1. If you have multi core cpu such as i7 etc.... Set affinity for the process "mow_assault_squad.exe" to use only 1 core, for example if you have 4 cores set to use only core 0. This prevents from thread jumping between cores and results in steady performance. This game doesnt use multi core anyways. This will give big boost in terms of steady performance vs shuttering and game freezing a bit every now and then.
2. If you use anti aliasing implemention inside game, and you have higher end graphics card, I recommend turning off anti aliasing in game and trying out using your graphics card driver anti aliasing override, force such anti aliasing as multi sample or super sampling etc....

In terms of
single player the solution is
in-game ANTI-ALIASING !
Try what I did.
1. in-game : turn every detail to low/off
2. go to NVidia control panel > Manage 3D settings > Program settings > set to MoW:AS
3. SET > AA filter ; AA mode to Override... ; AA settings ; AA Transparency ; you fiddle with the rest
4. Go to game start see how the game performs in heavy battle. Then make yourself a SAVE. If you have enough FPS try turning things ON step-by-step.
Water effects + Shadows = FPS KILL .... the rest is OK.
When I set everything maxed out. The game goes around 20-50FPS depending on view. When zooming from above it reaches 100FPS. But when I look into
GPU Tweak the GPU usage is never above 60%. So guess what ..... And the game still goes at 20-30 FPS !
to Multiplayer !!!
With all mentioned above. LAN-coop-skirmish-1.USA(overlord) 2 players = UNPLAYABLE = 10 to 20 FPS.
Now PC specs

Great game ! Huge dissapointment in game-engine-performance. We're going back to R.U.S.E. Sry guys...
EDIT : We both have
patch ver. 2.00... (cca 1GB)
EDIT : Any suggestion to try out ?
