It would be very nice if that were true. My expensive rig would like to have a word with you on your final comment, however.

OP got carried away with the topic title, ignore that superficial error and look at the actual point. The engine itself needs to be fixed. I expect there will be significant FPS increases soon which MIGHT get me to at least 30 fps in large cities, but something tells me that is wishful thinking. I played through Arma3's alpha, beta, and then to release and performance was absolutely dreadful for awhile, but now that the game has been fully released it performs well, though not as well as it could. That is the point people are trying to make. The pathetic CPU and GPU utilization will always be around. Arma 2 wasn't "successful" because it just wasn't accessible to enough people. Bohemia has really improved their quality of game design and how they execute it. DayZ won't have that much of an issue, but in the grand scheme of things it will hurt it. If they put in the incredible amount of work to address the issue (which I really hope they do), then it will only open more doors for the devs and players both.
