I will be keeping what I have :D , my i7 920 is very stable at 4.0 (cool as cool enough), my ram is 6Gb corsair, mobo is a gigabyte ex58-ud5 and my graphics card is more than enough.. (window7 .. but still) there is still something wrong with the game, that forces it to get nerfed so much on my system. Needing to trade up a more than powerfull enough system, because of one game not running great would be mental, and hardly a clever thing to do if you play other games. :crazy: It's a BI thing, I refuse to feel any hardware envy. lol To be fair - I will be trying future ATI drivers too, if it improves worth shouting about I will post it here. Lesson learned though. Janxy - Yes I patched to 1.05 both times, I don't want to think about how it was pre 1.05 - that would have been too much. Not that I'm bitching, glad to see BI releasing them..... unless that was the last one!!! lol

Hi Janxy, I tried it out last night and got some settings that seem ok. Interface Resolution - 1920 x 1200 3D Resolution - 1920 x1200 ViewDistance - 5238km Texture Detail - Normal Video Memory - Very High Anisotropic Filtering - Normal Antialiasing - Disabled Terrain Detail - High Objects Detail - Very High Shadow Detail - Very High Postprocessing - Disabled Maybe something went a bit wrong with my first install, though I did it the exact same this time, I also defragged after both installs. For the single player missions these settings seem fine. :bounce3: I might tweak a few of the settings depending on whats going on in the game, but last night it played good enough with these. Thanks again for the help ;), I was fed up moving the settings around all last week, only to keep getting a glitch fest.

Thanks mate, I really appreciate you posting your help on this. I'm going to load it up and patch it and then try your settings out. I will post back and let you know how it goes. I tried all types of settings last time from the lowest to the highest, various resolutions and the other stuff posted in the tweaks, and all I got was mad textures and crashes. It was a real pain. My windows is also on my sata hard drive, no cash for any of the SSD drives yet... maybe later. I also tried various catalyst drivers, right now I'm using the hemlock ones from the AMD site. The 9.12 drivers seemed worse to me. What drivers are you using ? Anyway, thanks again and I will post back later. Fingers crossed ;)

Unplayable for me, i7 920, 6 gig ram, ati 5970 on windows 7. I have tried the tweaks mentioned round the boards, HT off in bios, mem stuff in the .cfg and so on, nothing does the trick. Everything else I play runs great so I'm not going to make any major changes to my set up, this has to be a BIS screw up of some kind. I've removed the game but will keep an eye out for future patches.. that might fix things for people with my specs. (I'm not alone) Shame, the game running better would be hard to beat. The last week tring to get it going has been nothing but frustrating. If any players with my specs have it running at anything close to playable, please let me know how you managed it.

What can I say :( It's not going good for me at all :( My system should be fine specs wise - i7, 6 gig of ram and a 5970, (windows7...but still) :butbut: but I can't get any joy from it. Textures flashing and freeze crashing, quite frustrating to say the least. (there are other things but I don't like to whine :P ) I have tried a few of the tweaks on the forum but so far nothing worth smiling about, looks to be a 'bit' rushed out the door. I hope it gets sorted out at some point until then I will give it a miss. Shame this could have been a total classic.. I hope it gets sorted out.
