In the Arma 2 demo version, I was amazed by the extremely short loading times, and great overall performance. In the full version, the mission loading times are still fast, but some other things are totally different, unfortunately.
I was lazy to read the whole BI forums thread, forgive me, BUT: I sure have noticed the unnormally high disk activity while playing. For me, what is causing this, seems to be the graphic textures loading, especially when zooming (e.g. switching binocs) it's very noticeble and sometimes quite annoying. It doesn't help, if I switch graphic settings to low, or anything...
Although Bohemia made a great game (again), I think they also screwed up something really bad... Â ???
I hope there's some other ways to deal with this, than expensive SSD (or maybe setting up RAID ?).
Have you experienced same problems with regular hard disks? Any known performance tweaks?
