Am i the only one who experiences this?

When i play arma 2, and i use a scope of any kind to look at the enemy in the distance.  They appear sunk into the ground up to their knees about.  and when they die, they fall into the ground and disappear. If i approach them then i can see the body on the ground normally. Its only at long distances the enemy sinks into the ground. Is this normal? it makes sniping missions really stupid. Any distance more than 300-400 meters and the enemies legs sink into the ground.

It's a feature, called the "grass layer". It simulates grass at a distance without actually rendering it to remain performance friendly. Largely a MP-specific feature. Disable grass and you'll notice it disappears.

ok.. but then there wont be any grass...  my computer is powerfull, how can i make it render grass for a kilometer without any sinking?

Your computer isn't that powerful.

It's not possible to change it without serious modding, and even then it might not work.

not powerful?! I think you owe "the beast" an apology.  this baby is packing quad cores, 6GB of RAM an nvidea 295 and a 160GB SSD...    and im hoping to upgrade her to an Nvidea 400.  If my damn girlfriend would stop taking chunks of my pay for shopping.  But someday. yes someday.....
