hm performance etc seems to be bugi... waiting for some patches before I'm going to give it another go
and its seems that this game has vsync enabled by default.. that would explain why the fps doesn't go over 60 .....
graphically this game looks OK. (played on normal, dint try the high) and the view distance is quite lovely... but it runs like crap if you compare how it looks. Seems to me its badly optimized or shit like that

also thing that made me mad a bit is the climbing a ladder animation..the hands are in the air pretending like holding the ladder..i mean come on...this is 2007.
i understood the idea of the game..be more realistic army sim...but i am not sure they did it well. |

So it's definitely much more complex than OFP right? I don't remember wind and gravity being taken into account.

Guys, BIS has said that Arma is just an upgraded OFP. Look at it as OFP 1.5. They made this so we would have something to play with until the true sequel is comming out. Its current workname is just Game2. It will have alot of the features that can be found in VBS and it is the true sequel to OFP.
When it comes to Arma, it still has lots of bugs and is unstable. This was due to publishers pushing for a release (Morphicon and Lem). Right now it's a fanboy release and unless you're a fanboy you won't enjoy it for another 2-3 patches. Those who played (and enjoyed) OFP finds the graphics stunning. Those who expect Quake 8 or whatever version its in now, will be disapointed. Here the game-engine is in focus, not the gfx-engine as you'll find in many FPS games. Unless you enjoy combat sims, (and BF2 is not a sim) you won't enjoy the game. I don't understand why people are getting so worked up about this.
Anyways, moving on to my problem.  I used the Procyon version to install, entered my german key and had the german (original) DVD in. Arma then turned german on me. Reading the nfo, they refer to a tools dir, but that's not there so I don't have the loader that hides Daemon Tools from SecuROM. Can anyone tell me what the tool is called?

Yes, I do. But I would also like to think that developers learn from their mistakes - obviously not the case with Bohemia. |

Thanks proekaan. I mounted the image, but there's no tools folder on the image. Seems like I'm misunderstanding something but I'll DL YASU.

You say that like it's acceptable to release unoptimized crap like this... Sorry, I think this is unacceptable! Because of people like you, EA and UBI thrive with success! |

A lot of people will buy it because despite the bugs it's still the best game in it's genre. You weigh the pro's and con's and no matter what you throw at Armed Assault you're going to come away with egg on your face; other than Operation Flashpoint and VBS1 there isn't any competition.

there *will* be patches and shitloads of community updates/mods/addons..same as operation flashpoint, the games tend to be either the kinda game you love(and put up with minor bugs) or dont like at all , i havent really seen anyone who just thinks it and opfla as just *ok*
personally opfla and ArmA,for me-are damn good games,flawed on release,but with a wealth of community support (kinda like the raven shield games/ghost recon *used* to be like-but lets not go there)
when there is no more room in hell, the D34D will walk the earth

sorry to intrude so late.. but with the amount of attention this game recieves here, i really want to check out my self.. sadly (till the retail ver comes out) my computer disagrees with me..
Using the procyon release, DT 4.08 HE + SPTD 1.38 and yasu 1.07 i still have the "Conflict with Emu S/w detected" error..
I know that this has been talked about endless amounts of time but if someone could throw a hint my way i would be most grateful..
I really enjoyed OFP so im eager to play this one..
Thanks.

Anyone been able to actually create a valid key for online play with Armed_Assault_Keygen-RazorDOX like they claim you do when making keys with their keygen?
Ive yet to find a key that doesnt give me "invalid key" when trying to connect to a server.
Is it me or was RazorDOX on drugs when making this claim?

Maybe they meant that you can play online with their keygen, but you must be using a private server?

Heh do you honestly belive they have survived 4-5 years on OFP/OFP:Elite alone? Their main income is from VBS where their customers are amongst others the USMC.
Seriously though, being a hardcore OFP fan I'm glad the release was pre-mature. I'm playing alot of Arma despite crashing once an hour. The sad thing about it is that it might discourage people from playing/buying it when it is ... presentable I guess. A public beta with proper debug-reporting and a worldwide release certainly would be preferred but I'm sure they had their reasons.

I don't know what you all are talking about when you say this game is full of bugs and unfinished... I've been playing it for hours today and hours yeterday and last night... and I've only ran into 1 bug and it was simply resolved by restarting the mission. oh and sometimes the waypoint of your next move will disappear but this is resolved by looking at the map and then returning to game.
It's obvious that the game isn't optimized as good as it could be, especially seeing the devs are working on the next patch to improve the overall smoothness of the game.
I have all the settings on very high and the game runs fine, it gets a little choppy sometimes but like i said the devs are working on a patch to fix this. come on now before the game is even released in the US the improvements will be added and the product as you see will be 'finished' (just optimized to run on your medi-core systems).

don't know much about ATI cards but my guess is that your card maybe doesn't support pixel shader 2.0 which is required to run this game... just a guess.

I have an X800XL and got this same problem, however only after installing the czech-2-english patch. I have restored the original language files and am not getting this problem anymore. However I'm not gonna play this game in Czech obviously. Waiting for a fix for this here.
EDIT: Have reinstalled the game, this time in english. Use the key provided in the nfo and the game will be installed in english (1st time around I used a googled key, obviously coming from a Czech version of the game). Time to test this.

Wanted to post a quick tip for anyone who's getting the annoying: Emulation Software conflict error even tho you have the latest YASU & Daemon Tools 4.08HE....the problem is that you probably have OTHER emu software installed and need to disable or uninstall it. All you have to do is follow the blue link in Securom's message (they're so helpful sometimes) and it will tell you exactly what software is causing the problem. Sure enough I had blind write installed and one of its components was causing the problem. Hope it helps.
