Seriously I think this translates into "this is going to be a lot more complex and time consuming than we expected....so dont call us..we will call you"....safe to say..shelve the game for 6 months..and revisit the issue...if anyone REALLY thought they were going to optomize and redo the entire graphics engine in a month..or even two..they been smoking something funny. If they couldn't with ALL that time get it right the first time..what leads one (us) to believe a new polished engine was going to suddenly appear in no time... ? Were it that simple..it would have been done right the first time...so. seriously to all those people who are complaining "please make the stuka radiators open faster" and "ohhh I cant seem to turn my gun turret at the correct speed" I think those issues are a long time off from being dealt with..first thing is get the game running well enough for those of us whose systems..LIKE MINE...are way above what is required OR recommended for the game. I didnt pay 50 dollars to buy a game that would play beautifully on a machine I have to spend 5k for or that is 5 years from being graphically available. Trusted IL to deliver a good product like their other wares....but ignored my gut which said "read the forums and see what people are saying"....which I need to do in the future..before I pay 50 for a game that is now selling for 12 and requires me to update my 570 geforce that should run the game FINE and spend 600-800 for ANOTHER card with more ram to get decent FPS? That's just nonsense. Take a look at my pc specs below and tell me "where I went wrong" in building this rig? HAD the game said 'requires a minimum of 2gigs of vram' then at least I could have planned accordingly..however the specs set on the box and advertising for this game were just a fantasy..I've got more than enough processing/ram/video power that this game should run WELL on HIGH settings..yet..it doesn't..Im tired of ranting.but Im also tired of developers pushing half finished products out the door which they charge full price for and know that it still requires "major work" and they will fix it up down the road after the cash has rolled in..and the fact that some guy has gotten quad sli or some such silly thing to run the game well is also ridiculous...how many decent graphics card does one need to have this sim work properly?
??
Unproductive ranting! Imo.

Its old news but I guess anyone slapped in the face with our disappointment of CoD as released has the right to say so once. Mind you his rig should run it fine at High settings with Forest, SSAO and Grass off and buildings at Medium (same card as mine) although I'm only running 1680x1050.

Anyway philip.ed, I'm thinking more along the lines of "two months, be sure".

Ranting is never productive...however...do you have any other solutions or opinions as to why the game runs poorly on machines exceeding sys requirements, or do you just like to flame? Unproductive comment on your part!Now..if you'd like to Western union me 700 US that WOULD be something productive on your part which might improve game performance, however, since you have no other "constructive" help to offer..my "unproductive" ranting is nor more or less productive or unproductive than your comments...so each his own.

Thumbs up

Could you post in the tech help section with the issues you are having please ingsoc84. There are a lot of tweaks you can try, to improve performance. I am playing CoD, online, with the specs you see in my sig, and other than the current CTD bug, am having a lot of fun. Link to the sub forum here:

Robtek he has a point and he is allowed to say it how he see's it.

You could offer him some advise since you do love this sim so much at its currant state.

Sorry rob but that how I see it.
