I would have really missed that 'feature', I can tell you.

So glad I now have the opportunity to play CloD with EVEN LOWER settings and, somehow, have even less performance than with the alpha patch.

I was going to post an amusing photo of my hat on a plate, perhaps with a knife and fork, some vinegar...... so glad I didn't as now I would REALLY be eating my hat.

Not amused.

I am honestly not seeing any signs of ANY work having been done on this.

There are a multitude of factors that can be affecting your install/performance/hardware/configuration. I wouldn't write it off as a crappy patch just yet...

You could try fiddling with settings or re-install (as a proper beta-tester would) before saying its unsatisfactory...within the first 20 minutes of patch release, by the way.

True. But it's definitely not a problem at my end with the see-through tubing in the cockpit. lol Remember that the No.1 purpose was a graphics rewrite... and most, if not all, of the previously reported graphical problems are still very present. Not talking performance here (Which, as I said, is worse but I shall do a clean install and see what happens)... I'm talking graphics.

I just dragged and dropped, after deleting the conf and cache. I shall do a verify of the cache and see what happens there but.... it really isn't looking good. I know I don't have the greatest PC on the planet but, when my performance is getting worse with each patch.... I'd be very interested to know how the Direct X 9 users are fairing. lol

Sounds like you installed it wrong.

1st thing you want to do is verify the integrity of the game through steam. That will make the game vanilla. Then apply the patch / delete cache etc.

I'll just leave this here...

Transparent tubes in the cockpit are the least of this game's worries. I wouldn't even bother with mentioning them at this point...they're HARDLY game breaking...seriously.

Nope. But bad performance is.

Sorry, I'm bored at work and have to settle with trolling. I'm done now.

[Volksieg]

LOL

That be some major trolling, Aborted Man Quoting the fact that I don't have the greatest PC in the world hardly rewrites history... ie... the 245 hours I've flown in CloD with sufficiently good enough FPS.

I've learned a lot by hangin around here, heh.

Have you tried deleting the Ubisoft intro video? It seems ATI cards get stuck in 2d mode and underclock themselves for the rest of the game sometimes when playing it.

[Volksieg]

LOL Yep... got rid of the Ubisoft logo (Will they ever fix that one? lol Then again.. who wants their game associated with that bunch so they probably want us to delete the logo. ).

Just did a clean install and popped the patch on top of that and.....

....believe it or not.. it's now even worse.

Looks like my CloD days are well and truly over. Still.. I will say that HSFX 6.0 is the dogs doodahs so my flying days ain't over just yet, at least. lol

The dog's doodahs?!?!?!!?!? BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHHAAH

I actually laughed out loud at work, thanks for that.

Go get yourself a decent video card, GTX 560s are fairly cheap these days and will do the job nicely, we need people to stay with this game, not abandon it!

Stay away from ATI.
