As the post above yours indicates, ARMA uses 1 core/thread only. So the CPU with the fastest single core performance is what you want, which is pretty much nothing from AMD. So much wasted potential, the bones of this game are archaic.

All the DLC I bought this year and last has not generated a better engine, nor are there any apparent plans to fix it in the future. Really, this new paradigm of supporting game development through DLC is bunk. Its just furthers the desire to make more DLC, not a new engine. Of course, the engine is basically tapped out, it can't be fixed without significant or complete rewrite anyways. If you want AMRA 3 to be better, its simply not happening. Artist could be making assets for ARMA 4, why aren't they? Probably because there is nothing even close to ARMA 4 in development.

I really do wonder if BI gives a shit, there is no reason for a doorway to be almost too small to get through. Opening a door while standing anywhere near its swing still results in you clipping into it and getting stuck. They have been making this game for 10yrs, and still can't manage a functional door? :blink: APEX is the apex of meh DLC that is surpassed by 90% of the modding community.

You still cant walk up stairs while crouched! This and many other obscene problems still exist after years of 'development'. Also, some of the buildings on Tanoa seem scaled wrong, like the ATC towers, which are barely bigger than a life guard beach tower.

I was able to fix this issue by reverting to an older bios for my mobo. Not sure if it was a bad bios, or just a bad updat; overclocking seemed to exacerbate the issue. Still happens very infrequently, usually associated with a serverwide crash of multiple players.

Bad news...

Its the sadest part about Bohemia, the fixes already exist, yet they still wont use them.

Crawls over pebble, forced to stand up.:j:

Considering ARMA revolves around mods, this is not the way it should work. The server should be telling the client what mods to be activated when they join, or directing them to download it. You should not be activating mods before you have even chosen what server/mod you want to play. The life blood of this game, still requires wonky decade old implementation schemes.:(

Thats a bug, not a performance increase, not to mention looking down scopes can still screw the game up. Have they even fixed the FOV issue with scopes yet?

Where are you seeing this?

I haven't played with AI in a meaningful way in this game for years. Yet the list you posted, is an unfortunately spot on description of some of the major problems I remember them having, from years ago. These are overt problems, and have nothing to do with specific missions. I can see how frustrating it can be, everyone claiming every problem is a must fix. This is a symptom though, of bugs that have persisted through multiple iterations of the game.

Unfortunately that means I have gotten what I have paid for. Which means at this point, I would rather pay for a 'new' game, not DLC. Thats the point, I don't want to shell out money for 2 helicopters, I would rather shell out money for actual fixes, which would hopefully be so expansive as to practically be a 'new' game. The community is already apt to create such content like vehicles, weapons, sounds, effects, etc., but real fixes in game performance/mechanics need to come from BI. Which is what is so frustrating, as they are the only ones who can make these changes.

Thats what everyone should take away from this, no amount of money will make this game better, buying DLC will not make this game better.

It would be nice if you could access the inventory of a dead body without the weapon blocking it. No, everything must be difficult and unwieldy in Arma, cause who wants a good game anyway?
