If you dont understand, then dont say you have an awesome comp. I can spend 4000$ on a falcon northwest custom paintjob for my case. Money != good.


And I assume all your other games are single-player? I can run Max Payne 2 at full settings at 60 FPS, however, I get 10-60 in PS. Why? Because there is so much going on, and the fact that the engine draws everything that you cant see. Keep in mind that, in addition to rendering all of the data, your computer also has to send out packets to the server, which are then distributed to other players. Same thing happens with other players and you. Every step or action a player does, is sent from thier compute,r registered on the server, distributed to everyone around you, who has to download that packet, open it, and render the information contained within, all within a fraction of a second.

That said, you will not get good frames, unless you have over a 2.0 GHz, 1 GB RAM, and a 9600 +. Period. There is far too much information for anything else to render efficiently.

for 1 thing i now , my comp has over 50 GB of ram if im not confused by all the comp stuff i got , and another thing , my dad tought me all about packets and stuff right after he gave me the "Birds and the Bee's" talk

[Rayder]

50 gb of ram? You sure thats not your hard drive, cuz they are different.

[SilverLord]

Bring it. Ill beat you back down from whence you came with my mad 16-year-old pseudo-goatee.

[Nimbus]

Yeah, most PC's you are gonna see are gonna have a max of 2-4 gb of RAM. Some high end servers and supercomputers may be able to handle 50.

[I Hate Pants]

I bet you any money this kids got a shit lugger of a computer.

[xmodum]

i hate pants, no my comp in my room is a piece of shit , if thats wut u mean , the 1 i play games on is seriously hooked up , not with 50 GB like i said , cuz i dont know wth is in it ,all i know is that its got like 112 GB of something in it

[xmodum]

And I assume all your other games are single-player?, quoted by Spee
no most of my games are multiplayer , my only games that are single are my MOH games that i never play anyways becuz i play PS to much cuz no game will ever match it cuz its the tightest game ever!

dude figure out you system specs and driver versions and things liek thatthen go post in the tech forum with your problem in detail and we might be able to help.
Take something to clam you down to, like cynide.

Yeah, get your specs from your dad if he hooked it up. Don't ask for answers that we can't give you without specs.

Spee, go a lil easier man. I can see where ur coming from but lighten up. :)

[Chaaos]

Sounds like every freakin customer i have ever had in my job as a computer sales/tech.

Sorry man cant help you if you dont know what you have.


"will this work in my computer??" -customer

I have a good comp, 2.4ghz 1.5gb pc2700 Radeon9800 and the game started great and is now a laggy mess. It takes about a full second to run through a door now when before that was only a problem when I played on my laptop, 512mb ddr 1.8ghz 64mb gForce 4. Lagging is more common, lasts longer, continent loads are longer. What gives?

[Rbstr]

Ah ha! specs! good man, but your not the original guy, oh well. Your memory is kinda slow, if you put on new drivers try going to an older version. Continent loads have gotten longer for everyone.

Martyr, you so fucking win. :thumbsup:

[dscytherulez]

My specs are in my sig and PS hasn't really changed lagwise for me at all. I'm kind of suprised considering everyone and their damn grandmother is bitching. I actually get pretty good FPS overall...

[sutserikeru]

my gaming comp sux, so im not going to complain cuz i no the reason :P

[SkunkPunk]

is it a mac?

*EDIT* btw, what do u guys think of RD ram i think i might buy me a stick for x mas is it any good?

[Rbstr]

rd rams only works in rambus mobos (rd ram is rambus) rambus = bad except for the 1066mhz stuff im getting sleepy i htin ki should go to be now but for some reason i can't leave the computer help me!

[SkunkPunk]

the trenquillizers will kick in soon enough, dont worry... sleepy time for u

[Exano]

Type "Run" and then type in the box dxdiag--Tell me your specs from there. That will help alot, if you dont know what ram is that is probly your problem :p

[kerosene31]

Post your system specs in the official boards on the tech support forum. Help you they can!

[TheRagingGerbil]

Tech forum is great for such a topic...

Anyways, I don't think there is a single platform that woudl support 50 gigs of system memory. I don't even think there is anything that will handle 50 megs. You would see that king of power unless you were running a grid. Grid computing is where you have multiple pc's all conected together working on a single operation simultaneously, thus acting as one powerful computer.

[RagingSpeedhorn]

Wow,

all i know is that its got like 112 GB of something in it

I got some of that too, next to my 512MB of whatever. Listen kid, if you seriously want help, then find a way of letting us know what your comp specs are.

This might be a good start:

Start > Run > dxdiag

[TeraHertz]

Rather than come up with a sarcy comment, I think I'll say something useful for a change. It is Christmas after all.

click the button on the bottom left of the desktop that says START

Click on the bit that says "Run....."

In the thing that says Open:, type "dxdiag" then press the enter key on the keyboard.

The first page that comes up will give you the basics you need to know about your PC.

GG Terra

Think he's got it now.

As to the comps and such...

I run a 2.2 ghz
1gig pc2700 RAM
Geforce FX5900

With a sliced down to the ninth degree version of XP pro

Before the Loadstar patch I got around 20fps in a huge battle! It was fun shooting at the majority of people who were standing still.

After the Loadstar patch sometimes (and the real bitch is not always) But if I look at a base that has more then 30 people in it (even if that base is behind a hill) my SPF drops to around 4... and stays there. It's really made PS unplayable for me in alot of ways.

I figure after the hollidays I'll buy 2 SATA drives and rebuild from the OS up, hope that helps!

Also a fun trick is to go get Norton Ghost and make an image of your disk, then just restore it. Best defrag in the world, right there!
