I'm picking up a GTX 1070 in a couple days, but here's my current rig: CPU: Core i5 4440 RAM: 8GB GPU: R9 280x 3GB HDD: Corsair 500GB SSD & 1TB WD Blue HDD Decided to go for a mini-itx for this build, never again... Also for interest, the "Yet Another Arma Benchmark" I get 28 FPS when set to Ultra video settings and standard view settings (res = 1080p).

Welcome to AWE

Good post, I'm also new and understand how you feel. The gameplay experience varies greatly between different teamleaders/ASLs, but you also have to make the distinction between their personality and their leadership ability. If you have a good teamleader you should have a good idea of whats going on, what kit you need, where your headed etc, you shouldn't have to ask too many questions. Unfortunately sometimes you may not agree with that person, however they make the decisions on the ground so you have to follow. If they fuck up, its on them, not you. If they are abusing their power or generally being a dick then you should report it. You posted some nice ideas for server changes, others have already commented and provided feedback so I won't go into them. I do find the lack of armour annoying sometimes, but that's how it goes, I play on EU1 as well to get my fix. I get the feeling that you see a bit of disorganisation within the server, I agree that sometimes it is like that, however when I'm on the ground in AOs 95% of people are concentrating and on lock-down. It generally does go to shit when ASL gets killed, you got no long range radio and no one knows what the fuck is going on, but that seems fairly realistic to me . I do understand the need to have a buddy system, coming on the server for the first time is fairly daunting as you gotta get used to all the mods/keybinds/rules and try figure out the missions etc, after a couple sessions this goes away, but I would suggest that new players get put with a "friendly" veteran that can show them the ropes.

Hello! I play as "Nic" on the EU3 server. Been great fun playing with you guys. Wanted to say hi on the forums and also thanks to Nicolai for getting me up to speed with the mods and giving advice. Also, Squad is free to play on steam for a few days and I guess that crosses over with Arma a bit, add me on steam if you feel like playing (search for Blaxzen, should be a picture of Mario in yellow glasses). Cheers.

im up for it.
