    reading the forums its seems there will be a ‘easy’ mode to get more sales but the proper RO mode sounds the bollocks…the suppressive fire from cover is fecking awesome……i have even re downloaded RO just to get me eye in again:)

    ps check out the vids

    things to bear in mind:

    there are no towns/cities…just small holdings
    no lean feature
    no walk (although the ai can do both)
    think you will find it takes 4.5 hrs to cross the island (lengthways)
    in coop mode you are tethered at 250m
    hardly anything released about mp (don’t think the whole island will be accessible)

    if anyone is interested in this or thinks it is the next ofp, i suggest waiting for the demo.

    for the few that loved RO…check out Tripwires next ww11 offering, the vids are sweet http://forums.tripwireinteractive.com/forumdisplay.php?f=73″ onclick=”window.open(this.href);return false;

    my comp cant cope on high setting in the demo and i dont see a huge amount of difference to Arma unless graphics are fully tweaked. Still feels like half a game like ARMA did bugs gallore

    it is very good looking on high…..there are a lot of bugs (publisher made them get it out early) in the sp modes, dont play that so it dosent bother me, there have been 2 patches and as with Bis the community will use the editor/tools to enhance the game.

    Is it worth it?

    if like simulations, then yes, ppl with top end rigs are having issues, i am managing 30-50fps in mp with all high, med shadows and no aa (24″ monitor)

    the work gone into it is well impressive, if your expecting bf2 styleee do not buy.

    mostly coop but the ‘hold’ game type is good with the right ppl and there will be lots of user made PvP missions/maps

    hmmm

    okay, after a lot of research i bought the best motherboard for my budget, i bought a cpu i knew that with the motherboard i could get over 3 gigs with, i was told not to buy the 3890×2, but against their advice i bought it. As i said read, read and read. Buying some generic shit will not get you the best ‘bang for buck’ get the best you can for your set budget.

    with my quad i can (as i do) play a game and convert videos without any slow down at the time, i do not have to turn any services off, the q6600 was considered the best (ie bang for buck) oc chip out there at the time and suited my needs, turks has a budget, he wants the best for his money, i am not suggesting he gets a quad or tri sli but only the best components for his budget.

    tbh your condescending tone is pissing me off.

    good luck in your purchase Turks

    my pc’s been on for several days and at present is using 2.419mb ram..ok a reboot and it will be 1.2ish, (and there are services i could switch off) 4gig of ddr2 6400 will set you back £40…worth it in my opinion, you need more than 2 to get the best out of vista.

    re the psu, a large watt is redundant if it is shit , a quality 5-600 psu for a single gfx is fine, my corsiar 520 is running my overclocked quad, 4 gigs ram(oh you need it alright) 2 hd’s, xfi sound card,dvd rw and a 4890 overclocked fine.

    the overclocker forums are without doubt (some cocks i know) the best place for advice re pc speccing, i have been pushing my pc’s as far as they can go for the last 6ish years, all with advice from there.

    didnt say buy it from overclockers i said read the forums…..vista and 2 gigs of ram…no, do not buy a no name psu if you want to up grade in the future.

    read the oc forums turks and buy from wherever…they will spec you the best for your money

    *edit the rig specified by mattus in second link with a 4890 would be the best bet…read,read and read

    water cooling is a waste unless your into 1. silent or 2. extreme overclocking

    with a decent cooler (can beat water cooling) and cpu decent clocks can be had….my lads intel 6400 duo 1.8 sits at 3 comfortably (with a £15 cooling fan), my q6600 quad 2.4 sits at 3.2 (theres more in it but my case is pants, heat)

    best bang for buck gfx is ati 4890 1g can be had for £140 ish, ram is mega cheap at the mo so not less than four gigs (above can give problems in some games)

    check out threads at overclockers.com for specs in your price range, been out of the loop for a while, but these guys are helpful.

    i think you can get windows 7 RC free until next april ?

    spend your money on a decent (not the best, but best overclocker/stable) mother board, cpu and gfx

    you should be able to build a decent rig for your budget 😀

    Edit. had a quick look….http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=18027516″ onclick=”window.open(this.href);return false; a few errors but go for 4890 gfx or http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=18027715″ onclick=”window.open(this.href);return false; check out Mattus spec but add the 4890 (best budget rig imo)

    whatever you do get the ati 4890 (any flavour) eats my ati 3890×2 by miles…very very impressive, had mine for a week…best card for the money, my 3890×2 cost almost £300!!!!

    already bought Arma2

    ofp is bf2 imo…been reading their forums, lead designer left for (crysis team) and he was instrumental in the realism side….

    lots not quite right with it…..exploding red barrels (game cliche)
    an island with no towns
    no lean
    no trackir/freetrack support

    seems to catering for the console market tbh, which isint a bad thing but we pc users will end up with a port 👿

    gets a bit heated there but its funny 😆

    edit: oh for those interested AA3 is released tomorrow on steam
