like with crashes, performance also depends a lot on the server and the mission its running atm... I have very poor performance (20+ fps), and a lot of crashes on Wasteland servers, and really great performance (40+ fps) and very little crashes on good blitzkrieg servers...

Because you guys were so fast releasing Wasteland for Arma 3, I started playing that for the first few days of the Alpha, but I had A LOT of crashes (roughly every 10-60 minutes). At first I thought, a well, Alpha... BUT yesterday I played Blitzkrieg all day (almost 7 Hours), and I haven't had a single crash. Went back to Wasteland for 30 Minutes, crash... Not saying its all Wasteland related, but from where I'm standing, it sure looks like Wasteland is responsible for a fair amount of my crashes.

I read through the entire thread and you keep saying you don't need the feature, because you know where you're shooting and it distracts you... Well if that were the case, you wouldn't be annoyed by this feature, because it would never take effect. To me it seems you still haven't fully understood this feature and why its there. I do realize everybody plays differently, I do to, but I just can't see why this would be a bad feature to anybody. What would be the point in turning it off? You're sitting behind a rock or a tree and are aiming at an enemy. The crosshair flips to the side, because it shows you, that right now, you would not hit your target, but the cover instead. If you were to turn off said feature, you would ADS, shoot at your target, but your bullets would just land in the tree or rock your sitting behind... What good does that do? If you're aiming right, and using cover right, the crosshair "flipping" would never take affect. Why would you not want to know when your bullets aren't going to hit your desired target?

I have to agree, I don't see the problem with telling the two uniforms apart. Take your time, look where the target is shooting at, if unsure, DONT FIRE! I kinda have to admit that I get a little pissed when being TKed. In other games I don't see it as that big a deal, because there's a lot of action going on, and with all the explosions, tank fire and general shooting going on, it can happen. But ARMA is a lot more slow paced than, lets say Battlefield. And it really pisses me of that people can't take the 20 seconds to confirm their targets before they start shooting. When in doubt, just don't shoot. You wouldn't risk shooting a friendly in real life either.

I can confirm this. After a couple of days of playing mainly Wasteland and experiencing crashes almost every 10-60 Minutes, I switched to playing Blitzkrieg and haven't had a crash in over 6 Hours of playtime.
