>>332214873
Pretty much

I have 200 hours but I just gave up on the game about a year ago because of the FPS issues. It's not up and down framerate, it's always consistent. Some servers I will get 60 and some I will get 20. I've read this is because the game's engine ties framerate to server performance. I love the concept of the game but their engine is such a pile of fucking wank. And then there's other annoying things like the shit animations and lack of tactical PvP. I get what I always wanted from Arma in Squad and PR, so I have no reason to play Arma anymore. Unless they announce Arma 4 and it's actually got a proper engine overhaul.

Whan they released Altis I was hoping for a very green nice looking forest or some sort of snow level.
What we got was a huge boring brown desert wannabe map. I went to the big "salt lake" or whatever and was extremely disappointed that it was completely empty.

Why can't they just make a map like Namalsk or something new and cool? No, now we're gonna get that uninspired jungle map which will make you have sub 20 fps, thanks bohemia interactive.

Fuck, if you're not gonna add good maps atleast add a shitton of weapons or vehicles then. How hard can it be?

Try doing some research and playing on servers with optimized scripts,loadouts, etc. I promise you that you're doing it wrong if you think hopping into some random populated I&A server reflects how Arma runs.

I tried, I really did. But between the servers and client fps being tied together, the shitty net code and how clunky everything is. It ruined the experience for me. Its a lot better when you get a private server with some friends and you dont have to deal with that shit but then you dont get the whole "large scale combat" that I wanted.

What do you do in Arma games?

I saw videos on youtube but they were all about a group of friends running around, chatting and generally doing nothing.

Is there a campaign story mode? What are the online gametypes? Are there co-op missions vs. AI enemies or are you just placed in an open-world and you're supposed to create your own goals to have fun?
>>
>>332215707
the game should be reviewed by itself and not the mods, if you need the mods to make your case then the game is bad
>>
>>332216128
Since a big part of Arma performance is streaming shit from your HDD, yours is probably dying. Even if it isn't an HDD problem, your issue really seems like some type of hardware is malfunctioning.

>>332216171
Says morons who don't understand the point of Arma.
>>
>>332216151
This is generally a user content created game. You got co-op vs bots and things like King of the Hill game type which is a 3 way fight with some rpg elements for unlocking better gear which is fun. But expect 30-40 fps max on a popular server.
>>
>>332216151
There's a campaign, but it's pretty dull until you get your own squad. That's when it really has the potential to shine.
And it's cool how you can customize their loadouts and give them all these different commands, but they're so bad at carrying those commands out you're best off just sending them head on into the enemy while you flank around back alone.
>>
>>332216171
Arma IS mods. The developers actually work with modders to develop an adequate platform for them to make shit.

Not even him, I don't play in Broma. It's fact you have far less situational awareness because Arma 3 is a game and imposes limits on the players in terms of FOV, movement, and physical deprivation (you can't feel through a game). Your hearing is also impeded because you can't pick up all the small things you would hear IRL.

You are a retard and you don't know what you're talking about.
>>
>>332217591
arma 3 is supposed to be 2035+ shit so I guess they're thinking the AK will have been phased out by then. The new expansion is bringing in more factions so we might get some vanilla AKs after all.

Do you guys have an AMD cpu? That'd be a big reason why your fps is dogshit. For Arma your single core clock speed is fucking huge regarding performance so you'll probably have to become the good goy and give intel some shekels before you can get a playable FPS for A3.

Performance depends on so many things. If you just play on stock maps with stock stuff it will perform fine.

No, part of the reason I had bad FPS with A3G is because the server was capped. I can play single player ARMA 3 fine but the server cap was destroying me. But I had fun with some of the ex-members so I stayed. Once they were gone, it really didn't leave me any reason to stay.

yeah, that was the problem. How to find a fucking vanilla server. SO many servers run mods that apparantly impact performance,

Two completely different teams dedicated to developing each.

>>
Why i don't play ArmA 3 ?

Well let's see, because it runs like shit in multiplayer whatever the conditions or the server backing the scenario up.

>y-your missions are shit and your m-mods too !

See that's one part of the problem. They're asking way too much out of the user. Technically speaking the user has to do all the fucking optimization job to ensure that his fucking mission or the mods he's running won't bring his framerate in the sub 30s. You don't realize how much work that fucking shit represent, it's like a part job.

Talking about mods, ACE + ACRE alone will annihilate your framerate in multiplayer, and these two mods are mandatory otherwise the game is shit and dull as fuck.

There's just no escape with ArmA. It will run like shit for the end of times, and so my interest in the game will remain minimal until the end of times.

Wrong, depends on many things. I finished a session tonight with a group, lots of AI, mods included, 40 fps was the worst framerate throughout.

>See that's one part of the problem. They're asking way too much out of the user. Technically speaking the user has to do all the fucking optimization job to ensure that his fucking mission or the mods he's running won't bring his framerate in the sub 30s.

No it isn't too much at all. Turn on garbage collection in the editor. Don't download shitty mods.

>Talking about mods, ACE + ACRE alone will annihilate your framerate in multiplayer, and these two mods are mandatory otherwise the game is shit and dull as fuck.
Also wrong. ACE barely reduces performance (maybe 1 or 2 fps less), ACRE as of the last public patch also doesn't reduce performance.

>There's just no escape with ArmA. It will run like shit for the end of times, and so my interest in the game will remain minimal until the end of times.

Graphics suck? The graphics are phenomenal. There might be only a handful of games that can match it.
