Arma 3 has had server issues since release. Partly the devs fault (they can't work on client and server optimisations obviously, last time I checked it couldn't use more than three cores :mellow
and partly because people choose to run their servers on Potatoes/poorly specced virtual servers. You pretty much need an entire machine for a 64 or even 32 person server imo. If you get a friend to host a game for a small bunch of people its fine unless their setup is really below par. Bigger servers really are awful though. The servers that run the converted arma 2 maps tend to be smoother.Arma 3 has had server issues since release.

Step 1. Use a high power Intel based system :lol:
I see you have an FX-4100. I used to have one of those and it brought me a solid 15-20fps in ArmA2
Yes please, the 20 euros i paid shouldn't be wasted like they usually are.

False.
Its actually pretty equal with CPUs nowadays
. the 9590= 4770k, 83xx= i5.Does anyone else find it suspicious that every Team has won once and that mostly by a big margin? That smells rigged to me. Possibly to keep everyone motivated to collect/trade/buy cards
Its because the team that came last were given a huge influx of users.
False.

I looked up a couple of benchmarks and there is pretty much no difference between the 8350, the 4670k and the 4770k.

Yeah I hit around 17 - 25fps in ArmA 2, until the S#!t hits the fan and it drops to around 10.

Good point I have noticed a slight increase in fps since the 14.4 Drivers but not by much, but just noticed your referring to ArmA 3 which is better configured compared to ArmA 2

Just picked up the game of the year edition of Dishonored with the latest round of discounts.
Brings my complete list to:
Driver: San Francisco
Condemned: Criminal Origins
Don't Starve
Psychonauts
Deus Ex (The Original)
Grey Matter
Far Cry 3
Contrast
The Stanley Parable
Papers, Please
Dishonored
I'm not sure if there's anything else I want as this backlog of mine is getting ridiculous now. But knowing from previous Steam sales, there's often a huge amount of games at ridiculous discounts at the very end of the sale.

Was thinking about pre-ordering Witcher 3 and Dragon Age Inquistion. Witcher 3 because i get a additional discount since i won the first two and Inquisition because it looks good and uses Mantle so worth a try i suppose.

Been playing Papers, Please. It's an amazing game, unlike anything I've ever played before. Despite the 2D pixelated graphics it's a lot of fun.
Sadly my family keeps dying in it though. I wanted to help the resistance movement overthrow the corrupt government, but I never got that far as a result.
