[QUOTE="Nibroc420"]Ohh, so you're saying that with the recent update your computer's cpu was unable to handle the particles and such that have been added in to make the game look nicer? Nope, not hard to understand at allRemmib
You would have to be a complete idiot to think that 'particles' which I never even saw make any difference (don't know when they went into effect) would bring my FPS down from a steady 60-70FPS at all high settings to dropping down to 15-30FPS at low settings.
Or... ? Am I supposed to be afraid and, like, stop posting because you want me to?
What are your computer specs? I'm assuming you're yet another user trying to play the game with inadequate hardware. If you don't have a good CPU and video card and at least more than 2 gigs of RAM, I wouldn't expect to get great performance from this game even at lower video settings.
THA-TODD-BEAST
It's because you simply don't understand what you are talking about.
Read my above statement to Nibroc.
E8400 @ 3Ghz
8800 GTX
4 gigs of ram
Few months back TF2 ran butter-smooth, now it doesn't because Valve screwed something up. Many other users are experiencing this same problem.
In before you say I need to update my drivers, or I need to defrag, or I need to verify the cache, or I should do a clean install of my OS...it's been done, no fix.
if Valve messed something up, then that would mean the game itself is messed up. If the game itself is messed up, the vast majority of people would be having problems (see GTAIV for bad optimization- nearly EVERYONE who had this game when it came out complained about this, regardless of their hardware). Can you explain why the vast majority of people aren't having any problems?
