Hello guys,
Finally after a while I got the chance to play and test the new patch. and below are my views and issues:
First of all, my rig:
* intel i7 920 processor
* 3gb RAM
* ATI 4890 asus 1gb
* Windows 7 32bit
About the patch.
THE GOOD
Finally I can say I can fly over London with minor stuttering, however something's still there, which might be due to my video memory, but oh well, I was even able to make 3 loops going inside london bridge without crashing due to lag or stutters.
And so far.... that's it, that's the good from my limited testing time, which I consider to be VERY good.
THE BAD
* Again, every time I go into the plane edit screen or other edit & customization interface I get RELIGIOUSLY a crash to desktop, so in this case, stability went the wrong way for me.
* Can't play multiplayer at all, again, CTD as soon as the map screen opens to select your army.
* I appreciate the effort put into improving the UI, and the options in quick mission editor... but somehow I feel just as limited as before, we just can edit some new missions but playing with the numbers is still VERY limited to changing already existing stuff. Also, not sure why, I can't select some plane types in some quick missions, flyable planes like the wellington are non-selectable for me in bombing missions... ??? QMB shouldn't be capped or limited, the point of having it it's to experiment with all the options and content, even in the most drastic ways. We are lacking the ability to create a different scenario than the pre-established ones. Only available via full mission editor.
And for now in my case that's it... hopefully some of this issues will be sorted within a short time, specially everything related to the crash to desktop things on customization screens which in my case it's killing the whole thing.
Thank you all!
Cya later
