But it seems to me that CloD is an entirely different kettle of fish. Nothing else tries to incorporate the depth of working details, FMs and DMs plus multiplayer and all covering vast areas of very detailed maps. Even if the code was fully optimised, which quite clearly it isn't yet, then it would still put a strain on any computer system. The question is - Why is there such a mixed bag of good and bad experiences of people running similar spec systems or even a lower spec system running it better a higher spec one? And the answere to that must lie in the hardware, computer software or the configuration because everyone is running exactly the same code.
I think the answer really lies with one's interpretation of "running" or "playability". After viewing many videos online I would not be happy with the current "Runs fine on my system" statement from my point of view, but like they say " what ever floats your boat ".
