ground lag stuttering(beta patch)

[Buchon]

You mean Intel Hyper Threading ?

Yep, can be a problem, Hyper Threaded cores are not a physical core so they are slowest than a physical one (in short).

But my guess in all this is that its the know issue of the grass and trees code not being optimized yet :

The patch in his current state brings smooth play in high and medium altitude, but there still hick-ups at low altitude due to the not fully optimized grass and trees yet.

This is what I am holding out for! I am praying that once the grass, trees and clouds are optimized then we will have a game. The only thing that worries me is if it is only going to be a matter of days to fix these things like BS stated, then why did they release the pach? Why not just wait if they will bring vast improvements to the FPS?

They released this for search and crush the CTD issue for once and all before step forward, that's the whole purpose of the Alpha test.

Send your crash files guys ...

Still a bit daft to release a patch that was about doubling FPS when you know damn well it's going to stutter on the ground and around clouds that have not been optimized. Setting yourself up for a barrage of complaints when you do things like if you ask me.. Which is why I remain skeptical about the next patch and what it will achieve. I just went and had a go at bomber intercept and my FPS through the clouds were 11 FPS lol. Made me feel like a tortoise with arthritis it was that slow.
