Any updates on getting this fixed or a official patch for the US version? After about 6 minutes of game play it bogs down and task manager show its already up to 756,432k. :(

I think that's not a "memory leak". That is just the normal size. 1GB is the official requirement, but you would probably be better off with 2GB. But my guess is there might be other reasons it's slow. Certainly I've had some performance issues that seem to have nothing to do with memory.

I have 4gb of ram in my system and just tested out 5 other games and none of them jumped above 150,000k. I tired the below games,

Battlefield 2
Call of duty 4
mercenaries 2
Clear sky
Crysis Warhead

When you guys are playing and notice it slowing down alt-tab out and check task manager and let me know if it's just me.

As I said, I get slowdown even though I have plenty of memory. Since you have 4 GB of RAM (of which Windows can probably only access 3 GB), and the program is using less than 1 GB, isn't it obvious that your slowdown is caused by something other than a "memory leak"?

I experienced minor "lag spikes" during running around the world map here and there. It might be memory leaks, It might not (I didn't check how much the game consumed tbh).

But DaviddesJ, if *any* game uses more then 1GB ram, there's usually something wrong.

I was getting slow down in battles. I fixed this with a tip I read on this forum about disabling antiscopic filtering.

I don't agree with that, it just depends on how it was designed and what the system requirements are, but, in any case, what he reported (and what I have seen) is less than 1 GB.
