Game is Unplayable

This is a screenshot at low settings (and poor FPS) from the wonder CloD, tell me... you rather play IL-2 1946 or this... you give it a name.




If you say I should expect under 30FPS for that garbage quality at my rig because IL-2 that looks 1000 times better runs OK on it... you loose me as debate partner.


P.S> This level of quality should had not existed in CloD... it's simply shameful. period!

I was trying to make the point that High settings appear to need a realy good PC, well GPU at least, after you said:

"P.S. C2D @3GHz, 4GB RAM GT460, playing only maxed up settings (I don't want tweaks that make the game look really bad for FPS... I get offended myself by this approach)."

I meant that if you want to insist on Max settings and not try say Medium I think you'll be disappointed. I don't expect that on mine although I hope MG will improve things for all of us. btw that low level of detail (I haven't tried it) was presumably to accommodate the older PCs (the basic spec AMD3800+ etc) so that more people could play it rather than be left out.

However, if you are not even getting 30fps from Low settings with that screenshot there's clearly something wrong because I have friends with similar CPU and older 512Mb GPUs that get better performance than that. How about the settings in your Nvidia control panel, are they demanding high AA / AF in Default mode (I don't think there's a profile for CoD yet). Just some thoughts.

You might want to look at the CPU and GPU loading to see if there's a clue there plus all the usual IL-2 stuff about background services etc.
