Managed to have a quick play, initial benchmark shows no improvement in fps (still ~20% down on a couple of patches ago) but it certainly appeared to have less stutter.

Wont have the opportunity to actually play much before next week sadly

People keep talking about the game and the hardware but forget one more critical component...windows.

I get and AVG of 32fps on the black death trak with 1600x1200 rez and settings high (except shadows)...now maybe im just lucky or it has todo with the fact that my win7 install is CLEAN! and in performance mode. When i say clean i mean there are 2 things installed CLOD and BC2.

i have a cheap/midrange computer so i have to make sure EVERYTHING is running at optimum officiantcy.

S!

I'd just really like the facility to roll back to previous patches for testing purposes, really regretting not backing up the install folder prior to patches

That looks like a searchlight operating during the day to me, I saw the same thing in my game.

Also REMOVE THE 10 YEAR OLD, AWFUL RESOLUTION, SCREEN SPACE EATING MAP BORDER, for the love of Jebus. We aren't playing a ten year old game anymore - why bring it back!?

I had the same feeling when I run with the HD 4850. But we are exceptions: people want to run with all sliders up with not so great hardware...

No, they just want a game that works, one that is well optimised - a game that they can play. If you seriously think that all the raging comes from people being somehow incapable of reducing their own graphic settings, you must be living in a dream world.

Had the same idea, but if the device is destroyed the beam should also disappear

Thanks Luthier.
How is BR.20M radio compass supposed to work ?
I put a radio beacon in a mission, adjusted the frequency of primary navigation receiver to that of the beacon, but nothing apparently happens... the radio compass indicator (assuming that I correctly identified it, it should be the leftmost on the top row just below the main gyro compass) is always pointing to the extreme left and does never move.

Thanks
Maraz

Another user with outdated VGA...

Let's talk clear: I had an OLD vga and you people don't saw me here crying like a baby about performance... I was able to fly really OK with a weak VGA with some tweaks and lowering settings. The game is "optimised" enough after the last patches to run OK in a HD 4850 512MB.

The "raging" are coming from stupid users. Simple as that:

- People made some investment in VGA one or two years ago and want to run new titles with great performance today!

No...

Oh do **** off. My GPU is perfectly fine for every other game I play, at native resolution and usually very high settings. I run CloD on high textures, 1900 res and shadows etc and I get around 30fps with a little stutter, except over large areas of buildings at low altitudes, which is perfectly fine for me so far. More optimisation would be nice, I'd quite like to use my second GPU, for example.

I'm well aware of what my GPU is and isn't capable of, and so are the vast majority of PC users. To assume that people who are complaining are 'stupid' is insulting to them (and to me, since you put me in the same boat) - so I say again - **** off and spout your high-and-mighty 'I'm better than you' bullshit somewhere else.
