Did you measure the fps with FRAPS or a console code or are you guessing?

It isn't a disk problem as I have a RAID0 array and I don't see a lot of harddrive activity, I have also disabled a lot of services in XP so that's not it either.

Fraps, It really would not help anyone to be guessing fps...although I think some people maybe don't guess but take a flash measurement

Well sounds like My theory's a waste of time..

I just tried the new drivers and set everything on very high with 4xAA and i was getting 14-17 fps little improvement, gonna try high now LOL

Or you may not be getting 20fps

The important point is the Mouse stays pretty good even when the game is dragged down to (just checked bench logs) 17.5 fps average

Hey ! I'm trying to help people here not blow sunshine up My PC's exhaughst fan..

i was testing drivers and the reason i would run very high because i like eye candy and i want to see all the effects that crysis is currently offering.

I hope that answers your question

But, you do realise that the game hasn't even been released yet and much can change in terms of drivers and patches in the future, right?

YES 100% and you can search through my posts and see I commented many times on it being Pre Release Demo and I hope thats its optimised by Final and better Nvidia drivers.

Well, as it's a game I would have thought Highest settings that gave a playerble frame rate is the most important.....But it's Your Choice..

yes but thats what you do when you have no choice, hence i and most are running it on "high" but we would like to run very high at playable fps but at the moments it looks like we need newer gfx card or if we are lucky maybe final game and newer drivers may allow us to enjoy the candy

I'm more than happy with my 7600gt runing it at 2fps on high thanks

@2fps you have room to move up to the Very high settings...what's the matter with you...wimp

I would do so but the options grayed out i guess thats where dx10 comes in I'm sure 0.5 fps on very high would be fine if it gave me the option

I'm playing it in DX9 on vista with all settings on High except for shaders and something else that begins with s that i can't remember, anywho i'm getting 25 fps average atm, how many more frames would i gain roughly by playing in xp?

DaveOwl · 30 Oct 2007 at 17:12

Using Very High at 1920x1200. Had to turn AA off though to get it running pretty well. Not completely smooth.

The gameplay doesnt appeal to you, I dont believe the graphics is 'why I wont play this' or you'd never have played any games in years previous to this.

Reminds me of a 10yr old who wont eat his chips without ketchup, god help the industry if thats who they have to win over to sell a game

I would rather wait and play a game as it is intended to be played, even if that means waiting to see how things pan out.

A better analogy would have been a 10 yr old refusing to eat week old chips rather than waiting for a fresh batch :rolleyes:

But hey, some people are happy with sub-standard products

The physics seem to need some work, in the editor for example if you launch a nuke, tree's get unaffected by the blast regardless of how close they are. Plus the rocks from the explsion dont even cause splashes when hitting into the water. :confused:
