Lunatic:
Are you really going to argue with me ad nauseam about the exact details of my config?

I have a computer that can play every game on the market on medium at least, usually high or very high. I play Arma 2, a 3 year old game, and it's slow as stuff. It's exclusive to Arma 2. I look at the GFX details, and they're not that good.

1. My computer is the same computer as it is when playing other games.
2. The computer game Arma 2 is not as visually exciting as other games.
3. The computer game Arma 2 is not as well running as other games.

So, this means to me, that Arma 2 is providing less visual detail while consuming more resources.

I'll give it a better chance when I can actually sit down and commit to it. I really dove in with the overly hopeful idea that this was going to be the best thing ever and I ended up disappointed.

IMO, the players look fine, sure they're not Crysis 2 style detailed, but I like the simplicity.

1. Arma 2 is poorly optimized, you should know that mid end builds will not be able to run the game that well.
2. Visual exciting, blah blah blah, is everything about graphics these days? Sure the graphics are not super calibre, but the gameplay makes up for it, too bad you don't like the gameplay since you don't like slow paced gameply.

Basically all I'm saying is you should've researched carefully and well thought about it before going on a limb and buying Arma 2, I did that and Im loving it and having fun.

I play and develop add-ons for a game called "Blockland" made with a decade old engine that utilizes a 3D model format that's been antiquated for just as long. I guess you've really solved what drives me to purchase and play something on a deep, fundamental level.

The difference between Blockland and Arma 2, however, is that Blockland both looks super basic and runs at 500FPS.

Same exact situation as me.

I watched a bunch of videos of people fighting off zombies, crawling past enemy people and killing them. Camping on rooftops and killing people in the night. But when I finally bought Arma II combined operations I ended up with the, "Run aroundcrawl at .5 MPH for 2 hours before finding a weapon" simulator.

I know what Blockland is lol.

Blockland is way more simple graphics than Arma 2, can you not see the difference? Let's just say this, the 3d models in Arma 2 are 100x more complex than the ones in blockland
