[sgt fury]

Just like the first TOW when you are under a massive air and ground attack you have to lie back and wait until its all over before you can play again, my pc specs are pentium quad 2.4 gig 3500 gig RAM nvidia 250gts,are there any particular game settings to avoid this,i tried medium no bodies low water but no improvement during the russian air and tank counter attack.further what is the recommended specs hardware to run the game smouthly when under extreme conditions with high settings?i did an FPS test with everything set at low and minimum and same problem,the fps goes down to 1 and freezes the game entirely when the big counter attack takes place.what is everyone else doing to avoid this problem ??
