Well not gameplay, but the new patch has royally messed up my enjoyment of the game, I have had to turn every setting off or minimum, I stutter all over the place and firing my weapon kills my FPS.
It was fine until the pacth, I have a good enough PC/internet connection, it just saddens me that this happens :(
This may seem like a whining flaming troll post but I am really upset about it. It makes the game totally unplayable atm with the stuttering poor performance. I know from fact that it will improve but I can't be bothered anymore with it.
:( Shame really, I'm gonna stick it out and try everything I know but how can a patch mess everything?
:) Feel the love.

I feel for ya. My game runs flawlessly....for about 5-15 minutes. Then it goes to shit. By that I mean my FPS drop to about 2, buildings, people, vehichles, rocks, trees, the ground, water, just about everything will randomly appear and dissappear. Requires a restart of my computer to fix it everytime. Needless to say it's a bit annoying.
Odd thing is I never had this problem...until the first patch after the retail launch. Even then it would happen maybe once every hour or so. No big deal I thought, it ony takes me about 45 seconds to reboot my machine. Then the next patch came out, and the next until it's now at the current 5-15 minute timeframe. It's also why I've been getting in some nostalgic gaming on games like Castlevania: Symphony of the Night recently ;)

Mine drops back to windows with no warning, it can do it within a minute of logging on or go a couple of hours. Most annoying, especially for my gunner.

Yeah I dropped my Lib cert for a lighting because it really sucks for a bombing crew when their pilot drops from the game10 times an hour. Better if I just screw just myself over instead of myself and 2 other outfit members :p

Well considering this is a brand new pc.......I get around 160-210 fps for about 10 minutes, then it'll go down to around 60 and stay there for the rest of the day.
Other than that I think the patch went off without a hitch. I expect the normal patch's patch soon. But this time only because it did something to screw up fps's, instead just causing stupid problems.
