Stalingrad in the Budget class

[Comrade Heavy]

I'm curious of how HoS runs for you people with medium-spec computers.

I play on tuned down settings (http://cloud.steampowered.com/ugc/578932944782751214/C1C5AE2917624D3FD48122788E0097E269D748BA/) and had personally hoped for more frames. I receive about 30-40 and most of the time and about 60 in-doors on 64/64 servers.

My rig:

XFX 4890
C2D E8500 @3,16GHz
4GB DDR2 800MHz RAM
Vista 64-bit

Do you think the performance will be improved in the final build? Overall seems like a very nice game, haven't played enough to make a proper judgement yet.

Your rig is close to mine. (Only I have a quad core processor) Hopefully I can run it smoothly (I don't mind turning of some of the eye candy)

What we have observed in the beta is that shadows have pretty big impact on the FPS, so put them on low - this does not really affect visuals. Also try typing umbra culling in the console ( it will turn the feature off without displaying any message ) and see if that gives a boost as well.

i run an AMD Phenom II X3 720 and a Radeon 6870. 4 gigs DDR3/1333, Win 7/64.

On medium settings I'm getting mid-40's to mid-60's depending on the map and level of action around me. Mind you, medium settings still looks great to me!

Considering in 2006 my computer then could BARELY handle RO, and how my current build handles RO now....this is a good starting point!

I honestly don

I don't want to drop shadows to low as it causes character shadows to disappear. What seems to be the biggest framerate killer, except for shadows?

phenom II x4 965 5850HD and 4gigs of ram. I run everything on highest setting, 1920x1080 resolution. I turn off motion blur and bloom for preference.
Not sure of fps, was never low enough to care to look.

I'm running an old rig now, will be upgrading by Xmas hopefully but here's the specs -

E6750 @ 2.6ghz
3 Gigs of XMS2 RAM
HD 4870 512mb
Win 7 32bit
1680x1050
-

The game is very playable on low-medium settings, and is acceptable running everything on medium to medium-high, although it's down to player preference.

drop shadows to medium, still get player shadows but a large fps increase anyway.

Turn off bloom and motion blur too but probably wont help too much.
