Are you talking the hard lag spikes from time to time, someone from that server suggested it was the downloading of custom skins, I have not yet tried to disable that option under network to see if that goes away. But I had the same experience... no CTDs.

I am talking online, and it doesnt matter if you dont have custom skins, your settings might be set to download others customs skins as they come into game using them.

Check your network settings...

bah... it's about 3 months that dev talk about "huge" improvement in fps... so that beta.

"double average FPS" are not words by whiners or trolls: B6 wrote that 5.5.2012 about the beta. Why? Are we kids to tell tales?

So? Is there a problem in communication? Is there a problem of player's comprehension?

It is not the first time. It is not professional. It is not whining.

Please, next time release patch without ridicolous opinion.

Using the ‘Black Death’ recorded track, my average frame rate went from 27fps before the patch to 46fps afterwards – not quite double, but close. What cpu do you have – is it a dual-core or a quad-core? luthier stated “If you have a dual core you will still see a tiny improvement, but it won't be as much as a quad or 8 core.” Have you tested your average frame rate before and after?

It would help if you posted your system spec (or put it in your signature, as previously requested) and what problems you are having – there are many here that will have a similar system that may be able to help.

You should also realise that this was not an officially released patch that was supposed to improve the game; it’s a ‘beta’ patch available to anyone willing to test and report bugs that may not have been found by the dev’s. If this doesn’t suit you, wait for the officially released version to become available.

Yes. The patch notes say "Most recommended-spec machine will see a roughly double average FPS".

Depends on particular PC hardware, drivers and weather a player switches off epilepsy filter and closes browser, ICQ, skype, real-time antivirus scanners, etc. while playing.

While it does depend somewhat on the above this isn't the fix in this case. I have a quad core 17 930, overclocked to 4.0Ghz and I have seen little in the way of improvements to my FPS. According to Blacksix post I should be getting around double, but in reality I have an increase of about 3 or 4 FPS. There is no reason why I shouldn't get what Blacksix has stated, I have the hardware and i'm pretty peed off about that statement to be honest. The game is the cause of this problem not the hardware. Graphics cards and ram all have limits to what they can and cannot do, but when the game has wide spread problems as this one obviously does, then it's the game.

You are apparently not the only one to experience this – in light of the supposed multi-threading support, do you run CloD with HT enabled? I had a huge improvement that I can only assume is due the improved threading that luthier stated that they were implementing in this patch. If not, it may be worth a try.

"Most" does not mean "everyone". Check out all the positive reports.

The purpose of this patch is not to make customers happy but to collect bugreports from unhappy customers as stated in the patch notes.

Please test, experiment with different settings, try different hardware and drivers, check programs running in the backgraound and report issues and solutions to the devs and community if you want. Or revert back to old version and wait till official patch. Maybe it will not work on your system if you do not provide feedback to alpha now though.

BTW. Most of complainers do not even care to include their system specs to their sigs. No wonder they have issues.

I disabled Custom Skins in the Network settings, but I still have the 0.5-1s stutters.
