    Might load this up in a minute and see what happens, if Tomb Raider has taught me anything it's that i'll need a bit of time to work on aiming with a mouse :smiley-laughing002: But i'll give it a go.

    First time I played multiplayer my guy got injured right at the start and could only move at snail's pace. Took me ages to work out how to heal myself, everyone on my team was miles away by the time I'd worked it out.

    :56: I would have thought it would help. How do you even run it at half power?

    When the CPU is turned up full it makes the GPU fan really loud and by turning it down halfway I was still getting 70>120fps without the noise.

    To heal yourself you scroll with the mouse wheel to "bandage yourself" or something like then then click the middle mouse button.

    Altis Life's a bit mad. I normally just buy a quad bike and try to run over a cop with it. I spawned at the rebel base once and ran to the nearest town to get money to pay for my rebel license but the ATM in the only town nearby wouldn't work for me. I've seen folk plant and set off bombs in it though, I'd love to get in on that action! :icon_mrgreen:

    According to canIrunthis.com I meet the minimum and recomended specs for this :smiley-laughing002:

    Hopefully they come up with a fix but im not holding my breath.

    Ah nice cheers, that will probably be helpful.

    Jumped in a random helicopter earlier and a group of guys ran at me like get out or I'll shoot you, so I got out and as they flew off I stole all their gear out the back of their heli :smiley-laughing002:
