Shooting the Coffee Mug slows the game down

Just a brief slowdown. But I think this issue could cause a crash in combination with other things, like the forklift.
This is on Yamalia as Canadian.
Tested on CO-OP
How I tested it: I turned on the FPS, then unload 30 bullets into the coffee cup while hearing the water sounds.
Before: 78-84 FPS
During Firing: 65 FPS, 32 FPS, 15 FPS
How to fix it: Turn off the water impact effect including the sounds through BF2Editor. I will try to fix it anyway since instead of reporting bugs, I'll try to fix them

Nice to see someone's working on a fix for the broken effects.

Thanks for the report, i posted it in the internal bug tracker. If you come up with a solution w/o disabling the effect feel free to share it

The effects guys in the team are working hard on optimizing and fixing effects.
If you find any bad effects feel free to report them. We cant test everything and cant fix what we dont know is broken

Its not the effect itself, unless you are getting an fps drop by unloading a machinegun on any water surface like rivers/seas?
I dont think its the effect itsef, its hell of a light effect just a few low res testures. But what ive experienced is that if you shoot at it once, and this happens only on that cursed coffee mug, the effect plays continuously for some strange reason. So if you unload a 30 round magazine then the effect will start repeating itself 30 times every second and yeah thats gonna cause fps drops.
I dont know what to do effects side because the effect itself as i said, wont cause fps drops if only played once every hit like it should.
Weird

, we will reise this Arab thank you very much for the report.

Are we talking about the coffee mug in the commander's tent?

When the Canadian commander ordered "fifteen shots of expresso", ambiguity resulted in hilarity.

I think the only person that would shoot a mug would be me
@Brunittogg And that's cool to hear it won't lag. LOL about it being cola.

I think it's a combination of shooting an object, suppression effect and being point blank that causes it.
