Default I give up at this game

I've had this game since this past summer and it became unplayable after a patch at some point in time. To this day it is still unplayable, and TWI has done nothing to fix it. I've seen youtube videos of people with identical systems as mine that have graphics hiked up to ultra and they get liquid smooth gameplay... Not mine though... It's a stuttering slideshow no matter how I change graphics or sound settings. How that happens is pretty much anyones guess, because apparently it's a common problem and not even the developers seem to understand why.

I gave it time, and it's evidently not going to be fixed.

Well, taking a stab in the dark, it's not the game itself that is the problem....

You probably have something installed incorrectly and is undetected but it shows when you play RO2. Try checking your drivers. When was the last time you updated all your drivers?

Check what servers you play in? As an Ontarian, I do remarkably worse in Russian servers, although, as a server, those are the ones open when I am not at work...

I have to agree with the others. There is an equal or greater chance that you may have something setup incorrectly or not quite right. That could be anything from old or improperly installed drivers**, antivirus, spyware, bad internet connections, you name it (one of the few drawbacks of PCs compared to consoles that I will admit to).

I'm not saying it isn't the game, but you'd be wrong to disregard other possible problems. Good luck.

** EX: I have Civ V. A few months back they came out with an update and the whole thing was a slow stuttering mess when it worked prior to that. What was wrong? Well it seemed that I needed to download the latest NVDIA display driver that fixed that and I did. Everything ran smooth after that. See how easy it would have been to blame the game?

Take a look to all your drivers. Don`t forget the chipset ones.
Scan for rootkits, trojans etc etc
Optimze your system with for example the free program advanced system care.

The first thing you should do is Post in Technical support :
http://forums.tripwireinteractive.co...splay.php?f=79

It sounds like some issue other than the game.


We have 3 systems with no problems. The AMD 1100T runs FAST on ultra -
the i5-2500k FAST on ultra - An older core2duo runs medium / slower than the other 2.
First 2 on windows 7, last on on XP.

also : Verify the integrity of your Steam cache as a first step
as that fixes the most common irregularities almost instantly.

I have a 2500k i5, HD 5770, 8 GB ram. As far as I know, all drivers are updated. Internet is a campus network, and I play on servers less than 150 ping, usually less than 100.

Do you have a friend with a good net connection you could take your computer to and try it there (use an ethernet cable) ? Keep us posted, several people have posted to try and help you. Good luck.
