in relation to performance issues, what doe's fps mean, 8-60fps, 30 FPS ect.

thankx

frames per second, which in this case is probably about 5

Single player skirmish I can max all settings and get 50-60 fps, which is fine. It's only multiplayer I get the issues. I have graphics set approx half way and I'm struggling to get 25, typically dips to 12-15ish, and studders the entire time. My Core 2 Quad is at about 60% usage and seems to be using each core relatively well. My SLI 8800GTX's are at 40% and 5% with the newest 275 beta drivers (this is an improvement from previous drivers).

I'm not an FPS snob, I'd be happy with 30-35 FPS running smoothly, it's mostly the jagged play that bothers me.

Don't really matter what map i play sooner or later it be running 10-15fps and programs like afterburner report 0-30% gpu usage. And grphic settings don't matter it still plays like rubbish.. 1C should be ashamed of this game.

How ever the mouse never lags lol.

My Specs

Q9550
ASUS Maximus mobo
ATI 6970
8GB of ram

I buy GTX560ti GS today in hope to have litlle more FPS in AS skirmish and i just can say.....ahhahah, aahahha! Now i have 3-4 fps more then on 4870 GS...and thats **it! This beautiful game use some prehistoric aritmetics coz yes only ONE core is on full load, other 3 is on camping???? AND GPU load is about 30-40%

My PC is: Q9400, GTX560ti, 4gb ram, 4 tb WD, GB ep45-DS3 on WIN 7 32-bit ...and hell yea this is what i get for that ;( :evil::evil::evil::evil::-x:-x:!::!:

SHAME SHAME ON U!! DEVELOPERS!!!:evil:

Problem solved......GAME DELETED!!!:evil:

its a good solution..probably only one. but i like this game too much so im playing it even with 5fps drops on my HD 5850 Xtreme and 4Quad 3.GHZ. I can play Shogun 2 on ultra with stable framerate above 40fps with this Pc. SO WHERE IS THE F:::K PROBLEM??? Obviously someone from mow team is still working on patches. Why they cannot say us where is the problem or if they are working on it?

by the way: even after x patches game suffers same bugs. paratrupers in the edge of map disapearing after landing, bazzoka infantry stupid AI, sandboxes sometimes disapearing after small explosion, vehicles stucks pretty often and helps only manual control and my favourite: totally stupid supply distribution. who has time and nervs for that!

sooo great pc game and sooo many stupid bugs... i will pray for next patches. amen

You get 40+fps on Ultra with STW2, that's sounds pretty good. You have too remember that even with the great graphics you get in STW2, those units have a "unit" thinking. If all those troops had individual AI and/or individual inventory your fps would probably be lower. That screen shot shows just how much work the PC has. It would be so much easier on the PC if all those burning hulks, the craters, the weapons/equipment, and the collateral damage would disappear, but the game wouldn't be as cool. The PC keeps track of all that and still has to contend with the gameplay. This game has issues for sure, but IMO deliveries so much FUN.
If you have 15 to 30 minutes to spend tweaking saved game files you can give your Tanks and AT guns all the ammo they need and your troops with a lot more ammo to start. You and Frank Killaa have totally legit problems but this game is so tweakable there's no reason why you can't have a BLAST playing.

I have the same problem as the poster, but if I'm gonna delete the game, it's gonna be AFTER I get a REFUND. This is beginning to look like a rip off and I won't accept this !

Forget about the refund. European law doesn't foresee in this yet, and if the laws that are being dicussed are ever passed I think we'll be without games for quite a while since none of the games released nowadays meets any consumer rights that go for any product anywhere within the EU. And trust me if they will have to refund the costs on a none functioning product, to do so will bankrupt even the likes of EA.
