I'm going to see if I can get on that wasteland server. Thanks for the details!

Trying to join wasteland servers will result in a crash every time for me

Anyone like to be super kind and send an Alpha invite my way? I haven't played any of the ARMA series so would really like to check it out. jrwagh333 is my Steam name

Great thanks, a rough idea is all im after as i know its nowhere near optimised yet

This is what the game is auto detecting at with my GTX660

runs about 30fps at that although it dips into the late 20's quite often. I'd imaging tweaking the settings will gain over 30+ fps so at 1080p it may even be better. Thats running on a GTX660 and a [email protected].

 

[Bennie-Mac]

Thanks for that much appreciated

I'm running it pretty much maxed out bar post-processing and AA x 2 and getting 30-40 FPS on a 570 with a 2500k. I am pretty shocked at how well it runs.

Why won't my work day end!

Threw together a list if a few ideas for an attack and defend mission.

Will have a chat about this with you later, see if we can work on it together.

Looking forward to hearing them, hopefully we can knock something up!

I was hopeless with being able to find any decent arma 2 servers, If I get the alpha (how does paying for an alpha work btw?) Is it relatively easy to get involved online, I loved the Arma 2/OPF SP and would love to play online.

I'm running most things on high/medium, no post processing and AA x2 on my GTX 580 with 2500k and getting around 25-30 fps

@ 2560x1400 though.

@ 2560x1400 though.

I am only on 1920 x 1080 it does help and still looks stunning. I am fortunate enough to have TrackIr which really helps keep the immersion going.

Is it possible to get an invite please - Will give it a try before buying.

Does the £20 alpha version give access to the full game I take it?

So nice to finally play an arma game without the clunky movement. Just had an epic 'Escape from Stratis' with 7 randoms... we survived like commandos for about an hour until we all huddled around a weapons crate in a camp we had just cleared and someone accidently threw a grenade and got all of us D:

I have just purchased it, any suggested servers?

Nice of him to give you a heads up

 

[Strife212]

On high I get between 25-45 FPS, with a i7 960 and SLI GTX 480 at 1920x1200.

Filter OcUK in the multiplayer menu, should bring up 2 servers with different missions.
MGT server password is overclockers.

Had some fun on the wasteland server mentioned above with CK and Josh making Toejams life miserable.

How to install ArmA 3 on a RAMDisk

Important notes

• Recommended System Memory - 10-12GB+
• ArmA 3 must already be installed on one of your HDD's

----

I made a RAMDisk tutorial yesterday but I missed a few important steps which caused the game to delete upon unmounting the RAMDisk. Sorry if it effected you after watching that video.

I get 20-40 FPS with most settings on ultra at 1600p (auto detect) I want more steady frames what are some good things to lower?
