What is the setup of anyone who is able to run the game with no stutters? Just make a Crimea quick battle and fly around the coast and I'll get these periodic little "ticks". The higher the water # the more consistent they appear.
I know the game will hitch once and a while like all games do, texture buffering and such things but this is definitly not just that because it is just related to the water and the shaders.
It would be just awesome to find a real fix!
