Performence Drop - Dev Response

[Keny110]

Hey,
Just wondering what the devs response to the fps drop.
From what i see Many People are getting performnce drop including me and are unable to play such an awsome game but i havent seen much response from the devs and am wondering what they say towards it.

high end graphics cards able to run crysis on extreme graphics have been on the market for 3 years, they are very cheap now. I would assume that taking that into consideration they Upped the performance requirements because the only games who don't have cards that can handle it can certainly afford one now.

you can get a 9800GT or some crap for around 180 bucks or cheaper.

Tigerdirect and Newegg are where you find some of the best deals btw

We know there are performance issues, we need more conclusive data to determine if its just a map by map basis or server side or something extra straining clients.

We will be closely monitoring the situation, and will report back when we have some conclusive results.

For now, we know many players are playing so its not a game breaking thing, but we are aware for some players some maps are completely unplayable.

So in other words, dont worry, this stuff happens, it will get fixed, but for now we have to see how it goes since this is essentially stress testing. Please dont ask why we didnt do a stress test this time, it was beyond our control.

Well, I'm going to place an order on some new parts for my machine, that's for sure.

if the devs arn't responding its because they don't know and if thye don't know they're working on it and if its not the above thne it just means they're all asleep after staying up all week preparing 0.9

AFAIK, it may be Client-side. I've noticed that the problems will only occur on select maps, while others may be perfect. My personal belief is that it may be the insurgency maps exclusively.

Overall, great patch.

i am preparing a pc im making but untill i get a job (im 14) i dont have much money

What about constant CTDs.

Guaranteed during next map load and usually twice per map itself.

Major stability fail.


Didn't have these probs with 0.87. Running XP SP3 with 35 background processes, 3.5GB ram, i5 750 2.66GHz, Sapphire HD 5770.

LAG on Operation Dragonfly

I haven't played much more, and the lag isn't TOO bad, just VERY annoying.
