New Discovery…this game is glorious!

most of the people that say this game is "Glorious" have what i would regard as Uber/High end machines.
I can assure you, for people with lower end machines it is most certainly not glorious. My friend who has a 3.7 Ghz dual core CPU cannot run the game at all due to a whopping high of 6 FPS.

I hope (& he does) that this latest patch will bring the game up to speed with its required specs so everyone who has bought it can actually play it.

I know it's a dangerously revolutionary thought, but maybe an uber machine is needed to run this game on high/highest settings? I'd suggest your friend lower his to get better fps. Insane, I know, but it just might work...

There's a surprising amount of FPS gain if you go into CCC and turn everything off apart from 2x AA.
Turn off all 'allow application to decide' settings, and turn off AA in the game.
Mine's an i7 860 @ 2.8ghz, 6 gig ram and a 5770, so not 'uber'. I now get 20-25fps on Very High graphic settings, once I'm off the ground and away from all the grass!

My brother has a Core2 Duo E6850 @ 3.5ghz, 4 gig ram and a 4670, and gets 15fps over the sea on medium settings. Not good, but playable (just). His processor is only running at 30% capacity with the game running.
Give it a bit of time and a few patches and we'll all be raving about it.

The OP is correct, the game is absolutely Glorious.

Right click on CCC icon and go through each of the 3D settings there is the easiest.
I'm at work now and can't remember exactly how many there are.

I don't remember seeing override or enhance when accessed this way, but you may have a different version.
Mine's the latest version downloaded from steam last week.

Well most new games of the flight sim genre require a high end PC for the maximum settings, I have an I7 920 with a 8800gt 512k and 3gb ram running winxp and although I need ground details on low I can run the plane and damage settings on high and it runs at about 25 - 30 fps...will be upgrading soon though.

No warships, one merchant ship, mannequins for crew members, bad voice acting and an inadequate single player experience. The discerning customer would say it has potential, but has a long, long way to go yet.

I have to agree with you there. But also have to say that I've experienced easily the best dogfights of my virtual pilot career with CloD. When the core is fantastic, I trust that more content will come soon and for me it's just icing to the cake that already tastes delicious.

It already looks gorgeous, flies great, the dogfights are intense and mastering full real requires real skills. Now just finetune the performance, add a bit of more content, high quality community sound mod and it'll be epic!

Would have been interesting to see the bug tracker and the QA meetings when they handed out the golden copy.

Yes it is. I was very disappointed during the first week but now I am really enjoying it.
