Friday Development Update - September 16, 2011

[louisv]

Come on, working on piece of complex software is not like digging a hole..."hey you, you aren't doing anything, grab a shovel"...

Everybody is a specialist, so a coder who works on making the visual system better is no good at 3d modeling and vice-versa.

Is that so hard to understand...

The "I want performance first, drop everything else..." attitude is, I think, coming from very young people.

And thanks for the update, this is going to be so hot !

Keep it civil please......


Everytime Luthier posts on here you lot come in and trash it arguing and bitching amongst yourselves and at the developers.

I'm cleaning up this thread, so lets keep it that way please.

Thanks.

Thank you all for testing the patch. We are continuing to work on the color scheme. Most of the commonly reported beta patch problems have been addressed, save for a few more complex newly introduced graphical glitches. We’re continuing to improve and expand the new sound.

The live version of the patch is tentatively scheduled for next Friday the 23rd. Please for the love of all that is holy note the word “tentatively” in the previous sentence.

This is good news, thanks for the update.

Having your FPS slow down to a slide show when you get behind smoke, explosions and dust etc online isn't fine.

The FM's are not fine, thought that bit was obvious..DM needs work but IMO atm isn't essential

I agree with you, actually in the beta the FPS are worse, hope they will fix in the final release or this will be basically a step back in my opinion.

The instrument panel of the 109 looks red from the outside.
I have that currently also, I hope this will be fixed.

Qick fix, dial down the eye candy (effects is a good start) and turn of dynamic lighting (for example). Just because YOU cant run it on the settings YOU want doesn't mean the performance isn't any good. Iv had good performance myself from day one, without turning much of mind u, and im starting to feel the need to ask u and other in your situation what u are doing wrong. I never deleted any catches, defraged folders and hoopty dooda etc.

Fm not fine? I wouldn't know, iv never flown a WWII bird but please fill me in on the obvious flaws.

Dm not fine? I wouldn't know, iv never shot at a WWII bird but please fill me in on the flaws.


Look, i really don't know what you and others are expecting performance wise from a game this "heavy"? Cant fly through smoke? Turn graphics down or buy a new pc, seriously, is that something new that came just because CloD was released and they are somehow responsible for it? Ever tried original Crysis or Metro maby? Have you posted the same demands on their forums? Sure, they can gain a frame or two here and there (witch btw is more than u can say for Crysis or Metro) but if you are expecting a 50% increase all of a sudden without sacrificing settings your pc cant handle or buy a new pc for that matter, well, then you are dreaming.

You might as well blame your car for getting you a speeding ticket.


Im having lag and freezes on 10 year old games, what makes CloD so special its now unacceptable and more importantly, what is Luthier and team suppose to do about it? CloD works better than ever for a lot of people and constantly spamming the forums of issues you (dont mean just you or just performance) are having like its a general problems wont fix it. Its NOT a general problem.

I'm not sure where you get that from what anyone is saying in this thread...

I believe the issue is that the game runs worse (for many of us) with the same graphics settings used before the patch.

Many people want new shiny stuff, but they don't want to "pay" for it, is that what u are saying?

Are we going to have this debate again once the dynamic weather is implemented?
