Just been reading on the Armed assault forums about a program called FSautostart, apparantly flight simmers have used it for a while. Basicly you configure it to shut down all those windows processes that are not needed, it even advises you which are safe to turn off. According to the info i've found about this app it can give some astonishing results, I have'nt used it myself but may well consider it when I get my copy at the weekend. :)

i got

A64 3400+
2Gig DDR 400
6800 GT (128mb though)

It runs ok, but i have to set the draw distance down and turn off the nice special effects anddepthof field which really make it look nice. Also AA is a god send on this game as theres lots of jagged 2D tree leaves everywhere :) ..

It plays fine but dosnt look as nice as id like it to. on mid settings at 1024x768 its a steady 30fps rarly dropping below.

256mb Gram will help with texture res. But a 7800 is required to start using the post processing effects. The other downside is i have a Widescreen monitor and the game look swet @ 1680 x 1050 but obviously dosnt help with performance :)

Cheers for that. I also run a 19" widescreen TFT monitor so I'm looking forward to seeing how it goes.

Could not find a copy of the game in my local town today, I was at work so could not get to anywhere else on the high street. Think it will be Monday before I can get to a place that has it in stock. Just a pity the only versions that are available to buy as a download from the Armed Assault website are the foreign ones.

Looking at your specs that's kind of worrying for the rest of us. I'm glad I held off on buying this game. It may work OK on my setup and from what I have heard it's pot luck whether or not it runs fine
 
The new 'PC Gamer' issue has a new demo, that has two proper single player missions, as well as the multiplayer, that has been available for download.

Just in case some want to give it a bit more of a try before splashing out.

PC Gamer give it 70% and say it far too buggy at the moment...EDGE give it just 5/10 due mainly to unreasonable difficulty.
 
got it to 30 fps on high settings (not very high) but ive dropped aa 2x/af 4x, its still a bit stuttery so im still not happy

i refuse to belive you need a dual 8800 gtx sli setup to play this game at 1680x1050 max setings:mad:

stinka

btw my rig does 11.6k in 3dm 06 and it will do any other game on max

initial thoughts its good looking, but very demanding on system requirements

do you have a full screen highest quality jpeg picture you could host for me on a webpage please so i can see it in its full glory?

really want to see how good that game is.

i tryed it with my 7800gtx on full settings and i got like 8fps, so i got mad and uninstalled it lol
 
Brought this game today and been looking forward to it since I stopped playing the last one, I have to say its a dissapointment.
I can tell theres a excellent game in there but Ive not seen something this unfinished that has been released for a long time.
It better get fixed soon, anyone know when?
 
Next patch is due out in the next couple of weeks. Just keep check the ArmA webby and the BIS forums. There will be plently of patches and addons to come.

That's ridiculous, I didn't realise it was quite that demanding!
