Come on guys, game is unplayable now. Your new graphics engine is crap. You can't do that just before the great event. Please turn it off and resolve the problems. Then implement it after the event is over. Windwalker is right... fix it now because we can't buy planes if game doesn't work. Why would we buy them?
OK... after changing to min graphics playing at 60 to 100 FPS game is freezing in the middle of dog fighting... controls freeze for few seconds, lookaround while holding elevator and rudder just freezes in one position so while doing a vertical spiral I can't look at the enemy... I don't know what you changed in 1.95 but for me this game is done. I can't play it and you will fix nothing so bye bye. I have i3 8 GB ram and NVidia Gefoce GT710M. I could play easily on low settings before the patch.
Just tried the game on my sons i7 and it works perfect on max settings. I wonder how many players can't play the game any more because of the new clouds. I play this game for 5 years and have put in it 2.000 eurs by now and now I must buy a new computer? I don't think so. Thank you so much for your service gaijin. I'll try this game some day when I get new computer but I have a feeling that this game will go bye bye by then. What a shame.
I logged in recently and saw Chinese and Swedish and I'm like huh. I think War Gaming did a better job by adding a Pan-Euro and Pan-Asian line rather than as Gaijin has been forced to either add more theoreticals over actual vehicles(yea I know they have been doing that for a while). But it also allows them to build a line that's not dependent on unique rather than repeat vehicles.
So... for the 2 guys that might actually have read my posts in here... here's the update... I just bought lenovo gaming laptop i7 with GF1650 and 16 GB ram and 512 gb SSD... 1.200 eur... I don't know if I should thank gaijin or show them the finger... however I'm happy like a radio :-D... but seriuosly... your min settings for playing this marvelous game are way up now so it won't do any good to the players base... OK... let's see now... max settings... and gooo... merry christmas to everyone...
so when's the BR decompression update?
and when is the Chinese tech tree getting removed?
I want past version of postfx serting in 2018 or 2017
