Sry for spelling wrong!

High view distance to see further, and effects on high to see bullet impacts well.

Effects: This setting controls various special effects in the game. The difference between Medium and High is not noticeable, but when set to Low the most significant impact is that decals such as bullet holes will no longer appear on walls and objects. However even at Low the explosions, smoke and puffs of dust from bullet impacts will still appear in full detail. The effects setting does not have a major impact on overall performance, however if you are slowing down significantly during heavy combat scenes reduce it to Low to improve FPS. Note that you cannot disable the 'blurred vision' effect which occurs when you are near an explosion - that is a part of the game regardless of your settings, and to disable it (even if possible) would be considered a cheat.

Maybe best to just have it on LOW if you think of the best FPS.

It's worth playing with maximum view distance, but everything else is reasonable even on low settings.

If you have the computer for it, you should run everything on max I would say. That is if you don't get any FPS drop from doing so. Having low textures makes me sad

having effects on high does not lower your framerate at all, you can have view distance at 75% depending on your PC of course, but effects is recommended to be set on high to see where your bullets are hitting, everything else can be set on low, if you paly on 800x600 resolution, see if you can set antialising on X2 to make building borders look smoother, I had my settings like that when playing on low.

Having effects on High vs. Low lets you see explosions (e.g. Mortar hits) far off in the distance whereas in Low Effects it does not show the explosions in the distance iirc.

Also geometry on high allow you to identify enemies from bigger distances.

Allot of good points here! But I dont got the computer for it. I got an simple laptop.
So for a simple laptop, effects on hight to se bulletdrops,
I cant take to much on high because then its starts lagging.
Yeah we got the same avatar

(I`ll bet you I was the first to have it) ;D

All to the max first, then lower things as needed. Textures to medium, completely disabling Anti-Aliasing (x2 sometimes makes fps worse, so either go full or none).
