Default Pathetic performance

Hi!

Firstly let me congratulate the team on releasing IL-2 that I have been waiting for ages. As I the devs seem only to be active on this forum I opted for this before UBI's forums.

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...

Regards

Magnus

You may want to read some post before taking a dump on 1C.

You have some tweeking to do before you can get it to perform at a confortable level of performance.

Only a few beleived that we would have the hardware to run it with everything maxed out right out the box. These few were obviously dreaming.

Check this forum for Conf.ini setup and in game settings. It will get better.

Also have you turned of the terrible epi filter? If not do so...

Yeah there is something really wrong, i have seen videos where 1-2 plane fly over a water, there is about 20fps, and those computers was not old. There is not even land in horizon, why only 20fps over water, really weird...

To be fair Cryengine 3 is tremendously well coded and optimized.
It both looks and performs better then its own predecessor.

Hi!
Firstly as far as I'm aware it can't be turned off in the Ubisoft version. Secondly my GPU is THROTTLING DOWN whereas I expect it to be at about 100%. Core and shader clock have both gone down from stock and temperatures are normal.
Thanks for trying to help though.

Yea, but I thought and still believe that Oleg & CO can do far better than where Il-2 COD is at right now. If this game engine is to last for as long as they plan...

Uh, you've done something seriously wrong if you're getting 0.33 FPS.

There are performance issues, but certainly not that bad.

Please check your drivers and PC for any issues, and I'm also unsure whether JustFlight has used their wrapper for CoD, but that may be a source of problems as well.

Agreed.
Just mentioned it because most people automaticaly think "Crysis=ultimate torture test".

In fact I'm almost certain that Crysis 2 renders a manyfold of both geometry and textures more fluidly then CloD does at the moment.
But Crytek is the biggest studio in Europe, Maddox games is a niche developer.
I hope that pure dedication will make up for numbers to our benefit.

Well newest official GPU drivers are installed and no other game show any faults. The game seems to be installed right though. Thanks to all for their help though.

The only game I have this stupid CPU-GPU low-usage problem is Arma2 Arrowhead. In A2 the higher I am overclocking the lower the gpu usage. Crazy...

True, +1
Now you can add CloD to your list, for now...
