A tool that could help evaluate BOB COD objectively
It would be interesting if we had some realistic ideas of how the BOB COD is being improved with some consistent basis of performance.
The WIN 7 utility included in Control Panel/All Control Panel Items/Peformance Information and Tools might be a good place to start. All you have to do is click on Performance Information and Tools in the control panel to get a BaseScore with meaningful subscores. If you capture that screen and then make a brief explanation of your evaluation of BOB COD performance in a posting. That might corroborate an ever improving BOB COD as related to various computer systems. There are better tools, but these tools are a pretty good benchmark that is very accessible to Win7 users. This posting has more information on the win7 tool: http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showthread.php?t=24130 Last edited by nearmiss; 07-02-2011 at 12:19 PM. |

I guess we would have to have maybe three different graphic setups for each tester to benchmark on.
Say one with all max graphics, one with all low graphics and one with medium/high graphics (the average user). That, posted together with system specs, win7 rating and some FPS max/min/avg readings and of course the developers taking the time to look through the reports may give us some better results in the future |

Repost from the other thread:
Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5 CPU 750 @ 2.67GHz |7.5 Memory 4.00 GB |7.7 Graphics ATI Radeon HD 5700 Series |6.9 Gaming Graphics 2811 MB Total available graphics memory |6.9 HD: 5.9 Overall (by lowest) 5.9. CloD Performance: Most settings medium, medium textures (could use high before last retail patch), 2x AA, true fullscreen @ 1920 x 1200, shadows & roads on, grass off, vsync on, SSAO & Ep filter off. Without using Radeon Pro, fps is in the 10-20s over land with massive stuttering. With Radeon Pro, fps becomes a slightly more stable 25ish, most of the stutter has gone. 'Bubble' pop-in regardless of whether I use Radeon or not. Crossfire only works well with Radeon Pro and STILL has a massive performance degradation over time, to the extent that if you spend half an hour 'testing' different settings, it'll be a slideshow by the time you finish, making actual testing impossible.

dont even think to use that Win gimmic, all for a benchmark that is easy to use, free and accurate but not that one |

Sisoft Sandra is free and actually works; perhaps it might be a better tool?

This scores in Win 7 are useless. What we need is a benchmark padronized with INSIDE VIEW of the most demanding aircarft - regards speed and/or cockpit complexity - in a lot of stressfull situations.
With the results of this benchmark of PLAYABILITY, we can post our hardware and do comparsions, with results thats mean something. With actual benchmark, the stutterfest "The Black Death", with lots of changes in views, everybody will think thay CloD runs like crap even in high end rigs. And simply will not believe in any testimonial that say the opposite. I know by experience... Last edited by LoBiSoMeM; 07-01-2011 at 07:25 PM. |

Why don't you lot try doing something productive, like posting your results, rather than whine about it? Nearmiss is clearly aware (see quote) that there are other tools, but this is one nearly everyone has access to and doesn't require an extra program. |

As long as everyone has access to it makes it OK? It's not even close to being accepted as a benchmark, you start using that and your end up in a worse situation than we have now |

We're not allowed to swear on this forum, so I'll leave you to guess what I'm thinking. Considering the great majority of modern PCs run Win7, a benchmark tool that is included, that doesn't require any extra software would at least give us a general indication of performance across a wide range of common system configs, and is far more likely to be used by the average forum reader as it doesn't require any extra effort. I don't think anyone is expecting it to be perfect, but it's a start.
All I see is the OP trying to be helpful - if that's a problem for you, perhaps you should consider not acting like a spoiled child and grow up - or GTFO and leave this thread to people who actually want to help. There seems to be a regular retard-squad on this forum who believe that everything is Steam's fault; that anything later than Win XP isn't worth having, that refuse to use anything other than hyperlobby and complain at every effort to solve problems and frankly I'm sick and tired of it. If you want to stick with decade old rubbish that's your bag, but don't inflict it on the rest of us, or whine when you don't get your way. Last edited by Orpheus; 07-01-2011 at 09:58 PM. |
