What PC do you have? I'm running it at high in an i3 and a 7750. Nothing special but I'm getting decent fps.

I've got an All-in-One at the moment so its an i5-3450s 2.80GHz with a GeForce GT 640M.

Only tend to worry about running games at a reasonable FPS whatever the quality hit.

Yeah like not being able to take guns from vehicles without getting into them first. Also I don't like the way when you use your scroll wheel to highlight "get in vehicle as driver" you have to press enter to get in instead of just clicking.

Instead of pressing enter, you can just press down of the mouse wheel.

or spacebar

Don't want to sound like a scrounger, but if anyone can spare an Alpha Lite code I could gift them a copy of Dead Island

platinums · 14-03-2013 09:59PM

I have a couple Arma 3 lites if anyone is inneed, they must have been added recently. pm or steam id platinums

Also, whats with the [Dev] tag in front of the multiplayer servers

jumbobreakfast · 14-03-2013 11:21PM

I guess it means that those servers allow people with the latest dev version to join. (right click on game in steam-->properties-->beta-->development version)

I'm sticking with the standard alpha version for now as a lot of servers block the dev version and I dont have the bandwidth to be re-downloading arma 3 if the dev versions goes tits up.

the gaellords servers wont be running the dev version at least for the moment.

Not The Real Scarecrow · 14-03-2013 11:38PM

put on the dev version for a bit. Found it far laggier andnot as many servers. Got about 3 crashes in a row and have switched back to the normal one and see how it goes.

been a few days since i played I had forgotten i applied the Beta - turned off now only 4-6 decently pinged servers on offer the rest (100+) block the Beta/Dev version.

Wasteland seems to have transgressed from Arma 2 to 3. Shame the servers or clients keep crashing, Alpha Blues i guess.

Beta not till Q2 2013 whatever that means

How on earth do you actually complete the "Escape from stratis" Co-op mission included in the alpha? Me and my friend got to the airbase with an AI squad, grabbed a heli and flew out of the map but it didn't complete, is it because we left one guy behind or is it bugged?

Think there's Humvee's you need to get into on the east side of the base?

Me and my mate juse flew out of the map and we won. Didn't have to pick up the AI I don't think. Probably a bug.

dan_ep82 · 15-03-2013 01:55PM

Does anyone need/want a alpha lite invite?

Got at least one spare

Cravez · 15-03-2013 02:53PM

I have two Alpha Lite keys to spare, first two people to PM me their steam names will get them.

MadYaker · 15-03-2013 03:41PM

I have 3 to give away.

Dcully · 15-03-2013 03:55PM

What exactly are the lite keys? Either way id like one please, can I play waste land with this?

ktulu123 · 15-03-2013 03:56PM

I think they are only for the single player missions. ie the 4 showcase ones

MadYaker · 15-03-2013 03:58PM

They are kind of like a demo that you'd get free on steam for some games. 4 single player missions and thats it, no multiplayer. But it'd be a good chance to see how it runs on your machine and if you like the feel of it.

As I said I have 3 if anyone wants them PM me with a link to your steam profile.

Spear · 15-03-2013 04:03PM

Alpha lite has no MP or mod support.

synesthesia · 15-03-2013 08:31PM

i still have one lite to give away too.

Played on Gaellords wasteland arma 3 server today .... what a blast!!!

platinums · 16-03-2013 12:49AM

What a shame, was playing a great game of blitzkrieg, and some one starts teleporting everyone to the same spot, queue bulletstorm.

I really wish they worked on the cheating for A3, it may initially not have been designed for public servers but Id say the Public multiplayer is a large part of its commercial success of late.

dan_ep82 · 16-03-2013 01:07AM

AFAIK no anti cheat is running yet

Cravez · 17-03-2013 12:46PM

Still one Alpha lite key left. PM me your steam and it's yours.

dan_ep82 · 17-03-2013 12:51PM

Same,still have 2,maybe 3

CrinkElite · 17-03-2013 12:59PM

Can I have one please? I need to benchmark.
Also, do ye notice a discrepancy between single and multiplayer FPS? (as in with ARMA2)

Damo 2k9 · 17-03-2013 03:28PM

Dan_ep, just sent u a pm, if you still have it that'd be great

flynnlives · 17-03-2013 11:18PM

i'd love a key if someone has one left!
