Ahoy esteemed forum friends,

I am running a high spec rig and I have a T1 internet connection. During the first half of the beta my in game performance was stellar with only minor bugs etc. Now, since the update from yesterday, the game is nearly unplayable. The game lags so badly, that you simply can not even walk out of most rooms. It jerks and jumps my character model all over the place. The lag response of the controls of a tank are even worse. It takes maybe 45 seconds to 2 minutes for my gunner to switch from optics to the interior of the tank. I have been joining only low ping servers and this simply does nothing to remedy the performance. I even have the graphical settings turned down to a fine medium point that allows extra performance boosts. Is anyone else experiencing these nearly unplayable conditions?

I'm running the same cpu as you @3.8 and a GTX 480. I'm having the same problems as well. I played for about 3 hours this morning and gameplay felt really 'clunky'. This evening I can't even join a server without crashes and other weird stuff. When I could join a game earlier performance was definitely better pre-patch.

+1 there.

I was running very smooth on medium settings, and happy as could be. I stayed at 60-66fps on all three of the previous maps, even on Fallen Heroes.

Now, on Barracks, I get anywhere from 20-45 with MAJOR lag. Like if I turn to either side, big problems. And even at that it crashes. I tried to go down to 'low' settings but after a re-start the game crashed twice in a row.

Yeah the new maps are massive FPS hogs. I haven't been able to get on a server with any of the 'old' maps yet to see if it's across the board or not.

Make sure your shadows are cranked up to high or ultra..that seems to lessen or stop most crashes.
