Never tried as my internet is no good for online gaming ... :(

Also I reinstalled and didn't re-apply the patch as I was getting some corruption to the sound with the patch ... :?

@ Cornflake ...

Yeah ... I did get it going with AA ... but it disables the shadows which I don't like.
I also found changing the resolution from 1920x1200 to 1680x1050 didn't make much difference to the FPS. The best way to improve FPS was lowering the shadow quality which doesn't look so bad.

By the way ... did you not get that PM I sent you re your System Specs ?


Hmm... I think I'd like keeping shadows better than AA... so 1920x1200 here I come! in under 10 hours (until the 25th for me)! :D. Oh, and I just got your PM you sent me... the PM'ing system hasn't been notifying me of my messages!


GREAT Gameplay, GREAT Graphics, GREAT Sound and sometimes GREAT LAGS. :P


Glad to hear it... um... except for the last one :wink: And with the 8800GTX I should be able to run in high resolutions because it's a trooper with those. One of the strong points about the card is it keeps good performance at a high res.

Well, for a 24" monitor it's alot of pixels... which is not good (like 50 dead pixels or something of the like) but I wouldn't be concerned about that too much. I have yet to buy a new LCD with a dead pixel!

Just got this and I'm running it with the 1650 bin file i got from here, and I'm getting a solid 20fps for most of the time. Sometimes there's some weird light situation where it goes down to about 6fps though.

My screenshot as comparison..



That's with everything in the video options ingame turned to OFF. How did Jazza make his look even less shiny? I want to try that out to see if i can increase my fps any more.

Well, he probably looked at the R6: Vegas Optimization Thread in the offical Ubi forums and turned some of the bult-in effects off which made the game look absolutley horrible... the game never actually looks that bad though.

Having bought the game just a few days ago, i'm very impressed! I run it in 1920x1080 with my 8800GTX, with an average in the 50s - 60s and sometimes a dip in the 40s in single player. I noticed no difference between Medium and Low in the shadow detail, so I run it in low and get a +15 FPS bonus :)

The gameplay really is addicting, and much more tactical like it was in RvS which is wonderful! Multiplayer is a blast too. I'd reccomend it for anyone that has a system that could handle it. Let me show you guys a screen or two (click to enlarge:)






-Cheers!

i can understand why people with low-end systems are complaining. My GX2 and E6600 (@3GHz) are HAMMERED by this game... but me no complain! :lol:

The graphics are very very sweet. And surprisingly the gameplay is tight! I'd dare say BETTER THAN GRAW?! And GRAW was 2006 GOTY for me, so that's saying something. R6V is like GRAW but with more weapons and non-brown scenery. :)
