BF2 Performance Issues.

Helium_Junkie · 19 Jul 2007 at 10:19

I have been playing BF2 for a while now, and I havent ever been able to max out the graphics settings, which makes me sad. Normally on high the game runs quite smoothly, but I get frequent stutters. I'll be running along beside a wall and all is fine, turn a corner and stuttering kicks up until I get back behind the wall

Spec:

E4400 C2D @ 2.7Ghz
2GB Ballistix PC5300
GeForce 6800GT with latest drivers
Xfi (Sound seems fine, never seemed to affect performance)

If anyone has any advice on how I can stop the stuttering I will gladly hear it, I've had to drop all graphics settings to low, and I'm sick of it

I've already put the settings to medium/low. Anything that can be turned off is off, and I still get the odd stutter :'(

If you running along and you get sent back a few paces, isn't that a connection issue? I don't see how your hardware would do that.

No no, I dont get sent back a few paces, but when I return to where I previously was, the issue sometimes stops. It's not when I look out over the whole of the map or anything either, it can be anything from that to looking at a barrel, or the AT mine at my feet. It seems utterly random and not related to the amount of detail on the screen.

Regardless of either of those, I thought it might be loading lag for new textures etc, but the problem persists

Ordered a 2900XT now, so we'll see if that helps. If it doesnt I will be crying for a while.
