Great comment for the community of ArmA 3

Next time, stay away from people who try to improve a product that we like

how are you improving a product? you say that when there is shit on the screen you get low FPS, that's not improving the product, that's complaining that something runs slow when it shoud go slow.

the only useful thing i can tell you is that if you use ATI turn AA and such off.

Only the smoke kills the FPS

Tested on a empty map with 0 units on it,a single smoke grenade, FPS goes to 18-20 from 60

Its not a graphic card problem, its a several optimization problem

If u only can tell me this, dont tell nothing and learn to read the info before open the mouth.

Can't reproduce.
Might be an issue to older/weaker GPUs, don't notice any fps drops with a gtx 770.
