Core 4: 58%

    FPS: 15-35 (goes down badly when I move around, introduce AI)

    Is this low optimization or just my settings?

    I did view distance around 1.5k


  3. I'm also having the same problems... Surprisingly

    AMD FX 6100 at stock (stock cooler, can't OC)

    MSI N560GTX-Ti Hawk (supposed to be 'super overclocked' lol)

    8gb ripjaws

    I've got a question, if I have 6 cores can I dedicate all 6 to arma in the steam launch options, or only 4 allowing the other 2 for other things?

    EDIT: also how do I check my CPU core usage using Afterburner? I can only see the GPU usage settings...


  4. Oh okay, in that case probably so, though I can't see them jumping from one huge batch of content and expecting the smoothest transition, most likely what will happen is content delivered via patches, almost like A2 patches but..larger.

    Yeah that's what I'm hoping for ;) I've just noticed the Alpha SITREP thread that's stickied, it mentions in there that they will post about 'content additions' and other things, so I guess that's pretty much the answer I wanted!


  5. It's day one, and I think you misunderstand the purpose to the alpha testing phase, it's not about content itself but rather playing with what there is at the time to try and eliminate as many glitches as possible.

    Tell me something I don't know.. 'What there is at the time to try' so what about the other features and assets that they do eventually finish and need testing, do they add them into the alpha or wait until the beta/full game?

    That was the question.

    @MissionCreep Yeah I've seen some if the stuff that's been created which is great, but I'm more interested in the official stuff tbh

    EDIT: @ProfTournesol ahh thanks man


  6. My specs:

    AMD FX-6100

    GTX 560ti

    8gb 1600mhz ram

    These specs exceed the recommended, and yet I can't run any of the showcases at any higher than 35 fps on medium graphics. 20 fps in the helicopter showcase.

    GPU and CPU usage pretty much never go over 50% while in game. I've spent the entire day trying all the tricks that worked for optimizing Arma 2, and other games, but there pretty much nothing I can do.

    I have the exact same specs as you there man... I'm managing to play on high but with a few FPS drops every now and then (when I turn around, and in helos)

    Have you guys with 6 cores changed the CPU count in steam and had any better results?


  7. When I first got into the game I went straight for the editor so I could sort out my vid settings and get a good stable FPS. I noticed that in the vid settings there is an auto detect system where presumably the engine detects your settings and selects the settings that should support your rig.

    Well, I did this and it recommended very high. But I get reallllly bad FPS, so I've had to lower that to high. And I still don't get a stable 30 FPS everywhere...

    Now I know its alpha before you say. But has anyone else had this issue, or is it just me?


  8. L-39 can land anywhere. :p L-59 is going to kick ass once again! Hope it has counter measure systems & missile launch warning this time.

    It was the only one out of the few that I used that could fit down the road :p But yeah I love flying that thing.
