ArmA 2 PC

Recommended Posts

I have been waiting for Operation Flashpoint 2 to come out but in the mean time ArmA 2 is due this month.

I hear its gonna need some big PC specs to run on anything over 1200 res.

Anyone else looking forward to this or thinking maybe not?

I've been waiting for it for years. It should be pretty good, not so much cod4 but more milsim with proper ballistics and no stopping power or juggernaut perks!

 

I don't think it'll need that big a rig to run it as the german version is already out and they're saying it runs better than arma1 did, just bring the settings down a bit and you should be fine. Apparently the demo was run by the developer on a 2.4 gig intel dual core and it was all good.

Got it on pre-order along with OpFlash2 (delays, delays, delays..)

 

Very much enjoyed Modern Warfare multiplayer, somehow I think this might not be in quite the same vein, but should provide plenty of scope for tactical team play and less snapshot kills.

 

I'm just looking forward to flying/driving the troop transports, I really used to enjoy being a dropship pilot in Planetside, nothing has been made that matched the scale of that again, so i'm hoping for big things from Arma2 and OpFlash2.

 

I can but hope!

I've never heard of either of those games so just watched the trailers on play. The graphics of ArmA II don't look particularly good so I doubt it's run that badly. Flashpoint II looks pretty impressive though!

 

 

The graphics in arma2 are quite good but as in all its predecessors it was the physics and draw distances that caused running problems. In arma1 you could set the draw distance to 10,000m, so if you where flying a jet low and fast the gpu had a lot to render.

 

I'm looking forward to sitting in a bush with a sniper rifle so I can get loads of abuse from people calling me a sniping camping barsteward:) In arma1 me and a friend used to sit nearly a kilometer away from towns with two barrat .50's and wait for helicopters to come in, mucho fun;)
