Also BF2 uses more GPU than PR, why?

because PR makes your CPU work 100% so it bottlenecks the GPU.

No, its like PR (OR BF2 itselft) not uses gpu at all





Now this is Swat 4 gameplay.



Check ATI mobility radeon (the first one) Its is GPU usage, and you can see that PR (OR BF2) uses almost 0 of it, but swat 4 uses gpu all time.

guys, it's pr, not your computer.
i have a fairly decent one

Operating System
Windows 7
Motherboard
MSI 870A-G54 AM3
Processor
AMD Phenom2 X4 965 3,4GHz Black Edition + Zalman CNPS9900NT
Memory
Corsair 8GB (4x2048MB) DDR3 1333MHz
Video Card(s)
Radeon HD6870 1GB Black Edition

and i still get 25fps looking in certain directions at some maps (like korengal) and 50-90 in other directions.

it's the maps, not your computers.

This. End of this thread and all future ones.
I thought we figured this out 12 months ago

Well if you have the SAME problems with 2x more better PC than mine, than the bad performance of mine side is over. And let me say that people who have problems with PR is who having ATI/AMD. Maybe its baldy supports the game?

Nope, I run Intel/Nvidia and the game still suffers the same problems

How hot is your laptop getting?

When i got low FPS on my PC i just upgraded my fans to keep it cooler. Try ventilating the laptop more maybe?

worth a shot?

I getting about 40C cpu idle, and ~60C when playing, never overgoing 70C. Everything like GPU is lower.

should be ok... mine was about 65o when i had a similar problem ... now its about 30-35o

Something bad sneaked in to the latest patch I think. I went from "PR runs well on my machine" to "PR is unplayable". That something is hiding in the new maps (the old ones still run fine).


Disclaimer before the usual replies: Just wanted to chip in with this as constructive feedback. No finger pointed at anyone. I know that if I have any problem with anything, i should go make my own game and my own mod and play it against myself

The increase of LOD, view range, and other stuff stress pretty badly the machine but it seem that Intel CPU's perform better than AMD.

My specs: Intel Core 2 Duo E8200 @ 2.66 GHz, Gigabyte 9600GT, Kingston 4 GB RAM at 800 MHz

FPS never drop under 24-25 FPS even on Korengal or Fallujah on High settings, max anti-aliasing.

I think it's pretty incredible that your FPS go that low actually. What results do you get in Vanilla?

Its great that new assets were added to the game, but I think they should stay within the vanilla polygon/texture budgets. Making everything super high poly only gives a small visual benefit, but a big framerate punishment - even for powerful computers.

(increased view distance is good though, it benefits gameplay too)

Okey new patch is out, i think i would have ability to test it in autumn. So what to ask, how was the patch for performance ?
