i started playing this yesterday and its good fun but i have a few quick questions...
is there any commands i can use to stop the bobbing about as you move?
and what settings are the best to lower to gain most fps? i played yesterday @ 1920x1080 4xaa 4xaf habo off vsync on, and although i hold 120fps most of the time it still comes down into the 90's at times, id like to play at 120fps constant.
ta lads.
 
well all id like is so that the fps stays constant, im not too fussed about the eye candy. can the bobbing about be sorted?

You might gain some frames by nudging that CPU OC up to 4GHz, BC2 is very CPU dependant.

Still, I'd be surprised if you can tell between 60 and 120Hz on an LCD, they don't flicker like the old CRTs, and 60 would sync well with the refresh rate.

i tried with a higher OC yesterday but found it still wasnt holding 120fps enough so i clocked it back down as i get 50/50 sucsess @ POST with 4ghz :(
i have tried with screen at 60hz and yeah there is a difference to me, the IQ seems more solid @ 120hz

EDIT: "(On CRT's I used to need ~85Hz to feel totally smooth, but I'm older (slower) now.) "
yeah i just came from a 19" crt 4 weeks ago to this, if ever i changed my gfx drivers or smth the crt would default to 60hz.. i could tell straight away with the flicker, deffo need 85hz for that

Obviously vsync aint working because if it was your fps would be tied to the hz of your monitor normally 60....personally i dont know how anybody can play without vsync in any game...if you have an nvidia card you can use nhancer to lock the vsync properly,dont know what u can do with ati cards.

my monitor is 120hz and i get 120fps with vsync on. it doesnt work stright away in bc2 i have to change my res when entering the game, otherwise fps stays uncapped and ranges from 90-200+ , either the game wont run over 200 fps or fraps wont show it but that seems to be the limit

The bobbing is unavoidable as far as I'm aware, and to disable it would probably be considered cheating anyway. It's part of that realism factor. If you want to drop one setting, I recommend shadows. Medium and high make little difference so try dropping it to low. Or try disabling hbao as it is a bit of a performance hit. Personally, I think you'd benefit from the eye candy more than a few extra frames when you already have very good fps, and regardless of framerates, you're still going to be affected by lag etc that will make your gameplay less smooth anyway.

i already had habo off, il try with low shadows and see how we go, shame about the bobbing though :(
