Lowest I have been able to get it is 1.3MB @ 720
and 1.8 @ 1080
I think we should take the 0.5MB hit and go with 1080p personally.

Woot!
This is awesome. Really dig the integration with the forums.
You have Hunter to thank for that. It was initially only for squad XML but I decided to use it for the access permissions so we have everything in one place. Also makes it easier on us because members can add themselves.
So everyone make sure you setup your profile!

Within the next couple of days, the Sparta access list will be going into effect.
What this list does exactly, is prohibit people that are not registered on our forums and active on teamspeak from operating the more powerful vehicles such as artillery and combat aircraft.
Now, if you are reading this, you are most likely a forum member. So all you will need to do is add your ArmA 3 Profile ID to your Sparta forum profile. You can do this by clicking your name in the top-right of the screen, clicking My Profile, and then click Edit Profile. You need to fill out your ArmA 3 in-game name and your ArmA 3 profile id in the bottom of your forum profile, and click Save.
To find your Arma 3 profile id, launch ArmA 3, click Options, click Profile, click Edit, and copy (highlight the text and press left control + c) the ~17 character long ID from the profile field and paste it into your forum profile.
Once this is done, you will automatically be given vehicle permissions once the access list goes live. If you do not do so, you may find yourself unable to enter anything other than light ground transport vehicles. So keep that in mind.
This server-side addon will also allow anyone registered on the forums to run any mod they desire without having to get us to add it to the server first: another reason to add your profile ID to the forums if you are one of the countless people enjoying their myriad of client-side mods.
A third benefit is that should you accidentally teamkill someone (or someones, or 30 someones if you are flying), you will not be automatically kicked. This system will be put in place to help keep some of the more sinister public players in check and thus will give members a free pass--though should members intentionally TK, they will be dealt with by an admin.
Also, if you are a Spartiate or above, doing this will add you to the Squad XML file so that you can get the Sparta tag/emblem in-game.
So, just a heads up. Be sure to save your ArmA profile information in the forum so you will be ready when the access list goes live..

Here it is updated. Volume reduced and without such a slamming intro. That sound at :04 is an air raid siren, I also smoothed it out and turned it down. New file attached. Getting OGV shortly.
Much better in my opinion
-
Looks fantastic man, great work.
One critique: We may want to turn the volume down just a bit. Might scare some peeps when they join with full volume and get blasted by the first few seconds of audio.
-
LEGENDARY! Seriously ... you want a challenge, set it to Legendary and then reset battle difficulty to Hard. Nothing comes easy, but its satisfying as hell when you gain ground.
Yes, I know. Next campaign. I want to actually finish a campaign, unlike you bastards who have started like 20 campaigns so far.
-
Finally conquered the Arabian peninsula. Had to break some ties with nations I've been at peace with for a long time to do it too. I will leave Qirdi alone in Jerusalem though, as he is allied to me.
Now it is time for my army to sail to Iberia, and then I will push northward into France.
-
How about a haiku?
I sit in my tent
waiting, waiting waiting
On my turn to finish
Did you get Rome 2 Durka?
After about 180 turns, the end turn cycle takes foreeeeever.
-
Added campaign timeline to map along with short description of events.
-
Jesus MH6! I captured one island, you have most of the southern map done.
What's funny is that almost all of that was from yesterday. Tuesday night I only had Sicily, Knossos, Salamis, Side, and Sparta. Once I started down the African coastline, I started picking up speed, conquering Garamantia and Egypt. Then I hit Antioch and the Seleucid War began. During that war, city after city fell to Spartan rule with alarming speed. Because of the close proximity of cities, I was able to push north and east very quickly. I will be posting a timeline with major battles/wars and the general path of my expansion soon. 'Cause I'm bored.

wallet will soon have sad face
My GTX 580 was struggling just a little bit at the start of the level. Will probably have to upgrade as well for the full game.

I only get to see three out of my six ships? Boooo.
-
That is some amazing scenery. Must be nice to see that on a ride. Looks like it was a perfect day for riding too.

sometimes u can put in 4 pin in a 3 pin connector
then u have to go by mobo adjustment (RPM)
or i use something like speed fan (if u have newer mobo )
A 4-pin Molex and a 3-pin fan connector are two vastly different things.
Just find a free Molex connector on your PSU and daisychain your fans on it. You can have quite a few fans on Molex, I think I had 3 on one at one point.

