I'm not sure if this affects everyone, but my computer seems to have a really hard time playing this map
When i do things my game tends to freeze alot, anyone else having the same problem?

I used to have this a lot with almost all maps, lowering you graphics settings, especially the textures, in the options menu helps a lot in reducing lag. a bad connection with the server can also cause unpredictable freezing.
hopes this helps you, otherwise you might want to check the tech support forum, I'm sure a common problem like this one has been discussed there before.

I had the same problem before, use to lag like crazy. I just ended up buying a new computer. I'm almost positive this is why this map is not as popular on servers, simply because it hogs resources for some reason. Fun map thou

I agree. It seems to require more memory usage then most maps. I got a memory crash twice last night playing the map. And i have textures low and run most other maps flawless.

Yeah, the map is bugged in regards to memory usage.
Honestly can't say if there will be fixing, I wouldn't count on it though.
If you want to play it, your best bet is lowering your Texture settings, if you can.

Even lowering my textures and overall graphics to lowest settings I kept crashing when I would get the visuals loaded. I never really liked the map, and the fact that everyone has FPS/stability issues with this map seems indicative of removal. I eventually loaded up, only to see the server half emptied as a lot of other people CTD'ed.
And god forbid should I want a helo extraction, my frames drop to less then 10.
I strongly suggest updating/removing this map as in its current version is clearly buggy and barely playable to many of us.
