I think its kinda weird i never had any problems and i have kinda of shitty comp...........COMP SPECS:500 mhz proc. 738 RAM, Radeon 9500 pro 128 MB RAM.

I know alot of people with better comps get the low FPS now but i dont. HAHAHA YOUR TURN SUCKAS!!

[Biohazzard56]

Yea but you run at lowest settings

[WritheNC]

I have a pretty good computer and I run at near lowest settings.

With client side hit detection FPS means more than graphics...well ok if you want kills, anyway.

EDIT: That thread reminds me of Jurassic Park, when Jeff Goldblum was looking at the dinosaur crap and said, "That is one big pile of shit."

I dunno why that makes me chuckle inside...sigh.

sure thats not a bigger processor???

Dude..I cant even run high settings with 1024 MB of ram P4 2800 ghz DSL and a geforce 4 TI 4800

How the hell...

[Jagd]

Uhh yeah it's just that there is no way in hell a 500mHz processor can run Planetside. My old system was 500 and it could barely run BF1942. Are you sure it's not 1.5GHz?

And frankly I think it's a little insulting that they're now needing all these "diagnostics" as if it's our computers' fault that their crappy patch screwed up their own software. Give me a break, it wasn't a problem before so maybe they should look at the code they added first before passing the buck and pretending it's somehow our system configurations. Smells like microsoft.

That post at sony has gone onto 9 pages now and it takes forever to load.

[Hamma]

I feel bad for the QA who has to scour it

[Jarlo]

Yeah I posted about some video crashes I've been having since CC came out and they said it is probably a heat issue... even though it only happens when playing PS and only since CC was out..


/sigh

[ZjinPS]

I'm currently running a P4 2.5 w/ 512 of the 133 ram..128 meg radeon..and a 2 mbps cable connection.. I got just about everything turned down or off.

But the lag as of late has gotten me killed/mowed several times. But if I reboot and come back it slacks off for a short time.

Which isnt bad, no bushes and weeds for the badguys to hide in.

[Dharkbayne]

I can run it with everything but the flora and mesh detail on, and I have a geforce 3, only lags when I HART and when im going with afterburners on a skeeter through a forest

[Ait'al]

Edit:nm, sorry

What do they know so far about the problem?

[Exano]

Well if you change 3 options that dont affect gameplay whatsoever, you can change it and get awsome FPS

If you want i can tell you:
go into planetside game folder:
find engine3d_perf and open it
change New_Prefetch
New_texture
prime_geometry from true to false


Heres the catch tho, first you have to run planetside and wait until its at the "play" button..so it gets annoying

Its fixed ALL my suttering issues AND boosted my fps by 30...
It doesnt affect graphics either, so i dunno why sony just doesnt change that

Good luck
