1. Have you noticed a significant performance decrease from 0.87 -> 0.9?
Yes, but mostly on the new maps. On previous maps, I noticed a 10-20 frame drop.



2. On a scale of 1 to 10, how would you rate your performance in 0.9.
9, aside from the above issue, its a mod and its free. Things seem much smoother and brighter/more vivid. I can see passed these small issues to enjoy the game and the awesome insurgency mode I also get the limitations of the engine as well as its age.



3. Name three or more maps in 0.9 which result in the worst performance.
Gaza, Lashkar, Ochimara



4. From the maps mentioned above, state which specific areas/directions affect your performance the most.
Optic zooming, binocs, when facing certain directions - It seems when there is more to draw, my frames drop to 15 or below while facing another direction i get 85+. There is very little stuttering and no texture issues (invisible floors etc)


5. Name any maps that you have no performance issues with.
Fallujah, Muttrah

Thanks for the mod and taking the time to read over this to improve it.

1. Have you noticed a significant performance decrease from 0.87 -> 0.9?
Not significant although slightly, mostly on new maps and a couple of old ones.


2. On a scale of 1 to 10, how would you rate your performance in 0.9.
8 - 20-60 fps-ish


3. Name three or more maps in 0.9 which result in the worst performance.

Qwai River,
Ramiel,
Beirut,

However I have in no way tried all maps yet.

4. From the maps mentioned above, state which specific areas/directions affect your performance the most.
Lashkar: Areas with dense overgrowth mainly.
Qwai River: Most places, especially in large areas with lots of overgrowth has had a slight fps drop.

1. Have you noticed a significant performance decrease from 0.87 -> 0.9?

YES

2. On a scale of 1 to 10, how would you rate your performance in 0.9.

I would rate it a 2 or 3 - new maps unplayable

It runs fluidly apart from very frequent "studders" when everything freezes for ½-5 seconds. This makes the game unplayable.


3. Name three or more maps in 0.9 which result in the worst performance.

All new 0.9 maps (and Fallujah I found out yesterday)

4. From the maps mentioned above, state which specific areas/directions affect your performance the most.

Unclear - most maps have a combination of water, vegetation, vehicles and buildings. Have not found any specific cause.

5. Name any maps that you have no performance issues with.

The old maps, but it seems they load slower and run a little bit worse. Can play most of them though. Muttrah runs well.

Beirut, Korengal Valley, Gaza Beach. These are all I can recall as I haven't played many of the maps in .9


4. From the maps mentioned above, state which specific areas/directions affect your performance the most.
Gaza Beach someplaces I would run fine, I think I remember an Insurgent hideout built on the E side of the city by the wall that lagged so bad I choose not to spawn there for the rest of the game. Korengal and Beirut were just 24/7 lag everywhere.


5. Name any maps that you have no performance issues with.
All the old .87 maps like Muttrah City runs fine, but it loads slower.

1. Have you noticed a significant performance decrease from 0.87 -> 0.9?

Yes, I have use FRAP to monitor my fps when I gameplay. I have experienced a massive lag when I was playing Fallujah West. Used to be 45 fps -> 15 fps

2. On a scale of 1 to 10, how would you rate your performance in 0.9.

Since I am lagging on 40% of the maps. I would rate it 3/10. It really killed the feeling of playing it. It used to be 10/10... I am kind of disappointed, but but if there is a fix! Please let me know!

3. Name three or more maps in 0.9 which result in the worst performance.

Fallujah West, Fools Road, Sniper lag on this map -> (I can't remember the new one which is Militia Vs British Army, it is a defence type where ennemy have to capture a fortress which is kind on an island...)

4. From the maps mentioned above, state which specific areas/directions affect your performance the most.

In Fallujah West, the smoke slowed me down heaps! Grasses from the land also makes me lag. In the British map I mentioned above, zooming using scope guns lag lots! When I am normal scope, I get 98 fps, during zoom it slows to 15 fps but stabilises back to 98 fps...

5. Name any maps that you have no performance issues with.

Kashan Desert, Operation Barracuda, Silent Eagle. Since it is a new patch, I have not tried all of them yet...

PS: Can I still edit this? I mean will you still read it? Cause I might find more problems to it.

Gaza Beach (15fps), Dragonfly (15 - 20fps), Fallujah West (15 - 20fps), Lashkar Valley (15fps - 20fps)


4. From the maps mentioned above, state which specific areas/directions affect your performance the most.
Gaza - if I look towards the centre of the map - my computer dies.
Dragonfly - Quite bad everywhere, the worst area is central city or in the fields in the NE corner.
Fallujah - Everywhere.
Lashkar Valley - Fine in the desert and hills - as soon as I look directly towards the Main northern town my computer has a fit (in a bad way).

With all maps my loading time has increased quite significantly. In .87 it was about 1 -2mins for most maps, my average loading time now is closer to 4minutes. Almost doubled. This is with new and old maps.

Only time I have significant problems is when I try to "jerk" the camera around... like when I get into a surprise engagement. When I "jerk" my comp tends to lag real hard for a couple milliseconds and my screen "jumps".
This may be unrelated, but my system does not play well with JDAMs

I had NO lag on Fahlooja before .9. Now I can barely play it.

1. Have you noticed a significant performance decrease from 0.87 -> 0.9?

A large performance decrease. I've tried over-clocking and not over-clocking both my CPU and two graphics cards. I've tried running the game using only one 3870 card. I've messed with the video settings a number of times ranging from maxed out, which is what I used to do, all the way down to minimum. The performance loss doesn't seem to be a horsepower problem, same results every time.

Fallujah West
Gaza Beach

And basically any map late in the game when there is a lot of debris and objects scattered about.

4. From the maps mentioned above, state which specific areas/directions affect your performance the most.

When you look towards a large portion of the map assuming your back is close to the map edge, the game slows down. And if it is late game with a lot of body, environment, and vehicle debris. Example: You spawn in U.S. base in Fallujah and immediately looking North East will kill your FPS until you look away. This is from start to finish.

5. Name any maps that you have no performance issues with.

Basically all maps in one fashion or another. The entire game just doesn't run as well. Even if I play on a map that doesn't give me visual FPS problems, I guarantee I still lost FPS compared to what I used to have. The only thing is that with some maps I may have gotten 100 fps, but now get 60. That's still a problem from a technical stand point.
