Pathetic performance

[Johno1942]

I am hoping something went wrong with the distribution, as performance for me is also bad.

My CE edition unlocked yesterday evening in Australia and I gave the game a quick run last night after getting home from a meeting.

My system specs are as follows:
i7 clocket at 3331 Mhz
ATI Radeon HD 5870
RAM: 6142 Mb
Windows 7 64 bit, running off a SSD

Running at 1920x1200 resolution I was getting only about 20fps with the graphics turned down.

This morning the option came to turn off the eip-filter, and unfortunately I have had no significant increase in frame rate.

Neither the graphics card nor the CPU is heavily loaded during flight. There appeared to be only one CPU being loaded by the game as the other 4 only had slight loads which I would have accounted for the system monitor and fraps.

I have not yet turned off head shake as that was turned on in my settings.

In comparison I ran up my copy of wings of prey. I run that at 2560x1600 with detail on max. Flying around the south of England (with similar number of trees/buildings (and I will say more realistic looking trees/buildings) I am able to achieve over 60fps on the same rig.

There appears to be a bottleneck somewhere that is preventing the software from utilising the hardware available.

I have just tried IL2 COD. The only thing I have to say it seems like an Alpha version instead of the release version. Horribly poor performance even in online maps which is incredible to me given the small size of the online maps.

I think I'll keep an eye on the coming patches and see if performance improves but right now I have to say goodbye to be able to even play online maps.

Stuttering and low frame rate. I don't think it's a ram problem but the way buildings and trees are shown. Just my guess.

My Specs

CPU QuadCore 2 2.50
GPU ATI 5770 1GB
RAM 4GB
Win 7 64 bits.

People need to stop making idiotic crysis comparisons - especially since cryengine 3 is cut down in a large variety of ways and polished to run super smooth.

crysis 3 = WOP
Crysis 2 = COD

More like
Crysis 1 == Cod,
Crysis 2 == WOP if anything

Basically with almost everything turned to max except for AA 4X and building density (not at unlimited) I've got some major performance issues. Now I now that you're going to want to say that my computer is unable to handle it but that may not be the truth. My setting is as following: I7 930, nVIDIA 470GTX and 6Gb of RAM.

Basically I'm getting about 1/3 FPS (yes 0,33...). I literally counted the numbers the game refreshed itself in 1 minute. Now the problem is that my GPU's usage is really low (about 5%). I took it from quite a short timescope but it's all the time like this when trying to play IL-2 COD. Nothing besides Skype, MSI Afterburner (only to monitor GPU usage) and Steam naturally were running in the background.

Ubisoft and 1CPublishing I'm afraid this is absolutly pathetic and definitly the worst performing game I've ever bought (bought it from Justflight). Crysis 2 runs happily at max settings...

You have no reason to expect to be able to run COD at max settings with your rig, except for your own ego. COD is a flight simulator, not a FPS. Try about medium settings, the game will still look fantastic, and it should run pretty well once they get the initial bugs stomped.

Wasted cores, a GPU that is barely being touched. It looks like we have to wait for Cliffs of Dover to catch up to the hardware.
