    Experimental 1.7.2.1 test patch

    It works for me, I was actually better off respawning so this worked out for me lol.

    L85A2 disabled? Reaaaly? DICE?

    you'll just have to get used to spotting people without an IR thermal scope. At distance grass doesn't render, the sniper would pretty much have to be in a tree to not be seen.

    Skalisty island

    most, if not all, servers have this patch installed. It was at least 2 mission file revisions ago. It was a feature added by an ArmA 2 OA beta update.

    Soldier Suit!

    There are actually 3 skins besides civilian, soldier, Ghillie and camo. Of course i've never actually seen a pair of soldier clothing, but it is in the game.

    Video - AS50 Quad Kill Short Video

    My bad, when you reloaded that mag because you missed a lot i thought it was because it was empty.

    Video - AS50 Quad Kill Short Video

    by my count you needed about 3 shots per person, not so impressive.

    Got ban for no reason :S

    you would never get a global ban for nothing, you would have to execute an illegal script for a global ban.
  10. I bought it for ACE, preordered actually, I was patiently awaiting the initial release of ACE for OA like I am DayZ 1.7.2. I got the beautiful retail box of combined ops.

    Help?

    update your arma 2 combined ops. http://www.arma2.com/index.php?Itemid=20&option=com_rokdownloads&view=folder〈=en Then install the beta update. http://www.arma2.com/beta-patch.php
  12. Global bans are done by battleye, database bans are DayZ. However, DayZ bans are unreliable since they use the player ID which is easily spoof-able.

    FR16 ( {CQF} Capt. Catsome )

    I don;t understand, how is he actually hacking? The message you see appears sometimes whne a player is killed normally, but also occurs when a player is killed in the debug. Edit: The logs for this user comes up clean, he also played as "Bastards killed kenny." Unless he was using a bypass, which is not likely since his legit scripts show up, he is clean.

    Trying to improve my FPS.

    2 months is a very long time for development of software and engeering of better drivers. Of course it's amazing how the Hard OCP reviewers were able to squize so much out of that 670 and so little out of the 7970. Benchmarks in games such as skyrim are complete Bologna, this review shows the 7970 tying with the gtx 680 (at 2560x1600). DX9 games tend to be faster on AMD cards, Arma 2 is a DX9 game, you will most likely see a bigger improvement with an amd card than a nvidia card. Currently I have a 5870 and wouldn't upgrade for any card on the market right now. http://www.hardocp.com/article/2012/05/14/geforce_680_670_vs_radeon_7970_7950_gaming_perf/2 With the new 12.7 driver the much cheaper AMD counterparts perform almost identically to the commonly challenged nvidia cards. I guess 8 weeks really is a long time, huh? http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/radeon-hd-7970-ghz-edition-review-benchmark,3232-8.html

    Trying to improve my FPS.

    providing your old psu has enough power you may not need to upgrade, although you could use the 100 dollar difference between cards to buy a nice new one. Here's a quick system I came up with, personally I wouldn't buy this case, although it is pretty solid and awesome. http://secure.newegg.com/WishList/PublicWishDetail.aspx?WishListNumber=19707405 Edit: posting the actual review would have been helpful, usually you cite sources. Again, 100 dollars can be put to much better things. That review must have been super old, the amd cards haven't been priced the same as nvidia cards since they were new on the market.

    Trying to improve my FPS.

    Yea but my point was, the 670 isn't that much different price wise but performs better. If you can overclock a 7950 to pretty much 7970 performance how is a 670 better? Kepler is absolute garbage for anything other than gaming, keep that in mind if you ever intend to do video or audio processing with gpu acceleration, AMD cards were always better at raw calculations. If you have the extra 80 dollars to waste get a 670, I hope those 6 extra frames make a difference. Yeah it's about the same difference as the 7970 vs the 680, ~100 dollars depending on the model, price calculations done by me are after rebate, lowest price. Note: Arma III physx is cpu based with gpu acceleration, so don't bring it up anyone.

    Trying to improve my FPS.

    There's honestly no point in buying new last generation hardware, unless you are going to sli or crossfire. This is by far the best card for your money, it can be overclocked to 7970 speeds and match its performance, an overclocked 7970 can beat a gtx 680 easily. Also don't let idiots tell you there are driver issues, they are long gone. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?SID=vI3NVslOEeGw61riAfNBtA0_0_0_0_0&AID=10440897&PID=1225267&nm_mc=AFC-C8Junction&cm_mmc=AFC-C8Junction-_-cables-_-na-_-na&Item=N82E16814127667 It also comes with 3 free games, rather then some poor-man's photoshop.

    L85 needs to be changed

    the only thing it's good for is spotting, attempting to actually use the gun will most likely get you killed. The thing hardly ever hurts someone even at point blank range.
  19. The system is automated in some cases, if you are running cheat engine, hxd or any other program in which you can modify the application's memory then you will be added to the server's local ban list. Of course you may receive a global ban for this in about 2 days, but that's up to the people at battleye.
