This is a great little find, just applied said fix and my FPS went from around 25-30 to something around 50-80. Has made an unreal difference.

I must be one of the lucky ones as I have never experienced CTD bug at all, game is good to play in general. Biggest let down is the AI!!

PC
I5 750 2.66ghz 3.2ghz boost
12gb ddr3 ram
ATI hd 5850 1gb vram
win 7 64

I thought my pc was ageing, however I could play nearly all other games on max settings DCS a10 for one. Never occured to me that because of the intro my gfx may have been on idle speed of 300mhz compared to full throttle speed of 760mhz.

One happy camper

Did it really have influence on the real gameplay? I just thought, that the video intro just caused problem in the fps of replays!?! But when I am thinking about it, it should also effect the game itself logically.

That is a known bug, where the video card do not speed up, because it thinks, that the whole game is a video/movie. So some ati cards just speed up to a "movie watching preset clock"!

First thing, that I nnoticed with my new hd7970 was, that it just speeds up from desktop or 2D mode to something around 500 MHz core clock,, although this card is normally running above 1 GHz.

I found out with msi afterburner and its ingame overlay.

It is good, that u mentioned it again for all new guys. The topic is "not good" and I initially wanted to suggest to close another senseless thread next to others, where people already complaining. So, there is no need for a personal complaing thread. Perhaps someone close this and put this tipp into a more suitable thread. - Your decision
