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.

Tree, where do you get your info from?? I am running 64bit and unsupported GFX card Nvidia 8600gt (according to box) and i can run game, sure the frame rate is not good but like most ppl here you can see the potential and we are prepared to wait

@Klem

I get even 40FPS in that shot but to what purpose? The game looks like...

If you make the game to look a bit better in some aspects than IL2 1946 it gets utterly unplayable.

Yesterday I was chatting with a squad mate that lives in UK and he said: "I have I7 @ over 3GHz, 12GB of ram, a GT580 combined with a gt460, win 7 64, etc... and besides getting low FPS (around 30) at max settings (1920x1080) I get continuous and annoying stutters and when I get over London is finished... game over... under 10FPS." His satisfaction was in negative numbers...

This is really disturbing...I have i7920@3.5Ghz, MSI Twin Frozr2 GTX470 (OC to 750 Mhz on core) and 6GIGS of RAM, x-fi gamer, Win7 64bit....and even on med with low trees and buildings I have barely playable COD. With one plane in the air. Over sea. Sometimes its almost slide show.
Putting aside that game is released unoptimised....Will they EVER optimise this sim? Or this wil be an epic fail?

On top of everything AA is not working, sound of MG guns is too loud, external sounds are IL2 stock sounds of BF109.......is this april fools?

Weird,its running much better than that for me Tvrdi. Have you looked at all the optimisation threads here for tips on how to tweak your computer?

TBH I did what I know from my experience with sims and as beta tester....Will try to find something....is there a config.ini optimisation guide?

I had also the too loud mgs problem. Set your sound setting to binaural...that will work...otherwise same performance problems here

tnx Janpitor....

btw, Rise Of Flight, which had simmilar performance/optimisation problems at the release is now optimised pretty well (apart from some graphic glitches)...so thers a hope for COD....

Nope,

i have RoF since release. It was never run as bad as Cliffs of Dover upon release (no stuttering, multi-CPU support from the start and so on).

I am patient and give CoD time, but nevertheless I am a little pessimistic.

for you....for others and for me....was different..
