Another thing that I'v noticed: Heavy fps drop (about 15) when camera set to cockpit view in helis :-( Need to be fixed

I'v just upgraded my PC especialy for Arma 3 and this what I'v got: Specs: 2X GTX 680 OC SLI 3770k overclocked to 4.9 (but working only at 4.6 0_0) 12 Gb 1660 DDR3 RAM all parameters are set to ultra, draw distance is 2200. So at infantrty showcase, at the same begining, I have about 60 fps, but when I look into terrain it can drops to ~46 fps at 1st stage of the vehicle showcase results are pretty the same- looking into open terrain=~45, looking somewhere else=60+ BUT on the 2nd stage, where u must to destroy enemy vehicles, ur riding on the big valley, fps drops to 30, even 25! 30 fps on that machine :-(( Helicopter showcase has about 30 average fps. I really hope that it is optimisation issues and all of them will be fixed

Vehicle headlights in Infantry control section? :)

First that I must to say: Great work BIS, game is really great :) and heres the subj: There's a button assigment called "headlights" (L by default) in the controls, but I cant turn helmetlights on-is it an alpha issue or what? Now its only enable/disable AN/PEQ IR laser -( I think it will be cool to make every part of the equipment interactive.

done. gtx 680, 12 gb ram and i7 3770@4.8Ghz. 46 avg fps and 20 (!!) during helicopter showcase flight ..

Hello guys. So here's my impressions: game is really awesome. I'm very excited. Combat stances, physics, improved animations-all are great. So Arma has finally became something like Hardcore and realistical version of the battlefield. I wanted to buy SE but shop didnt worked so I'v purchuased DDE and looking for an upgrade :3. And now some benchmarks ( Core i7 3770k@4600 12 gb 1660 ram and GTX 680@1280@6908 mhz). So: 1a) Standard Ultra settings, testing in the editor preview (somewhere on the island) : 42(in the forest)-58(at the base) 1b) Ultra setting with maxed draw distance (12 km) : 29-45 2a)Default ultra settings, infantry showcase: 37-48 fps (43 avg) 2b)Ultra with 12 km DD: 30-35 fps (32 avg) 3a) Vehicle showcase 2nd checkpoint (where u'v successfully hijacked enemy's car and roaming to destroy enemy's vehicles with mounted GL) -I especially picked that checkpoit due to huge draw area including buildings, trees, etc : avg 30 fps 3b) Maxed DD and ultra settings 19-27 fps (20 avg (OMG!) 4a) Helicopter showcase (in flight ): Brace urselves.... def. Ultra-18-27 (avg 23) 4b)Ultra with maxed Draw distance ...... 15 avg. fps. -on MINIMAL settings I have 30 fps as well According to GPU Tweak game were using 2000 (!!!) Mb of video mem. Main framerate cutters are: Overall draw distance, Objects distance, Objects quality and terrain quaility. So I think that this game is heavelly depends on ur videocard, not CPU. I'm planning to buy 2nd GTX 680, but now I dont know, will it run at least at 50 fps on def. ultra settings in such heavy situations like heli flight.. So this is it =)) thanks for reading
