Default Arma2

Just a question , anybody here have ARMA2? If so can you run that with full detail? I tried this and it brought my computer down too it's knees. Ran about 6fps. The biggest killer was the draw distance , turn that right up and you have a COD scenario with an entire island visible if you are in a plane.

Arma2 has been out for years and computers still struggle with it. COD isnt doing too bad performance wise it's just unfinished. We shouldnt be too hard on the guys at 1C.

Default Arma2

I have it, I can't run it of full settings either it does some wierd stuff with the trees, but I can run it on the next setting down and it's very good, FPS is high. I don't think I could play it with a load of stuff happening though...similar to CoD, I can fly with 20 or so planes but any more and it starts to be a bit jumpy.

I'm quite happy with how CoD is playing graphically, just wish my multiplayer worked, but that was my fault for installing the beta patch

You need a fast quad core CPU to squeeze this game, downing draw distance and some options you can obtain good FPS but when there action around my CPU just bottleneck the game.

I dont know if you guys are aware of this :





Is a game in development using the ArmA2 engine

This game is to first person shooters, what IL-2 is to flightsims. A complete game, with random unscripted events, a powerful mission builder and huge maps that serves as an arena for simulated warfare.

I've played Operation flashpoint since it came out a decade ago and still have the entire series in my shelf Play ARMA 2 now adays with some of the awesome mods

That new game Looks good doesn't it. I've attached my ps3 controller and trackIR to ARMA2 and it's great. I presume you were talking about Operation Arrowhead not the original ARMA2.
