World In Conflict Demo Today!!!

I would disagree, i was playing it on my 3700+ X800 1Gb rig in the beta and with so moderate settings, 1280x1024 it wasnt doing too bad.

Unfortunately i got my new rig the day the beta closed :( :p

But now i have the demo! So i will be trying to play that at some point at the weekend if my BioShock addiction doesnt take over..

Try the benchmark and wave good bye to your rig. For some stupid reason their in built benchmark isn't really relative of real world gaming

Agreed, I can run the game perfectly with 2560x1600 with everything on full but the benchmark still hits low teens in a few spots

Ugh, just like in beta there's hardly any difference.
It seriously must be me but in DX10 and my rig, I don't see any of these new features, people say it's there but well, go fraps me a vid :p

I have some Highres videos of this and it look nothing like they where trying to sell. Don't get me wrong, the game looks incredible for an RTS but, where's my volumetric lighting/sun rays , cloud shadows on terrain, smoke effects (soft particles?)..
 
Wow really enjoyed the demo, talk about frantic though!! Hope the other SP levels are not all like that, in the end I couldn't really focus on what was going on and ended up just laying down daisy cutters all over the place. Lol. Was chaos! :)
 
Daisy cutters? my fire support points were capped at 20 in the sp demo :( meaning i couldnt get the 30point daisy cutter...
 
Its quite interesting if you set up skirmishes with the AI and set all of the players to Infantry and have a giant infantry war... unfortunately you have to go something else because theres too many infantry CPUs on your team, but i mainly let the AI fight it out and had my fun with napalm. :D
 
Do you guys know what "Z-Feather" does to the graphics?
EDIT: Z-Feather is the softening of smoke particles... no wonder I get an FPS improvment... saying the game uses a lot of smoke. :)

Just been fiddling and managed to gain an extra avg: 4FPS by turning off...

  • Z-Feather
  • Soft Shadows
  • Heat Haze

Now as far as I can tell, from running just the benchmark it looks the same. :) And when the nuke explodes it doesn't dip to like 11FPS, instead it hangs around 16-19FPS. Result! :D

So now my avg has increased from 26 to 30/31FPS, and this is with all the options on HIGH as well as Transparancy AA, etc, but Physics is on MED as on HIGH it really kills my rig.

So perhaps if people need a few more frames (like I did/do) to bump up your avg FPS then try turning those options off.

The lower quality textures in the demo when all set to max is doing my head in, in the beta they were amazing, in the demo they just plain suck, some say they lowered them do reduce the demo size, i don't believe this as a demo is meant to impress potential buyers and there is no mention of it on the official forums where other people have noticed the lower quality textures, now it could be a driver issue which i doubt as the beta looked fine. I have posted some shots up of the textures from low up to high, compare if you wish but the high setting is not a patch on the quality on the beta. If this is the quality in the retail version when maxed out i wont be buying it.:(

LOl this game kicks ***. Done the sp mission, so fun with the naval gun just lay into the city. MP os fun but some times i would like it to last longer than 20minutes when theres a dead clash and theres still no winner. My name is PublicEnemy in game
 
Does anyone know, when you create a skirmish game... how do I get people to join? I.E. on my LAN I have 2 PC's, is it possible to do a 2 player game?

I can't seem to figure it out, the only option on the skirmish page is to create a game, not to join any. :(

Thanks.
