Anyone else waiting?

[GRIZZLY]

I can only run the game on low graphics (which, for those of you who haven't experienced it, is a mish-mash of nintendo 64 and 2011) and my brother (who's computer I was using to play on ultra) has moved to a different continent.

I don't play Ro2 because of computer limitations, but I'm none too happy with the gameplay changes from Ost.

So...I'm waiting until February or so and buying a pimped out i7 with 12GBs of RAM and what not. Hopefully by then there will have been a lot of patches and/or mods.

Anyone else around here not playing, but hoping to return to a better experience sometime?

After 100 hours of agonizing playtime, I'm waiting 'till my rig performance is reflected in the game...

 

[Rabid Penguin]

I play it just fine, avg 40-60 FPS on Ultra.

I keep trying to play because I've loved RO for so long, but due to the issues I keep encountering I am going to have to put the game on hold until:

• Server admins get their head out of you know where and stop running 64 player servers that bog down when full. Maybe the game is broken, but just because youre supposed to be able to host a 64 player server doesnt mean you should be blind to the fact that it isnt working out. Try lowering the cap to 32 and increasing the tick rate to 40. I would personally jump for joy if I saw a server list full of populated 32/32 servers rather than a few 64/64 servers with over 200 ping.
• TWI releases a patch that would somehow improve server performance assuming it is not due to having insufficient processing power or bandwidth.

I'm not going to complain about the client because my own issues could be config-related and/or actually server issues manifesting themselves as stutter, etc. on the client. Not sure what else could be done client-side besides better hardware/config, and asking the devs to switch to DX11 is a tall order.

Frankly, I'm playing Skyrim right now, but I'm not going to give up on RO. I just can't locate a good game when I want to play. Looking forward to the finalized SDK though, as I'd love to tinker with porting old RO maps over.

I play it, my laptop runs it just fine on ultra. Mind you, "just fine" is 25-45 fps, I don't need more. Turning the graphics down does nothing for me lol.

 

[JaspisB]

The people claiming they are forever done with RO2... I'm just wondering... What are they doing here, in a forum dedicated to RO2, if they see no hope for improvement? Zen-like...

I'll come back when I get bored with this. Eventually.

I play it just fine, avg 40-60 FPS on Ultra.

I have 2 systems (one cost $980. - one cost $870.) playing it with slightly better FPS than above.
This is simply a game that does a lot and responds well to a fast, modern quad core CPU.
Try the Intel i5-2500kwhen you upgrade.

 

[hekuball]

play it, never had a problem with it really. I think what clambo says above is about right and running it with 8gb ram also helps.

 

[GoddangGurnades]

I play it. I run ultra just fine on my desktop with an Nvidia geforce GTX 470 so that's probably why. My issue is that the game won't run unless I'm very lucky. Otherwise I have to restart to get rid of the "Rogame.exe has stopped working" crash.

 

[DAT]

No problems here, have logged almost 250 hours so far

 

[TravisT]

Same here. 228 hrs logged. Having a great time.

 

[Krobar]

I'm playing it because it's better than those other FPS that came out recently.

 

[abjectblitz]

I'll start playing once the damn game stops dipping to 20 fps on my q9650 @ 4.2ghz and crossfire 5870's. Inexcusable, on a machine that eats crysis1 ,2 and bf3 for breakfast.

Also this game need new maps, official or mod scene. I don't care, we need more maps.

 

[Jeesmies]

When they limit semi/full autos and there's more bolt action i will return.

 

[Gudenrath]

I play it. Though it is getting to be a little repetitive since I only play Spartanovka (with a bit of Grain Elevators and Apartments added when I can't find a populated server running this map).

It is going to be sweet when the custom maps start appearing.

 

[Kleist]

I play it... sometimes...

But i would play it much more with great gameplay changes!

I want to play "RO2: Stalingrad 1942-43" not "RO2: Secret Weapons and

I never would have thought ro2 being this much lame. ( an opinion with a bit of exaggeration)

When even ro1 vets come back, that's the time if someone asks.
