  1. By the way BirdDog, do you know RadeonPro? It seems to replace D3DOverrider besides being also a game profiler. http://www.radeonpro.info/ Very interesting tool.
  2. For best performance it must be configured for Box Also turn Catalyst AI to "Standard" and you may even try in "Advanced". I've also my Catalyst settings optimized for Performance and not for Quality. Here's an old guide, but it give you an explanation of the Catalyst functions. I also wonder, if with 1920x1200 resolution, one really need the antialiasing on. This: And you can also disable shadows.

  7. Say hello to my little friend!

    Congratulations Creaghorn! Another OFFer is born. Best wishes! :drinks:
  8. It's gone so quiet here...

    Probably some info will appear near the release date. Some developers, feel more comfortable, working in this way. I think it's months away from being release. EDIT: Are you enjoying Mafia 2, UK? I've played for 1 hour, while I enjoyed the 50's recreation, the gameplay was not so good.

  15. Worst 2 Winger landing

    Did they use live cows for this movie?
  16. I cannot understand how you could be disrespectful with your father by playing BIA or any other foot soldier sim. Well I understand what you mean, but... disrespectful. War is such a personal experience and all these "sims" cannot portrait it. And even if they could do it, I still don't see why. You're are also not able to understand fully you father experience, unless you've been through the same. And even there, it could be just different. You would disrespect your father more if you were a thief, a dishonest or a lier than just playing, and in the end obtain some pleasure, with a WWII infantry simulator. But that's just my opinion. I respect your. Anyway DCS is the best Heli simulator so far. It's a good choice, Ras.
  17. You should Pol. After one year of patches there are less bugs, the engine it's a little more optimized, specially in terms of CPU. Besides now you have ACE mod, which is a must. I never had much problems with ArmA, but there were some people complaining. But I'm used to that. It was like that when Operation Flashpoint was launched and with the First ArmA.
  18. Another video. And when you join a squad you can play co-op in a organized manner. An example:
  19. ArmA was never a free game. Only the mods are free. Only there are hundreds of mods. There's an organized development mod community around ArmA and BIS products. Look at here and see what the community created, missions, models, tools, etc in the last couple of days. http://www.armaholic.com/ Everyday there's something new. BIA which is a branch of BIS sells VBS (virtual Battle Simulator) to some armies around the world, including the USMC, Australian Defense Force, British Army, US Army, etc. VBS is the professional version of ArmA. Some time ago, the UK MoD released a VBS-Jcove Lite, a limited version of the real-deal VBS2 the British forces use for training. There's also a free version with US Army called VBS2 US Army Lite. You can google to download both of them. This is not a simple FPS. It's Tactical FPS, a military simulator. Not all video game players will like it.
  20. Yes, in the beginning, it was buggy. To be honest, their games are always buggy. But alas, they produce a unique product, a sandbox milsim, with a true AI,. It's not a corridor shooter. Their scope is quite big. Besides like OBD, the developers support their games. There's a big loyal community around them,creating thousands of mods, missions, etc. It's a world in there. You can find even a , and as far as I know there are some people modding some WWI planes. It's a milsim with a focus in infantry actions. Because it's a open world, you can pilot tanks, planes, bikes, cars, etc. It's a flight simulator or a tank simulator? No. After one year of patches (each month there are several beta patches) ArmA II it's running well. The new stand alone expansion, Operation Arrowhead, is already being patched. Of course because of it's nature, it's a little demanding in term of PC specs; I won't lie that while it takes full advantage of having a full quad, you can play it with a good Core2Duo. Why not test it with a demo? ArmA II demo here and ArmA II: Operation Arrowhead here. A video made by a fan with ArmA II It can be pretty chaotic sometimes. Usually mistakes like this and you'll have a payback.
  21. Well Hasse, there will be 2 interesating mods for ArmA II; one called Invasion 1944 and the other Wacht am Rhein. With ArmA series, usually there's not much rambo style. It's more tactical. http://ofp.gamepark.cz/_hosted/digitalwarfarestudios/inv44/gallery/
  22. Out of Action

    I also once broke my right wrist playing football. It didn't stop me playing snooker more than 2 weeks. A quick recovery Captain.
  23. I've read so many bad reviews about SH5 and bad opinions from old gamers who played that franchise from the breginning, that I think that SH5, will be one of this year failures. In metacritic they give him 62 and user score is very, very low 2.3. I bet one reason for the low user score is the draconian DRM. Do yourself a favor and buy instead HF2 and continue the saga of Gordon Freeman.
  24. Yesterday while playing, I almost jump off my chair, when in a tunnel a disgusted thing suddenly attacked me from nowhere. I'm too old for that kind of things.
  25. Exactly, Steam is DRM, but not the worst. But go for the Orange box which is a little more expansive. I don't know if the graphics aren't a little better. Besides you'll have episode one and two. You'll have Portal, which is something.... different kind of game, and have team fortress 2.
