I have artifacting on my gaming laptop ATI 5870 (did a full format and multiple different ati driver tests to no avail), funny story thought it was my Video Card overheating Lol. Got home yesterday and have the same issue on my Desktop PC using a 6870. "Tried lowering all video settings to no avail." Not using Steam Version however everything is fully updated OA Betas and 1.7.2.5 on both rigs, artifacting seems less severe than 1.7.2.4 - never really noticed artifacting on 1.7.2.3 or prior. I apologize for being too chicken shit to get close enough to identify the objects causing such. Also I bought a server yesterday from HFB, can people confirm that tents and vehicles are still messed up? If so than thats quite bad timing no my part... harhar :P

Yeah is it permanent?

I was going to rent a server. But this is really a deal breaker for me. The fact that people have an unfair advantage by getting better loot or something is hogwosh. Especially since most people jump from server to server and farm the "good loot" from barracks. So saying that locking a server is unfair in that regard makes absolutely no sense. Furthermore it would be nice to play in a server where I wouldnt have to worry about hackers. Guess what people, there are quite a few different hack communities exploiting this beautiful online gem already. I find it quite unfair that we cannot even have the choice to avoid this negative online element. It sucks that I can't play this privately with friends and family exclusively. It would bring out a whole new dimension of fun to this game to not have to worry about glitchers and hackers around every corner. We understand that the developers of this amazing mod have a vision of an open world; one that they are trying to maintain by enforcing this scenario via open server policy, but at what cost does this have to come? Having private online servers may change how cautious players may or may not be, but it could also provides a completely different type of world and environment which many of us more casual and mature gamers can appreciate.
