I'd say whips will slow a marine team down by about one minute maximum (marines can snipe it using either range or peeking around corners), or warn of / prevent a sneak phase gate, but that's about it. There are better uses for resources imo.

I'm assuming there were multiple restarts between all of what you tried, so it wouldn't be an overheating issue. You didn't disable your pagefile did you? Did you install Windows 8 from scratch or on top of a 7 install? Is Steam (and NS2 itself) …

Yay I did my job for once

I find it odd that many things are loading multiple times in succession, even if they are only taking a few milliseconds each time. Eg: Loading 'fonts/agencyfb_smaller_bordered.fnt' : Line 251 and line 253. Wouldn't it already be loaded from before…

Shonan based on your performance I'm wondering whether both of your GPU cores are working together correctly when the game is run. In mid-October AMD released a profile set that held Crossfire profiles for NS2, not sure if they're part of the standa…

I'm fairly sure my 2.4GHz Core 2 Duo is cooled by others' 12 logical cores pissing all over it ;-) Call me crazy, but I prefer using the nVidia hardware monitor if I need to see temps. I'm getting 33/60CPU and a max of 70 on the overclocked GTX 46…

Your processor and GPU should be giving you something in the 30-50 fps range. Considering it's a quad-core with decent but not great clockspeed/caches, you'd likely be hitting the GPU bottleneck - the one you've got is unfortunately the king of the …

It's definitely still a huge priority. With the last patch some people experienced an extra 20fps bump overall, and many things that would normally slow the gameplay to a crawl (huge fights like you mentioned) are flowing much more smoothly. I was s…

I didn't get to stick around long enough to see it on Tuesday, but one thing that looks off to me is how close Biosphere and Water Processing are from each other. I remember Biodome marked by long walks between hive rooms where ambushes would not be…

Post the report so more than just the devs can see it!

blzd the CPU is the definite bottleneck. I know because I'm using an equivalent C2D E6600 but with a much slower GPU: GTX 460, and I'm getting about the same fps. The problem is not that he needs an overclocked i7, but that he needs a CPU that's no…

The OS uses a pagefile to store programs (etc.) that cannot fit on the RAM and may need to be loaded up quickly. If the OS is efficient and you don't have too many things running in the background, NS2 should be completely stored in the RAM whether …

So you've got a 6 year old CPU with only two cores in a game that's been optimized for more cores that are more efficient. And you've got a top-of-the-line GPU from about 4 years ago that can be beaten by today's midrange (GTX 650 will win against …

AMD has some profiles that you can download to make sure it recognized NS2 as a GPU-using game. These were released in mid-October right before the game went gold. I haven't kept up so I don't know if they're currently integrated … -
