Ok here goes.

I`ve got old 3Ghz P4 with 768MB of ram. Stoneage vid card with 128MB
And I have lil bit of lag when I join a map (30 to 60 sec usually) after that its smooth. (graphic settings are on low ofc.) I cant play Yamalia, Dragonfly, Korengal and one more map which I cant remember.

And then i see in forums how people are telling that they are lagging with 2GB of ram and some super Vid card.

How the hll can I play this game ?


Edit: Sorry didint know where to post this.

Changed thread title to something slightly more informative. Moved to PR:BF2 Support.


OT: It's probably because you have your settings correctly tuned to the capabilities of your machine, ie. all on low. Many people experiencing poor performance are simply trying to run the game with settings that far exceed what their PC can manage, bar the odd anomaly that have extremely good systems but still get lag.

Well, he isn't really asking for help.

About the original question: Guess it's the way the engine is optimized. When BF2 came out, there just were no multi-core systems and stuff, so I'd imagine the engine just can't handle those well.

Yeah I couldn't really think of a more descriptive title at the time.

Edit: better :)

The requirements for Battlefield 2 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia are well lower than your computer...that is how you run it.

I am also using a P4 3~ ghz and I lag only on a few maps and when PB runs.