New info concerning the next update has been released.
http://steamcommunity.com/app/218620/discussions/0/864976837888976089/
Summary:
- Filters added to Crime.net (choose your difficulty!)
- ECM Jammers can now open ATMs and block pagers.
- ECM Feedback buffed, which is good because it is currently worthless.
- Armor piercing rounds to buff rifle users.
- Trading currently in the works.
- Some other (yet to be announced) changes that will blow our minds apparently.
I can't wait. Ghost will be even more amazing now.
-
Surprised MH6 has not yet slobbered all over this thread...
My PC was out of commission yesterday because I was draining the water cooling loop and doing some maintenance.
That said...
I'll be playing the hell out of this (at least until Sept. 17 where I have to split my time between this and GTA V).
Hopefully some of us can get together and play online co-op. In both Rome and GTA.

can u reset skill points ingame?
the whole game was based on heat ^
one of the best scenes ever
Yeah I know the game was heavily influenced by Heat. Just funny to continually find references. Such as the drill or the above skill.
You can reset points in-game for a 50% refund in cash. So it's easier on your wallet to plan what you want to do beforehand.
-
This is my planned build. It gives me some good skills for stealth and quite a few amazing combat skills.
http://www.pd2skills.info/profile/mastermind-enforcer-13/
You can use the skill calculator by going here: http://www.pd2skills.info/
You can also set your current level/cash in the top right if you want to mess with your current build.
Just want to get an idea of what everyone will be running. Might make grouping easier in the future.
P.S.- Anyone else notice that there is a Mastermind skill named after Val Kilmer from the movie Heat? Second row, last column in Mastermind tree.
Here's the scene:

Found this wonderful overview to help you out and increase your success rate.
If you had played more during beta you would know all that.
P.S.- Never shoot a camera. Even with a silenced weapon. It is bugged. Always melee it.

BETA UPDATE #2 (It will hit within a couple of hours)
Hi guys!
Alright Heisters, time for BETA UPDATE 2 (YES it will reset you - this is needed as truck loads of anti cheats and balancing is coming in)
First off - huge thanks to the community and the thousands of players contributing to these fixes. We have had the full team on this and it has been real usefull. Not only taking your feedback but also checking statistics and behaviors. What we have here is a real good update and much thanks to you.
Oh... Electric Center is now Infamous for real
We have done a lot of tweaks to the balancing of the game. Made it more sane on single and two player levels while bumping up the tempo on 3-4 player sessions.
Players with Laptops and old ATI cards will be happy to know your mouselag is mainly due to overheating and mismatch between GPU and CPU loads - we have added a controller in the advanced video options for that. Also we have previously posted about setting your AMD catalyst drivers correctly as well.
Also notable is that we added a Steam Gamehub short cut in the main menu and a direct link from us by the way of scrolling notes to all who are not on forums in the down left corner of the main menu.
Thanks to you guys the game is now MORE awesome >) - rest assured though we keep working to perfect it, as always.
Bo

-
Drank a couple of Red Bulls... Thanks all!
and at last if you crash:
If you get a crash please send us your crashdump .mpdp file from your Steamapps/common/PAYDAY 2 Beta folder. We can read where the crash happened and kill it that way. Send it to almir@overkillsoftware.com and he will get back to you in due time.
If you cannot get your BETA to start then follow these instuctions (this works in 95% of the cases so try it even if you think you did right the first time):
-
Try verifying the integrity of the game cache: 1a) Go open up your Steam client program and go to the "LIBRARY" section 1b) Right-click Payday in the list of games to the left - a drop-down menu will appear 1c) Click the menu option "Properties" at the very bottom of the drop-down menu - a dialog box will appear 1d) Click the "LOCAL FILES" tab in the upper part of the dialog box 1e) Click the third button that reads "VERIFY INTEGRITY OF GAME CACHE..."
-
Make sure you don't have an anti virus program that runs in sleep mode and has Payday on its "malicious software" list - it might be blocking the exe when it's trying to run.
-
If none of that works, uninstall, redownload and reinstall the game. 3a) When you uninstall, please be sure to manually delete all the files that are left in your PAYDAY 2 Beta folder. Steam doesn't automatically delete these files and they can sometimes cause problems. These files are usually located in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\PAYDAY 2 Beta
-
If that doesn't work, get back to Almir at almir@overkillsoftware.com and we will look into it further.
Please note that the 3rd step needs to be done properly! Steam can fool you that the game has installed by showing a shortcut on your desktop before the game has finished installing. If you start the game before the installation or download is complete the process will stop and the install will be corrupt!
If the installation doesn't work, it has to do with Steam. There's nothing wrong with the game itself that makes it unable to start. The game can crash for numerous reasons - PhysX can be out of date, wrong GFX drivers, corrupt install - but the game itself is OK.
We will continue investigating all crashes that are reported.
Please continue your hard work and have fun!
OVERKILL

I like the 05 music as well. Also, the 1080p versions look fantastic.
