Cryostasis uses only one CPU core

This explains the performance issues most gamers are having. Cryostasis (as you can see here) uses only one CPU core. I'm sure the devs already know that (and if they don't... well... now they do know

) so hopefully they will fix it

Thats true, ive also noticed it.

Use "CPU Control"
A simple tool allow you full control over your cpu cores usages.

0 - not used core for that application
1 - used core for that application

example:
1111 - this application use 4 cores
0011 - this application use 2 out of 4 cores
and so on...

enjoy

The game doesn't support multicores so you don't get any performance boost at all by enabling 2 or 4 CPUs (you are just wasting one CPU which isn't doing anything as it doesn't have any data to process). Already tried that after all and still the CPU usage is around 30-50% with my Core2Duo. It needs to be patched to take advantage of the multicores

Yes... i did mention this too with my core2quad.

It seams its engine issue which can't take advantage of the multiple core systems.
WE NEED PATCH!

Υeah i have atlon x2 4400 and it doesnt use more than 50%!! Now i understanf why it is so slow!!

Please someone fix it!

Im afraid no patch will be able to make it "multi core optimized", Cryostasis is very similar to STALKER Clear Sky in this aspect, just a new engine could make this happen.

u guys really have performance problems?
i use e6600 overclocked to 3ghz with an 8800gts 640 mb and i can play it with everything max @ 1152 * 864 with ~26 fps.
i'm quite happy it runs that well.
