Depends if you have fun in sandbox games and like modding. Also you absolutely need friends or a unit to enjoy it.

>>343528118
Depends on whether you like 15 fps slide shows even with SLI 1080s.

>>343528118
It's a really fun game if you like using an editor. This is my personal opinion since I don't play much other then missions I create and publish.

I only play singleplayer or solo and enjoy it quite a bit.

Arma is more CPU heavy.

>>343528696
Indeed! I'm working for a year now on pic related. Still scripting and modding stuff and nearly complete. Originally it was a mission exclusive for my unit but I'm planning on publishing it soon on the workshop. It features Zargabad filled to the brim with units, models and stuff to do. Still runs pretty well thanks to arma 2 assets and map.

Maybe on the loadint screen. I got 10-30 fps in the tutorial on everything low with a 980 ti. Got anywhere from 10-30 online also. Completely unplayable trash.

For single player then its great.

For multiplayer then its shit. FPS is tied to server so if your server you play on is shit; your fps is also shit no matter how good your rig is.

Tweaks against low fps, lower settings sometimes increase the CPU load and therfore give worse fps.

- Set Texture Details to ultra or very high
- Set Object Detaisl to ultra or very high
- Terrain ultra or very high
- Shadows Disable or Ultra/Very high
- Particles on low
- Clouds disable or very low
- PIP disable
- HDR high
- SSAO off or high
- Caustics off
- View distance is the biggest fps killer and you should turn it down of you still have fps drops.
- ATOC off or grass only.

Start with parameters: -maxmem xxx -maxvram xxx -malloc=system

-enableHT or -cpucount= xxx

Nvidia Settings:
-> Powermanagement: maximum performance
-> Maximum amount of the prerendered pictures: 1
-> Multi-Display GPU-Acceleration: Singlesystem performance

-> PhysX: GPU

In the cfg:
GPU_MaxFramesAhead=1;
GPU_DetectedFramesAhead=1;

It is good but very special.
The popular RPG mode is sub-par
Best experienced if you know russian, because пиTyшинo Serious Games, but I've heard it's possible to find some english-speaking squads
