I remember driving a tank upstairs once, everyone was like: "lol wut?"

I get my lightning into places it shouldn't be all the time. Really messes people up when they round a corner and see a tank that by all logic should not have been able to get in... Or rather, the shell they weren't expecting messes them up.

Too bad this game only runs at like 20 fps (guessing, haven't actually checked)... I bet I would do much better if it ran at a proper framerate.

Pressing Alt+F in-game should show you your FPS in the lower-left of your HUD.

Get a better computer or lower the settings.

This also tells you what the bottleneck is. Use that to figure out what needs to be faster or turned down.

[Alan Bolte]

If your bottleneck is CPU, I've heard from some goons that there's an ini around somewhere that will triple your framerate without sacrificing overall graphics quality.

My bottleneck is GPU, so I haven't gone looking for it, I just need to get around to buying a new graphics card.

[Aardwolf]

Settings are already at minimum... well, I've got it fullscreen at min (50%) render quality... maybe if I made it a smaller window at 50% render quality... but bleh

The Ultra Settings config. Works well enough, but triple is an extreme exaggeration.

Minimum in-game isn't really minimum. That's what the ini is for.

Anyway, CPU/GPU and which does Alt-F say is the bottleneck?

[Aardwolf]

Looks like it's usually CPU, and the lowest it normally gets is 20fps... except when it decides to go at like 1fps for just long enough to get me killed, of course.

Often I can never manage to put my reticle on a target... I thought it was the choppiness, but now I notice I'm just having trouble seeing where the reticle is... why can't they just put a ****ing crosshair in the center of the screen, instead of these 4 tick marks that are everywhere BUT where I need them to be in order to put them on my target... yeah yeah, I know the separation of the tick marks indicates how much scatter there will be to my shots, but couldn't they have that in addition to a standard crosshair that actually lets me see where I'm aiming? Grrrrr.

[TrashMan]

Unlock the red-dot reflex sight.

Look down the sights.

And as trashman said, get a Reflexer x2, or the Trueshot 3.4, much better then the stock sights. I prefer the Reflexer on all my guns, but somertimes I break out the x6 for my SAW and frustrate snipers.

Oh, and just a heads up,  PS2 is one of those games where you need higher graphical settings to offload work to the GPU; lower graphics settings will actually hurt the CPU sometimes. Try to find a balance in the middle, and turn off shadows fully in the UserOptions.ini. (set it to 0)

[BengalTiger]

I use the 4x zoom on the SAW out in the open, and the 2x zoom red dot for everything else.

Also- NC players of Lithcorp, here's a little something that might get y'all interested:
Friday Night We Go Shootin' Stuff

[TrashMan]

Lithcorp? NC?

That's me.

Killing time.

[Aardwolf]

Yeah I can aim fine when I'm looking down the sights, but they can't expect me to play the whole game like that?



Btw I'm VS on Mallory, name is "AkenHBosch"

not sure why i picked Mallory to play on

[An4ximandros]

(...) Btw, I'm VS on Mallory, name is "AkenHBosch" (...)

 You alone realized that humanity had no future with the Republic. So you initiated the first phase of a new alliance with the Vanu. An alliance in which the future of humanity depends.

 I had to, Sorry.

Exclusively on HLP (at least for now):

'Epic fragment'?
You can skip the first 6 minutes of nothing and then have 2 minutes of washed out video quality with action in which it is very hard to see what is actually going on.

[TrashMan]

I couldn't play on Friday   

[BengalTiger]

The "Friday Night... " is going to be a weekly event.

@Spoon: We're mil-sim geeks, we don't enjoy fragfests, but rather plan an operation and then carry it out with a 4 to 1 kill ratio against 4 to 1 odds.

I might get the video in higher quality, the cameraman has a day off today.

[TrashMan]

Sounds like my kind of unit.
