Thanks to Squaredude for the Key and Cravez for the offer.

Q6600 @ 3Ghz & HD4890 does not achieve consistently playable frame rates even on low settings.

balkieb2002 · 19-03-2013 3:15pm

If there are any spare Aplha-lite keys left, i would love to have one.

Want to see can my current rig run it smoothly.

What are your specs?

balkieb2002 · 19-03-2013 3:47pm

i5 2500K at stock speed
HD 6870
12GB RAM

Shouldn't have a problem running it i'd say but I want to see what I can run it at and how smoothly.

Anyone find some decent missions to play? Haven't played this much in the last few days. Is wasteland still full of hackers & very buggy?

ktulu123 · 19-03-2013 6:09pm

Never mind...Watched Sacriel's stream for 10 mins & scripters messed up the server 3 times. I hope they get battleye sorted with it soon

Just for reference, the keys don't work online.

I gave one to a friend last night thinking we could play, but its just the showcases.

On another note, I have two left.

I still have one as well, first to PM a Steam name gets it.

Dcully · 25-03-2013 2:32pm

Guys quick question, is there a working wasteland for this?
Also is there multiplayer game modes? , not co-op i found co-op a soozefest in arma 2.

Genghiz Cohen · 25-03-2013 2:33pm

Still have 2.

Yes there is a wasteland mission although it's extremely boring & a bit buggy. The map doesn't suit wasteland at all. Blitzkrieg is meant to be a good multiplayer mission. It's pretty much conquest from Battlefield.

ktulu123 · 25-03-2013 2:54pm

Yeah they were swimming on the shore anyway

platinums · 25-03-2013 3:25pm

Shame the Gaellords BlitzKrieg is empty every time i jump on to play.

Tee Times Warfare has been occupying my attention, its a port of Warfare Be (Benny) from Arma II.

You can purchase units ( Sniper, Demo Man, Rifle Man) up to 5, then purchase vehicles guns etc.

I stick all my units in a chopper and go take out a camp, OR stick all my units into their own choppers and form my own sky platoon thus striking terror into OPFOR and spreading fear throughout Stratis..

So what's he's saying is he's got an illegal copy and is selling it?

ktulu123 · 27-04-2013 1:14am

Don't think its illegal, its just one of the 2 Arma 3 Lite keys everyone got when they bought the game. Total muppet!

the_syco · 23-05-2013 5:14pm

Has anyone being playing Wastelands in ARMA3 recently?

Used to play it quite a bit in ARMA2, but it wasn't really quite ready when I tried it in ARMA3 (at the time there was limited weapon boxes, few vehicles, etc).

dreamers75 · 23-05-2013 5:19pm

Alpha coming to an end soon, game has been downloading the beta the last few days.

18th of June Alpha will be gone, 900mb update wonder what it broke

dreamers75 · 25-05-2013 7:40pm

New Sniper rifle is quality.

1.4 km is my longest kill atm.

simon360 · 21-06-2013 12:36pm

Beta is out now if you're on the development beta. To get to that its right click on arma 3 in steam library > Properties > betas > Development build. Your arma 3 should do a 1.2gb update. By the way new vehicles are awesome

jumbobreakfast · 21-06-2013 2:22pm

have they tripled the framerates and quadrupled the map size from the alpha?

errrm nope

Still on Stratis.

jumbobreakfast · 21-06-2013 3:10pm

I was only joking but I was surprised to read on the official arma 3 forums that there have been significant (+10fps) performance increases, so that is great news. I also read several months ago that Nvidia mentioned that they would release an optimised driver but not during the alpha...so maybe we'll get that soon as well. Playing wasteland the last few nights was good fun but the poor fps makes it a bit tiring
